✨ THE CRAFT x ONE DARK WINDOW ✨ When Lola’s deadly shadows escape, killing her best friend, she must seek control at an elite magical academy before they kill again—or lose her humanity. Perfect for agents who like: 🏳️‍🌈 Sapphic BIPOC witches 🖤 Body horror 💫 Fantasy/Horror/Mystery #QuestPit #Q #A #F

An image of a school with multiple towers, in black on a grey sky, with multiple crescent moons hanging above. The text reads ‘an agents guide to The Bells of Le Fay, adult dark academia fantasy, 102k words.

A silhouette of a woman reaching up to the sky with a bright light between her hands. There is a shadowed tree next to her. The text reads: pitch, The price of magic is monstrous. Lola Knight expects to live a normal life, but when the deadly shadows beneath her skin escape, killing her best friend, she must attend Le Fay Academy for Higher Magics to seek control before they kill again. When she finds out the shadows are slowly turning her into a monster, she chases a cure through the ancient archives—but instead unearths a dangerous conspiracy, and must decide: keep digging to unmask the true monsters, or accept her fate and risk her humanity.

An open spell book surrounded by candles and a mirror. There are three book covers; for One Dark Window, Book of Night, and The Incandescent. The text reads: tropes and comps, witchy dark academia, monstrous magic, sapphic romance, ancient archives, body horror, unhelpful ghosts.

The silhouette of a woman with a huge dark shadow looming over her. The text reads: first lines. The shadows had teeth, and they hungered for blood. They shouldn’t exist here, amongst the weathered sandstone of Durham University. They shouldn’t exist at all, outside the confines of Lola’s mind. But the terrible scratching of claws against flagstone wasn’t a figment of her imagination, as she had first thought, strolling arm-in-arm with Sam on their way home from an end-of-exams party. She didn’t notice them straight away, her gaze sliding over the shadows cast by the faculty buildings. She didn’t notice them until they peeled away from the walls, their darkness thicker and more absolute than the others. Even then she pulled her gaze away, dismissing it. Inebriation hung over her like a thin veil, turning the glow of street lamps into a kaleidoscopic sky.

An Agent's Guide to Song of the Sickle, an adult romantic fantasy, 118k words, First in a planned series. Background picture of wheat field. Big picture of amber ring and smaller picture of incense burning.

The Pitch, with small pictures of a military training camp and an old watchtower covered in moss. What if Mulan had magic, and instead of being rejected as a bride, she was rejected by the gods?

Comp titles include The Jasad Heir by Sara Hashem for hidden identity and forbidden magic, Blood and Steel by Helen Scheuerer for training ground romance, and The Knight and the Moth by Rachel Gillig for weaponized faith system.

the opening lines of the book, beside a picture of a sickle with wheat. Tomorrow the gods would judge me. Tonight, I pretended they didn't exist. I swung the scythe, blade slicing through wheat. My shoulders screamed, but at least the burn was honest. Sweat carved tracks through the chaff dusting my skin, but I kept moving. One more row. One more bundle. Anything to keep my thoughts at bay.

His hunger transcends anything as simple as lust. A perfect replica of my own.
Our appetite goes beyond the physical. What we starve for is not the body, but the soul.
Spirits, which I'm certain, have known each other for millennia—longing and finding one another, again and again against all odds.
Nothing can come between what is immaterial.
Even less so when it is destined
A divine homecoming.
He is the vessel of my existence. The missing half that completes me. There is no him without me. And without him, there is no me.
-
And how do I tell him I'd gladly crawl beneath his armor, inside his clothes and past his skin? Fight myself through sinews and bone, every ligament and essence that makes him him, and live on solely to keep his soul free of any pain?
Caretaker of his soul for eternity.
-
A touch, as soft as a feather.
The dull edges of fingernails.
Deliberate and as exquisitely slow as molasses.
I arch into these luxuries like a cat wanting for more.
Hum at the whispery strokes as they comb through my scalp, down my hair, in pursuit of my jaw and finally my décolleté.
I know it's him.
Scent him like a vampire would sweet blood.

When his elf supremacist cousin threatens war, Letyf must confront his traumatic past on a world-saving quest—but he's far from a hero. To make matters worse, he's up against Lia, a world-hopping demon with a reputation to uphold and plenty of lives under her belt. #Q #A #F #Questpit #AgentsGuide

"An Agent's Guide to Distant Realm, Adult High Fantasy, Dual POV, 136,000 words." A collage of images set against a backdrop of a misty forest. The central images feature a worried blond man, looking away from the camera, a serious woman with dark hair looking into the camera, and a realistic engraved set of armor. The top image features armored soldiers attacking a large city. To the left, are two text clips, bookending a drawing of travelers in a sunny forest. The top text clip says: "Letyf realized all at once that he'd never seen anyone die before. A thousand thoughts raced in his mind, but they were like arguing in another room, muffled through walls." The bottom text clip says" "And what if your paths cross again?" "Well, if possible, and if my master commands, I'll kill him."" Below the images is a tagline: "...is one small world worth dying for?"

