#CampRevPit #CRPWizardWasps I'm sworn to secrecy. Not for me, but for my people. They shouldn't bear the weight of my choices. Now this boy storms in, blind to the fallout, ready to unravel everything. One person can be wise. But people can't be trusted to do the right thing. Why can't he see that?

I feel like I'm closing on the final leg of a marathon. I still have a few people reviewing my pages but I'm nearly there. My focus is on reading over writing for the time being. But it's a welcomed break. #crpwizardwasps #camprevpit

Hi #revpitwaiting! I don’t write to music, but I play the Fallout 4 main theme when I think about Harlow James. Its eerie softness gives me chills when I picture him reaching the city—skyscrapers looming, forgotten technology being restored. A ghost of a world, but he finds a flicker of hope.

Hi #revpit #revpitwaiting! I can't think of anything specific but I do love this interaction.

“I guess you just have to know how to talk to people.”
“I know how to talk to people,” Captain Hahn seethed.
“Alright,” Harlow held his hands up towards both men. “We all agree. You are both men of the world. Now, if you haven’t noticed, there is a battle going on and we are the spoils that go to the victor.”

Harlow loves science, animals, and savoring every bite of food. He and his late mom dreamed he’d help mutated creatures—not end up a scavenger like his dad. With his cute robot buddy, Astro, and his etymology-obsessed friend, Bee, he’s determined to live his dream. #revpit #revpitwaiting

Time is unraveling. Streets are vanishing. Clocks tick backward. And for Ellie, the only way to fix it is to step inside the Clockwork Labyrinth—a shifting maze of forgotten histories & hidden truths. Now she must uncover the secrets hidden in her own past. #MGFantasy #RevPitWaiting #AmQuerying

A stylized book cover features a golden maze filled with intricate clockwork gears, glowing with a mysterious light. A silhouetted girl stands at the entrance of the labyrinth, with a black cat beside her. The title The Clockwork Labyrinth is written in ornate golden letters. The surrounding frame has a vintage, decorative design.

A glowing, golden infinity symbol in the background. The text describes the premise:
“When streets vanish and clocks start ticking backwards, eleven-year-old Ellie senses time itself is unraveling. Alongside her mysterious companion Ninja Cat, she must enter the Clockwork Labyrinth—a shifting maze where forgotten histories are guarded and dangerous truths await. To restore balance and save her friends, Ellie must confront the secrets hidden in her own past, before time runs out.”

A passage from the book is displayed on parchment-like paper with decorative borders. The excerpt describes Ellie running through a shifting corridor, chased by the enigmatic Timekeepers, as Ninja Cat hisses beside her. The corridor tilts, patches of floor disappear into swirling voids, and reality itself begins to warp.

A list of themes:
• Time Manipulation
• Alternate Realities
• Forgotten Histories
• Friendship Bonds
• Courage
• Self-discovery
• Mystery & Adventure
• Mythic Undertones

Beside the list, five book covers are displayed as comps:
• Rooftoppers by Katherine Rundell
• His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman
• Coraline by Neil Gaiman
• The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill
• The House with Chicken Legs by Sophie Anderson

She’s a mind reader and he’s a thought sower from enemy triads— but they can’t use their abilities on each other. Fate and Her Atrocities is an adult fantasy with an enemies-to-lovers subplot. It is influenced by Lithuanian mythology and the legend Jurarte and Kastysis.
