0| The Launch Pad Manuscript Competition Presents… | |
| Title: | EVERYTHING YOU WANT |
| Logline: | After covering up a hit-and-run accident, a brother and sister’s lives are changed forever when they discover that the woman they left for dead was their soon-to-be stepmother. Now, with the effects of their actions playing out right in front of them, their personal lives and mental stability slowly begin to erode. |
| Pitch: | BLOODLINE meets THE KILLING |
| Writer: | Kirsten Alexander |
| Genre: | Drama | Mystery |
| Why to Read: | The writing is descriptive and vivid, and the writer has a solid grasp of the setting and a clear vision for the story. The writer knows Australia and it comes through on the page, as the manuscript is imbued with authenticity thanks to the various places, customs, dialects, flora, and fauna of the Land Down Under. The chapters alternate between the two leads, providing insight not only into their own heads but also into how others are perceiving them, squeezing out every possible ounce of complexity from this fantastic premise. Self-discovery, self-loathing, redemption, and condemnation – these internal conflicts permeate these pages, to the point that these characters feel so completely real that the reader will stick with them until the very end, no matter what happens. |
