CORPSE BRIDE × 50 FIRST DATES × WARM BODIES A bored immortal mortician resurrects the woman of his dreams—again and again. But love becomes obsession, and she's decaying faster than he can let go. #QuestPit #A #H #R #W

This vertical poster for "The Immortician" features a black-and-white high-contrast composition with gold-toned typography.
Top: The title "The Immortician" is written in a serif font with gold gradients, framed by a black ornamental archway.
Center: A black silhouette of a long-haired figure in a gown stands against a white background. Parts of the silhouette, specifically the head and arms, appear to be disintegrating into small particles.
Middle: Three words—"Love.", "Obsession.", and "Decay."—are spaced horizontally across the center in a black serif font.

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END × JUMANJI When one of them is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—& ball-busting puns—to solve the crime before they're all butchered like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #Q

Poster-style graphic with a black background and heavy red blood splatter. Large distressed white and red text reads “DAD BODIES.” A dagger runs horizontally through the letters, and a 20-sided die showing low numbers appears on the right. Along the bottom are black silhouettes of heads with X-shaped eyes. Beneath, smaller text reads “ROLL FOR FUCKERY,” and at the bottom: “A co(s)mic horror novel by B. van Bodegom.”

HEARTLESS HUNTER X SLAVIC FOURTH WING 🎭 She, a humble servant posing as Duchess, is his executioner-to-be. 🐉 He, the arrogant Dragon Prince, must save a kingdom from the encroaching Ever-Dark. 🖤 Neither anticipated falling for the one destined to be their undoing. #questpit #NA #R #F #DF #Q

A gothic-style book cover titled "Root and Ruin." Centered is a glowing, cyan-blue dragon coiled into a circle, its scales etched with faint, runic symbols. Golden, gnarled roots extend downward from the dragon like branching veins against the pitch-black background. Text at the top reads "Enemies to Lovers," "Fated Mates," and "Fake Identity," with "An Agent’s Guide" in the top right. Subtitle reads "80k • NA Slavic Romantasy," and the bottom logline says, "She is sent to kill the dragon. Instead, she might become his only salvation."

A graphic titled "The Comps" in golden lettering. It displays four book covers arranged in a grid: "Heartless Hunter" by Kristen Ciccarelli, "Fourth Wing" by Rebecca Yarros, "Shadow and Bone" by Leigh Bardugo, and "The Witcher: The Last Wish" by Andrzej Sapkowski.

A self-made fantasy illustration showing a halfway transformed, dark-haired man, Prince Konstantin Veliki, with a silver crown and dragon wings. He is carrying a woman, a humble servant Iva, masquerading as a Duchess Zora, in a long, flowing cream-colored gown as they fly through the air. She is his guest but unbeknownst to him, she is plotting to poison him. In the background, a sprawling forest surrounds a magic academy, Kolegium with colorful, traditional Slavic-style onion domes—gold, silver, bronze and green. Each of the domes represents air, water, fire and earth magic respectively. Snippet text at the bottom reads: "Do you always sequester your guests and take flight with them?"

A self-made illustration set in the catacombs under the magic academy, Kolegium, featuring classical-style statues on the walls. Iva, in dark armor, rides a bright, light blue-scaled dragon; it is Prince Konstantin Veliki in his dragon form.
They face off against a monstrous, ethereal shadow dragon composed of wispy, black smoke and glowing eyes — this is Konstantin’s fallen father Tibor Veliki. A brilliant golden sphere of light, relic of the Slavic god of light, Belobog, called Spark of Creation, floats on a pedestal between them. Text at the bottom of the snippet reads: "Let us dance, little one," the Shadow Dragon hisses in a dry whisper of the fallen. "A worthy foe," Konstantin responds. We take to the air to meet the darkness. Two gargantuan winged silhouettes hover in the abyss, suspended in a precarious balance. They mirror one another; two sides of the same coin, champions of Belobog and Chernobog.

A mood board for Princess Mira, showing a Black princess with dresses and jewelry, a message in a bottle, a crown made of shells, a conch shell, and romantic scenes of the princess with her love interest, a white princess with red hair, including their faces pressed together, kissing in the reflection of a handheld mirror, and running across a grassy field arm-in-arm. The lesbian pride flag is subtly depicted across the grid, with the first row of picturetinted light orange, the second row tinted cream/white, and the third road tinted a rosy pink.

#YouDeservepIt It’s Only Me, a YA contemporary romance: Raised by her strict Tiger Mom, Maggie Wang fake-dates the hockey team grump to make her crush jealous, only to fall for the wrong guy and risk breaking all her mom’s rules. #Q #YA #R #C #ComingOfAge #poc #writingcommunity #amquerying

Nathan playing hockey. Maggie playing keyboard. Maggie studying. Preschool. Nathan listening to music with eyes closed. Nathan and Maggie skating. Nathan kissing Maggie’s hair. Bunny hugging teddy bear. Nathan and Maggie hugging.

