F/NB WAYFARERS x MURDERBOT Ship's cook Tai is horrified to learn their new crewmate is a terrifying alien: an ordinary human woman. Now Tai's stuck with bickering crewmates, sinister criminals, explosions, and worse, a human who wants to be friends. #WSPit #WSPitQuerying #Q #SF #A #R #LGBT #Dis #ND
Mood board/Agent's guide for my novel CARGO -  a queer SF/heist/romance - 113,000 words

"Did you hear? There's a human on board."
A graphic of the wall of a spaceship with sticky notes and polaroid photos taped up. There are twinkle lights hanging from the ceiling.
alien ship's cook (fussy, anxious) + terrifying monster (ordinary human)PITCH:
Tai’s terrified of humans. Everyone is. Violent pack hunters, humans are notorious for their strength, sharp teeth, and carnivorous appetites. But the ship’s cook is safe among the multispecies crew of the cargo hauler Coreward Baker: everyone knows the warrior species rarely leave their own space. Then Captain Raz hires Clarke, a human horticulturist.
Even after Tai overcomes their fear, they can’t stand Clarke. She’s bossy. Annoying. Useless in the galley, bad in a space suit. She might as well be cargo. Worse, she’s intent on befriending Tai—and why can’t they stop thinking about her, anyway?
That’s when things go wrong. As Tai starts to realize their feelings for Clarke, they’re horrified to learn that nobody on their crew of dropouts and runaways is quite who they seem, least of all Clarke. And it’s no coincidence. Raz reveals they’ve each been handpicked for a heist he’s spent years planning—and no one’s allowed to say no.

PRIORITIES:
make dinner
remain cozy
haul cargo
go for drinks
pull off one last score
try not to fall in loveFIRST PAGE:

“Did you hear? There’s a Human on board.”
I choked on my noodles and turned to stare at the diners at the next table. Like most of the restaurant’s patrons, the pair had hidden their profiles, a halfhearted attempt at anonymity.
“Gross,” the speaker’s crewmate said, oblivious to my alarm. “I hope it leaves soon.”
“Don’t let it hear you say that,” the first worker laughed. She made a show of looking for Humans, her eyes darting from table to table.
It. I frowned. I knew the workers’ language distinguished between people and things, and ‘it’ was an unkind choice of words at best.
The second worker shuddered. “I don’t know why we let them come here.”
The first laughed. “Are you going to stop them?”COMPS:

Such an Old-Fashioned Word (An Agent's Guide) By Floyd Martínez
THE -PITCH
Three Friends, One "Love" Story
For a while, Anissa, Peyton and Charly were all each other had. Friendship is an
involuntary reflex. Eut as they keep aging out. of their twenties, doubts about their bond start to creep up.

Peyton seems to get nervous when Charly hugs him, and blushes scarlet when Anissa smiles at him. But that's stupid-right? Can you- even love-two people like-that. at the same time?

Anissa has secretly been binge-scrolling through aroace tumblr blogs for weeks now, it all seems to click, but she wants to be a mom, always has. Rahim from the marriage app is nice, but would he accept her?

Charly has no problem getting people heartbeats to pick up, but married life is not his thing. He just wants to write his scripts, marriage would just be a distraction.

Love is different for everyone, they might learn it the hard way though.
VIBES:

FLEABAG x PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER
“Anti-Romance” Novella First Person Three different POV
SETTING: Film School in the West End of London,
Third DimensionalCharac:ters/Cozy Vibe/ Mid-20s Coming of Age story
CHARACTERS:
WIP STAGE: 25% Completed (1st draft)
Charly Ravenna: 2045 Oscar Winner for Best Original Screenplay/ Proud Trans Latino Boy/Fave movies: Seven Psychopaths
Anissa Raphaëlle Diop: Storyboarder extraordinaire/Comic Geek /Fave movie: V for Vendetta
Peyton Evans: Future Composer/ Dad Friend/Fave Movie: the Wall
Charly’s POV: I think I just might be doomed, Iaccidentally and through no fault of my own, to get randoms to fall in love with me…. I fucking hate that.
I roll my eyes at the text on my phone’s screen, turn it off and then gaze back at the script in front of me. Babe is a couple’s monniker. A way for someone to claim you in the name of love, romantic love. We met for drinks and came back to my apartment for some light roleplay… once. Seriously? This is a fucking nightmare.

Anissa’s POV: “Yeah, it’s pretty big.” I agree. “But I think I’m ready, my bachelor’s will be ready next year, it will be my recovery anniversary around the same time and I…”  I trail off. Then sigh again.
“I really want a baby.” There I said it.
I don’t expect any judgement from my best friend, nor anybody in my broader social circle for that matter. But it still feels weird to be so open about what I want. Maybe my therapist is right and I did build some protective walls around myself over the years… or something like that.
“You’l be an amazing mum,” Peyton says. Lightly punching my shoulder with affection, my heart does a bit of a summersault. “The world could use more of those.”

Peyton’s POV: Sure, I'm the bloke who lives in a trailer on the outskirts of the city, but it's mine. The apprenticeship degree does earn me money, aside from his gig at the local cafeteria, and music producing for movies is also the only career that doesn’t make him want to bang my head against a wall...   I am also the bloke who needs to prove time and time again his rich family doesn’t want anything to do with him, nor with his disabled uncle (the only person in said family who treats me like an actual human being), so the government would also take a bit of pity on us and help us out. 

I'm just Peyton, who loves his best friends more than anything and isn’t quite sure how he landed such amazing people. But dammit if he's not going to fight for them…

 That is my truth

#WIPSnips “metal” Akachi in her cell after being arrested for hacking. #WriteSky #WritingPrompts #WritingCommunity
Akachi lay on her cell's bed with her eyes closed. She had a small braille device resting on her chest scrolling through text under her fingers. It was the novelization of the film RedNun Blue Nun 4: The Caskets of Captain Carter Candela. 

Akachi's vision didn't work in her cell. Occasionally she thought she could see little flashes of light or color but she remembered the same from after the Hippolyta accident and before she got her new eyes. It was just her brain inventing signals it wasn't actually getting.

The bed was hard metal under a thin, cheap mattress and sheet. Her orange jumpsuit itched. She felt all of it a little more with her eyes off. She'd always been more aware of touch and sounds when her eyes were shut off for any reason. It had been over a week now. She hadn't been without her eyes in that long since the accident.

New one from a new story which is just a nugget of an idea. The Ballad of Milton Smith. It's very rough. #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #WriringPrompts #Westerns ?? 😂 #TBoMS
	“No, no. Your Mom told me ‘no more Milton Smith’. She was very particular about it.” I wagged a finger in an imitation that my daughter would have slapped my hand for. My granddaughter found it delightful, clapped her little hands together while her younger brother threw a palm over his mouth to cover his chuckling.
	“Now you two kids need to get some sleep. Maybe I’ll read you the one about the Barnowl. You love that one.”
	The mirth stopped in a heart beat, two pairs of young blue eyes locked onto mine. I wondered if between the crevasses of time, they could still make out the mischievous twinkle that would give my game away.
	My grandson looked stern, a pout on his lips. But his sister, quick as a bullet from a six shooter, had me pinned. She smiled triumphantly as she folded her arms, “You never listen to mommy. You promised.”
	I cracked instantly, set myself with a groan into the creaky old wood chair. “It's a terrible song of metal, sand and blood. The Barn owl would be much nicer,” I argued with a half smile.
            Two pouting faces were my reward. My grandson furrowed his little brow, “You said a story not a song Grampa.”
            I shrugged. “Okay, okay, it's a story. Tuck yourselves in and let's go visit the tragedy of old Milton Smith. Yehaw

Mood board of my upcoming Space Opera We Sang Down the Empire. It features ephemeral and evocative art of artist Joshua Mays to convey the spritual element of the martial art of sound that is at the heart of the book. There are women of color in space age futuristic background and magic practices.

