Moments like this make me love winter. The sun through ice in my car window (defrosted before driving). #NatureSky #ice #winter
sun shining through lace-like ice crystals with shadowy edges.

I think one thing I'm running into with this WIP is that when I first started writing it, it was a "this is what fascism looks like, watch out for it." Now I'm like ... we all know what it looks like. We are living it.

What perishes, what survives, what remains?

#CliFi #ClimateFiction #WIPsnips #Collapse #hope #evolution
They ate their fill of meat, and left the rest for the scavengers. Most farm animals, dependent and helpless, had perished with the bulk of humanity. Some, though, escaped their confines and procreated, scavenging and outcompeting indigenous wildlife. The Histories told of a time that bird migrations were part of great cycles that had since disintegrated into chaos. Now native birds were scarce, sometimes absent entirely. Weather had bucked the yoke of ancient seasons to plunge and rise precipitously in temperature, sending mega blizzards, mega droughts, mega tornados, and mega floods. Only the lengthening and shortening of nights consistently reflected the revolution of Earth around Sun.

Nat dreams of playing pro soccer for her dad’s love, Matt dreams of practicing pediatrics in his hometown in honor of his late childhood best friend, when Matt rescues Nat from being trapped at a party, a deep attraction forms that will force one or both to stray from their path.
#questpit #Q #A #R
Stubborn dreams and bottle love EXCERPT: “I’m not ready for this to end.” Nat searched his eyes with eyes full of understanding. Too much understanding. As if she too knew this, whatever this was, had to end. Every time he held her, he wanted more from her. Something Nat couldn’t, wouldn’t give. Not yet. Maybe someday. An improbable idea, not an impossible one. Where’s there’s life, there’s hope. But that hope dwindled with each passing semester, each passing season. He wasn’t sure how much longer he could or should wait. With his all-encompassing residency starting in a few weeks and Nat playing in the Olympics later this year on top of her already grinding schedule, such hope died a slow death.

SINNERS x THE DEVILS

There's three rules to surviving as a nightrunner: don't get comfortable, don't be a hero, and don't be unlucky.

Corado's about to break all three.

BIG 5 EDITOR REQUEST!

🤠 Vampire Cowboys
🦇 Monstrous Night Hordes
🏜️ Pueblo Pit Cities

Querying now!
#A #F #Q #questpit
Image: A man in a black cloak and a wide brim western style black hat, holding a revolver; only his eyes as yellow pinpricks are visible. Text: A Novel By Kelton Davis Blood from Stone 112000 Words Adult Gothic Western Fantasy Querying Now Art: Apocalypse by Oliver Odmark Title: Pitch Text: In the twenty years since the vampires rose up out of the earth, Corado hasn’t done too bad for himself. He’s still alive, for one, and he’s got a lucrative trade as a nightrunner smuggling people beneath the vampiric horde that blots out the sky each night. It's dangerous work, but enough to get a roof over his head and a bottle in his hand at the end of the day. That’s pretty good for life under the vampires. Then an attack from the horde leaves him stuck in the desert, alone with a newly-orphaned boy, and his luck finally dries up. He resolves to find what remains of the boy’s family and put it all behind him—but instead of taking him off Corado’s hands, his so-called “family” offers a new deal: escort them to the vampiric capital in exchange for a veritable fortune. Corado knows he shouldn’t. It’s a long, dangerous route, and the group has a smack of sedition to them that he knows firsthand to be a quick way to a bloody death. It is a hell of a lot of money, though. Background image: same as first slide. Title: Comparable Titles Images of the covers of The Devils by Joe Abercrombie, Godkiller by Hannah Kaner, and Red Rabbit by Alex Grecian. Text drawn with an arrow from each image: Found family (from the Devils) Reluctant parent figure (from Godkiller) Western-inspire Gothic setting (from Red Rabbit) Unlikely travel companions (from all). Background image: same as first slide.

⚓FROM THE SEA FRET⚓ - A cosmic horror from a queer perspective

Callum Point moves to Perne in search of peace. What he finds instead are religious zealots, monstrous fish, and a constant fog that whispers to him.

#QuestPit #Q #A #H #LGBT
Two fishing boats sail on a grey ocean, with seagulls in the overcast sky. White text overlaps the grey sky. It reads: A guide to 'From the Sea Fret' a 74k adult queer horror Grey ocean, with a white-capped wave, serves as the background. The title reads: Excerpt Text is outlined: I scanned the horizon. It was just me on the water. There wasn’t anyone out sailing, or anyone swimming. I was completely alone. But… was I? Beneath me were leagues of ocean. Unlike in the forest, where you can hear the wildlife around you, there were creatures that could pass by in the sea and I would never know. The water concealed their movement, cloaking them from my view. It was getting harder to breathe. The vastness of the ocean was too open, and my skin felt too tight around my chest. I knew, deep in my bones, that something was beneath me and it was watching. On the port side, the water rippled. Though it was only a few steps, the length of the deck felt miles long. I was compelled to look below, and my body moved on its own accord. Though I was terrified of what I would see, I peered over. Grey ocean, with a white-capped wave, serves as the background. The title reads: Pitch and Comps Text is outlined: Callum Point moves to the dead-end town of Perne to scrape together a new life. He's hoping that the small fishing town will give him what he always wanted; peace. Unfortunately, what greets him is a place rife with secrecy, conspiracy and creatures beyond comprehension. 5 posters for books and shows have arrows and notes coming out of them. Dredge by Black Salt Games has the notes: Capitalism despite the horrors. Something's wrong with the fish. Old Wounds by Logan-Ashley Kisner has the notes: Queer and trans identity. People are monsters too. The Fisherman by John Langan has the notes: Lovecraftian. Ocean madness. The Lighthouse by Robert Eggers has the notes: Ocean madness. Obsession with answers. Blood in the Bayou by Just Roll With It has the notes: Who can you trust? Small town cosmic terror. Grey ocean, with a white-capped wave, serves as the background. The title reads: Themes A moodboard of 9 images sits in the middle. A hand reaching out into dark water. Thick seaweed-covered chains being pulled from the ocean. A foggy wharf at night. A group of sharks in dark water. A pencil drawing of a compass on white paper. Close-up of a hazel eye with the pupil completely white. A pile of fish. A porthole looking out onto a grey ocean. The inside of a fishing shack. Text surrounds the images. It reads: Paranoia turns revenge. Struggles with identity. Trans and queer rep. Grief over what could have been. Desperation to fit in. Cosmic/psychological/body horror. Content warnings: emotional abuse, attempted sexual assault, manipulation, transphobia, internalised transphobia, misogyny, cosmic horror, psychological horror, religious trauma, drug/alcohol use, gore, death, blood, paranoia, body horror
