Hello!

This is Angela, a 17 year old writer who's hopefully getting ready to self-publish her first book. She's feeling confident, excited, hopeful--

I honestly have no idea what I'm doing, but hey, that's never stopped me before.

Um...what do other popular authors talk about? I don't have any pets, I'm not dating, I have two siblings but they're the bane of my existence (I love them), Jesus is awesome, I think we all deserve human rights 🫡🫡

There's also the WIP that I need to actually talk about...I can give a quick synopsis:

Synopsis:

Welcome to Stratagem, a never-ending mall made for everyone and anyone to shop to your heart's content! We have a variety of stores made by shoppers and managers alike, and we all bond over the sole expectation: coupons and consumerism! Now, let's hear from a few shoppers about their personal experiences:

• New Shopper #1: I don't know how the hell I even got here. Apparently is was because of some invite? I never got an invite though...
• New Shopper #2: Last I checked, it was the 14th of November at 6:59am when I woke up, and SOMEHOW at 7 on the dot I was suddenly on a sofa in the furniture section of a store. Like, what kind of sorcery--
• Veteran #1: I've been selling furniture here for a few years now, and I think it's a pleasurable experience. Except for the night. The mentally numb who try getting rid of [MANNEQUIN]s near my breakroom actually piss me off. And DO NOT get me started on the [IDEOLOGY]s and [REMEDY]s. Bastards.
• Veteran #2: I think having those entities on the store grounds during the night is actually a blessing in disguise, if you ignore the amount of lives they take...if you manage to get rid of them, you earn a large sum of store credits. I personally would call it worth your while.

Special words: "The manager definitely had a vision when he introduced the memberships July 14th, 2017. However, now looking at it, I don't think it was the right way to go. People are so biased against others who are "different" from them, especially when it comes to [SAINT]s and [SINNER]s. There are also a lot of [OUTCAST]s who haven't brought the membership and are getting in a lot of trouble by the [RULER]s who work and are supposed to operate the mall. I mean seriously, what could possibly be so important about some membership?

Things to find in the book:

• Bounty Hunters (yeehaw)
• Art Deco styled setting and aesthetic
• Liminal Space
• Slight SCP inspiration (Specifically 3008 and 047)
• Odd Characters
• Multiple POVs
• First, Second (Very small amount), and Third Person
• I refuse to list out tropes 😔🙏

When I get approval, I will add more to this list.
