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.
