“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Tuesday night. Jane wrote her feelings down for the day, as usual. They’re on file. We went over them this morning. Their contents are embodied in the two papers that are reproduced below; the first one, from the library, she received before placing a call to The Village Voice; the second, from Seth, came through after she made that call, and called a few people about visiting us next Friday night.

(After finishing the library material, Jane called The Village Voice on impulse, but ended up feeling she didn’t do well: She didn’t get to speak to Jim Poett, who was not there, or to his editor. She asked a friend of JP’s to have him send her tear sheets of his last two articles, which I thought an excellent idea. The friend, also a reporter, mentioned the Middle of Silence people to Jane, which she didn’t like, although she learned things. Jane also gave the reporter our phone number, which she regretted doing later. I said I thought it better that she did follow the impulse, though, since anything, any action, was probably better than sitting immobile.

(Today, also, Jane walked around the bed—although touching it—on two separate occasions.)
