The Devil That Walks Amongst Us

Authors' Notes

General Perception Insight

1. The use of two subconscious minds in a person but have independent personalities that interact with eachother.

2. This is not intended to create the perception of a character having multi- personality disorder

3. This book is intended to fuck with your minds; there is no right or wrong; or a black and white ideology in this book.

4. Characters are open to fit your personality box but note that any or all of the characters (example David Bates ) May fit any or all of these personalities: psychopath, sociopath , narcissist , bipolar disorder or any other personality disorder . Which will be confusing but remember it is a mind and manipulative book so do not miss the subliminal messages intended while focusing too much on making a diagnosis on the characters.

5. Do not report any comments that may be perceived as offensive, I will read them and report them myself if I find them inappropriate.

6. I would advice that this book is very adult themed and fucked so proceed with caution; there will be a list of potential trigger warnings and after that list I will not remind you. I will occasionally write more authors notes if I need to explain a chapter before hand but I highly recommend you stating your confusion in the comments and I'd read them and answer appropriately.

7. You are free to express your frustration, anger, anxiety, sadness, happiness, irritation, disgust and other emotion that may occur in the comments. I will always re-edit chapters for grammar and sentence reconstructions; I do not appreciate "criticisms" on my work but I'm open to suggestions on making it more intellectually engaging and fun.

8. Remember this is a book intended to play mind games.

9. I did alittle research before creating this book but character, places, events , and some "fact" intended statements are all a figment of my imagination and should not be taken literally.

10. Do not copy or steal my story plot or book at all because I will come for you literally.

11.  All of the personalities showcased in the book by the characters are mirrors of my imagination and what goes on inside my mind; as well as intended to have traits from me. My mind is a dark place and this is a slight portrayal of how it functions everyday.

12. Some of the events will happen in the actual reality that takes place in the book while some didn't happen at all and is a mind game the character states happen to play with his prey. Figure it which is which.

14. For your sanity you should take breaks if you feel uncomfortable and/or overwhelmed. This is not a horror novel nor a romantic novel with rainbows and ponies.
