The Watchful Mr. Shepherd
86K Adult Queer Psychological Horror/Thriller
Querying Q3 - Q4 2026Cause of death…blunt force trauma. Victim was cut open post-mortem as some sort of…gift?
The envelope felt heavy in Luke’s pocket.
LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID
What did I do? 

“Every day I wake up in the same bed as you and you’re still eighteen, and I’m still eighteen, and nothing ever gets better.”

Kieran talks at you, and you do try to listen, but mostly you’re rolling his name over on your tongue, tasting it.
Ki—
Kier—
Kieran—
—ran—
It’s a pretty name.

As an autopsy technician at the Augusta Medical Examiner's Office, Luke spends his nights attending crime scenes, preparing corpses, and offering condolences to grieving families.
Then an email arrives in his work inbox, a picture of a bridge he hasn't seen for ten years and an ominous message attached:
LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID.
At their high school graduation party, Luke and his future ex-husband Kieran left a boy dead and buried the truth with him. Now someone else knows what happened that night; someone who begins with anonymous messages and ends with murder.
For Kieran, the haunting is proof their past has finally come to collect. For Luke, it's something far more exciting: a reason for Kieran to finally come home.
As their watcher tightens the noose, Luke finds himself less afraid of exposure than of losing the only person who ever made him feel alive. But the closer Kieran gets, the clearer it becomes that the real danger to them both may not be outside Luke's isolated house, but inside it.

It has two portraits beneath the text in the late victorian style of a femininely dressed Frankenstein's Monster, and to the right is Viktor Frankenstein's portrait. Dark brown background with white text that says:
In 1897, after studying corpses and toying with electricity, medical student Viktor has created a man from his desire for his friend, Henry. Except shame forces him to make one final adjustment: female parts. 

As his new creation gains sentience while vivisected during Viktor's university tour and begins to chafe under Viktor's thumb, a violent death and disobedience leads the monster to make himself into the man he was always meant to be.

Beneath says - 1890s gothic prose - Queer shame/RAGE - erotic body horror -

It has a late victorian style portrait of a man with long black hair and a blood splatter across it.Two hands reach out in the style of the creation of Adam/ One is clearly stitched together.
Beneath is text that says:
“Then make me whole. Take away my anger, and I’ll weather the shame with you. I am not your bride, not your monster.

MONK & ROBOT X EMILY WILDE When a blight strikes, an optimistic archivist must track down her hero's fabled garden with the help of an archaic engineer—but secret origins and disillusionment lurk between hard drives and petals. ☀️ Solarpunk 🌷 Floriography 💚 Enby LI #QuestPit #W #A #SF #R
Floral background with the text Mending Glass. By Florrie Auclair. Solarpunk Romantic Sci-FiCharacter 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.Comp slide with Horizon Zero Dawn, Emily Wildes, 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        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.

Starfall: a queer space opera heavy on the intimate-stakes character drama, elfy science-fantasy, and swashbuckling starship adventure about a telepathic space elf who joins off-brand Starfleet. He's a stabby cinnamon roll who doesn't want any friends! (This is a lie.) #Questpit #Q #A #SF #SFF
Title slide that reads "Starfall, Queer Space Opera Adventure, 139,000 words, R. J. Howell."Slide that reads: "Pitch: Erendesirel was raised for two things: political marriage and political skirmishes. Sadly, the galaxy doesn’t have much call for a well-trained ornamental husband or sword-wielding duelist. Banished from his technologically-hostile homeworld, unskilled, and entirely broke, he applies to the Galactic Survey and Security Fleet, 
a company of space-faring scientific contractors.  

He just has to somehow pass a basic competency exam he is woefully unprepared for. And agree to a 10-year debt contract to pay for his tuition. And avoid being driven insane by the thoughts and feelings of a crew of a hundred and twenty souls serving on a very small starship. And navigate all the well-meaning people trying to be his friend.

Oh, and not get kidnapped by pirates." There is another section below it that reads "Comps" and show the covers of Ocean's Echo by Everina Maxwell, Swordspoint by Ellen Kushner, Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir, The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers, Slow Gods by Claire North, and Shards of Honor by Lois McMaster Bujold. There is also an illustration of a space elf named Eren.This slide reads: "Excerpt:  Erendesirel—the nameless, the houseless, the planetless—had tracked his quarry down to a victuals shop on the outskirts of the space station’s medical district. From his hunter’s hide on a public bench opposite the establishment, he glowered at the incongruously-wooden door, breathed in the smell of roasted nuttiness and sticky sugar wafting out through the open bay window, and fought for equanimity.

 His hand tightened on the hilt of his family sword, the blade pressed against his leg to accommodate the rather unfriendly design of the bench. Galactic architecture was, as always, crafted for comfort and unobtrusiveness but singularly failed to take into account a full-length sword at one’s hip. It didn’t matter that of all the peoples of the galaxy, there was only one that insisted on carrying true steel swords instead of some technological marvel that, oh, made the sword shrink or disappear or be constructed entirely out of light. 

 He would never stoop to touch such a thing. No, the sword and dagger set of his clan would serve him for this purpose just fine. 

