“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(11:43 P.M. An aside: Lately I’d delayed typing these sessions from my notes because I’ve been so busy doing the finished pen-and-ink drawings for Jane’s Dialogues. Currently I’m working on the 12th one out of the 40 planned. Jane hasn’t had a book session to read since the 718th, for November 6, was held almost four weeks ago. Now she reminded me that she misses keeping up with Seth’s dictation — that she has trouble deciphering my personal shorthand, and that not knowing what Seth has been saying makes her feel “uneasy.” This even though she and Seth have demonstrated often by now that as a team they’re most capable of producing a work “blind,” as it were, and on a continuing basis. But I’d become so involved with artwork that I hadn’t appreciated her own interests and concerns.

(During the whole of last month [October] Jane also had to go without reading a block of sessions [708–15] in Section 4; I used the time I’d have spent typing them to complete the diagrams for Adventures. Tonight we decided, then, that from my notes I’d begin reading to her the four sessions following the 718th. Once we were caught up I’d read her the Seth material received each week on the succeeding Saturday or Sunday until I got back to the twice-weekly routine of transcribing, early next year; I expect to do the last of the Dialogues illustrations late in January 1975.)
