A Vampire’s Lament 🖤🦇🥀 Book One in the Time and Time Again series. Benevolent vampire Ishmael’s carefully balanced life is disrupted when Edric awakens a love he thought lost centuries ago. #Cupit #PR #GR #LGBT #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #queerwriters
A gothic style original painting of a vampire dressed in black holding a man dressed in white linen in a stone corridor, surrounded by candle light and moonflowers. A pitch card that reads benevolent vampire Ishmael’s carefully balanced life is shattered when Edric, the tutor of his adopted nine-year-old spirit medium son, awakens a love he thought lost centuries ago. A tropes and themes page that reads: DUAL POV, love after grief, queer love and joy, soft gothic, sentient manor, soft fatherhood, ghosts, awkward vampire and sunshine human, Victorian era, queer normative setting, opera house and music, yearning soulmates, and happily ever after A snippet page that reads in every world, in every time, I would choose you. You are the song of the stars, and the whisper among the trees. It has been you. It has always been you.

17yo comic-nerd Zach is a liar. That’s his superpower. So when his best friends break up, shattering the trio, he dresses up as a superhero to get things back to the way they were. But he never expected Stella would ask him to help unmask the guy she’s falling for. Being a hero sucks. #RC #YA #Cupit

Collage-style promotional graphic for the novel Babel on Callisto. Four illustrated polaroid images show two men, Jack (blond) and Elias (dark-haired with glasses), in different scenes: wearing space suits, working together in a lab, leaning close in a quiet moment, and kissing. The background is pink and textured with scientific sketches and handwritten notes. A torn paper excerpt of prose is centered. Text on the images reads “Babel on Callisto,” “Now Querying,” “88K Sci-Fi Horromance,” and “@saraduranauthor.”

Foundling Finn has a secret: he's terrified of sharks. When raiders attack his shark-loving community, he's the last person who can help. But when a terrifying-looking sand tiger shark shares its bond with him, he must venture across the Aedenic Ocean to reunite his shoal. #QuestPit #YA #W #F 🦈✨
a picture of a blåhaj pasted over a photo of the ocean, with the words "the complete guide to Sharkfinn by Arlen Ren" and "a YA eco-fantasy" with yellow sparklesPitch: When 15yo foundling Finn skips the age-old threshing ceremony, the resulting shark bite costs him his future as an atlaesi, protector of the shoal. But when raiders attack his home and its sharks, Finn must team up with fellow survivors Makina - and the terrifying-looking sand tiger shark whose anima he now apparently shares - to reunite their community and save their sharks.

As they venture across the vast beauty of the Nation of the Waves, they discover that the raiders' reign of terror extends far beyond their own tiny shoal, and that if they are to stop them, they must go to depths none would ever have believed possible.Excerpt: The gentle waves lapped at the lone raftway that stuck out from all the others, right at the edge of the shoal's outer structures. At its end was the threshing pool. Finn's heart beat harder as he approached it, his legs starting to wobble. The sea lurched on either side of him, the water night-black and infinitely deep, the moonlight reduced to a glimmering sheen that gilded it. The submerged pool stretched to beyond where he could see its borders, with even the closest of its posts barely visible at all.

As if in response to Finn's presence, several fins broke the water.Read if you like...The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman, The Neptune Project by Polly Holyoke and Exodus by Julie Bertagna; animal companions, the magic of nature, epic adventure and eco fantasy. YA for younger teens!

The image, made with free non-AI stock pictures, shows a horror-comedy novel cover titled "DAD BODIES." The top of the cover reads "THE GAME JUST TOOK A DAD TURN" with "DAD" in a different color. 

The background features a haunted house with multiple towers and illuminated windows against a dark backdrop. At the center is a 20-sided die (D20) used in tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons, with visible numbers including 1, 7, 13, and 19. The die is surrounded by red blood splatter effects.

At the bottom of the cover are six men with expressions of terror and shock. One man is wearing a white shirt over his head. These men are the dads referenced in the title.

Betrayed on the eve of her wedding, Annora enlists charming criminal Madoc to enact her revenge, but when her quest unravels the truth of a trade in wyvern scale and a long awaited prophecy, Annora must choose between vengeance and justice. #QuestPit #W #RF soon to be #AG + hopefully #OS in 2026!
ScaleAnnora Rainecourt would do anything for the boy she loves — the kingdom’s saviour — including defying her low-born status and the nobles who scorn her false arm to prove herself worthy. But on the eve of their wedding Lucan betrays her, and she can’t fathom why. So she escapes into the night, her life of sweet smiles and unfaltering loyalty shattered.

Madoc Emery is running out of time. If he can’t repay the loan on his tavern, his crew — the only family he has — loses everything. So when a beautiful, intriguing maiden appears begging for help in exchange for payment, he jumps at the chance. Problem is, she wants revenge against the untouchable. The Prince’s favoured, and the man prophesied to restore magic to the realm thanks to his discovery of Scale, a weapon forged from wyvern hide. Still, Madoc’s desperate, and Annora impossible to deny, so they strike a deal. His crew will infiltrate Lucan’s empire, and tear him down. 