 No matter that they were considered contraband. By both his people and station security, if for rather different reasons."This slide reads "The Trope Nebula" and contains a series of trope-related terms: All the feels, found family, to boldly go (but contractually), swords but space, touch-adverse telepathic space elves, starships!, stabby cinnamon roll, disaster bisexuals, qu3eer, student debt?, lesbians with laser canons, and friendship! (whether you want it or not).

What do a grieving witch, a vengeful hunter, and a closeted gay farmer's son have in common? They are all under threat of a Puritan cult set to destroy them simply for being who they are. The Witch of Eden Hollow A trans and queer fantasy romance releasing 9th Oct. #QuestPit #A #OS #A #LGBT #RF #F
Background Image: A sparse autumn forest cast in shadow with a fenced open field in the background.

Pitch:
Inquisitor T. Sterling is hired by the pious town of Eden Hollow to hunt down the witch that commands an ancient forest known as the Elder Grove.
Reclusive, guarded, and untrusting, Elias finds with dread that the only way he can save his forest (and himself) from an untimely demise is to work with the hunter that was hired to kill him.
Within Eden Hollow, Avery Miller struggles with the town's restrictive Puritan rules, forced to hide his love for another man and a sudden magical ability that manifests within him.
As their lives intertwine and tensions rise, secrets that were kept locked away seep through the cracks, and what they find very well may destroy them.

THE KNIGHT AND THE MOTH X SILVER ELITE The gods rejected her. So naturally, she: ✅ Stole her brother's identity ✅ Joined the army ✅ Developed forbidden magic ✅ Fell for the man who could expose her ✨ SONG OF THE SICKLE, adult romantic fantasy ✨ #QuestPit #Q #A #F #R
Song of the Sickle, an adult romantic fantasy, 115,000 words, first in a planned series by Megan A. SaracenoThe pitch: She’s hiding her name, her past, her power.
He sees through her every lie.

Rejected by the gods, Tessa Whitaker brands a false divine seal into her flesh and steals her brother’s identity to save him from a war he won’t survive. But when her emotions manifest unblessed elemental magic, she catches the attention of her dangerously perceptive commanding officer. If he uncovers her secrets, execution will be the least of her problems.

She can survive the war.
She’s not sure she can survive him.The comps: A Fate Inked in Blood by Danielle L Jensen for weaponized faith and dangerous attraction; Silver Elite by Dani Francis for undercover military training and forced proximity; The Knight and the Moth by Rachel Gillig for divine deception and forbidden truthsOpening Lines:      Tomorrow, the gods would judge me.  
     Tonight, I pretended they didn’t exist.
 
     I swung the scythe through another row of wheat. My shoulders screamed, but at least the burn was honest. More honest than twenty years of prayers that had earned me nothing but silence.
Sweat carved tracks through the chaff dusting my skin, but I kept moving. One more row. One more bundle. Anything to keep my thoughts off tomorrow and the bare stretch of skin on my forearm waiting to be claimed.  Pictures of military training camp, earth magic, glowing amber ring, abandoned watchtower, and incense

SCARLET BRIDE LIAR WOLF (WIP) 👰 A doomed bride escaping her cult's forced marriage 🐺 A werewolf who's spent 10 years searching for his childhood friend 🔥 Fiery magic, fearsome snakes, and lies gone terribly wrong #QuestPit #W #A #RF
Project Intro. A colorful illustration of my book protagonists, Wesley and Clara, drawn by myself (Dahlia Zhen). It is labeled with the title: SCARLET BRIDE LIAR WOLF.

Wesley and Clara face each other with slight smiles, clasping hands. Wesley has messy blond hair, and is wearing a formal black suit. Clara is dressed as a bride, with a silver wedding ring. She has red hair in a loose bun, a flowing wedding veil, and a fancy red dress with feathery sleeves. The dress stylistically melts into flames toward the bottom. 

They are framed by a circular, moon and sun design. Behind Wesley, there is a crescent moon adorned with purple flowers and blue stars, and a grey pattern of rain. Behind Clara, the background is like the sun, with cloud patterns and sparkling gems over top.The same illustration as the first image, but without the background so it focuses on the two main characters. It shows several tropes/themes with arrows pointing at the couple: Open Door, Dual POV, Shy Werewolf, They Save Each Other, Estranged Childhood Friends to Lovers, Clever Caster, Escaping a Cult, Slow Burn.A story blurb, with a different illustration of the main characters Wesley and Clara.

The blurb reads: "Raised in a cult and forced to wed a monster, Clara has only one chance to escape her fate—thanks to the help of her long-lost werewolf friend.

But when all plans go up in smoke, can the remnants of a shattered puppy love survive what lies ahead?"

Below, a list says: For readers who enjoy: 
Sweet and gentle romance,
Fantasy settings with some darkness,
Tense personal stakes,
Complex family dynamics,
Themes of growth, agency and self-acceptance.

For the main artwork, the couple stands beside each other, looking at the viewer. Wesley has a more serious expression, adjusting his tie, while Clara is still smiling. They are still in their formal suit and wedding gown outfits.

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:
