Good afternoon,
We are working on the release of a new contemporary fiction YA/NA (Young Adult/New Adult) novella, Myface, by Kevin Landt, which is proving popular with people who have been watching the popular new Netflix show The Social Dilemma. Out today, we would like to send you a review copy and can connect you with the author for interview and editorial commissions.
Myface is the perfect read for fans of Chuck Palahniuk and Bret Easton Ellis, less so for social media giants (who definitely won't want you to read this!). With more than half the global population now on social media, Myface explores its darker side. We have digital copies available for review and paperbacks ready to send out. If you'd like to be connected with LA-based author Kevin Landt for interviews or editorial commissions, or if you want to get an advance review copy, we'd love to hear from you!
Thanks,
Helen Lewis

Myface
By Kevin Landt
Myface is the perfect read for fans of Chuck Palahniuk and Bret Easton Ellis, less so for social media giants (who definitely won't want you to read this!). With more than half the global population now on social media, this YA/NA contemporary fiction novella explores its darker side.
Catfishing can be a deadly business, especially when social media mega-influencer Angela Fox has you in her sights. When Angela Fox's Myface account is selected as Hottest User of the Month, there's only one problem: she isn't real. As the fake Angela takes the world by storm, a group of strangers struggle to escape a twisted web of narcissism, deceit, and revenge.
L.A. hotshot Sebastian Shafer is so desperate to get a job, he creates an elaborate plan to convince his future employer that, if hired, Sebastian's association with "Hollywood socialite" Angela Fox will bring in the sales. The only issue is he needs to convince the world that she actually exists.
Angela draws more attention than Sebastian anticipated when her profile gains millions of followers and fame seekers desperately try to catch her attention. But things really get out of control when a handsome young stage-play director winds up dead. The question is who pulled the trigger?
About the Author
Kevin Landt lives under a roof in a sun-drenched city. He devotes one third of his life to lying horizontally in an unconscious state. The remaining time is spent obeying his publicist, who insists that every contemporary author must send out a newsletter. Kevin has a dog and a cat.
Kevin has experienced, lived and worked in and amongst Hollywood elite. He attended UCLA in 2004, when Facebook started to become ‘a thing' and by 2011, he had grown disillusioned with social media. Myface started life as a satirical screenplay and has recently been adapted into a novella inspired by the film ‘Sunset Boulevard'.
