+> A book?
+
+Yes.
+
+> Why?
+
+<!--more-->
+
+A question I struggle with just as much as you.
+
+> Obviously. Best guess, then.
+
+Best guess, this project has become important to me and integral to my writing in a way that I can't really express without waxing maudlin about writing <a class="pulse" href="/writing">again</a>. It's something I've poured time and love and blood and sweat and tears into. I'm proud of it.
+
+> Is it not enough as it stands?
+
+It's great as it stands. It's just that I'd also love to see this as a production that I can show to others. Something I can see on others' bookshelves. Something I can maybe see in a bookstore.
+
+> Why the struggle, then? Why not just publish it and accept your pride?
+
+Who am I to say my life is interesting enough to put in front of other people's eyes? How can I possibly suggest that my words are worth reading when they are about things that impact so very few people?
+
+Like, *Restless Town* was something that I was proud of, but I didn't have this compunction because there are more trans people than just myself, more poly folks than just myself, more furries than just me. Ditto *Rum and Coke*.
+
+> And **Eigengrau**?
+
+Poetry --- at least much of that poetry --- is more universal than even the stories in *Restless Town*.
+
+> This is about gender, poly, and furry. Must the whole book be applicable to be enjoyed?
+
+No, I suppose not.
