In life, there are two perspectives on every story, usually two opposing mindsets to every situation. One side is positive, bright and full of hope and the other side is usually negative, dark and filled with despair. It just all depends on the person's past experience with the deciding viewpoint. Meet December Hail, an ordinary girl who believes that love was invented by desperate, lonely human beings who wanted to find something worth living for in life than just simply living. Meet her polar opposite, Finn Carico, a hopelessly romantic boy who believes that love is one the greatest feelings in the world and that without love human civilization cannot survive, let alone flourish. Follow Finn into the gloomy somber abyss of December's mind as he struggles to change her perspective on love.

NOW A PUBLISHED BOOK!! Centuries have passed since the Wars. In the beginning it was hatred and greed that filled the leaders of the old world, fueling them to take up arms against neighboring countries. Nations went to war against one another and soon all forms of government fell as chaos took over, leaving everyone to fend for themselves. Soon, mankind's destructive nature took over and left the majority of the world in ruin. Those that were left were quick to blame who was behind the demise of civilization itself. Over time, women gathered and began to believe that it was men who were responsible as they are temperate and quick to act on anger. But men blamed women who would deceive and manipulate them. This ultimately caused one last battle known as the Great War, causing thousands of fatalities until there was hardly anyone left. It was then that the few leaders that were left, now known as the High Kings and Queens, made a pact to never repeat the past. Men and women would live separately and never speak again, except every year a selected tribe from each gender would gather to procreate at the ceremony known as the Skabelse to keep the population arise. Rowan, a hardened warrior princess, is one of the many chosen as a tribute for her tribe, the Glade. Being raised to hate men, she sees this being worse than a death sentence. Will Rowan be able to look past her abhorrence for the opposite gender when she is paired with the handsome Prince from Rorik?

I'm Dakota Cathal, he was Augustine Dalton. I'm alive, he's not. Now here on the earth, where my best friend no longer breathes, I think a lot. Slowly, most times. Because he left me a troubling note. I swear, he must think me a mad man to believe what it says. But, unfortunately, I can't help but start to when a particular piece of evidence follows me a little too closely. . . . This is temporarily, I repeat TEMPORARILY, on hold until I get my creative crap together. Organizing my brain is a huge feat. This story will contain no sexual content and little swearing. It will, however, have topics regarding mental health. If you are uncomfortable with that, I don't exactly recommend this.
