The drawing on the cover of Ratology database

 Why is this psychotic rat (aka I) so happy? 
 
The answer is in the title of the book Ratology database.

As a researcher, I love data. I am a data freak. Though I'd prefer not to be the contributor of the data, there is nothing wrong to find them data precious.

Be happy, ratprincess!

The drawing on the cover of Ratology Evolutions: My Psychotic Mental Model of My Psychosis

This drawing, inspired by Chagall's style, is on the cover of my model book Ratology Evolutions: My Psychotic Mental Model of My Psychosis.  


The little houses on the ground represent the thoughts emerged throughout the years. Futile attempts you might say. Yet, on the upper leftside of the drawing, we see ratprincess flying to reach a star.  The star is the ultimate goal--the building of my own model of how my psychosis works. 


My model is, like the drawing, imperfect and some might consider it appallingly atrocious. However it might be judged; I've done my due diligence and got the star. 




The drawing on the cover of Blows

I drew this in the psychiatric ward, which is in the building of the New York Psychiatric Institute.

There are two ratprincesses in this drawing. One sits on a rainbow below the walker while the other, locked up in a purple cage. In the background is the view of the Jersey shore across the Hudson River.

I find it to be a perfect drawing for the book Blows because I was in excruciating pain with a walker in the psychiatric ward.

The drawing on the cover of Broadened Horizons

Broadened Horizons is a book addressing the topic of psychotic onsets.

Artistic am I not though I did draw this picture in the psychiatric ward.

Take a look at ratprincess. Where she stands now is everything familiar and shared with others--a house with chimney, mountains behind the house, a rainbow, clouds in the sky. and the sun. 
 
With a basket in hand, ratprincess is getting ready to cross over the river to pick up something new whilst not shared with the others. Her psychosis.

The original URL of Down with Meds--A Revelation of Ratology

After I deleted my old blog "Down with Meds--A Revelation of Ratology" due to the command of my delusions and hallucinations, the URL for the blog became unavailable. Then, in 2011, I found out it was available again and grabbed it immediately.

 http://ratology.blogspot.com/


An abridged and proofed version of the old blog is in the Ratology Database book.

Ratology Books are finally out in both eBook and paperback formats

Because I could not find publishers to publish my books, I decided to publish my books by myself through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.


It was not a process as easy as I had imagined, partially because I kept finding errors of all sorts. Also, every time I made a change, I would have to wait for at least 24 hours for the changes to show up or to make further modifications. 


At some point, my head decided that it is good enough and I don't have to find faults in my books no more.


Please click on https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B0BGCZWR58 to check out my personal profile and my books. And if you wish, please purchase a book or two or the entire series. I would suggest the ebooks since it is more environmentally friendly. Your purchase would be totally appreciated.  :-D


Following are my Author page and the page for my series "Mad Pride: the Revelation of my Psychosis."


Author page





So, I can finally claim now that I am a writer who has published a series of 4 books.


The question is, in order to help people, people have to read my books. So far, 0 copies sold. lol :-X
