This Week’s Topic is:
Inspired by Stephanie Perkins’ post on Natalie Whipple’s blog, what is your novel’s “Love List”?
Hm, this is a thought provoking and interesting topic. Now just to pick which WiP ?? I’ll do two love lists, one as a teaser for my book Obscura Burning due for release in December from Etopia Press and one for my WiP:
Obscura Burning, YA science fiction
- Bisexual male protagonist
- Quantum entanglement
- Navajo mythology
- Interracial relationships
- The setting – near Shiprock, New Mexico
- The soundtrack
- Tenderness of the characters
- Scars
- Fire
- Apocalyptic themes
- How one tiny decision can have such a profound domino effect
- Split realities
And now for the WiP tentatively titled Automatic Heroes, YA science fiction/mythpunk
- Set in Finland
- Myth retelling
- Awesome superpowers
- My MC’s knack for describing things in his own special way
- Zombies
- Determination
- The bond between family
- Self-sacrifice
- Scars (I see a pattern here)
- Wolves
- Snow
- Hatred for summer
- The naming convention
Do you have a love list for your WiP?
