@AskTheDevil here is a link to buy it directly from me on Etsy:

If you buy it from me on Etsy you have to pay shipping, but you will get it signed, if you buy it on Amazon you might not have to pay shipping but it won’t be signed. Amazon is pretty good to me so don’t feel bad about buying it from them.

All Manner of Beast & Man https://a.co/d/gjvwM3s

I contacted two local bookstores to see if they would carry my horror novella, All Manner of Beast & Man. I filled out their online forms but I also talked to the owners on the phone and it sounded promising. Last Friday I went to my local Barnes and Noble, but they told me they couldn’t do it, even though it was for sale on their website.

I am really proud of this book and I’m going to keep telling the world about it! Making some progress!

@bfgreen if you’re ever in the Boston area, hit me up.

@bfgreen I’m not sure I’ll be able to make it to tennessee in November but I’ll take it under consideration! That looks really cool. Thanks for the invite! Would be cool to chat at some point.

@bfgreen I’m glad you haven’t given up! I shared another smaller puzzle which I think might help.

@bfgreen here is a smaller clue from the book which I think is important to solve before tackling the big encryption. I am not sure what else I can do for this project but I will definitely consider this advice when creating a new puzzle. This is a tricky puzzle. Pay close attention to the clues. You will know when you have the answer.

@MLClark so true. Thanks for the kind words.

@MLClark thank you so much! I hope so too because I have a long way to go!

@MLClark congrats on your progress. I have been getting about 1k words a day in this past week. Hoping that it keeps up.

@kel I recently deleted every social media app off my phone except for Reddit and Coso. Never looking back.

@bfgreen thanks for checking it out either way!

@bfgreen I can understand that. This was a passion project of mine that involved a tremendous amount of work, from creating a code, designing a font, writing two stories, paying to get it edited etc. I’m not just selling a puzzle, I’m selling two fun stories to read. I guess the target audience isn’t quite that broad though. People who are really into the puzzle might not care for paying for the story, and people who are into the story won’t necessarily be into solving the puzzle. Oh well.

@rpardee I shared a code for free. Clues for solving it are in a book that’s for sale, if clues are wanted. But I assumed there were some crypto people who could do it without clues.

@bfgreen I wish there was a way of proving it without actually sharing the Python code.

@bfgreen I think people may have given up on solving my code. I had a decent amount of discussion on Reddit, but it has gone cold. I am worried that people don’t think it’s real.

@mikeflstfi wow! Stunning!

@Vikky 🤣

@NiveusLepus excellent trick.

@kel government will fund it so they can keep getting those criminal confessions.

@MPCavalier @Idissent @AskTheDevil @YouInMyEye @otter405 congrats!
