CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END When their detective friend is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #MY #Q
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.

Coming soon to agent inboxes! • • • ANNIHILATION x BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN 💫two exiled men (and their secrets) 💫one lunar prison (and its horrors) 💫a cosmic entity that wants them dead 💫the love they’ll lose if they don’t survive #SF #H #R #LGBT #amquerying #QuestPit
BABEL ON CALLISTO

Querying February 2025 

@saraduranauthor
sara.duran@bsky.social

COMPS 
The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler, labeled “isolated research station” and “philosophical alien threat.”
The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw, labeled “queer, visceral horror” and “love as a consuming force.”
The Deep Sky by Yume Kitasei, labeled “psychological unraveling” and “fracture under mission pressure.”

PITCH 
“On a lunar prison outpost, two exiled men uncover a cosmic presence waking beneath the ice.

As their uneasy alliance against it twists into something tender and terrifying, they are confronted with the one thing they never expected to find on a dead moon: a reason to live.

But the ice is thinning.”

TASTE 
“Neither spoke as Elias bypassed the security protocol on the keypad. The metal hatch shuddered as it unlocked, slinking back to hidden panels in the wall.

They cleared the first few floors with carrion precision, methodical as Dermestidae stripping a carcass to bone. In Elias’s imagination, the gore thinned into something vaster—the time-lapse unraveling the ruin from above. Wordlessly, corridors were scoured to nothing as he and Jack moved like insects beneath an overhead lens.

As the hours dissolved, their work became abstracted into a cold anatomy, intimacy pared away as cleanly as flesh from the frame until only the architecture of survival remained. When Jack hacked into the collapsed doorway to the next stairwell, Elias marveled at the contradiction: how those same brutal hands had, only that morning, traced him with the delicacy of a scalpel.”

A moodboard featuring nine photos in a 3x3 grid shape. From left to right, top to bottom:

1. A shot from the back of a person wrapping their arm around another person. They’re both leaning on each other, while sitting down. They appear to be next to a river or pond and sitting on grass.
2. Hands holding up a flower crown.
3. A close-up of an elf-like, long pointy ear. Colorized to be almost black and white.
4. A hand holding up dirt with what appears to be parts of a plant. Below it a patch of dirt with more green plant parts can be seen.
5. A wooden sign, pointing to the right, with big letters that say, “HOPE.”
6. A hand being stuck in water. The water seems to have dirt and some debris in it. I interpret it as a river.
7. A rustic village with a winding road, lots of trees and greenery, and a cluster of houses visible on the left.
8. Two hands hovering above a green plant.
9. An assortment of five chickens sitting on a wooden fence. Greenery can be seen in the background.

4. Always Home (Leucadia)
5. Woodland (The Paper Kites)
6. Wolves of Worry (Chance Pena)
7. Waking Up (Sam Burchfield)
8. To Build A Home (The Cinematic Orchestra)Short Pitch:

Set in a war-torn country. An orphaned boy and his older brother feel like everyday is a struggle and a reminder of what they lost. Until one day, when they get the opportunity to move to Greenfield — a small, rustic village on the outskirts of the country and a chance at a real home.

There, the boy meets Sam — a mysterious, closed-off girl with pointy ears. Together the two kids realize that facing their internal fears might not be so scary if they don’t have to do it alone.

WAYFARERS x MURDERBOT x SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN Everything fell apart when the human came aboard.

“Did you hear? There’s a human on board.”

A mood board for my manuscript: "SF heist meets F/NB romance: queer aliens rob the TED conference and complain about their human."

The mood board’s backdrop is the interior wall of a spaceship wall with a single viewport looking out over an ocean planet. There are hexagon-shaped polaroid photos taped to the wall and a string of Christmas lights for cheer. On the right is a diagram of a spaceship on a post-it note with alien writing.	

There is overlaid text:
Priorities:
Make dinner
Remain cozy
Haul cargo
Go for drinks
Pull off one last score
Try not to fall in love

Problems: Gun-happy pirates, nosy crewmates, terrible translator software, cultural misunderstandings, and a ticking clock.

Found family of dropouts and runaways:
terrifying monster (ordinary human)
agender ship’s cook (fussy)
sweet little old lady (giant bug)
loudmouth nudibranch (adorable)
grumpy single dad (with a secret)
autistic tween (with a bigger secret)
renegade lesbian nun (big player)
the mastermind (in over his head)
Frank the cat (sleepy)

Gregory Fletcher takes a scandalous offer: revive Harris's List. But when a childhood friend crosses his path and on to the list he must find a way to save her from the bets cropping up. Henrietta is unaware of the danger, focused on hiding that some days, (s)he's Henry.📚💙 #cupit #RR #LGBT #booksky
Six overlapping pictures in the background contain scenes and portraits of Regency England. In the center is a photo of Harris's List of Covent Garden Ladies, a historical document integral to the plot of The Lady and The List, the novel the collage is referencing. 
There is also a quote from the novel "He would have to cut himself in half, bury all the parts of him that were not identifiable as Henrietta, and try to subsist on a fraction of his personhood."

Dominating the cutthroat world of fine art always comes at a cost. But when a mysterious, deadly island from Ambroise's past reappears on the horizon, her search for answers forces her to choose between the man who holds her future in his hands, and the woman who holds her heart. #WIPPIT #HF #R #A
Painting behind title credit: Erin Kate Archer
Graphic reading "A visitor's guide to The Anandrynes." The background is of a dimly lit Rococo ballroom, with an illustration of two figures in fantastical versions of 18th-century French outfits dancing in the foreground. One girl, Ambroise, has short, wavy red hair and freckles, and wears gold glasses and a religious stole over her goldenrod dress. She is looking with trepidation at a glowing pearl in her hand. The other, Manon, has long, straight white-blonde hair, and a slightly deeper complexion. She wears a mint men's coat with flared sleeves, and holds a black, mouthless mask behind Ambroise's back. The title is framed with white flowering vines, and the painting behind the title is of a group of women in pastel dresses dancing in a moonlit clearing, their arms full of stars."After the appearance of a haunted island caused her to commit an unholy scandal, art history scholar Ambroise is determined to return from her five-year exile with a legacy that overshadows both her past, and the male critics dominating the fine art world. Her career is at the mercy of her professor Michael, who has promised her an audience with the prestigious art Salon in exchange for Ambroise working exhausting hours as the department's assistant. 

But when the island reappears on the horizon, her search for answers leads Ambroise into the arms of Manon, the magnetic president of the Anandrynes, a secretive, all-female academic society who believe the island is an ancient paradise full of precious artifacts. As profane rituals, forbidden knowledge and its seductive leader lure her deeper into the world of the Anandrynes, Ambroise's carnal temptations become harder to ignore, and her faith in Michael and the institution harder to justify. And as the island pulls her closer to its shores, Ambroise must decide who truly promises a path to Heaven: the man who holds her future in his hands, or the woman who holds her heart."Text reads: "Can't wait for me to write 'THE END'? Enjoy these..." next to framed covers of Bunny by Mona Awad, The Lady's Guide to Celestial Mechanics by Olivia Waite, and Portrait of a Lady on Fire, followed by "while listening to these: 'Guilty Pleasure' - Chappell Roan
'Joan' - Madilyn Mei
'Icarus and Apollo' - Ripto
'Passerine' - The Oh Hellos
'Eastward of Eden' - Amelia Day
'Monaco' - Jude York""Ambroise felt it coming, like a shrieking platinum musketball barreling towards the axis mundi of her skull. The wave of heat, the air swallowed up, words withering on her vine-tangled tongue. 
She looked to Michael, episcopal rings tapping against his writing tablet, fine calfskin shoe tapping on the oratorium's painted porcelain floor. A human metronome, always pushing her unflinchingly, mercilessly onward. On the table beside him, an hourglass trickled to a stop. Five minutes passed already?
"I'm so sorry," she said hoarsely. "I've forgotten the rest."
Michael turned to two students who had been counting on their fingers.
"How many times did Miss Sadoul say 'euh' before her memories escaped her?"
"Thirteen, professor."
Michael nodded slowly. "How truly unlucky."

A mock snackfood packet for The Duel in 1660, imagined as a snack by Swashbucklers brand.

The "front" of the snack has an illustration showing a young blond white man wearing flamboyant 1660s garb, stood against a red and purple background of swirling embers, looking upwards with blue eyes glinting with defiance.

This bag is Original Flavour and is advertised as containing "only 2 braincells!" Traffic lights style nutrition facts on the front inform you that "Each 81k serving (1 book) contains: 40% Goofy Action, 20% Trans Rage, 20% Tender Feels, 20% Angsty Boys, and 500% Horrible Fops, percentage reference intake of a queer reader."The "back" of the snack has an illustration showing an adult white man with similar flamboyant 1660s garb but in red and purple instead of blue; he has a long face, long eyelashes, a goatee and mustache, and long coiling dark hair, and he wears a sinister smirk.

The packet proclaims "The junk food historical made from 100% tropes!"

💖✨🏳️‍🌈🛸⓮🎓🧶🕳️ The tangled mysteries of Dark meet the emotional resonance of A Wrinkle in Time, with the speculative science of The Three-Body Problem and the heartfelt tethers of His Dark Materials. More below, also in the Alt text. Feedback appreciated, thanks! #wippit #SF #YA #LGBT #LF #FBW
Brilliance Overland is a prodigy who craves answers and adventure. Her invention— latticed entanglement aperture passthroughs (LEAP)—opens a quantum-based wormhole to a world more advanced, yet far more backward than she imagined. With her best friend Annie, Brilliance enrolls at Avram Circle, the premier science academy in a system of interlinked worlds, hoping to unravel their origins. But in a place where every relationship is entangled, every truth is knotted with lies, and every discovery leads to deeper complexity, Brilliance finds that her will and scientific principles alone can’t untangle the mess.

Brilliance relies on Annie’s empathy to navigate the social brambles rooted in this new world, but as Brilliance buries her own “unproductive” feelings, Annie’s patience frays. When their friendship is tested, Brilliance must confront the tethers that bind her: Unspoken grief for her mother, whose voice and lessons echo as AI in her mind; the causal chains that connect her actions to unintended consequences; and the realization that even in a universe of infinite possibility, some bonds—of love, loss, and home—are impossible to sever.

To survive forces that want to control them, Brilliance must learn that true understanding isn’t just about unraveling mysteries, but about embracing the beautiful, messy tangle of relationships and the tethers that hold us together—even across worlds.

Themes:
- Quantum entanglement as a metaphor for the complexity and messiness of relationships, regardless of time or distance.
- Tethering as both a source of strength (home, love, memory) and a challenge (grief, responsibility, causality)  
- The interplay between scientific genius and emotional intelligence  
- The search for origins—of worlds, of self, of the bonds that shape us

Which is made all the more difficult by the trauma she endured on her war torn homeworld 8 years earlier. Her new life is turned upside down when Molzren pirates attack the Colony in a attempt to abduct the Empress' cousin. The kidnapping is thwarted by Clarke's heroic actions which leads to her being enlisted into the Royal Navy by Captain Lan Rigoc. The first human to be given the honor.

A poster with a backdrop of several wolves, there are four head portraits in each corner; top left, a woman with long dark hair, top right, a man with medium-length dark hair and a short beard; bottom left, a woman with dark hair and one hand covering her mouth; bottom right, a young woman with short dark hair. Text at the top of the image reads “Four werewolves. Three months. Two full moons.” In big font in the middle reads “Eyes Shine Silver in Moonlight”, and below that in smaller text, “A werewolf romantasy by Eliwood S. Gheist.” At the bottom reads “One chance to save a life.”A poster with a backdrop of several wolves, with three blocks of text. First text block: GraveHowl. IronBite. HellFang. BoneClaw. AmberEye. Second text block: The only thing worse than breaking a contract is falling in love with the enemy… Third text block: Five werewolf clans have traded feuds and alliances across time in a long history of love, war, and moonlust. In modern times, the call of the full moon still echoes across duty and clan honor.
Four werewolves are called to protect The Golden Prince for the Church of the Eternal One, unaware of the maze of deceit waiting to ensnare them.

SORRY TO BOTHER YOU × THE GOOD PLACE Wren Vern is a rising star at Happy Death Inc., selling blissful exits to the wealthy—until one client won’t die and another coworker wants to. A sharp, witty satire about capitalism, mortality, and the true cost of a life well lived. #WIPPIT #A #SPEC
a close-up photo of a man lying in what appears to be a casket. He’s dressed in a formal black suit with a white shirt and black tie, and he has a fixed, unsettling smile painted on his face—evoking both artificial joy and eerie stillness. The man’s face is pale, suggesting death, but the smile is jarringly wide, almost theatrical.

The title HAPPY DEATH INC. is split into three bold lines, placed over the man’s face and upper chest in a playful, handwritten-style font that contrasts sharply with the dark theme.

Above the title, a tagline reads:
"How much would you pay to die with a smile?"

At the bottom of the cover, in smaller text:
"A Novel by B VAN BODEGOM"

THE OFFICE X GOOD OMENS A satire of both business and the supernatural, Virgil Mora, Hell's Consultant, must restore Heaven's faith in Hell by saving a vampire-run Ohio gas station in just three months to save his job and Lucifer, the angel he's fallen for. #WIPPit #A #F #LGBT
A grid of 5 images, at the top the words "I DIDN'T EXPECT 'GO TO HELL' TO BE CAREER ADVICE" and at the bottom "HELL IS WORK"

The images are, in order:
1 - A black pawn topples a white king on a chessboard
2 - 8 - A businessman stares at his shadow which has horns and a tail.
3 - The central image is a customized pentagram sigil with the name VIRGIL MORA around it in a circle
4 - A lit lighter being held in a man's hand.
5 - A man in a white suit is back-to-back with a man in a black suit. They are holding hands.
