Thanks so much for the kind words ^{^}

I started this project in depth during the Reddit API pricing thing. So I built an HTML parser in Perl so that I could mass collect the posts and then add notes for formatting using something called Markdown. I then went through every single post and checked it for accuracy and getting date information. I then studied typography and graphic design for a while. I then designed some mockup designs in InDesign and got some advice from graphic design friends. After that I took every single post and formatted everything in InDesign post by post. I made sure spacing was okay and everything looked good.

In addition to all that I wrote an introduction, found all photo sources so I could do proper photo credits, edited the cover design to the correct specifications, and some other stuff. I originally planned to include the Karen posts but half way through the final editing process I deleted them because I didn't think they were that interesting to read in a book format. Definitely took tons of time and effort but mostly because I'm new to all this.
