Book Description
Every story has a hero. Devin O'Leary was mine. Everybody has a dream,And mine could take me far.Just me, and my voice,A stage, and this guitar.With patience and some luck,I could see me, standing there.But, that was before I met her-The girl with the purple hair.Enchanted by her beauty,By her soul, and then, her eyes.I saw the broken girl within,And my dream became her life.So, I found myself on a journey,Of tragedy and letting go,Of happiness and daisies,Of serenades and Poe.But no one taught us how to cope,With life's unpredictable scheme.Still, I'm the hero in her story,And she's my only dream.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
Devin Demas was born over three hundred years ago of noble lineage as a prince of a kingdom between old France and Germany. He has no desire to rule after his father King Bosren and despised him after meeting Barabis and learning his secrets of the underworld, hell. Soon after, Devin was banished from the kingdom for learning the black magic of Mephistopheles. In secrecy, he was taken to the new lands of America. After killing the ship’s captain through spells that sent him into contortions as his body was crushed into a human cube of carnage, Devin then turned the ship’s sailors into his servile slaves. After reaching the southern shores of America, they disbanded the ship as Devin, only sixteen years old, marched with his new sailor slaves inland in search of his new home. After what seemed months, they finally came to a place Devin was satisfied in and built his new home. Devin studied the parchment scrolls Barabis left him for seventeen years. He learned how to become immortal after he would have to lose his mortality under the alignment of stars and planets in the conjecture of pure evil. After being judged and sent to hell, Devin yoked with Satan then walked once more upon the earth as a heartless and soulless being in the gathering of followers for the final war of man’s soul and the occupation of Mother Earth and control of her flesh. After over three hundred years of roaming the earth, Devin came back to his old home his sailor slaves made with their bare hands. It was located outside the small town Langtownship. David Lang is the sheriff of Langtownship. His family had been in this reign since 1652. David and Devin soon became nemeses as they came to realize that they were related in lineage. Devin tried to recruit David to his satanic cult in which David wanted no part of. After Devin destroyed David’s perfect life, family, and peace on earth, David found himself empowered by armies of unlikely sources to fight against hell and darkness upon earth forever.

Laziness Does Not Exist
Author: Devon Price
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982140135
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
From social psychologist Dr. Devon Price, a conversational, stirring call to “a better, more human way to live” (Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author) that examines the “laziness lie”—which falsely tells us we are not working or learning hard enough. Extra-curricular activities. Honors classes. 60-hour work weeks. Side hustles. Like many Americans, Dr. Devon Price believed that productivity was the best way to measure self-worth. Price was an overachiever from the start, graduating from both college and graduate school early, but that success came at a cost. After Price was diagnosed with a severe case of anemia and heart complications from overexertion, they were forced to examine the darker side of all this productivity. Laziness Does Not Exist explores the psychological underpinnings of the “laziness lie,” including its origins from the Puritans and how it has continued to proliferate as digital work tools have blurred the boundaries between work and life. Using in-depth research, Price explains that people today do far more work than nearly any other humans in history yet most of us often still feel we are not doing enough. Filled with practical and accessible advice for overcoming society’s pressure to do more, and featuring interviews with researchers, consultants, and experiences from real people drowning in too much work, Laziness Does Not Exist “is the book we all need right now” (Caroline Dooner, author of The F*ck It Diet).
