Once again, I am going to involve myself in a challenge in which I could very well crash and burn, but not for lack of trying!
Ever since the success of last year's Open Novella Contest, I promised myself I would participate in the next one... and here we are.
This time around, I'm going to try something new- a contemporary romantic mystery thriller using the Suspense Fiction Prompt #6 - Tarot:
