I am a Japanese novelist currently seeking professional feedback and potential collaborators for my completed contemporary romance novel, The Love Letter After Forty Years.
The novel tells the story of a Japanese man and an American woman who reconnect after forty years apart. Spanning Japan and the United States, it explores themes of enduring love, regret, forgiveness, family responsibility, and the possibility of a second chance later in life.
The manuscript is currently approximately 195,000 words. I have already begun a substantial revision process to streamline the novel for the international commercial market while preserving its emotional depth, character development, and cross-cultural themes.
I have recently started querying literary agents and continue to refine the manuscript based on professional standards and market expectations.
At this stage, I am not seeking a co-author or shared ownership of the work.
Instead, I am interested in connecting with:
• Developmental Editors
• Manuscript Consultants
• Romance or Women's Fiction Editors
• Literary professionals with publishing experience
• Screenwriters interested in novel-to-screen adaptation
If you offer professional services, I would appreciate learning about:
• Your relevant experience
• Previous publishing or adaptation projects
• Your approach to manuscript development
• Estimated fees and service options
My goal is to bring The Love Letter After Forty Years to the highest possible commercial standard while preserving the emotional heart of the story.
If this project sounds interesting to you, I would be delighted to connect and discuss potential collaboration.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
