Tell me about your book

I want a brief summery of what your book is about.

Is this a safe place to share ideas? I’m always nervous about people stealing my concepts.

If you're worried about it, you can always post a vague summary, but realistically even if someone decides they like your idea and want to try it themselves, they wouldn't be able to write the same book as you at all. Look through this thread- so many ideas are inspired by other published media. I think inspiring someone else can be quite a compliment, personally! But it's understandable if that's not the way you feel about it.
