The Quagga Project was to have been the follow up to the original Totalitarianism, it reached a grand total of 98 pages before being abandoned. It's actually more cohesive and narrative-driven than TLOTIAT: the quagga remained a constant motif along the book and the gist of the "plot" had something to do about this Speides guy -a detective- and his wacky shenanigans in Miami while, simultaneously, a mysterious plan to bring back the quagga is put in motion.

The project was met with heavy resistance by anons who percieved it as a low-quality knockoff of TLOTIAT, among other things, the doc got erasen several times and certain letters were replaced by others in numerous occasions.

The thing died down after some internet terrorist wrote a script that erased the whole document every few seconds. Work was halted because of this and the whole project was soon ditched.

After the whole quagga debacle, the next attempt at a followup to TLOTIAT (other than Stallion's irrelevant attempt) was Kolsti's, during its writing interest on the quagga book arose again, a few more additions were made in this period of time but nothing substantial. Once more, interest died down.

After that, the quagga became somewhat of a meme and that's pretty much what it is now: a meme and a ghost book.

I have the whole thing archived in case /lit/ wants to revisit the book someday. For the time being, you can read the thing here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MgrH3JqK5Ws47KHLerVPjY-hLpbah8qtIbYrlhEjEdo/edit?usp=sharing

This is as closest as you get to writing a literary masterpiece.

It still exists, it's almost 100 pages long.

I'll unlock it for edition if there's enough interest.

It was suggested that it be divided into several docs: one for general prose, one for poetry, one for plays, a misc one, one for greentexts and one for memes.
