SIX MINUTES is my 85k dual-POV new adult romance that blends the high-stakes athletic themes of Bal Khabra's Revolve, if it were set in the world of Off Campus (2026), and will appeal to readers who love the mental health topics in Peyton Corinne's Unsteady ⛸️🏒 #QuestPit #Q #NA #R

THE TREES HAVE TEETH 
An Appalachian FolkhorrorPITCH

Olive is eight the first time Death comes for her. She’s nineteen the second time. And Olive knows Death always comes in threes.

In the heart of the Appalachian mountains, something wicked lingers in the woods. Olive grew up running barefoot through the trees without fear of what might be lurking. But when the woods begin to devour anything that encroaches with ruthless hunger, and a mysterious man who claims to know both the cause and the cure appears at Olive’s door, she may have to face Death for the third (and final) time. If she doesn’t, the town and the boy she loves will be eaten whole.

Book title: The Darkest Light. An adult gothic fantasy romance completed at 101k words. A standalone with duology potential.Pitch for The Darkest Light:

There were three rules in the Dark Tropics:
Savor any color remaining.
The Witch must remain locked up at all times.
And do not, under any circumstance, resort to magic.

After his parents’ brutal murders, King Shadow hungers for revenge on the rival royals responsible. But when their daughter, Haven, ascends the throne—and becomes a threat to his life and kingdom—he secures a treasonous bargain with the Witch, the Dark Tropics’ ancient enemy, for a lethal love potion to defeat Haven before she strikes.

To activate the curse’s fatal effects, Shadow must convince Haven he’s in love with her, all while concealing his crimes in a kingdom where magic use carries an automatic death sentence. However, when truths unveil and forbidden desires deepen, the price of vengeance becomes inescapable.Pitch for The Darkest Light:

Unsolicited writing advice, no: 73: Stop calling yourself an "aspiring writer." Just write. Now, you're a writer. Keep writing, reading, observing, learning. Soon, you'll be a better writer.

Writing is an act of rebellion. Writing is an act of creation. Writing is an act of salvation. Writing is an act of exploration. Writing is an act of emotion. Writing is an act of confession. Writing is an act of speculation. Writing is an act of reflection. Keep writing.
