Hannah Sydney Writes
Being is hard. A writers job is to magnify the good, the bad, and the funny of existence.
I'm actively searching for the perfect agent for my novel Darlene.
Hello
My name is Hannah.
I like feeling invisible. An expert eaves dropper, watching deeply and collecting snippets, quirks, and stories from the people around me is a favorite past-time.
I was a contemplative and whimsical child, and I’ve carried those qualities into my writing as an adult. I love to deep dive into an emotional snapshot, and the interacting internal and external experience that is best distilled in writing.
Darlene
Darlene (word count 94,000, literary, upmarket, women’s fiction) is about a brilliant coder who is unable to move beyond the tiny town in Arkansas she was raised in. Plus-sized, brainy, and straightforward, Darlene does not fit the bill of what an acceptable woman looks like in her community. Immobilized due to her unwillingness to confront archaic systems of inequity, Darlene finds herself alone and misunderstood. One night, while coding a female heroine during a raging storm, Darlene is infused with the power to impact the weather. With her newfound empowerment, Darlene is asked to once again step-up and support the leadership of her friends to take down small-town racism and corruption that her family is directly involved in.
A parable about bad allyship, this is an unexpected wash of the old paradigm, girl-stuck-in-small-town, that will appeal to millennial readers staring the past in the eye.
Let's connect!
