Expand commentIf you are serious about writing a book, I can help you with that. I have 18 published books. I can help you get started and point you down the path. I am a pantser. I can usually pound out a book in six or seven weeks. It'll take another month of editing, a full copyedit and a test read in a small group... but its all doable.
I have a hard time finding particular things. It's just me. Can someone please point me to the pitch session posting?
William... don't feel alone, I'm with you in the 'can't find' wilderness... it'd be nice to see the posting so we can learn from them.

Expand postHello, my name is Abhi and I am just looking for tips and feedback! I am trying to rewrite this logline for an idea of mine to make it a bit more concise and also show the perspective of the main character who is a determined young female scientist. Also is this a good premise in general? Any help is greatly appreciated!
Genre: Sci- FI, Thriller, Apocalypse
Logline: Forcibly exiled to an underground military research facility, a group of scientists is tasked with finding a cure for the rage-inducing virus responsible for the global apocalypse. However, after a breakthrough is made and one of the scientists is found murdered, they soon realize that one among them has a more sinister mission.
Imprisoned in a covert lab, a relentless professor and team engineer a cure for a rage-inducing virus, only to face a deadly betrayal that jeopardizes humanity's last hope and their chance for release.
I like that logline, Abhinav Siripurapu. I think the end of your logline needs some work, just a little.

"Imprisoned in a covert lab, a relentless professor and team engineer a cure for a rage-inducing virus, only to face a deadly betrayal that jeopardizes their chance at freedom and humanity's last hope of survival."
In your other comment, you said, "The main conflict of the story is to get the cure out of the underground lab that they are trapped in to save the world." If you wanted to go in that direction, here's a logline suggestion:
“After finding the cure for an apocalyptic virus, a relentless professor and scientists try to break out of an underground prison and get the cure to the world, but a homicidal traitor among them attempts to sabotage its release.”
These loglines are great Abhinav Siripurapu. Could you add to the logline how they will stop the opponent?
Happy to have you aboard the good ship Five Moons
Let's get sailing
Another year in the can. (Old films get stored in cans)
And I'm sure an old film. I'm not a rerun. I'm an original, remastered onto digital.

And I'm sure an old film. I'm not a rerun. I'm an original, remastered onto digital.
I am who I am because that's what I decided to be.
Like Dave, I'm a storyteller. Eighteen published novels would about confirm that. Originally, they were all published by Double Dragon Publishing from the Toronto area. Unfortunately Double Dragon succumbed to the COVID crisis, but I am happy to say that my good friend Deron Douglas moved on to become a famous Native Canadian painter.
That left me to start from scratch. I lost everything, but I am tougher than that. I started Five Moons Publications and learned the business from the bottom up. I republished all my books. I went on to become a beta tester for Amazon's hard cover POD publishing. I teamed up with an excellent narrator to create audio books for all of my novels. Through all of this, seven of my books hit Amazon's Top Ten in their categories after being republished.
I am currently working on some screenplays. I am putting in the same effort that I put into publishing. I'm determined to make a movie. Let's see what this year brings.
Happy birthday sir! Here's to continued success after the publishing bumps in the road. Curious about the audio book process. Let me know if you would be open to sharing about it.
Happy birthday William Parker! Absolutely love your positive attitude. When life hands you lemons, you make lemonade. I love that for you.
My real purpose in writing that was to encourage and inspire my fellow creatives. We need to become greater than the sum of us. We need to lift each other up.
