Hi guys, in my quest to be a writer, I participate in this fun Open Novella contest annually, but this year I am writing something that might be of interest for some folks here. I think. Anyway… the info:
> Title: The Tetrachromat
> Genre: Historical
> Subgenre: Paranormal
> Audience: NA, A
> Prompts: 37
> Important Tags: anti-war, paranormal, time-travel, mystery
> Warning: it’s frank and has some gory descriptions
> Summary:
In 2023, eighteen-year-old Grisha is upset over missing his admission to a prestigious Art Academy. Worse, he's drafted to fight in an unjust war he hates. In a fit of rage, Grisha rips his second-hand text-book and hurls it at his hardliner father. He fervently wishes he could fix Russia's violent history just like that. To erase the shadow of Ivan the Terrible, as it looms larger and larger over Grisha's world, driving him to the brink of self-destruction.
In response, the world crumbles around Grisha until all that is left of him is his soul, which travels through time to find Besson in the year 1591.
Also eighteen, Besson is a suspect in the killing of a child Prince-Ivan the Terrible's son-when his only desire is to paint icons in a quiet monastery. Together, Grisha and Besson hunt for a mythical assassin and an answer to the question of who you should kill so there is always peace.
