    1. Singularity

      I think this is your best version.
      I like it.

    2. You have described the protagonist,(Closeted Writer) described the bad guy or obstacle (Murderer), the goal (Finding Murderer) and the sense of irony (Revenge Fantasies)

      I question if the revenge fantasies is ironic enough.

      Overall, I feel your logline works though, I took the liberty at removing some of the wordiness.

    3. Protagonist seems to really live in his head. Is this a story of a guy with difficulties separating fantasy from reality? If so, not sure if stakes are high enough for audience interest.. Unless he is attempting to break into reality.. Then perhaps include this challenge in logline.
