Looking forward to burning off people's eyebrows in The Lab and having mine burned off in return.

My goal is to find an agent to represent my science fiction crime thriller novel about a gentleman gorilla detective with bad asthma and good instincts.

I have other projects in development which I plan to prioritise with a lab experiment that may or may not prove to be explosive.

See you beside the fire extinguishers

hello Stuart, and welcome.
I'm intrigued to know what title you've chosen for the gorilla thing - sounds fabulously unique.

Hi @Stuart G

Welcome to Litopia. I hope you're settling in.

I'm excited to witness your experiments, but please don't burn the Lab down.
There's an instructional video here: How to use the lab and more
Maybe we should have emphasised the use of safety goggles.

Stay safe,
Rachel

Welcome aboard @Stuart G Have you read Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennet? It's a fantasy crime thriller but really unique which sounds up your alley.

Welcome

From one human to another, welcome to Litopia. Your novel sounds rather zany, and the world needs as much 'rather zany' as it can get.

Hello Vagabond, and thank you. Fabulously unique is what I've aimed for. The title is The Killing Skin.

Thanks Mickle. On the surface the novel might seem zany but the subtext is a social commentary on the class divide, the importance of family, and the flexibility of history when it's told by the winners.

What's your oeuvre?

Thanks for the recommendation RK. I haven't read that. I'll add it to the list of unexplored alleys.

What's your taste in alleyways?

Thanks Sedayne. Instructions read and understood: the lab's no use to anyone if someone flames the place.

Speaking of which, I hope you return to your zany alien comedy SF thingie.

Welcome. Anything that matches or outdoes Umbrella Academy is copasetic in my eyes.

I've written a few genres. Currently MG fantasy mystery

Asthmatic gorilla detective sci fi sounds like a blast. Looking forward to reading!
