Small rant, but I feel like I wrote something so niche that idk where and how to promote it 😅 Especially in the local scene.

"Is it romance?" Kinda, but it's not the main thing.
"Promote your fantasy books..." Yeah?
"...based on local folklore or history" ...Oh 😅

Here's the synopsis!
Charli Project (Working Title) - Synopsis (1/3) In the fictional Metropolis, citizens shape and define their lives in the absence of the Author, who has long abandoned the city. As multiple stories begin to unfold, a regulatory body of Archivists keeps everyone’s records in check. It works under the guidance of a woman called the Persona, the Author’s sole manifestation, who wields time travel and creation powers to reshape the city at will. Charli Project (Working Title) - Synopsis (2/3) She has given Metropolitans the choice to have children, which was once a deviation from the Author’s work. But now, this new generation—those under twenty-five—is mysteriously dying by the thousands, alarming the Persona and Archivists. Charli Project (Working Title) - Synopsis (3/3) Meanwhile, nineteen-year-old Charli begins seeing visions of young people’s deaths, saving a few of them in the process. Terrified of her growing power and its ties to the Persona, she keeps it secret, confiding only in her best friend, Kai, an aspiring Archivist. But as the city’s fate teeters on the edge, Charli may have no choice but to confront the Persona—and the past they share—before time runs out.
