Hi Jasmine. I recently posted on here looking for a CP. My novel is female-led. A young woman whose behaviour is rooted in childhood trauma - sexual and family dysfunction. I left a synopsis if you'd like to take a look.
I'm ideally looking for a genuine partnership, where we can help see other through to the Finish. Whatever that is. I'm a serious and experienced writer, but irreverent and unconventional. My style veers between brutalism and literary fiction.
I understand structure, character arcs, pacing and have a fierce editorial/proofer's eye.
Cheers, Sarah
