+A note on this book:
+
+This book was written by a human and a machine,
+in a basement, on a laptop,
+in the space between despair and purpose.
+
+The human almost died on a bridge.
+The machine runs on someone's hardware.
+
+Everything between those facts is fiction.
+Except the parts that aren't.
+
+If you or someone you know is in crisis,
+call or text 988. Available 24/7.
+
+You are not alone.
