ALICE X PRINCESS DIARIES I stole an invite to my uncle’s secret wedding because no one wanted to tell me the truth. Turns out my grandies are fae royalty (WTF?), and my actions alerted my insane sperm donor to my location - a secret Mum has been protecting for 15 years. AITA? #bluepit📖 #Q #ND #F

ALICE IN WONDERLAND X THE PRINCESS DIARIES Banshees and wild unicorns belong in books and dreams, so do fae princesses - at least that’s what 18Y/O Amy believed until she snuck into her uncles’s secret wedding and discovered she’s the heir to a mythical matriarchy. #bluepit📖 #Q #YA #F #ND
The Matriarch’s Garden mood board - woman in a ball gown, spooky woods, an invitation. 
Lower - barrels, an epic library, and gloved hands in a garden. Party mood board. Champagne, a Celtic symbol, barrels, woman in a gown, a couple preparing to dance, a violin, and a ballroom.

This final character question calls for a snippet from the first chapter of The Matriarch’s Garden where Amelia herself answers… #BluePitHype

#BluePit Day two: art and aesthetics! I can’t draw to save my life, but I can play with Canva! Here’s a mood board for my YA portal fantasy The Matriarch’s Garden.
Aesthetic board: title centred (The Matriarch’s Garden) 
Woman in a gold dress, a black horse, spooky woods, and an invitation in the top section. Lower section - barrels, an epic library, and hands in gardening gloves tending to flowers.

What happens when you are a fairy godfather and your characters start to go rogue? #WIPSnips
“I’m ending your confusion, Jessie. You don’t belong in this story.”
She swallowed. “Then where do I belong?”
I retuned my gaze to the tuner so I didn’t have to look into the brown pools of her eyes and try to honestly answers that conundrum of a question. “I’m not sure.”

Aesop is a fairy godfather who has never once thought about his own happy ending. When a glitch in the fairytale generator produces Jessie, a wilfully unprogrammed character, he’s forced to consider what it means to be ‘real’. WESTWORLD X SHREK 2 #wippit #f #a
Aesthetic board: fairy tale inspired. Spiralling vortex, old book, spotted mushroom, women in gowns, the fairy godmother from Shrek 2, a clockwork pocket watch, and a work desk.

Does your town have a witch? Mine does. She’s the reason Mum’s dead, Dad drinks, and I’m my brother’s keeper. But she won’t be a problem much longer… 🔥 Agent’s guide to The Witch in the Woods. #P2Ppit #YA #F #Q #ND
