+# Book Release: Musings from Within
+
+I am happy to announce that I have successfully created an eBook compilation of
+the best of the posts on this blog plus a bunch of writing I have never before
+made public, and the result is now available for purchase on
+[itch.io](https://withinstudios.itch.io/musings-from-within) and the Kindle
+Store (TODO(Xe): add kindle link here when it gets approved) for USD$5. This
+book is the product of 5 years of effort writing, getting better at writing,
+failing at writing and everything inbetween.
+
+I have collected the following essays, poems, recipes and stories:
+
+- Against Label Permanence
+- A Letter to Those Who Bullied Me
+- All There is is Now
+- Alone
+- Barrier
+- Bricks
+- Chaos Magick Debugging
+- Chicken Stir Fry

+- Instant Pot Quinoa Taco Bowls
+- Instant Pot Spaghetti
+- I Put Words on this Webpage so You Have to Listen to Me Now
+- I Remember
+- It Is Free
+- Listen to Your Rubber Duck
+- MrBeast is Postmodern Gold
+- My Experience Cursing Out God
+- Narrative of Sickness
+- One Day
+- Plurality-Driven Development
+- Practical Kasmakfa

+
+Most of these are available on this site, but a good portion of them are not
+available anywhere else. There's poetry about shamanism, stories about
+reincarnation, koans and more.
+
+I am also uploading eBook files to my [Patreon](https://patreon.com/cadey) page,
+anyone who supports me for $1 or more has [immediate
+access](https://www.patreon.com/posts/39825969)
+to the DRM-free ePub, MOBIPocket and PDF files of this book.
+
+If you are facing financial difficulties, want to read my book and just simply
+cannot afford it, please [contact me](/contact) and I will send you my book free
+of charge.
+
+Feedback and reviews of this book are more than welcome. If you decide to tweet
+or toot about it, please use the hashtag `#musingsfromwithin` so I can collect
+them into future updates to the description of the store pages, as well as
+assemble them below.
+
+Enjoy the book! My hope is that you get as much from it as I've gotten from
+writing these things for the last 5 or so years. Here's to five more. I'll
+likely create another anthology/collection of them at that point.
