About this ebook
You're going down... In fact you're at an all-time low. You need help, because the only way you can get back up is by taking the advice of a professional.
Your story... your downfall... told from your own perspective, in verse form, and from the perspective of your 'consultant', in prose...
Warning... don't try this at home...!
In Decline , by Stanski, is basically a collection of poetic passages that follow a similar theme; that of decline... declining standards, declining attitudes, declining natural conditions... The concepts, introduced in verse format, are backed-up and supported by passages of prose, to form a 'case history', which attempts to explain the downfall of the 'client' ( who, on the one hand, could be an individual person, or society in general, and on the other, the planet we inhabit, or the whole of creation...).
The metaphors will be applied and interpreted, and the questions raised will continue long after the 'consultation' has ended...

A one... A two... A one, two, three, four...! How’s that then, for a classic intro...? But wait a minute... That’s more of a song intro, innit...? And this is more of a story, innit...? So, let’s start again, shall we...? Hi... How are you...? I’m Stanski... Now, don’t worry, I’m not as bad as I seem... I’m a strugling author... Not a tortured artist...! The thing is, I’ve written these books...For people to read... Do you like reading...? Everyone loves a good read, don’t they..? Anyway, I’ve got these books... That I’ve written... I know, you don’t know which books... I’m just getting round to telling you about them, aren’t I...? The thing is... If you want something doing... You might as well do it for yourself... So... I wrote these books myself... Now... These books... Y’know... The ones I’ve written... But haven’t got round to telling you about yet... These books that I’ve written... That I’m telling you about now... Will be available, very soon, for you to download... From Smashwords... To your PC, Tablet, or Mobile Phone...! In fact, pretty much anything connected to the internet...! Thanks to the miracle of modern technology...! It never ceases to amaze... Does it...? A Bit Of Background Stanski is the kind of guy who doesn’t do things by half measures. For example, he’s the guy who went to Thailand in 1999, to see in the New Millennium. He enjoyed it there so much that he decided to stay on for a while. He didn’t return to the UK until October... October 2010...! Stanski began writing in earnest in 2005 while recovering from a motorcycle accident, in the northern city of Chiangmai, in which he sustained serious head injuries. Since then, he has completed four novels, and is currently writing a fifth. Examples of verse by Stanski can be found on his Blog, ‘Elephant Small’ www.says-sir-ten.blogspot.com
