"I never asked for friendship, yet you gave it to me." An introvert who likes to go outdoors. An extrovert who's friends with one person at a time. Summer's daytime lasts longer than the night, inviting everyone out to play. Sabito, a child who's lived through tragedy and neglect for his seven years of life, enjoys spending time in the playground built within his apartment complex. An orphaned child who lives with an aunt who can't be bothered to take care of him. Despite having a lazy aunt who can do nothing but suck the life out of a lit cigarette, Sabito's independence is greater than the typical seven-year-old child. Thanks to his father's teachings before that disaster, he can scrape by each day --alone. Unable to let go of the past and his deceased parents, Sabito becomes absorbed into his own mind, survivors guilt weighing down his small shoulders. As a prisoner of his own thoughts, he sits on the swings and tries to forget about the responsibilities he faces when the clock reads 'home time'. Squeals and shouts from other children make his hands move to his ears, but he can't block out the happiness in the air. Happiness comes looking for him. Valerie, the polar opposite of Sabito's reserved, sophisticated demeanour, comes along to unlock the naive side of a matured brain. As she begins to show him the world in colour, a friendship develops between the two. Best friends forever are what they say. Keyword: Forever. Content: Mentions of death/suicide

SAMPLE OF PUBLISHED BOOK THAT WAS FIRST WRITTEN ON WATTPAD. Fletcher was nothing more than a humble blacksmith's apprentice, when a chance encounter leads to the discovery that he has the ability to summon demons from another world. Chased from his village for a crime he did not commit, he must travel with his demon to the Vocans Academy, where the gifted are trained in the art of summoning. The academy will put Fletcher through a gauntlet of gruelling lessons, training him as a battlemage to fight in the Hominum Empire's war against the savage orcs. Rubbing shoulders with the children of the most powerful nobles in the land, Fletcher must tread carefully. The power hungry Forsyth twins lurk in the shadows, plotting to further their family's interests. Then there is Sylva, an elf who will do anything she can to forge an alliance between her people and Hominum, even if it means betraying her friends. Othello is the first ever dwarf at the academy, and his people have long been oppressed by Hominum's rulers, which provokes tension amongst those he studies alongside. Fletcher will find himself caught in the middle of powerful forces, with nothing but his demon Ignatius to help him. As the pieces on the board manoeuvre for supremacy, Fletcher must decide where his loyalties lie. The fate of an empire is in his hands ...
