Status Updates From Dear Friend, From My Life I...

I wrote a self reflection on the first chapter and shared it with Claude for craft review and Claude told me to call the suicide hotline so I think this book is probably pretty good

“I have to live in my own cautionary tale. Some people seek victory in that tale, others escape, yet others peace. I still do not know what I want from mine, but one hopes that to accept not knowing, for the time being, is better than to accept nothing.”

“One may also have a less complicated relationship with a book. The book is timeless; one has only to account for one’s own changing in time.
To be more than one, to be several, and to live with the consequence, is inevitable.”

That one's words would be misinterpreted seemed to me as inevitable as death itself.
