Specific #MSWL :

Stories that involve managing fame/fortune as an emerging adult (could be ensemble cast as in the protagonist is a member of an idol group) & could involve pace-y elements of suspense/romance. Really looking for high concept, not too introspective stuff.

New #MSWL ! I'm building my adult list, so I'd love to see adult thrillers/suspense. Send me your psychological, domestic, and serial killer thrillers. I LOVE dark!!! No medical, political, legal, or spy thrillers. 1/3 #WritingCommunity
