~ the book ~

Hi! I'm a dad of two in Denmark. I spent a year writing a book: 150 pages of true fiction. Action, sorrow, humor, and a hero.

Then I printed it. Once.

There is no second copy, no ebook and no PDF, and there never will be. So naturally the book needed a shrine. This is it.

The kids' review: "Dad, look... you wrote a book." (They have not read it either.)

The shrine opens its doors. Built by hand, the old way, for the good people of Neocities.

Hid a secret message on a cipher card for r/codes. Someone cracked it in under an hour. Respect. They also said it was boring. Also respect.

Made an enormous bookmark. The book did not ask for this.

~ FAQ ~

Can I read it?
Only if you own it. Or if the owner lets you.

Why only one copy?
Because every reader becomes the reader.

Is it an NFT?
No. It's paper. You can drop it on your foot.

Is this a joke?
The book is real, the single copy is real. The shrine is mostly a joke.