But when they uncover a horrifying truth at the heart of Scale, Annora is faced with a choice. Vengeance, or justice. And changing paths may just unravel her fragile bond with the misunderstood Madoc, and the prophecy her entire kingdom relies on.Comp titles: House of the Dragon, A Fate Forged in Fire, The Knight and the Moth, Throne of Glass, Six of Crows, A Tempest of TeaMost brides would think a storm on the eve of their wedding an omen, but for Annora Rainecourt it was the greatest blessing she could receive. Because a storm meant chance of a sighting. And what could be more thrilling than that?
She scoured the skies as lightning flashed, illuminating the distant castle and the manor dwellings around it in a shock of monochrome clarity, and there — beyond the turrets — she saw her first of the night. Thin membrane, spindly tendon and bone, that unfathomable combination of sharp claws and curved edges, swiftly flying through slick rain and thick cloud until the darkness crowded in again and she lost it. 
Annora smiled to herself. They always liked storms. The wyverns. 
“They’re quiet tonight,” she said, staring out of the lancet window as rain lashed against the panes. 
Lucan rolled on the bed to face her, the sheets draped between his legs as if she hadn’t been privy to what was beneath them moments ago. “Or perhaps they’re beyond sight,” he said, and ran a hand through long, light hair, pushing it back from his slim face.  
“The view from here is perfect,” she murmured, frowning. 
Lucan’s manor was on the outskirts of Gaet, the small city of Vlintlann that was home to the nobility and merchant class. The east window of his bedchamber had one of the best views of the Kingdom. To the north, Annora could see the long carriageway curving round from the front entrance of the manor to the cobbled road that led to the royal castle — its sharp turrets spearing through mist like the teeth of beasts. To the south, past the gardens and small stretch of woodland were the mountains. The looming black rock surrounded the entirety of Vlintlann, bar the stretch of land where the castle sat. Beyond that was the border with Coperlann and The Disputed. And to the east, in the distance, the shimmering lights from the cramped streets of The Bowl, where those without riches in Vlintlann lived. Her old home, once upon a time.

An Agent's Guide to Careless Whispers, Romantic Suspense, a 97k word romantic suspense.
Various pictures of characters from the book.Pitch & Plot and has the following text:

With their multiple homes and a business portfolio of luxury hotels, the Constantines' lives might be a world away from 29-year-old Listy Powers’ but Troy and his sister Olympia are like family, an unlikely yet close bond forged years ago at university. So when she learns Olympia, badly injured in a car accident, is back home on the Greek island of Paxos, Listy sets off immediately to see her.

Being at their villa, however, means unavoidable proximity with Olympia's very disapproving eldest brother whom Listy has always loved. When they first met 8 years ago, Kris was a married man with a pregnant wife; now he's a widower. But as the attraction they'd fought back then re-kindles, suspicions resurface about Kris' wife's death. Beautiful, manipulative Rianna had not been well-liked. Her speciality was ferreting out people's secrets. And everyone, Listy discovers, has something to hide.

As she unravels what happened to Rianna, the truth threatens Listy’s future happiness and the lives of those dear to her, and she must decide if crossing that line to protect someone she loves is a price she's willing to pay.OPENING LINES - When she hears the footsteps behind her, she doesn't rise from the lounger or look round but just rolls her eyes and takes another gulp of wine, fixing her gaze ahead. Beyond the villa's perimeter wall where the wooded slopes fall away, the sea glimmers under the silver coin of a moon. 
   'I told you to leave,' she says, her voice slurred. 'It's over. There's nothing more to say.' 
   'I have plenty to say.' 
   Her head whips round then. She smiles.

SNIPPET - When she died,' Olympia says in a hard voice, 'I was relieved. All I could think was, we're free of her now. Now we can begin to be happy.' 
   Listy's face spasms. 'But you're not,' she says. 'None of you are. It scares me, Olympia, all this hate. So much hate. Troy has it too. It's like...like it's eating him up. Rianna's dead but she might as well not be, the hold she still has on you all.' 
   Olympia begins rummaging in the drawer again. 'You didn't know her. You wouldn't understand.' 
   'I want to. Tell me what happened the night she died. You said she and Kris were arguing.' Collage of pictures and the title The Vibes, Tropes & Themes & The Comps.
Tropes and Themes are: du Maurier's Rebecca vibes; Found family; Loss; Slow burn romance; Yearning; Obsession; Unrequited love; Secrets; Betrayal; Murder

The Blue Blood Series by Melissa de la Cruz Is used to represent the wealthy elite vampires living in New York, the fish out of water trope, dark secrets, and others.

The Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice is used to represent young vampires rebelling against old rules and customs. Travel and setting also play a role. A plot point was inspired by the novel. 

Yakuza, Japan’s Criminal Underworld by David Kaplan and Alec Dubro, is used to represent some of the vampire rivals business practices. It plays a role in the series arch.

Made from non-AI free stock images.


This image is a book cover design for a novel titled "Happy Death Inc." by B. Van Bodegom. The cover is divided into three distinct horizontal sections:

1. Top Section: Features a cartoonish blue sky with white clouds and a bright sun. At the top, a tagline reads:
"How much would you pay to die with a smile?"
The word "HAPPY" appears in large, playful, hand-drawn-style font, partially overlapping the sky background.


2. Middle Section: A photograph of a deceased man in a suit, lying in a casket. He has an exaggerated smile on his face, almost unnaturally wide and clean, suggesting artificial enhancement or post-mortem alteration. Overlaid on this image is the word "DEATH" in the same large font as the previous word.


3. Bottom Section: A cartoon city skyline in pastel tones, similar in style to the top sky background. The word "INC." is overlaid prominently in the same large font. At the very bottom: A novel by B. van Bodegom

They are holding hands. 3 - A puppet about to have it's strings cut. 4 - An angel with a glowing orange halo casting him in a red light. 5 - A lit lighter being held in a man's hand. 6 - A businessman with steepled fingers. 7 - A weeping man is crouched in a tunnel hiding from the light. 8 - A businessman stares at his shadow which has horns and a tail. 9 - Sand running through a person's fingers.
