After years of heartbreak from family dysfunction, Dhalia is now 20 years old with nothing to her name except a failing flower shop. At closing time, her cat Nipsy brings to her a strange, soft blue mushroom. But nothing interests Dhalia anymore; her passion for gardening is dieing, just like her heart. As she's ready to leave, Nipsy dashes into the thick woods, again. Not wanting anymore issues to deal with, she searches for her cat. As cold night falls, Dhalia is alone with the dead trees, night creatures, and the scariest thing of all, her past. Is there life after numbness? Does time heal all wounds? Is it normal for mushrooms to produce glowing balls of light that heal physical wounds? Dhalia's cat is the one that's missing, but is that the only thing she has lost?

(This is a bit of a sad story, but I swear to you that it has a great ending! There's one point that's going to sound weird, but I swear to you that it makes sense when you think in terms of 12 step recovery, addiction, and the spiritual realm.)
This story covers topics of alcoholism, family addiction, codependency, AA 12 steps of recovery, spirituality, the Bible, and hope.

To the Well-Organized Mind by AyndhriaSoung
41 parts Complete Mature
After Earth is ravaged by climate change and the Cataclysm-the largest earthquake in history- humans are struggling to survive. Swathes of unlivable landscapes, the Barrens, continue to grow. Everywhere else is a battleground, where humans fight each other for food, water, and shelter. Humanity's numbers further dwindle as they fall victim to a new bacteria unearthed by the Cataclysm, Dementium feralis. It causes humans to lose their higher cognitive functions and turn feral, like the primates they originated from. There is no cure. Nia is a survivor of this world. She makes a living doing the riskiest endeavors-traveling the Barrens, collecting survivors, and hunting for the remaining vaccines that can help delay feralism. People are in awe of her willingness to risk her life, but it's easy when your days are numbered, and hers are. She's turning feral. However, her latest foray into the Barrens leads to an incredible discovery: someone with the potential to create a feralism cure. But it takes time and risk to create a cure, without promise of a payout. To Nia, some fates are worse than death, and the only absolute is the oblivion of feralism awaiting her. She must choose what to embrace: the feralism that could be humanity's only survival, or the risk for a cure. **** Now available on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/Well-Organized-Mind-Andrea-Soung/dp/B0C6BQTZ2B/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=Fl3EC&content-id=amzn1.sym.ed85217c-14c9-4aa0-b248-e47393e2ce12&pf_rd_p=ed85217c-14c9-4aa0-b248-e47393e2ce12&pf_rd_r=139-9204535-3864644&pd_rd_wg=rvk9V&pd_rd_r=1a892e06-01ad-4e5e-802a-e856a57daf20&ref_=aufs_ap_sc_dsk **** Cover art compiled by Andrea Soung Man image credit: https://pixabay.com/illustrations/man-destruction-double-exposure-1519665/ Wasteland image credit: https://pixabay.com/illustrations/landscape-scenery-nature-deserts-6880552/
