Writing new story: "When All Seems Lost"


It's Crime Fiction, something different than my usual stories and a change of pace for readers into fantasy or historical settings.

It's a modern gay crime story set in a fictional American city. Both Main Maile Character and Male Lead Character are adults in their 30s with decades directly or indirectly involved in criminal activity, indirectly or by necessity to survive. 

I am basing the concept behind the story on this quote from the famous, but little quoted novel The Master and Margarita

“What would your good do if evil didn’t exist, and what would the earth look like if all the shadows disappeared?" – Woland (The Devil) from The Master and Margarita, Mikhail Bulgakov

Essentially, I am writing this story to explore the false equivalency.

There are also major plot devices and things I'm exploring, such as drug addiction/recovery, power, and corruption.

Not sure if I'll get readers or if it's just a story idea.
