    About this ebook

    Sitting by the ocean and watching the sun set seems like a great way to unwind after a long stressful day, until the second hand pot smoke and weird flying disk get involved.

    I am an artist and am trying to raise funds for an art gallery that would also double as a social and community hub as well. The goal is to be able to have a place where new aspiring artist and writers can share their work freely. Purchasing this ebook is a step towards making that happen.
