The best time was had participating in #DVPit yesterday and having the chance to connect with other fellow writers. I’m always so amazed by the creativity during pitch events, and I wish you all the best of luck with querying!

A moodboard that encompasses some of the themes in my book. Such images include: a shark, a volcano eruption, dark corridors, books, a clock ticking, a stormy sea, and two images of a palace’s exterior.
