@NewJerseyTom it could also be a condition called Crawling Skin Syndrome. I had a Maine Coon who developed it and it presented like seizures too and then one night she just went completely limp and wouldn't stop screaming. First thing in the morning I took her in and had her put to sleep. A few years later this cat started having them too. After blood tests and things it was found that she had cancer and fluid build up on her lungs. I thought I was just taking her in for a cough and ended up having to come home without her. I had her for 14yrs and it damn near killed me. I was so horribly depressed. My cat now is thankfully healthy but I need to get him in for a check up soon.

When you say arguments about the book. What do you mean by that?
@hellocupcakeitsmeАй бұрын
@queerdor well literally just that. It's caused some arguments between people. I've mentioned before that where I expected getting support im not and where I never expected to have support I've gotten it. There's been arguments over deadlines. Over editing. Arguments with my editor. Arguments with the publisher. Augments with family. One of the people who walked out of my life back in August, we had an argument over my book in general, and they were pissed because they too were writing a book and couldn't belive how "easy" it was for me to shoot past them and how they were struggling and put a lot of their shortcomings on me. Even though I was showing them step by step what I was doing. The resources I had found etc. That wasn't the reason they walked out on our friendship. But there's just be a lot of hostility and anger and negativity that I've not talked about because I don't want that energy in my life, in my book, in my social media, nor anything else I do. So talking about it I feel gives it the ability to take root and stay longer. But most of my recent depression has come from those things I'm not talking about on my platforms. I'm pretty transparent in most of my stuff, but I keep A LOT to myself too.

If I could do it and it was recycled and a covered spine and wouldn't significantly increase printing price then id go for it.
