I'm currently working hard knocking pages daily on book one of a five part YA Dystopian fantasy.  

Here are some tidbits of interest for this project:

Dystopian Fantasy: In this genre, you will find futuristic communities that are filled with negative qualities such as poverty, suffering or oppression by a totalitarian/despotic system of government. This happens either because of a natural disaster or by the members of the particular society that brought this upon themselves by deeds done or ignored.

Time Frame: 500,000 years in the future, after a volcanic and earthquake catastrophe. 

Book one plot: The queen has been murdered. This accused, a 12 year old boy, is about to be executed unless the heroine can help him escape.

Protagonist: A heroine is a sixteen-year-old girl from a poor family. She meets a boy at school who's on a quest for a book that she believes doesn't exist.

Setting: Antarctica is now at the equator and location of the story. This is due to the catastrophe, which caused the earth to tilt on its axis.
