About this ebook
Just to write down a bunch of scattered stories seems like an easy enough task. But what if there were restrictions imposed at times to make the whole thing a bit more challenging (for author and reader both)... What if every line of script has to occupy an exact length so that shapes will be formed... lines... ascending... or descending... or dropping straight down vertically... What if the reader has to carefully select the font to view the shapes created... (Spoiler: any monospaced will do, and as far as the shapes are concerned, it's no great mystery, just a bunch of rectangles & trapezoids) See... I'm already breaking all the marketing rules and leave nothing to the imagination...
Oh, and furthermore, some special characters are included that resemble letters which makes the whole thing more fun or maybe infuriating (depending on the reader). Some great gaps will also appear between letters (it's designed that way). I'm guessing you're already starting to get intrigued. Just look at it as if it were a game and not just a book.
Also, important to remember: Your device is not broken! I cannot stress this enough. Fear nothing, all is explained inside.
Anyway, here's a sample so you can get an idea of what the book is like. Then, go buy it. Or not; either way is fine.
a [ soul ] is an [ S ]
an S is not inside the body
it's not even close 2 the heart
it is however *cough*
connected with the heart
with a bit paper clip [staple]
at the end of a long thin string
trapped inside a hovering hexagonal kite
sometimes the air is windy
hence, the kite pulls the heart
and the clip tends to tighten a bit
this results in heart bleeding
OR heart suffering if u will

i am not sorry
but i am still sick
i am here but i am < not >
i choose reluctantly 2 B this way
so i can always keep fucking it all up
( s i g h * OR * s o b * i n t e r l u d e )
this little emotion overload (it's come over me agn)
it always comes & goes in huge waves (which undoubtedly i create)
& killing this clone is throwing dust under the carpet (it will come up agn)
i need u much more than u could ever know (i am always hiding)
and it's still killing me every single time (it does)
i do not wish 2 relapse anymore in this spiral
i cannot make any promises i never keep
i can only hope 4 a better morrow
