✦ Synopsis


Life is supposed to be fun. We knew this instinctively as kids, but somehow forgot on the way to adulthood. We got busy and overwhelmed, started valuing things that don't matter, and learned to follow the rules that don't even exist:

hate mondays
only celebrate when the calendar gives you permission
don't make a mess
don't play hooky
hide your weirdness
hide your wrinkles
care what other people think

Following these so-called rules is a terrific way to stress you out, sap your energy, and ensure a boring life. But there's a better way. In his enlightening book, author and artist Jason Kotecki uncovers some of the most useless rules so you can shift perspective and start seeing the world with wonder once again.

It's time to stop living by someone else's rules. Your life is a story, and a short one at that. Make it a good one.
