That Which We Carry Into The Wind

The pursuit of happiness. The culture of instant gratification. The subtle disconnect between fleeting moments that bond linear timelines yet separate and then crumble, like sand through our fingertips. That Which We Carry Into The Wind is a novel about harnessing what we are forced to shoulder in the everlasting search for meaning. When we emerge stronger through unforeseen barriers, our effort is rewarded with anchored desire to move forward with purpose. The novel begins with a young man named Jake Carson, focusing through lenses he finds most closely resemble the life he wants to lead. He is led through drug fueled nights and the reeling atonement of his waking soul, as if examining the world with a mirror. When he shifts his perspective to reflect the spectrum of his distribution outside of himself, he becomes untethered from the disquiet which left him gasping in surrender. That Which We Carry Into The Wind is a glimpse into the mind of the angst and nervousness of the twentysomething, moving about uneasily on the blank canvas that is presented to our nation's college graduates. Will two dimensional souls suspend in the function of self-indulgence, a defense of such apathetic partitions? Or does the divide fall, strengthening the chord that connects those who carry others, embarked on a course to wonder.
