About

Music. Since time began, mankind has made music, using the power of melody to express themselves. Music can be soothing, uplifting, energising, melancholic, or depressing. What does music mean to your characters? What part does it play in their lives, and how has it impacted them? Perhaps they discover some new music which has consequences that no one could have foreseen, or maybe music signifies something horrific or threatening… Whatever the story, music will be a key part of the unfolding drama. Delve deep into your imagination and deliver a tale that engages, moves, and surprises the reader. But here’s the catch – your story MUST incorporate a YA as a main character, and must be appropriate for the YA audience. It can be told from any vantage point, and can be first or third person. I’m looking for stories that address the typical themes of YA fiction, but with distinctive dark, edgy or fantastical slants – so dark fairy tales, bizarre fiction, horror, surrealism, fantasy, and dark science-fiction are all cool here.
