NAUSICAÄ X FF7 Hana is sure she’s the chosen one, even if her magic is resisting her and the previous chosen one insists she isn’t. But if it isn’t her destiny, then no one can save the world from poisonous dark magic, endless wars, and powerful demons. #Questpit #A #F #Q

Dark forest. An agent's guide to The Blessing Returned. Adult fantasy. 98,000 words.

Dark forest. Pitch. Idealistic Hana Hahl lives in a world that is slowly dying after a failed quest to bring back magic. The only ones left with power are self-serving royals and dark mages, while desperation has given rise to an anti-magic order. Caught up in a mystical event, Hana is blessed with an immense power that could restore nature to the world. As Hana struggles to control the overwhelming force, Lady Kalyn Nossi, the only known survivor of the disastrous quest, directs her to the one person who can help her. Matthias Azel, the failed chosen one, reluctantly agrees to teach Hana while concealing his past from her. Accompanied by Kalyn and a charismatic prince with a dangerous secret, they journey to seek answers about Hana’s destiny. They fend off demonic threats and the anti-magic forces as Hana struggles with magic that seems to resist her and a growing fear that the world isn’t meant to be saved.

A dark forest. Snippet. She took a cautious step forward, unaware she was in a spectral form. Little drops of shimmering light followed her path, dissolving into the ground. “But this has to be a sign?” Grass grew where the light fell, delicate bits of nature that should be impossible. “Maybe it’s returning!”
The young woman spoke with such bright reverence as if life was a fairy tale and magic was all they needed for a happy ending. It was as if she couldn’t see the shadows approaching her. The inevitable death.
“Magic should never return.”
After speaking those words, he sprang forward and shoved her away from the shadows. Pain rocked him as soon as he touched her. The scorching mystical agony tore a scream out of him, but it kept her away from the unearthly menace, and the shock did what he intended.
Sent him back to his body.

A dark forest. Comps. Nausicaä. One Dark Window. The Starless Crown. Godkiller. Final Fantasy VII Remake. Tropes. Chosen One (s)? Ecofantasy. Dieselpunk. Grumpy/Sunshine. 1930s vibes. Love triangle. LGBTQIA+ rep. Cynical mentor. Dying world. Found family.

In a fictional world reminiscent of semi-occupied India, court musician, Aneesa, plays pretty melodies by night and plots her revenge on the governor by day. Falling in love with a runaway princess with her own secrets is just a misstep, but it might be one that proves fatal. #QueerPit #F #A #FR

vainika sitting with her veena in a purple dress, music notes float around her

SNIPPET:Vikram smiled, grin salacious as the singer rose. He gestured impatiently to the servant at his side who produced an opal the size of a child’s fist.

Courtiers nearby gasped and applauded, and the singer looked like she might faint. This jewel could feed her gharana for a year— maybe even two.

But my jaw clenched. The mahal did nothing out of pure altruism. I knew this better than most. There was always a price in the Vajra court.

Music is honesty, Aneesa-jaan. My mother’s words were like a balm from all those years ago. In its discipline, you can find truth. And I was doing just that. My veena was my weapon. My disguise as I sought to expose the Vajran Court’s underbelly. Maa might have never intended for me to use it this way, but she wasn’t here anymore. So who was to stop me?

Gay crimes! Trans wrongs! Enemies to enemies! Meet my #YA / #A #HF #AC #COA #HA swashbuckler!! A romp through a colorful, heightened historical playground. Can one defeat the patriarchs with the very weapons of masculinity? Well, one angry trans boy can sure try stabbing them a lot. #QueerPit

"L'entrée du prince de Ligne à Londres 1660", painted by François Duchatel in 1660, depicting the arrival of a great procession of ambassadors walking in fine clothes and riding in coaches, watched by a huge crowd of Londoners.
Text over it reads:
THE DUEL IN 1660: a queer swashbuckling farce. complete at 83,000 words.

"The arrival of King Charles II of England in Rotterdam, may 24 1660" by Lieve Verschuier, showing many ships with the Flag of Holland/States Flag. The grand ship bearing Charles II has his royal arms carven on the stern.
Text over it reads:
England, 1660: the restoration of the monarchy. In Charles II's triumphant wake, a Royalist family quietly returns, but not with their single daughter—instead, with their single son.
15-year-old Alexander—vain, hot-tempered, and warm of heart—expects to strut in as an aristocratic peacock. But when his ambitions are frustrated, he's sucked instead into intrigues of questionable honour and forced to reckon with what it really means to be a man.

"Man Writing a Letter" by Gabriël Metsu, painted around 1665. A Dutch young man, beautiful and androgynous with long blond hair, wears black doublet, breeches, and stockings and a luxurious white shirt and falling band. His expression is tranquil and far-off as he writes a letter on a table draped with an imported carpet.
Text over it reads:
Pray enjoy this tempest in a teapot, crafted of the purest tropes and set in the Age of the Rakehells, featuring:
glamour and grime of 17th century Westminster.
goofy action punctuated by primal screams of rage.
problematic characters for miles.
petticoat breeches parkour.
queer mentorship.
romantic friendship (or maybe 'tis just gay, oops).
boys who cry. a lot.
and somehow, everything turning out all right in the end.

