MARK OF A MAGPIE is #OnSubmission! 🐦‍⬛📖

Editor's Guide To MARK OF A MAGPIE Crossover Romantic Fantasy 118k Words Text is on a piece of parchment. Behind the parchment are blue seas and gold flower outlines. Blurb One for Sorrow, Two for Joy, Three for a Girl, Four for a Boy… Ryn is a small-town thief who has a knack for being overconfident in her abilities, but by day she’s a beloved tavern girl with the liver of steel that carries her reputation. On her most daring break-in yet, she runs face first into the kingdom’s last living assassin, Seven, and he’s just offered her the opportunity of a century: a ticket of attendance to the King’s upcoming courtship gathering. It’s a partnership she’d be a fool to take up, but with her family scattered across the sea after the draft, a fool is what she’ll need to be to find them. Five for Silver, Six for Gold… Seven is set on his own plans, however much they interfere with hers, and they won’t be the only ones in attendance with hidden agendas. Once whispers of the past begin to resurface and nobles begin dying around them, it’s survival of the cunning and silver-tongued. The castle is under lockdown, and all bets for the crown are placed on their capture. Seven for a Secret, Never to Be Told. Text is on a piece of parchment. Behind the parchment are blue seas and gold flower outlines. Tropes and Themes - Thief x Assassin - Mental Health Rep - Identity vs Duty - Class Difference - Forced Proximity - Secret Code - Morally Gray - Women's Wrongs - Unlikely Allies to Lovers Comps: Throne of Glass's castle-setting murder mystery and theme of "who you are versus what you have to do" meets the banter-heavy dialogue, strong female protagonist, and nautical setting of Daughter of the Pirate King.

BLACK MIRROR × SEVERANCE × THE GOOD PLACE

Having a happy death is a luxury service for the rich and Wren is the rising top salesman—until a cynical coworker and a depressed billionaire force him to rethink it all in a world where even your last smile has a price tag.

#QuestPit #A #S #SF #W
Made from non-AI free stock images. This image is a book cover design for a novel titled "Happy Death Inc." by B. Van Bodegom. The cover is divided into three distinct horizontal sections: 1. Top Section: Features a cartoonish blue sky with white clouds and a bright sun. At the top, a tagline reads: "How much would you pay to die with a smile?" The word "HAPPY" appears in large, playful, hand-drawn-style font, partially overlapping the sky background. 2. Middle Section: A photograph of a deceased man in a suit, lying in a casket. He has an exaggerated smile on his face, almost unnaturally wide and clean, suggesting artificial enhancement or post-mortem alteration. Overlaid on this image is the word "DEATH" in the same large font as the previous word. 3. Bottom Section: A cartoon city skyline in pastel tones, similar in style to the top sky background. The word "INC." is overlaid prominently in the same large font. At the very bottom: A novel by B. van Bodegom

As the resource-hungry Sovereignty expands unchecked, two sisters find themselves at odds: one a Sovereign pilot, the other a rebel. Their paths collide over besieged Iskar, where magically engineered weapons are unleashed by both sides—at great cost.

A mood-board style card with the title The Engines That Divide, YA/NA Dieselpunk. There are various images, including a mechanical walker, a fighter plane, a factory, and others. A image of a factory in orange and blue, with large smokestacks, with text reading: Sometimes the easiest choices to make are the hardest to live with. Kira Sahl is happiest with soil beneath her feet, tinkering away at machines. Her sister Tam, though? She just wants to fly. Cast into a war half a world away, the sisters find themselves on different paths. Gifted pilot Tam becomes an ace in the elite Sovereign Aerocorps. Mechanic Kira, meanwhile, gets a taste of the war up close. When Kira crosses paths with an enigmatic enemy artificer, she is presented with a choice: stay and fight for a cause she has no faith in, or leave everything she has ever loved behind to join the rebellion. Throwing her lot in with the rebels––the Inkari artificer, a rogue arcanist, a free-thinking mechanoid, and a pair of savage Korat––she puts herself on a collision course with Tam in the battle over a besieged city, where both sides plan to unleash magically-engineered weapons—at devastating cost.

Background is a brilliant image of space depicting many stars against a dark blue sky with orange and red toned galactic clouds from the Webb telescope. Images of the three main characters are drawn using glowing yellow to mimic constellations. Text reads: An Agent’s Guide to The Promise of Darkness. Background image is of stars against a black, blue, and orange space courtesy of the Webb telescope. Title says, “Vibes and Comps.” A lists of themes in the novel reads: fibro and chronic pain rep, queer as the norm, found family, soulmates, destiny vs choice. A shot of the playlist for the novel includes the songs Rise Up O Flame by Kiki Rockwell, Arsonist’s Lullaby by Hozier, Starboy by The Weeknd, and Euclid by Sleep Token. Comp titles for the novel are Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo, The Darkness Outside Us by Eliot Schrefer and the TV show ARCANE. Text on the left reads: "The Plot; When more stars dim in the sky of a dark planet, an astronomer aligns himself against the guilty pyromancer regime. He plots the impossible, relighting the planet's star, with the help of a girl with celestial magic and a lovable alchemist. If the star doesn't kill them, the regime just might." On the right is a hand drawn image of main characters Ballad, a young man with brown skin and long dark brown hair wearing black robes, and Calx, a young man with white skin and dirty blond hair wearing green robes. Calx kneels in front of Ballad in an homage to John William Waterhouse's paintings. Background image is of stars against a black, blue, and orange space courtesy of the Webb telescope. Title says, “Excerpt.” Text reads: Lauryl had always imagined the pyromancers as fiery monsters, the very manifestation of everything she'd ever heard about them. Perhaps they'd look like The Beast, the old god of the wild, wolflike and menacing. This man appeared too normal. Beneath the flesh, he might be the same monster she'd pictured, but on the surface he was just a man, and that was the scariest part.

A plus-size baddie dog sits to survive after her ex leaves her with rent she can’t afford—then she meets a guy in the personal care aisle who’s everything her ex wasn’t: loyal, patient, and in desperate need of a dog sitter…which might just ruin her plan to swear off love forever🐾
#QuestPit #A #R #Q
Title page for an agent's guide to KNOW YOU BETTER, adult plus-size romcom. Green background, two character stock photos, photos in polaroids to of tattooed hand holding, a corgi + golden retriever, and a Red Wings game "Know You Better" one-paragraph pitch: After her boyfriend of six years moves out and leaves her with rent she can’t afford, retail manager Sydney Bennett is barely hanging on—juggling long shifts and a side hustle dog-sitting for clients with the worst-behaved pets in Metro Detroit. When she meets Owen Sutton in the personal care aisle after a rant about two “demonic Pomeranians,” he’s instantly charmed—and in need of a sitter for his own, much better-behaved dogs. What starts as a business arrangement turns into something gentler and deeper: a slow-burning romance between two people still healing from betrayal. But as Sydney faces losing her apartment and Owen’s past betrayal comes back to haunt him, they’ll have to decide if the safety they’ve found in each other is worth risking their hearts for. On a green background with two stock images of the characters A sample of writing on the left from Know You Better, as well as 4 images of comp titles, including their book covers and information. Savor It by Tarah DeWitt for the sizzling banter & tension. You With a View by Jessica Joyce for the emotional exploration of starting over. Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez for acts of service as a love language. And Curvy Girl Summer by Danielle Allen for the plus-size confidence. Tropes of "Know You Better" and character images, stock, along with information about the characters. Sydney Sage Bennett: 30, Aquarius, Retail Ops Manager. Empathetic. Competitive. Amazing cook. Loves hockey. Sarcasm as a shield. Pilates girlie. Brunch is her love language. Poor spending habits. Younger sister. Sworn off relationships to focus on herself. Owen James Sutton: 31, Cancer, National Events Manager. Patient and loyal. Flirty. Loves hockey. Bottles everything up. Former company co-founder. Amazing dog dad. Acts of service. Takes care of his elderly neighbor. Older brother. Prone to emotional spill-overs.