An idyllic forest in summer, with parchment over top, reading: "THE PITCH: Letyf Duilles has no place on a world-saving quest.

Roksa Morthir took everything from Letyf—his sight, his magic, and his future. Now, Letyf must defy his father, his people, and his endless self-doubt to stop Roksa’s war.

To Letyf, Crelan is home.
To Lia, it’s just one more, backwoods fantasy world.

A world-hopping demon, Lia has served heroes and villains hundreds of times before. If Roksa wants her to conquer his home-world, she’ll just have to do it with gritted teeth and minimal complaints about the plumbing. After all, she’s bound to obey—and why would a world like this be worth saving?"

THE COMPS:
Five Book Covers: The Magicians, Nine Goblins, The Goblin Emperor, The Bright Sword, and Brigands and Breadknives.
Text coming off of these books: "I can't Believe it's not Narnia"; "Magical Multiverse"; "Anxious MC"; "Naive, Fish out of water MC"; "No Romance, Deep Friendships instead"; "Classic Fantasy World Reimagined"; "MetaFantasy"; "Action Packed and Bloody"; "Knights and Warriors"; "Lots of Walking"; "ttRPG Player Approved"

Image of A sword, with accompanying text:

FIRST LINES: We landed in my master's home-world with enough force to buckle my knees. As I yanked the heels of my pumps out of the super-heated soil, my master turned to gaze around at the brilliant green hills of his land.
--
Letyf drew back his arrow, sighting down the shaft at a kingbird on a low branch.
The bird cocked its head, beady eyes darting around, but they passed right over Letyf, crouched as he was in the brush. He adjusted his aim, accounting for the faint breeze.
He exhaled, gave the string a touch more pressure, then released.
The arrow arced away—and missed the fat gamebird by a clear foot.

Run. What a powerful instinct.
Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after.

The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden.

What we know:
-Runaway in Hiding
-Fake Identity (turned real identity)
-Mental Health Rep
-Genderfluid and Pan Rep
-Found Family
-90s Small-Town Nostalgia

HEARTLESS HUNTER X SLAVIC FOURTH WING 🎭 She, a humble servant posing as Duchess, is his executioner-to-be. 🐉 He, the arrogant Dragon Prince, must save a kingdom from the encroaching Ever-Dark. 🖤 Neither anticipated falling for the one destined to be their undoing. #questpit #NA #R #F #DF #Q

A gothic-style book cover titled "Root and Ruin." Centered is a glowing, cyan-blue dragon coiled into a circle, its scales etched with faint, runic symbols. Golden, gnarled roots extend downward from the dragon like branching veins against the pitch-black background. Text at the top reads "Enemies to Lovers," "Fated Mates," and "Fake Identity," with "An Agent’s Guide" in the top right. Subtitle reads "80k • NA Slavic Romantasy," and the bottom logline says, "She is sent to kill the dragon. Instead, she might become his only salvation."

A graphic titled "The Comps" in golden lettering. It displays four book covers arranged in a grid: "Heartless Hunter" by Kristen Ciccarelli, "Fourth Wing" by Rebecca Yarros, "Shadow and Bone" by Leigh Bardugo, and "The Witcher: The Last Wish" by Andrzej Sapkowski.

A self-made fantasy illustration showing a halfway transformed, dark-haired man, Prince Konstantin Veliki, with a silver crown and dragon wings. He is carrying a woman, a humble servant Iva, masquerading as a Duchess Zora, in a long, flowing cream-colored gown as they fly through the air. She is his guest but unbeknownst to him, she is plotting to poison him. In the background, a sprawling forest surrounds a magic academy, Kolegium with colorful, traditional Slavic-style onion domes—gold, silver, bronze and green. Each of the domes represents air, water, fire and earth magic respectively. Snippet text at the bottom reads: "Do you always sequester your guests and take flight with them?"

A self-made illustration set in the catacombs under the magic academy, Kolegium, featuring classical-style statues on the walls. Iva, in dark armor, rides a bright, light blue-scaled dragon; it is Prince Konstantin Veliki in his dragon form.
They face off against a monstrous, ethereal shadow dragon composed of wispy, black smoke and glowing eyes — this is Konstantin’s fallen father Tibor Veliki. A brilliant golden sphere of light, relic of the Slavic god of light, Belobog, called Spark of Creation, floats on a pedestal between them. Text at the bottom of the snippet reads: "Let us dance, little one," the Shadow Dragon hisses in a dry whisper of the fallen. "A worthy foe," Konstantin responds. We take to the air to meet the darkness. Two gargantuan winged silhouettes hover in the abyss, suspended in a precarious balance. They mirror one another; two sides of the same coin, champions of Belobog and Chernobog.