Detail of "View from the Mussel Pier in Amsterdam", painted by Ludolf Bakhuizen in 1673, showing a peaceful sky over a ship with two gulls.
Text over it reads:
Alexander stood at the edge of the deck, one hand clutching the railing, the other fastened tight on the brim of his hat as he leant out over the waves. He was not much afraid of falling in, though he had never swum anything choppier than a pond. Rather, he was afraid that his Acadian fur hat, the most expensive for sale in the shop on the Kalverstraat, might fly off his small crown and flap with its feathers all the way to the water—which, like the sky, could not quite decide between blue and grey.
There was no one to see him aside from the sailors and now Klein, climbing up from below. Still, he had meticulously dressed that morning, down to every last ribbon. He’d had a very specific vision of himself when the suit was being ordered: the azure he’d picked was not just brighter than everything around him on the fluyt but even the true sky itself, and he sparkled with silver, when the wind tugged his doublet and loose breeches, and gold, when the meagre light managed to catch on his rapier’s small hilt.
It was imperative, one must understand, that he look extremely stylish doing battle, should pirates suddenly appear to satisfy his fantasies. And indeed, at fifteen, he thought himself quite the dashing young man—not the boy he was.

a sneak peak into what i've been working on this year! CANAL BOYS🌊 #YA #FantasyMystery #SouthAsian #WIP

A girl in a vest is speaking to a boy in a sweater. She is irritated. The background is the night sky with faint constellations. A snippet reads:

Lamplight from Severich Row’s estate houses winked ahead, casting long, sharp shadows like teeth, like jaws made of greed and very expensive Yeshnian light bulbs. Without hesitation, Nir dragged them in between, her lungs burning like they’d caught fire. Saints, she hadn’t sprinted like this in a long time, and that too with a sprained ankle. Suddenly, she was grateful for Runner’s presence. Not that she would ever admit it.

He crouched beside her now, panting as he massaged his shoulder. “Have you—ever—considered—” An unflattering wheeze interrupted his sentence and he paused to regain his breath. “Have you ever considered that there might be more than one way to do a thing?”

Nir frowned, fighting the urge to cross her arms. “Please don’t tell me you’re complaining. For Parwal’s sake, we’ve got the invitations.” She flapped the gold-edged pieces of stationary in her hand like a fan. So what if they were slightly crumpled? It would get them in the door without questions.

Runner stood to face her, one hand pinching the bridge of his nose. “You
knocked that poor man out cold. He’s going to wake up with a nasty bruise, probably terrified—”

“He’ll be fine,” she broke in. Nir should have expected this. Ajay
Runner— a stickler for the rules. Who’d have thought, except, you know, everyone.

“That,” Runner said, “is not the point. Seriously, Nir, have you got no conscience?”

“No, I suppose I don’t.” She winked. “But you can be mine.”

Korean folktale retelling

Pitch

Shim Cheong sold herself to the sea to save her father. She didn't expect to wake in a palace beneath the waves, kept alive by a dragon king who defies the underworld to let her breathe. Nor to find a life worth wanting-or a god worth choosing.

Yongwang has ruled his waters for millennia. Countless souls have drowned. None ever drifted into his palm and swallowed the sea. Now he's determined to prove Cheong has the will to live, before defying cosmic order costs him everything he is.

The woman is of fair complexion, her hair is braided and over her shoulder, she wears a light blue top. The man is of bronze tan complexion, his hair is loose and swept back, his blue shirt is open to mid-chest. He holds chopsticks with a lotus root. His hand cupped beneath.

Characters

Shim Cheong
So painfully self-sacrificing, she is unphased by her death. Ruled by Joseon era propriety, she's never learned to want. Even her life. Must she be last in private, too.

Yongwang
Ancient dragon king who existed long before Confucian decorum. He's perpetually barefoot and without a topknot. He's determined to prove her will to live-and maybe win her heart, too.

CORPSE BRIDE × 50 FIRST DATES × THE DEAD ROMANTICS 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. #WIPPIT #A #H #R

$A gothic-style book cover featuring a striking black silhouette of a woman in a long gown against a stark white background. Her form, particularly around her head and shoulders, appears to be fracturing or dissolving into dark particles, with her long hair blowing to the right. The entire scene is framed by an ornate, black Art Nouveau-style archway. At the bottom, a textured, smoky black mist rises. The title at the top reads "The Immortician" in a metallic gold font, with "The" written in an elegant cursive script. Near the bottom, the words "Love. Obsession. Decay." are spaced across the width in a classic serif font, and below them, the text "A NOVEL BY B. VAN BODEGOM" appears in a clean, all-caps sans-serif font.$

The field was on fire. It swept over the flowers and tall grasses with ferocity, leaving nothing but smoldering remains and broken hope in its wake. Smoke filled the air, low lying like a blanket. The acrid smell of smoke and burnt flowers was suffocating. The flowers, which had once been beautiful and fragrant, transformed into ugly ash and malodorous fumes.

