Hey guys!
So I haven't been on in a week because I've been outlining a new story that I'm titling Heart of Darkness. It's a kind of Beauty and the Beast rendition except, instead only one of them being cursed...both of them are dealing with a curse. It's also an LGBT fiction for New Adults because there really isn't enough of that out there. (Also, I love writing same sex couples for some reason. Don't have any idea why.) It's a brilliant idea and I'm proud of myself because it's the first one I've worked on by myself for the first time in a long time. The blurb I have so far is this:
"High atop a hill sits the Du Mont Estate, a regal palace rumored to be the home of a dangerous beast. For Quinn Bothwell, Du Mont Estate held the answers to a curse his family had endured for three centuries. Each Bothwell boy who couldn’t find love before his twenty-first birthday died a terrible death. For Seamus Du Mont, Du Mont Estate was a prison. Imprisoned behind the walls of his family estate with good reason, Seamus has endured the Curse of the Beast for his entire life. For three centuries, every male in his family has had their soul marred by a werewolf transformation every night. Only love can break his curse. When, a month before his twenty-first birthday, Quinn decides to travel to Du Mont Estate to find answers he meets Seamus Du Mont and sparks fly. Can love save them? Or will it come too late?"
I've already outlined each chapter and I'm working on the character profiles now. (Thank you Jenna Moreci for that tip!) And I'm also getting ready to start actually writing in a few moments. My question is simple, really. Is there really a set genre for something like this? I'm unsure of if this is going to really be marketable at the moment and so I'm asking you guys if you would be interested in this if you read it on the back of a book.
Also, I made a cover for it. Which you should jump over to my profile and see because I really think you guys should see it. I'm super proud of it.
