Experience Level: Intermediate
Hello,
My name is Godfrey Winston, I am an aspiring author who has just completed my first 47,000 word book, The nature of the beast. It may seem strange that I have contacted you about my literary project, but if you read on, I am certain that any initial thoughts of bafflement will alleviate!
My 'New adult' book is a Sci-fi/ horror themed story that focuses on social media and its impact on young British and American urban culture. The au courant inner city lifestyle experience, shared by many young contemporaries around the world due to the internet, is interwoven into the narrative. Street fashion, music etc...has been used to create a story that is hopefully very relevant and speculative in equal measure. Though there is a central character, there is also multiple story lines that run alongside, akin to Tv shows Breaking Bad and Sopranos. I envision that this book will be the first in a trilogy, if successful.
The story begins with the main protagonist (who is initially nameless), contemplating his existence. Submerged within the digital deluge that is social media, like many of his teen peers, He struggles to find his own identity. Attention and popularity is the only social currencies that matter in a world distracted by Hashtags, Buzzwords, Likes and Followers that act like the Internet version of schooling fish.
How can he stand out in the Cyberspace shoaling? Without no apparent talent, it will be hard to swim to the surface or float above the crowd. He decides that a change of scenery in the Big city of London could be the needed catalyst for reinvention. But soon after arriving, he is attacked and suffers long-term and seemingly irreversible paralysis. A few years later, the offer of a highly dangerous experimental treatment by a powerful and mysterious weapons and Pharmaceutical corporation gives him hope of a return to the mundane, but ordinary life. But a chemical accident within the confines of a lab warps his mind and body into something almost post human. the real cost of Human individuality uncovers it's hidden truths and shows Him what lies beyond the primordial sea of the Information Age. Will He evolve enough to walk where no man has gone and become godlike.
I am looking to create a Youtube web series that depicts the book visually. I imagine each video would represent a chapter of the aforementioned book.
