[update]
it took all of 5 minutes of this posting to create a few problems and for that I need to apologize. in the original shot, I was unaware that the text was readable. it was. the screenshot was from an earlier version – one with the actual names of people I knew. they have since been changed [long before this little fuck-up of mine] and I do apologize for any damage done.

see that? that’s a book. I wrote that. a few people have said ‘it’s a pretty good book’, but they’re my pals and they have to say that. it’s just about done, as well. the screenshot is from a fancy program that I don’t know how to use, but my typesetter does. I hope you like it, because I’m quite ready to be done with it.
even Churchill admitted to what a beast one book can become:
‘writing a book is an adventure. to begin with, it is a toy and an amusement; then it becomes a mistress, and then it becomes a master, and then a tyrant. the last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster, and fling him out to the public.’
and brother, I do agree. for anyone who’s ever written a book, I applaud you… you sick, sick masochist.
anyway.
I say all that to day that in a few weeks, the pre-sale begins, which should be fun, but to tide you over [you 8 people who plan on buying it], next Friday, I’m going to throw the first chapter [cleverly entitled 'intro'] up here for free. download it. let me know what you think. unless it’s bad and then keep that from me forever. but if you do like it, feel free to share it.
okay? okay. cool. thanks.