Comp titles: Lynn Painter’s Better Than The Movies; Ann Liang’s This Time It’s Real; Tashy Bhuiyan’s Counting Down With You; Laura Taylor Namey’s A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow; Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before

Maggie Wang lives by her tiger mom’s rules—even her crush ticks all the right boxes. But when she finally works up the courage to confess to the perfect guy, he’s too oblivious to look beyond their friendship. Desperate to turn his head, Maggie hatches a plan: snag a fake date to his hockey team’s skate party and make him jealous, as long as she can survive her clumsy self on the ice.
Enter Nathan Myers—the team grump. Once he agrees to be her stand-in, everything seems simple enough: he’ll teach her how to skate, and she’ll put up with his attitude. Only the more time they spend together, the more Maggie discovers a gentle teddy bear hidden beneath Nathan’s gruff exterior. For the first time, she wonders if it’s okay to let go of certain expectations—being herself might actually be enough.
But Nathan’s a wild card with no college plans. He doesn’t fit in the future Maggie’s mom has mapped out for her. Trapped between the family expectations and her growing feelings, she must decide whether breaking the rules is worth it with the boy who’s becoming more than just a fake date.

KINSHIP, a pitch-black thriller with horror elements featuring queer characters, long-lost siblings, and (of course) murder. 6 literary agents are currently reading it. Wouldn't you love to read it too? #Q #A #T #H #YoudeservepIt

Amber Baird: KINSHIP, 84k word horror-thriller agent's guide. Subversion of gothic tropes, long-lost siblings, true crime podcast, prey, family secrets, psychedelic, unhinged queer female protagonist, generational trauma, predators, meat, bears, remote California location, dark humor.

KINSHIP blurb. Megan's already trying to avoid the heat for what happened to her girlfriend's husband back in San Francisco, and now she has to help her incompetent new brother clean up a murder he commits, because that's what family's for... probably. Now if she wants to get back to her lover in one piece, she'll have to navigate her brother's taboo affections and dodge multiple suspicious parties. So much for her quiet weekend away.

KINSHIP first lines. Driving all night across the state in a part of California no one vacations in, a part that still belongs to the animals, my eyes burn for sleep. Car flanked as it is by clear paths as far as I can see, would it be so bad to let my eyes drift closed for just a moment?

KINSHIP, for fans of: Maeve Fly by CJ Leeds (surrealism), My Sister the Serial KIller by Oyinkan Braithwaite (exploration of family), A Certain Hunger by Chelsea G Summers (dark humor), Blood Sugar by Sascha Rothchild (female rage).

An Agent’s Guide to my YA Medieval Mystery The Ghost of Avalon. Cream text on a maroon back ground over another background of a castle surrounded by water.

Slide 2 of my agent's guide to The Ghost of Avalon. Slide titled "The Intrigue."
At five years old, Avalon was betrothed to a prince. At fourteen, she was forced to fake her own death. Now, five years later, she must come back to life to save the only man who knows she’s still alive--the king who had a hand in her supposed death.

Slide 3 of my agent's guide to The Ghost of Avalon. Slide titled "The Plot."
When Avalon uncovers a plot to murder the royal family, she must return to the castle she fled under the guise of death to save the only man who knows she’s still alive—the king who had a hand in her supposed death. With the help of a pesky armored guard whose face she’ll never admit to wanting to see, Avalon must search out clues and implant herself in the affairs of visiting nobility in the hope of discovering who wants the royal family dead. When she discovers the current threats tie back to the death she faked five years ago, she must expose the person responsible for the ghosts who haunt her past and the current murder of a castle servant before death finally comes back to claim her for real…or she ends up married to a prince. She can’t decide which is worse.

Slide 4 of my agent's guide to The Ghost of Avalon. Slide titled "The Similarities."
Throne of Glass - Unforgiving female protagonist and castle setting
For She is Wrath - Back from the dead and revenge murders

From left to right- a Victorian style house, a dark wood, a woman with a mirror for a face, a fawn, moths with flowers, a gate in front of a university, words on a page, a university library

Regan wakes up in the hospital with no knowledge of who she is. A family secret holds the answer. A ghost with a past will show her the way. Mystery of Fate #BluePit #Q #A #P #C #R📖

Writing Tip: Whenever you finish writing a scene for the first time, go back and try to read it as if it was new. Like you were reading it for the first time. Try to put your own biases aside and identify what might be confusing or unclear. Don't edit yet, just read. #writing #writingtips #writesky

The struggle is real when you are not feeling well and have to guess whether you have a fever or your internal hot flash indicator light has been activated. Oh, well. Since home from work today, time to send out some queries.

Reducing a 96,000 word novel down to a 200-300 word synopsis for a query is such a daunting task to me more than writing the book itself. Slow, but sure I will make it happen.
