Mock-up book cover for The Curse of the Fart Witch by Rae Law. Tag line "Something Wicked This Way Smells". An evening street with lit up houses, green gas coiling upwards, there are a number of oversized alien-looking spiders (about the size of dogs - sentient barking spiders) throughout the image. Flags: Reluctant hero, sibling redemption, spooky humour (cinematic, not silly), kids vs supernatural threat, sentient minions, Goonies style ensemble cast. An excerpt from a sentient Barking Spider's journal - the spider is British gentry and pompously complains about the witch's promise of exquisite stink not being fulfilled and how the locals have spritzed him with a rosemary-mint abomination.

Editor’s Guide To: The Things We Run For YA Drama Mystery with Romance 94k Words Represented by Amanda Wooden at SBR Media 4/13/1996 Run. What a powerful instinct. Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after. The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden. What we know: -Runaway in Hiding -Fake Identity (turned real identity) -Mental Health Rep -Genderfluid and Pan Rep -Found Family -90s Small-Town Nostalgia At the bottom, the name Emma Bridge is crossed out and replaced with Peyton Freys 6/23/1996 “The Hills have Eyes” There’s a collage of pictures. Picture one is of two people, one sitting on the counter with the other in front of them. Picture two is go a small-town street with snowy homes to either side. Picture three shows a row of high school desks. Picture four shows a box of police evidence. Picture five shows a group of kids sitting behind an abandoned building. Picture six shows someone flipping off a police car. Picture seven shows a paper with the words “Child Custody Hearing” printed on it.

After her murder at the hands of a death cult, Ginevra wakes in an unnatural body built as a weapon and mistaken for the missing princess. As the cult hunts the soul they thought destroyed, she must claim her own identity—or be defined by the powers that remade her.

Hallmark Meets Poly: THREE'S THE SEASON

Grieving lawyer Charlotte enlists her 2 best friends to finish her late husband's last wish: the Christmas List. When unexpected romantic feelings emerge she'll have to decide whether to risk her found family for a second chance at love.

#QuestPit #W #A #R
In red text on a holly themed background: An Agent's Guide to Three's the Season! On the far left side is an image of two women and a non-binary person in front of the US Congress building. A red Santa hat caps off the title. Comps for a new novel: Three's the Season. These include KISS HER ONCE FOR ME due to the sapphic yearning with all the feels. TRIPLESEC for the polyamorous romance. A MERRY LITTLE MEET CUTE for the spicy yuletide shenanigans. The pitch: After suffering a humiliating public meltdown, grieving lawyer Charlotte seeks solace with her two best friends- only to be caught off guard by unexpected romantic feelings. By Christmas Day, she'll have to decide between starting fresh in a new city or risking her friendships for a second shot at love in this holiday RomCom set in Washington DC. The Snippet: I slide into my office: Charlotte Sanders-Stewart Esq. emblazoned on the door. The vinyl lettering is a bit chipped, but that’s to be expected after ten years. I take out my laptop from my sensible Kate Spade tote, slip out of my sensible sneakers and into my slippers. Yes, I have a pair of office heels in my bottom desk drawer, I wasn’t raised in a barn. But most meetings are on zoom anyway so my black Jimmy Choo's that I bought with my first ‘big girl’ paycheck have mostly been collecting dust for the last five years. By the way, my office is gorgeous, the floor to ceiling windows with an amazing view of the Washington skyline. Real romantic comedy shit. Like Katherine Heigl should play me in the movie they make about my life. Just make sure that it ends seven years ago with the big white wedding and not like now with the dead husband. Kind of puts a damper on the whole Nancy Meyers vibe you know?

Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school's guardian, she finally gets that chance.

YA Gothic Fantasy 93,000 Words CHAPTER ONE The rain made it easier to rob his grave. My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night's whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us. Us.