When a shared injury reluctantly brings a champion figure skater and NHL-bound hockey player together, they must decide if their love for the ice outweighs their resentment for each other. Welcome to SIX MINUTES 🏒⛸️❤️‍🔥 #QuestPit #R #A #Q

An Agents Guide To SIX MINUTES (photo of figure skater and hockey puck).

The Pitch: When a shared injury reluctantly brings a champion figure skater and NHL-bound hockey player together, they must decide if their love for the ice outweighs their resentment for each other.

The Comp Titles: Revolve, The Favorites, and Off Campus (2026). Tropes include: Dual POV, deal trope, rivals-to-lovers, found family, forced proximity, and “take off that jersey.”

The Blurb: Parker Knight and Barret Keats share two things—their love for the ice and an injury that’s jeopardized both of their futures. Determined to compete in her senior year before leaving her grueling coach and hometown forever, Parker strikes up a deal that could make or break both their careers: he helps her get back on the ice, and she pulls strings to give him one last shot at the NHL. Consumed by the idea of making it pro, Barret finds himself not only fixated on HOCKEY, but the girl that holds his future in her hands. As the season begins, Parker must decide if her passion for the ice, and her feelings for Barret, outweighs her need to leave it all behind.

THE UNYIELDING MONSIEUR DE BLANC MEXICAN GOTHIC x STARLING HOUSE Dark Southern Gothic w/ Horror elements. 🕯️An orphan seeking security ⌛An immortal man bound by a curse 📰A marriage notice that is a trap Nellie must choose: her heart or her survival #QuestPit #Q #A #HR #H #DR

A dark teal and black patterned card for THE UNYIELDING MONSIEUR DE BLANC. The background has vintage deep shades of pink and purple roses on the top of the frame. Centered is a small hourglass made with bones and a skull symbolizing the immortal + horror elements of the story. There is a note on there that the story is 70,000 words and a Dark Southern Gothic with Horror Elements.

A pitch slide with a deep teal background and black magnolia patterns. A skull with purple and pink roses and more deep pink and purple roses act as decorations. The pitch reads: "The Unyielding Monsieur de Blanc follows Nellie Moore in 1872, lured to a New Orleans estate by a marriage notice promising security. There, she encounters a man as captivating as he is complex, a man bound by a curse that has kept him alive for over a century.
As an impossible attraction sparks, Nellie’s search for the truth reveals that some secrets are meant to stay buried, and some doors, once opened, can never be closed again."

Two book covers adorn the card with deep teal and black magnolia patterns, pink and purple roses framing the bottom.
MEXICAN GOTHIC - The atmostpheric dread and family legacy.
STARLING HOUSE - A cursed, burdened hero

Teal and black magnolia patterns in the background along with a pink and purple rose decoration in the top right corner. Other images include, a candlestick with a burning flame, a pocket watch, a burned newspaper with a woman dressed in 19th century attire. The card includes a snippet of the book as below:

Nellie cleared her throat, and he turned slowly. His broad shoulders squared as he measured her with gray, unflinching eyes.

“I do not care for shadows in my doorway. Step forward.”

Nellie could not speak for a moment. Such a man naturally commanded her. He seemed powerful, severe, and entirely too confident. “I—I beg your pardon, sir,” she stuttered, her voice small in the vast room. “I am Nellie Moore.”

A brief unreadable softness touched his features before he stiffened, his expression once again a mask of stone. “I am Monsieur de Blanc, or Mr. De Blanc, as you Americans prefer.”

His thick French accent was like bourbon; it was smooth, but with a burn that unsettled her. Nellie stared, stunned. This was him, the man she was to marry. She had expected someone older, not this gentleman in his late twenties with a face so...strikingly symmetrical.

“Do find your breath, Mademoiselle. I have enough to manage today without adding a fainting spell to the afternoon’s agenda. I’ve never had much patience for delicate women.”

The insult was a splash of frigid water, bringing her back to herself. The orphan inside of her who spent her days scrubbing floors and managing unruly children suddenly bubbled to the surface. She adjusted the lace on her shoulders and met his gaze with a leveled stare that mirrored his own coldness.

“You needn’t worry, sir,” she said, her voice surprisingly crisp. “I am merely trying to reconcile the man in front of me with the one I was promised in the letters.”

A flicker of mild interest passed over his face. “Is that so?” he murmured, arms folded tightly. “Fortune favors you, then. I am not the man from your letters.”
