The best way to honor the two who have left us recently, imo, is to keep being as gay as possible

I haven’t been posting lately but it’s mostly because there’s been a lot going on in my life that takes my attention and time. Still writing. Still trying to publish. Just also crushed by the shear pain of everything happening at once. Stay safe my friends. You are loved

The girls got to eat their treats at the same time today which made them so happy. Then of course Ethel wanted to sniff Phoebe’s tail which resulted in Ethel letting Phoebe know very loudly that she is stinky

I give Ethel a treat. She likes it. I give Phoebe the same kind of treat. Ethel likes it. I push Ethel away. Ethel likes the treat a lot. I push Ethel away. Ethel eats phoebe’s treat.

THE STRINGS OF WILLIS MANOR 🥀Grey Dog + My Darling Dreadful Thing🥀 A chronically ill young woman must solve the secrets of her manor before her freedom is taken away. 🥀Aro/Ace MC 🥀Sapphic yearning 🥀Gothic vibes 🥀One location #BluePit #📖 #A #LGBT #T #F #Q

The courtyard of a foggy old manor with text in front.
The text reads: A guide to The Strings of Willis Manor. A 54k adult sapphic domestic suspense.

The courtyard of a foggy old manor with text in front.
The text reads: Excerpt.
My body was my ultimate betrayer. It was forever my enemy, stopping me at every turn, and never allowing me to exist in myself with peace. I wasn't even allowed to be wounded by being forgotten.

It felt wrong in every aspect. In how it hung off me, how others saw it, how it fought back against me. The constant battle of it, to get it to do exactly as I wanted despite the illness, was a constant stream of thought in the back of my head.

I hated it, and it hated me. It had even stolen my hatred for it. In another life — another body — I could look at that hatred and determine that I was unequivocally born wrong. Not in the way I was born wrong, but in the way of one's true self hiding just beneath the flesh.

Even if I wanted to mold the flesh into a correct image of who I truly was, I couldn't. I was trapped within myself.

The courtyard of a foggy old manor with text in front.
The text reads: Pitch and Comps.
Thistle Willis has spent her whole life suffering from a mysterious illness. Confined to the sprawling Willis Manor, she has few comforts. Those that she holds dear are threatened when the cruel Mama attempts to bend or break her into submission.
Three books have arrows pointing to bullet points.
Grey Dog by Elliot Gish: resisting the social norms to be a "good woman"
The Lamb by Lucy Rose: Grief at what a relationship could've been. Dark fairytale vibes.
My Darling Dreadful Thing by Johanna van Veen: Mysterious estate with secrets hidden in the walls.

The courtyard of a foggy old manor with text in front.
In the center is a moodboard surrounded by bullet points.
Black butterflies on a yellow wall. A hand holding puppetting strings. Two arms covered in black strings. A desk topped with papers of sketches. Someone silhouetted as they look outside from a wheelchair. A cabinet shelf filled with small corked jars with handwritten labels. Close-up of a greenhouse window. Aerial view of a labyrinthian garden. A cluttered Victorian-esque room.
The text reads: Themes.
Chronic illness rep. Queer rep. Dark magic. Forced domestication. "Female" rage. Body horror.
Content warnings: emotional and physical abuse, physical violence, parentification, neglectful parental figures, isolation, medical malpractice, death, gore, body horror
The text reads: Themes.

DEATH & THE DREAMER NOSFERATU X ONE DARK WINDOW An enchantress with the forbidden power to hijack daydreams must save her hired guard from a parasitic necromancer who uses the life magic of murdered men to animate his dead lover’s body. #BluePit #📖 #A #F #Q

Mood board for the fantasy novel Death & the Dreamer: the sky in a forest, a mossy angel statue, a distant castle, a vase of wilted flowers, a doorway to a castle, skulls in a necropolis, gravestones, a fireplace. Tropes: dark fantasy, morally gray protagonist, necromancy, forbidden magic, toxic love. Content warning: implied and off page non-graphic sexual abuse (male victims) and violence

Inspiration for me can come from a mix of stories some brilliant and some dog shit. To at least highlight the brilliant here: Stephen Graham Jones, Anne Rice, Shirley Jackson, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Alix E Harrow to name a few. The gothic, the weird, and the unexpected have always drawn my attention.

Gloria is truly a manifestation of my annoyance with stories killing off female characters in order to raise the stakes for a male character. She is an exploration of autonomy and continued humanity after death. #BluePit #amquerying

Jocelyn Shea Faust @jocelynsheafaust.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

The antagonist of this story is less of a character and more of the ever present heat of summer and its decaying effects. Trying to solve your own murder is made that much harder when the elements are doing everything in their power to turn you into bones. #BluePit #amquerying

Jocelyn Shea Faust @jocelynsheafaust.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Gloria is my main character because in any other story, she wouldn’t be. She’s the fridged girlfriend used to bolster another man’s story. Except that she’s living past the end of her myth and she’s coming for blood 🪚

Hello there, I’m a horror and fantasy writer with a great love of death, undeath, and the gothic. I’m a querying writer who believes in reading broadly and deeply. My favorite book is Dracula (me and vampires go way back) and I’ve been writing since I was a teenager. #amquerying #BluePitHype
