Two hundred years in the future, scientists have discovered a "cure for human nature," little white pills. These pills are advertised to correct chemical imbalances in the brain and prevent things like violence, depression and low IQ's.   Seventeen year old Lyric has never been convinced by the whole thing. And one night, when a group, called The Boycotters, announces that they have been refusing "treatment", Lyric is faced with a choice. Continue doing what everyone she has ever known believes in, or fight the system and risk her life in the process.

SAMENESS

/// SAMENESS, WHAT WE STRIVED FOR SO LONG TO ACHIEVE. BUT WHAT IF YOU'RE DESTINED TO BE DIFFERENT? \\\ Nine months of Hibernation, three months of being awake--that's how the year goes for us. Half of us wake up tired and sore while all of us wake up smelling of either lotion or bleach. But during the nine month period of hibernation, I woke up. And now I know why I always wake up sore and reeking of bleach. ⥀ Humans have always strived for equality, for everyone to be treated equal. We finally reached the point of this harmony, this level of sameness--and everyone is happy. Many, many generations later. But what happens when, in a wold of people knocked down and stood up to be exactly alike, a person wants to be different? What if they're destined to be unique in a world of strict equality? ⥀ #10 in Scifi on 7/21/17 MADE IT TO ROUND 3 IN THE WRITERS OLYMPICS Now available as a paperback and ebook.
