"Smart and smarting with several laugh out loud moments...4.8 out of 5 stars" - IndieReader

Starry Night. Crime and Punishment. WrestleMania X-Seven.

Have you ever pondered where works of art like these come from? Have you ever marveled at a beautiful simile, a clever metaphor, a kick-ass piledriver? Have you ever wondered how mere mortals create moments of such transcendence?

The short answer? They can't. Not without some help.

Enter the Department of Inspirations, the heavenly bureaucracy in charge of inspiring human artistic achievement. From Van Gogh to Vince McMahon, the Department's agents have inspired many of your most famous creators, imbuing their work with hidden moral messages that have helped your species grow from a weak-willed marsupial offshoot into one that's at least occasionally ethical.

But if you hadn't noticed, times are changing.

The social media revolution is drowning you. Feeds of relentlessly optimized content are catering to your most aggressive and marsupial instincts. You're too busy retweeting hot takedowns and stirring up messy Facebook drama to experience transcendence, let alone contemplate hidden moral messages.

You're so far gone that G., the manic deity who runs Inspirations, has decided to ditch the dream of human enlightenment in favor of a new one: complacency. But this decision has only quickened humanity's apocalyptic spiral.

Now Agent Zeke, a low-level bureaucrat in the Department, must warn you - or at least apologize - before it's too late.
