Hi,
I hope I'm posting in the right area. I've written what can basically be described as a teenage romance with a twist. It's not just a simple boy meets girl, there's a lot of self-doubt/low self-esteem aspects to the story as well as lots of references to life in the late 90's/early 2000's as that's the time it's based in. Early internet, calling from phone boxes etc. Plus, it's easier to write about my own era!
What I'm not sure about is who I should aim the story at. Either modern day teens who may be fascinated how we used to do things before social media, or they may not be able to relate at all. Or people my own age (mid 30's) who will be able to relate to the early 2000's stuff, but may find the story line too childish.
Any thoughts or ideas will be much appreciated.
Many thanks, K
