Hey, Wattpad, we're Paper Lantern Lit, the literary "architects" from Brooklyn, NY! We plot compelling and complex YA lit and find the freshest new voices out there to write them. We mentor authors step-by-step through the novel-writing process, providing a conceptual foundation, teaching narrative architecture, and constructing a platform for success. 

Co-Founders Lauren Oliver (New York Times bestselling author of the Delirium Trilogy and Panic) and former HarperCollins and Penguin Editor Lexa Hillyer are total pros at finding and cultivating stories with literary quality and major hit potential. Whether we're building stories from the ground up, creating dynamic characters, or fostering unforgettable voices, our focus is always on the hook and the heart.

PLL is currently electrifying the e-book world with our new imprint, The Studio! We've found the hottest stories in self-publishing (and created a few of our own) and are publishing them in exclusively digital formats. The Studio at Paper Lantern Lit is our way of responding to the online publishing trend- like those of you writing here on Wattpad- so if you've got a story you think we HAVE to read, send it our way!

More information on PLL can be found at our website, www.paperlanternlit.com.
