It’s currently only available in ebook, on my Ko-Fi and Patreon. Hopefully sooner than later I’ll be in a position to order physical copies to send out.</p><p>For now, though, I’m just trying to meet my family’s basic needs (shelter, food, and meds) so I’d appreciate if anyone decides to get the book or simply buy me a coffee (on Ko-Fi).
