If anyone is interested, I recently started a Q&A group, ending March 18, on Goodreads. There is also a book giveaway going on too. Stop by if you're interested.

Every decent man is ashamed of the government he lives under - Mencken
I've got a couple subscribers. I'd love to have more.
I'm sorry, but the title is really phonetically unappealing.
Wheylous:I'm sorry, but the title is really phonetically unappealing.
Is this meant to be serious? What does that even mean?
I don't really have a question at the moment but I thought I'd drop in and say I finished it a month or so ago and really enjoyed it. The only criticisms I have off the top of my head was that on occasion you seemed to drop into unnecessary simile, perhaps even purple prose, that made me groan a little. Secondly, though this is probably confirmation bias, sometimes I felt you were beating the reader over the head with the concepts but it's impossible for me to know since I was already a "true believer" before I started reading.
Otherwise, thanks for the book; I'll try to get around to leaving a review at some point but I might need a refresher (already) to make sure I don't screw it up.
BiPolarMoment:Secondly, though this is probably confirmation bias, sometimes I felt you were beating the reader over the head with the concepts but it's impossible for me to know since I was already a "true believer" before I started reading.
That could be an interesting topic to bring up.
Thanks for the read! Hope to see you at the Q&A.
