My career started as a children`s book illustrator/author though I`ve always longed to write adult fiction Wrote a screenplay, a comedy, that was made into a small independent film.
My novel is set in the Bronx and Florida in 1962. A lower-class American family attempt to traverse the subtle but clearly circumscribed American class system. In the re-write I would like to expand the time line. Would appreciate some UK viewpoints.
The Gallaghers are a working class family from the Bronx who have made the journey to Florida for the father to accept a job offered to him by an old friend.
