A young witch struggling with test anxiety accidentally steals the joy from everyone in school and teams up with her rival to undo her curse #amquerying
A graphic with a purple to blue ombre background. Up top, it says Thief of Joy by Audrey Cecile Moore-Comps. The second part of the graphic has K-pop Demon Hunters, Sailor Moon, Belle 2021, The House at the Edge of Magic, Wicked, and The Last Hope School for Magical Delinquents divided up by tropes-Magical Girl vibes of female friendship and loneliness, voicey lead, and magic school, ambition and feelings of inadequecy

AMARI X JUJUTSU KAISEN
After stealing her first mission, 13yo Maeve opens a portal to the realm of the 7 Deadly Sins—where she must strengthen the barrier keeping them imprisoned. If only ex-friends, talking urns, and magical mazes weren’t a part of the deal too… #Questpit #MG #F #Q
Left to right: (Left) A 13-year-old Native American/Māori boy with long curly hair tied in a ponytail. He wears tiny gold hoops in his ears. His uniform is lilac and gold. A lilac jacket with the initials MA stitched into it, a gold vest with purple lining, a gold tie, and plaid, purple pants. The tallest of the group. (Middle) A 13-year-old Black girl with light blue hair styled into cornrows. She has multiple piercings on each ear, including two dangling crescent moons. She has a mole under her eye. She wears the same uniform as the previous boy, but her jacket is buttoned up and she wears a skirt. She has a slight gap between her two front teeth. Much shorter than the boy on the left, slightly taller than the boy on the right. (Right) A 13-year-old Black/Filipino boy who's wearing the same uniform as the previous two. He's added a dark purple hoodie to his uniform. His dark hair is sectioned into twists. He's wearing circular, golden-rimmed sunglasses. A small, red fox is perched on his shoulders.

A nerdy agender experimental art gremlin and an ex-wunderkind roboticist in exile team up to find out why the local tech co is bricking robots and stealing memories, and who's sending weird dispatches from the wasteland that's supposedly empty. Then mutually pine a little.

Not querying yet (finishing final revisions) but testing out my agents guide!

SINNERS x IWAV

Angeline wakes up with a taste for blood and 200 years of missing memories. As visions reveal flashes of her past, she must uncover the truth before danger crosses her doorway.

Millennials really watched Brendan Fraser in The Mummy playing a loveable rogue and his role of a himbo in George of the Jungle and said 'THAT. I want THAT. Forever.'

First Audrey Nuna embodies Mira by wearing a sleeping bag to the VMAs and now Rei Ami wears the most perfect Zoey cosplay for Halloween. Love how the cast and crew are celebrating this film and expressing their love for it

One of the reasons I love posting my interviews to Substack and Tumblr is that people do find them a year later. I'll randomly see one of them getting an increase in notes on Substack or someone will leave a nice comment on Tumblr talking about how much they loved the book.

Absolutely in love with EJAE releasing a power ballad as her debut single that shows off her range and takes her to such a vulnerable place.
