SIX OF CROWS X ARCANE How to fight a Chaos storm caused by the overuse of magic? Sanjiin’s fists won’t help. Neither will Rayna’s Chaos. But together, Prof. Tinley believes science can be the glue to bind enemies and magical forces to save the last Haven city from itself. #A #F #LuckyPit #PopUpPit

Final pitch for #2025pit ⚔️Witches with swords and compulsion magic⚔️ Fate chose wrong. Alys Sathos has no desire to free an enemy realm from their queen’s mind twisting magic. Especially not after the prince captures her when her broom crashes behind enemy lines. #F #A #RF #ownvoice #bipocFMC

A collage of pictures with the text ELEUTHERIA across the center. Pictures from clockwise: a man and woman being pulled apart, a woman with gold dust led fingers over her mouth, a sun and moon motif, a golden key on an open book, a hand holding a crown, a woman holding a skull, a woman open mouthed with smeared gold makeup, a man’s bare chest dusted in gold and he’s clutching a blackened hand with claws, golden snakes among golden vines, black cracked leather dusted with gold.

After an eclipse triggers an ancient, apocalyptic ritual & lots of problems for Lyla, she brokers a deal with the enemy in exchange for answers. But will she give into the undeniable chemistry with Axel or risk finding out just how closely her fate is tied to the end of the world #2025pit #RM #NA

Quote says I smile wide enough for
my gums to glisten pink. Then, I slowly bring him closer, my lips caressing his ear.

When you promised not to let your book word count go above five digits while editing, but now, after starting at 76k, you have to hand-write an extra block #writerproblems #authorlife #fantasywriters

Exactly! Something that’s easily procrastinated until after the book is done, but so much more helpful to flesh out in advance

TIP: before you start writing a new book, write the plot pitch paragraph first! Whether or not you submit a query letter for traditional publishing, it forces you to get to the *marrow* of the plot in a way that hooks the reader and to clearly set up the stakes, inciting incident, and character arc