Still, Theo ran, the muscles in his legs burning and his lungs filling with smoke. He was a runner, in more ways than one, and he knew the fatigue that came from legs pushed past the limit. He should be able to run faster than this. The mechanical motion of his legs was hindered by a heaviness like lead weights tied to his ankles. He should be faster, lighter.

But maybe he had been running longer than he knew. He couldn’t remember what had come before. He had been spawned into existence, an apparition. There was nothing prior, only darkness and the cool touch of wet stone.

$WIP: The Desert Keeps Her Dead. The pitch: The Desert Keeps Her Dead is a weird western fantasy set in a desert frontier where water wells are created using the bones of extinct beasts.

As the heist’s pressure mounts, new loyalties surface and old betrayals take hold. What begins as a routine job becomes something far more dangerous: a choice between seizing the fossil’s power or destroying it for good, and with it, the fragile system keeping the desert alive. Comp titles include The Water Outlaws, Red Rabbit, And Side by Side They Wander, and The Geomagician. Website: www.saraduranauthor.com.$

B) A market selling elaborate lanterns, all aglow.
C) A porcelain and gold hand, reaching upwards.
D) Two figures leaping across rooftops against the coming dawn.
E) A pocket orrery engraved with runes.
F) A wax stamp with removable chits that function as coins in a card game.
G) The lords of the city overlooking grand canals and issuing edicts. They are dressed in fine red robes and silks.
H) Assorted bones and shells used for divination and more.

WOLF WORM x DON'T LET THE FOREST IN THE TREES HAVE TEETH - An Appalachian Folkhorror (currently drafting) 🌲 💀 🐇 Olive is eight the first time Death comes for her. She’s nineteen the second time. And Olive knows Death always comes in threes. #WIPPit #W #H #A

PITCH

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.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

TREASURE PLANET × FIREFLY × COWBOY BEBOP After finding an old wrist computer on a desiccated corpse, a bookish scavenger teams up with a prodigal engineer to discover its contents while going toe to toe with a ruthless pirate captain on a lawless space station colony. #WIPPIT #A #SF

A sci-fi book cover featuring a digital illustration of a young man with messy brown hair and a smudge-faced expression, looking upward and to the right. He wears a worn, blue jacket with dirt patches and a pair of brass-rimmed goggles with glowing green lenses resting around his neck. The background depicts space, filled with stars and a large purple and pink textured planet surrounded by a ring of dark space debris. A black silhouette of a futuristic space station stands out against the planet. At the top, the title reads "JAK STERZAND" in large, bold, green-shadowed white letters, with the subtitle "ESCAPE FROM FREEPORT" in glowing yellow text underneath. At the bottom, it reads "A novel by B. van Bodegom" in white text.

MENDING GLASS ☀️💾🌼 When a blight strikes, an optimistic archivist must track down the legendary garden of her hero with the help of an old world engineer—but discoveries about her idol make her question everything. ☀️ Solarpunk 🌷 Floriography 💚 Enby love interest #WIPPit #A #SF Currently drafting!

Floral background with the text Mending Glass. By Florrie Auclair. Solarpunk Romantic Sci-Fi

Comp slide with Horizon Zero Dawn, A Psalm for the Wild-Built, Violet Evergarden, and Fruits Basket. The text pointing at the various media are Ruins of a fallen industrial world, Solarpunk, Flower Motifs, Traveling to help others and find self discovery, Joyful but melancholic character connections, and Sunshine MC x Sunshine Protector

Character portrait of a blond woman making a heart with her hands. Juniper Penrose. An archivist specializing in botany. She idolizes the old world botanist, Miriam, who helped lead the resistance centuries ago. Optimistic and a little reckless, she seeks to uncover the past and find Miriam’s garden. Her drive to help people, sometimes comes at her own expense—like the reason for the mechanical leg she now cherishes.

Next to that is a character portrait of a nonbinary character with light blue eyes and duotone hair in black and blonde. Eli Winter. An aloof engineer who specializes in old world infrastructure programming trying to prove their skills are just as important as the nouveau programmers of the city. They leave their home and grandfather to help Juni break into archaic servers and hard drives—and often pull her out of trouble.

The Pitch
Data is as fragile as flower petals. That’s why Juniper, an archivist in a recovering solarpunk world, wants to immortalize the past in the Glass Archives. Safe from time’s decay, unlike the archaic hard drives of the old world. Specifically, information on her hero, Miriam, a botanist who legend says grew a garden of resistant plants—ones that could survive the blight ravaging their crops. But to find it, Juniper will need the help of Eli, an engineer who specializes in old world technology. Together they traverse ruins and follow a trail of flower language from village to village to unearth what led to the dark age of information. But Juniper starts to question her identity when they uncover that the woman she modeled herself after was not the hero she believed.