For this #DVParty I'm posting the opening lines of my three main characters! #WritingCommunity
I think I just might be
doomed, accidentally and
through no fault of my own,
to get random lads to fall in
love with me.. . I fucking
hate thatI glance at Charly as he is
exiting out of the
bathroom-from my little
corner on the makeshift
stage of the café
for a few
moments, before he walks
towards me, I bite my
tongue to avoid bringing up
the fact he looks like he has
not slept in two weeksI'm a bit of a yapper, I'll
admit. I can get lost in the
whims of my brain as my
vocal chords turn those same
whims into words. As is
demonstrable by the fact it
takes me about ten seconds
to realize Peyton wasn't
following me anymore.Anissa, Charly and Peyton

Day 1-Moodboard/Art Hey everyone! Pictured below are the main characters of MAEVE MONROE AND THE SUNKEN PLACE. The titular character (and narrator) is in the middle, and you'll learn more about her tomorrow😊 I'm excited to share this story! artwork by uncomfortcharacter on IG. #DVparty #MG #F
Left to right:
(Left) A 13-year-old Native American/Māori boy with long curly hair tied in a ponytail. He wears tiny gold hoops in his ears. His uniform is lilac and gold. A lilac jacket with the initials MA stitched into it, a gold vest with purple lining, a gold tie, and plaid, purple pants. The tallest of the group.
(Middle) A 13-year-old Black girl with light blue hair styled into cornrows. She has multiple piercings on each ear, including two dangling crescent moons. She has a mole under her eye. She wears the same uniform as the previous boy, but her jacket is buttoned up and she wears a skirt. She has a slight gap between her two front teeth. Much shorter than the boy on the left, slightly taller than the boy on the right.
(Right) A 13-year-old Black/Filipino boy who's wearing the same uniform as the previous two. He's added a dark purple hoodie to his uniform. His dark hair is sectioned into twists. He's wearing circular, golden-rimmed sunglasses. A small, red fox is perched on his shoulders.

happy #DVparty!! as usual, I’ll be yapping about HOW TO COME HOME, my romantic historical novel about an ex-Prohibition crime lord & a disabled general store owner reckoning with their pasts to build a future together 🫶 comps: PEAKY BLINDERS, Kristin Hannah, Cat Sebastian
Moodboard for HOW TO COME HOME:
Top row: a pair of glasses on a cluttered desk, a 20th-century cash register, a bed with rumpled sheets
Middle row: Painting of a hand extended out from a jail cell holding a cigarette, a dark-haired man and a blond man embracing on a bed, a general store storefront
Bottom row: A piano dappled in shadow, a cornfield at dusk

This is an older drawing of Irene playing with her Gameboy late at night. She's currently at her Abuelo's place in Camuy, Puerto Rico & she starts to notice that there's something off about this guy. #DVParty #MG #F #PF #Q #LGBT #OWN #OV
My protagonist, Irene Rosales Vivas, playing with her Gameboy. The character is from my middle grade portal fantasy, The Amulet of Kakata. Drawing was done by me.

Hi #DVParty! In the Death and Diffraction of Safa Rizwan, Safa is on the verge of death when she makes a desperate bargain with a jinn. If she finds the 3 items most important to her, she has a second shot at life. The only problem? She has 1 month & he's wiped away all of her memories. #YA #F #S

For this #DVparty I'm posting the moodboard of my favourite character: Anissa Raphaëlle Diop! #Writersky
A pair of black combat boots/ "Don't miss out on 95% of your life to weigh 5% less"/ A diary of black scribbles with a read rose

The mask from V for Vendetta/ A black girl with a black hijab / An aroace flag

A quran next to a candle / "Prettiest girl in the morgue" / a slipknot backpack with a bunch of metal pins
