Untitled Noir

In 1940s Hollywood, seasoned director Vince Bianchi is no stranger to the shadows behind the glitz. When deaths plague the set of his latest film, he’s pulled into a real-life mystery that mirrors the crime stories he once directed. Forced to confront his forgotten ties to his past life, Vince reluctantly partners with rising starlet Audrey Devine, a woman whose ambition matches her secrets. As the body count rises and political tensions boil over, the line between reel and real is dangerously blurred.

🎬 Shady pasts (what’s noir without a bit of organized crime?)
🎬 Femme fatales and girlbosses!
🎬 Political tension (hello, McCarthyism)
🎬 Morally ambiguous choices
🎬 Glamorous but shadowy 1940s setting
🎬 Double lives everywhere (no one is who they seem!)

Goals:
Just write something! I don't think I'll manage to hit 50k words, but I want to get somewhere with this story. It's been floating around in my head for a few months now! I want to finish the outline and start writing.

The vibes here are ✨elite✨ and I'm here for it!! And I love your goal of writing *something* in November even if it's not 50k! Can't wait to see how this progresses!
It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.
