Absolutely huge word count on these – publisher is basically requesting a novella. But you might find that works for you. Plus monster stories from a LGBTQAIP+ angle.
Thanks for posting this, Jules. I really fancy having a swing at it and I’ve got the makings of an idea but no confidence I can knock out 20k+ words of quality copy in five months!
Go for it, Stevie. I bet you can knock out more words in 5 months than you think. And worst case scenario, you’ll still have the makings of a story if you don’t hit the deadline.
Jules, you’re absolutely right. So I’ve got a radioactive monster looking to find that special someone, the monster’s giant mutated rat sidekick to help along the way and a title.
