"THIS AFFLICTION AFFECTS 1 OUT OF 5 AMERICANS. The other 4 have no f***ing clue how to cope with the usually invisible agony that their loved ones endure, which would make a book like this helpful to them too, and therefore 5 OUT OF 5 AMERICANS COULD USE THIS BOOK. That's a lot."
—Elijah Mallick, Author of A SELF-HELP BOOK ABOUT ANXIETY

As SELF-PROCLAIMED “RETIRED NOVELIST” ELIJAH MALLICK approaches thirty, he desperately emerges from his retirement in hopes of curing his anxiety by writing A Self-Help Book About Anxiety. Not surprisingly, like a panic attack itself, the book spirals quickly out of control into not only an exploration of anxiety, but of its root causes, coping mechanisms, accompanying consequences, relationships, modern dating, and identity, which forms a humorous and heartbreaking look at existence as a whole.
All this paired with the simple illustrated fable AT THE BOTTOM OF THE ORCHARD, which serves as a palate cleanser that reminds us to not only chase our dreams – gently, peacefully – but also to take it all in and ENJOY.
"FONT'S WRITING IS SO DEEPLY AWARE THAT IT PISSES ME OFF. The way he's able to put his neuroses into words becomes a mirror of your own s***. And that's why he's great."
—Charlene deGuzman, Writer/Star of UNLOVABLE
"FONT HAS THOSE ORSON WELLES VIBES. As a Wells myself I’m actually more of a Chaplin.”
—Noël Wells, Writer/Director of MR. ROOSEVELT
