Spencer Frost is one broken and angry eighteen-year-old. He’s found himself on the ground after life delivered a sudden, unavoidable punch to his face, and he hasn’t been able to get back up. He doesn’t like that one damn bit, but what he likes even less are other people’s attempts to reach him. He doesn’t want their attention and he doesn’t need their help—or even deserve it. At least, that’s what he thinks before he meets Emerson King. She’s gentle where he’s abrasive. Calm where he’s tempestuous. Bright where he’s dark. And he’ll find she needs him just as much as he needs her because, although no one has taken the time to notice, life has been cruel to her, too. In this true-to-life and hope-inspiring new adult romance, Spencer and Emerson will learn that love is at its greatest when it finds you at your worst. **This story deals with sensitive themes, including suicide and abuse, and contains mature content.**

Seven Distant Chantings presents a collection of seven poems of various length written in free verse over a period of fifty years. The poems are essentially distilled selections from previous works of poetry and poetic stories, revised to varying degrees to accommodate their condensing in their re-presentation. The dates of original publication appear at the conclusion of each work, along with the current date of the revised shorter form of the texts. Several of the poems involve historical figures whose stories are presented with poetic license rather like the degree of fictionalization one encounters in a historical novel. The common ground of these highly varied works—their underlying spiritual theme—is human dignity hallowed by the presence of the divine throughout all the struggles, aspirations, and vicissitudes attendant on the experience of life and love, good and evil, seeking fulfillment and facing death. Humans are remarkable beings; we precariously carry immortal dreams like treasure within the journey of our mortal limitations.
