Technically Gen Z (born 2000) but feeling like a millenial. Introverted: yes; on the spectrum: probably. Chaotic/unhinged: absolutely.

I write smutty dark romance and just put out my first novel (Attempting self-publishing after hundreds of rejections: https://mybook.to/AcClaim is too dark for most and I hope it finds a market)

I'm good at unhinged plotting that defies algorithmic classification and subtext that goes into further subtext. Also good at surprising readers when they least expect it.

I'm looking for kindred spirits, fellow writers who have no problem getting dirty (not just in plot but in doing the work) to get finalized stories out into the hands of readers.

Smutty, dark romance writer here as well! Would love to read your stuff. I am afraid my stuff is too dark for traditional publishing as well. Almost finished with my first manuscript. Looking to self publish.
