Shattered
The US wasn't the only nation fighting against the Vietnamese and their allies in the Vietnam War. Kyle Kirkland was a young serviceman with the Royal Australian Regiment. As he watches his grandson, Jett, head for Afghanistan, he writes his story, a story of Vietnam. But it is not just his story. It is also the story of a young US Marine, Alfred F. Jones, whom he fell in love with in a nation that had stolen so much from him.Complete
The Australian Federation - Rebellion
By the early 2042, tensions in Australia had reached a boiling point. Following decades of economic and political entanglements with China, a growing Chinese-Australian administration began implementing restrictive racial laws, targeting native Australians and other ethnic groups. Bendigo, a historic gold rush town, became the unexpected flashpoint for what would soon become an all-out rebellion. In late 2045, protests in Bendigo erupted after the Chinese-backed government enacted laws segregating businesses and restricting voting rights. When peaceful demonstrations were met with violent crackdowns, a group of rebels, including disillusioned Australian soldiers, miners, and students, armed themselves and took control of key infrastructure. Within weeks, similar uprisings emerged in Melbourne, Sydney, and Adelaide, pushing the Chinese-backed administration into a defensive stance.

Enhanced
We have always been destined to rise above our already fascinating sentience; To evolve into something greater than we now are. Change is a fundamental essence of the reality we live in today, an aspect of life that has been here for centuries. A strand in our beautiful nature that we have learned to despise. As the saying goes, 'People are afraid of what they don't understand'. People tend to fight back against change and others embrace it. When the chance of evolution finally reveals itself to us, on what side will we be on? The side that chooses to let it soar the skies, or the side that chooses to use it selfishly? Humans are magnificent creatures, not because of their awareness of life. But for their capability to unite and divide themselves because they choose to do so. (This trilogy is dedicated to those oppressed by the violence and suffering that discrimination may bring upon them.) April 19th, 2020Complete
The Cunning Venus
"There is no true social revolution without the liberation of women. May my eyes never see and my feet never take me to a society where half the people are held in silence. I hear the roar of women's silence. I sense the rumble of their storm and feel the fury of their revolt." ― Thomas Sankara, Women's Liberation and the African Freedom Struggle) This story starts in the mid-'70s when South Africa was experiencing democratic change; it mainly focuses on the challenges that women faced, from not being considered economically valuable to not being provided equal opportunities as men to being faced with discrimination, lack of legislation, tribalisation, segregation, and Domestic issues. This story takes us on a journey of how cunning a woman can overcome all the barriers that hold her back and how she becomes a Cunning Venus. All characters in this story are fictional, and the storyline is not based on the exact historical event.
