Exactly a year ago, this book cracked my egg. I don't really know how to put into words the things that I felt back then without running into a language barrier real fast but it's been a long yet beautiful year and I wanted to say thank you so, so much.
would there be any way of seeing an actual content warning list? this sounds amazing but there are certain things that are too triggering for me to read - and I'm not sure what this contains.
I discovered your work through a game design class in college. I played With Those We Love Alive and felt emotionally affected in a way no other game thus far has made me feel. As I looked more into the things you have written I discovered Psycho Nymph Exile. I was instantly intrigued by the description and eventually purchased and read it. I finished it in a day and the experience of reading it changed me. It is a book that touches on emotions and experiences that I haven't found in much else, dealing with pain and hurt as well as love and tenderness in ways that made me very intensely feel. It helped me get the courage to come out to my father, and despite how hard it was I still have the strength to keep going. I'm going to be sharing this with my book club soon, and I'm excited to reread it having been through that experience. Thank you, and I am hoping for a better world.
Favorite book of the year this was published, when I was having a monthslong manic episode and back to back psychotic spirals. There is nothing like a work of fiction that can stretch to meet the amount of lurking paranoia and social horror your mind generates, to show the worst things in the world happening and then drag on still alive, and taking you with it, letting that horror texture reality instead of ripping holes in it. Thank you.
I'm glad that texture could be there for you. I was fairly psychotic when I wrote it, so that makes sense. thanks for reading and sharing what it meant to you 💜
Playing around with Craiyon, I thought it would be interesting to see what would happen if I plugged in your AEON-generated text (That was always my favorite part of the book).

i don't do content warnings but it probably contains every possible trigger. good luck!
thank you so much for getting back to me!
