this screen hit an iceberg and is now sinking

on the next screenshot, we see we have some troubles
with orphans. many reader-programs have this flaw,
and there isn't a whole lot we can do to avoid it, but
what we see here is that bad omen i mentioned earlier.

chapter 2 starts right beneath it, and thus exacerbates
the orphan. a new chapter should start on a new screen,
to wash away any memory of an orphan right before it.

and, of course, we have the chapter-title which doesn't
look like it's a title, the overbearing all-caps "chapter",
and the embarrassing drop-cap too. not to mention the
spacey paragraphs. in addition, we have an invitation
which is not formatted nicely, as it was in the p-book...

so all in all, this screen is pretty much a disaster.
