I made several stabs at writing a novel and failed. Then, one day, I sat down to write a novelette.

It grew.

(And *A Diabolical Bargain* ensued.)

Apologies if you've already answered this question, but:

Have you considered serializing your novel through Substack itself? Is there a reason you're wanting to go the trad pub route?

Sommerset Maugham said there are three rules for writing a novel, but that unfortunately nobody knows what they are.

Your novel sounds great. I like the reason you chose for naming the protagonist’s love interest “Adam.”
