THE HOST x ❤️ 🤍 & Royal 💙 When Vespertine’s impulsive shadow strands the two of them in a nuclear disaster area (after an equally disastrous romantic getaway), they must disarm & charm a grumpy rebel with a cause to survive a second apocalypse…and each other. #YA #Dystopia #F #SF #LGBT #SFF #DVpit

THE HOST but make it #LGBT Camping in a post-apocalyptic orchard? No one's that desperate for a boyfriend...except Vespertine's flatbrained shadow 🤦‍♂️ Good thing there's a grumpy rebel out there who thinks Vess is too handsome to leave for dead—not that he'll admit it #YA #Dystopian #F #SFF #DVpit

Up next is either a #YA #F fairytale retelling blending the 12 🩰👸 with ATU 451, or an upper #MG #HF set in the shadow of the Akron rubber strikes & featuring Victor Lustig's infamous prison escape. Both outlined and left to simmer too long…it’s a tossup! Which do you want to see first? #DVparty

The blazer Hester had washed & ironed yesternight had vanished. Hester cursed herself, and her flatbrain of a shadow, but mostly herself. (And just for fun, you can find the opening from Hester's brother’s first POV chapter below!) #OpeningLines #DVparty #YA Dystopian #F #LGBT #SFF #Querying

Hester, a tragically competent sixteen-year-old, has cast her future. She’ll do booty boot camp routines at her shadow’s request, flirt with her best friend, and use her new job’s topographical databases off-label to find her shadow-napped brother, Vespertine. #IntroduceYourMC #DVparty #YA #SFF

Happy #DVparty, everyone! This futuristic fantasy #moodboard is inspired by Vespertine, who finds love in an unusual place (i.e. a post-apocalyptic orchard in a solarpunk world constructed entirely from glass). All photos mine, and some were even taken at places in the book! Can you guess which?
