This book comes in at 12,763 words over 74 pages.

Most of it will be posted over the course of this summer as I pursue history and fiction.

Dust Cover

As America seemed—according to the media—to be losing its collective mind, the author, an ostracized weirdo writing and coaching and strolling through the long-ago criminalized anarcho-tyranny zone of Baltimore, Maryland, took the occasional time out to note Reality, to muse on a gray disparity, correspond with readers through an occasional ether window, and otherwise attempt to sketch life outside of a media filter. In the following journal find the impressions of a news-free mind from within a notorious crime-scape seemingly adrift beyond the media mind.
