I'm clearly in the wrong business.

I'm in. Have signed up with Leader Bear (hopefully correctly)

I'd like to give it a go. I'm going to try my hand at a political eco-thriller. Potential log line is: When a brilliant young biochemist creates a virus to peacefully reduce the human population and force global climate reform, her plan is hijacked by a grief-stricken radical, turning her act of...

I'd be honoured to read it if you'd let me. email: [email protected]

I want to participate (although the commitment scares me). Like Pamela Jo, I plan to polish/rewrite and prepare an old project for submission. Some of you may remember it, as you helped me find the title: INK SLIP. The shortest way I can describe it (FYI this is not a fully worked out logline)...
