    About this ebook

    You're coming down with a cold. A bad cold.

    The cold just keeps getting worse, or so you think.

    When you end up in a hospital surrounded by men in white coats, you wonder if maybe if it's all just a nightmare.

    Except you can't seem to wake up.

    ---

    This download also features a preview of the author's forthcoming novel, THE DEAD MEN.

    Thomas Phillips

    I am a computer scientist and polymath, who, like many of my ilk, has numerous interests spanning both the creative and the technical. By creative, I mean implicated in the creation of novel works, some aesthetic and some not. By technical, I mean describing or derived from formal systems. My primary interests are language, computation, representation, and music.
