Makes sense. I remember the first page of Chapter ten was some vaguely witty title and then a page of dialogue about the nature of the title between three different people. I thought it was quite decent.

This is actually a great idea. This would make so much sense. We could even open this up to all boards to get different perspectives. So each chapter could revolve around a different board. It would probably become a behemoth though. Please bring this up again in the future after the furor of this turd has died down.

Also, it would be great because it would be impossible to distinguish between what's real and what's not. Kind of like, you guessed it, 4chan. Honestly, I'm in love with this idea.

Well it isn't finished yet. There are still tons of edits awaiting. The version that's on lulu right now has stuff like "edit this" or "someone fill in the word" or just whitespace for missing words in it.

I'll wait until it's actually done.

>>5419675 When it's finished we certainly should (by unusual ways though - not by buying some google ads).

>>5421115 Are you gonna add the cover ? Still waiting for librarian status so I can't do that now. (>>5420767 got the cover)
Also is it possible to edit the ISBN later on ? Because by now it's the one of the unfinished book.
