    This is my own adaption/in the style of Martin Niemöller who wrote the poem 'First they came...' . His poem was written at the time of WW2. He realises that he never stood up for any groups being prosecuted and when they came for him, there was no one left to speak for him. In this, I raise more recent issues as well as exploring why they happen. Check out my profile for more poetry.

    The written novel is cancelled. I feel that a graphic novel is the best way to go with this one.

    In a dystopian version of London, tiny humans known as dolls are bought, sold, and displayed like collectibles-stripped of their rights and humanity. Behind glass and beneath glittering lights, their pain is hidden beneath carefully curated perfection. Sixteen-year-old Nyah has spent years in a store, forced into the role of a ballerina and silenced by fear. With her twin brothers at her side, she awaits the day someone will choose them-dreading what comes next. But when they're purchased by Luca, a quiet, grunge-loving teenager with grief in his past and kindness in his actions, Nyah begins to question everything she's been taught about humans, love, and survival. As Nyah adjusts to a new kind of life, she encounters others-both dolls and humans-who blur the lines between cruelty and care, freedom and control. But danger is never far. In a world designed to keep dolls obedient, the cost of resistance is high, and trust can be deadly. With tensions rising and secrets unraveling, Nyah must decide whether to protect the fragile peace she's found-or risk everything for a chance at something more.

    They call her many things. Poacher's bane. Night Lady. Artemis. Diana. Ranger's friend. She doesn't care for what they call her. Her only concern is for the innocents of the planet. Warning: this story is gonna be very bloody.

    Dems' Only Hope: Socialism or Something Bold is a timely, provocative exploration of the Democratic Party's struggle to define its future. Since the Obama years, Democrats have wrestled with identity and direction. Too often, corporate-aligned candidates and cautious, incremental policies have left voters disillusioned, uninspired, and disconnected from the party's original promises. Meanwhile, grassroots progressives and young voters are pushing for something far more transformative - a vision rooted in fairness, justice, and people-centered policies often dismissed as "socialist." In this bold and uncompromising book, [Your Name] argues that the Democratic Party's only path to survival - and true leadership - lies in embracing progressive, socialism-inspired solutions. From universal healthcare to climate action, from economic justice to grassroots organizing, the book makes the case that Democrats must move beyond outdated playbooks and corporate ties if they are to mobilize voters and win lasting change. Drawing on case studies like New York's Zohran Mamdani and the rise of leaders such as Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, this book illustrates how bold policies can energize movements, expand the electorate, and secure the future of the party. Dems' Only Hope is not just a critique; it is a roadmap. It challenges Democrats to abandon fear, embrace boldness, and reclaim the values of fairness, equity, and opportunity that once defined them. For activists, strategists, and engaged citizens, this book offers a clear-eyed vision of what's at stake - and what's possible - if Democrats are willing to take the leap.

    I write whatever that comes to mind. There will be poetry and one liners and speeches and everything. 100% original of course. This is my first time trying to write but I would really appreciate positive criticism. Cheers!
