pitch

By night, she is La Última, the last bone-painter who turns skeletons into pieces of art, ready to be sent into the afterlife–La Eternidad. By day, she is Madalina Carvajal, heiress to a legacy she doesn’t want- no money, and no future. All she wants is to save her ailing sister, Marianela, but when her parents betroth her to crown prince Ceferino de Argüello, all seems lost.

When the King offers La Última a life-changing sum to paint the late queen’s bones, she takes on the task, unwilling to give up her livelihood, her connection to her bone-painter grandmother. When her sister succumbs to her illness, all seems lost.

Ceferino may be the heir to the throne and have the world at his fingertips, but losing his mother has left him hollowed. He couldn’t care less about his bride-to-be; he only wants to see his mother again. When he finds a spell to speak to the dead, he jumps at the chance… but the spell goes awry, and Madalina and Ceferino fall into La Eternidad.

Together, they must find a lost pair of sentient bones and work together to gather Saint-blessed artifacts to revive Marianela and achieve their respective goals. Bickering all the way and trying not to acknowledge their growing feelings for each other, the artist and prince must race through the afterlife to find the missing bone before the full moon, or else their souls will be stuck in La Eternidad forever.

Excerpt - the reverent bones

A beautiful day in the underworld... until...

Excerpt reads:
Madalina whipped her head around and scampered down the rocks, making a beeline for him. Ceferino stared up at her, watching her carefully bend down next to his chest. Her eyes twinkled with concern, and the pinkish moonlight backlit her dark, mahogany hair. She looked like an angel.
“Oh, thank the Saints,” she huffed, short of breath. “I was getting worried.”
“I think you broke my wrist,” he moaned. “And possibly my ribcage.”
“You fell on top of me,” grumbled Madalina, incredulous. Had her eyes always been so beautiful?
“The first time,” he corrected, with a sigh. His right leg had begun to throb, too. “This time, you fell on me and probably broke several of my precious, precious bones. Possibly forever. Who will nurse me back to health?”
“Oh, please.” Madalina rolled her eyes. “Nurse you back to health? You seem just fine to me, only a bit scuffed up.”
“Again, you must have broken one of my bones. I am not just fine,” he lamented. “In fact, I might die.”

CRIMSON IDOL 🩸 Adult Science Fantasy WIP, EVITA x STAR WARS x CLEOPATRA “Pick me a fruit. Write me a poem. Raise me an army, if you’d like. But none of that is of much importance to me. No, all that I ask is that you know me. Fear me. Love me. Only then will I be content.” #W #A #SFF #SF #questpit

intro to Crimson Idol

Crimson Idol is an Adult Science Fantasy WIP that reimagines Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar through the eyes of Cleopatra.

The bottom part of the image contains two mannequins dressed in a roman styled long crème gown and long black hair (left) and a 1940s soldier-inspired outfit with a long cape (right).

In between the mannequins are small heart glass beads to act as bullet points for a list that reads:

excerpt

"“His kisses fell over me like stars. Sweet and light one moment and then harder, deeper. Some of them stung, and some did not, but I took it all in as the tide took its bounty from the shore.

I enjoyed his attentions, and I let him know it. He did not touch me in the way that Altan touched me; he did not kiss me as Altan did. Even then, I found it difficult to push thoughts of him away. But it is impossible not to compare one lover to the next, no matter how hard you try. There is always a bit of one that you yearn for, despite yourself. Despite everything
.
Cato touched me as though I were an idol. His fingers caressed and moved along me as though my skin were a marvel, my face a statue. Altan was much more reciprocal; what I did to him, he would do to me. With Altan, it was a fervent affair that I’d liken to war.”

BURY OUR BONES X TLT X Mad Max: Fury Road — in space, with #ownvoices sapphics! Asteria wants to bring the entire universe to its knees. Calypso wants to stop her. But their secrets, ambitions, and obsession with each other threaten to unravel everything. #QuestPit #Q #A #SF #F #LGBTQ

an agents guide to The Brightest Star in the Sky. adult sci-fi fantasy, lgbtq+

a purple and gold spacey sapphic moodboard and a pitch.

12 years ago, Asteria became a god—almost. a group of heroes hid the last bit of power she needed to consume, and they've been running since. the heroes and their daughter Calypso have spent that time building a weapon to kill a god.

when Asteria captures Calypso and her crewmates to keep the heroes from using the weapon, Calypso sees her chance to fix everything. she plays a dangerous game, drawing Asteria in to find out her plans, tip off the heroes, and guide the god-king into the weapons crosshairs.

and as long as the god-king doesn't consume her first, it'll work.

perfect for fans of BURY OUR BONES IN THE MIDNIGHT SOIL (toxic, obsessive sapphic romance); SOME DESPERATE GLORY (queer, dark tones and spaceships); TLT series (magic lesbians in space); Mad Max Fury Road (yes it's a cult but make it Aesthetic); Borderlands series (futuristic mayhem, space travel, and magic)

adult sapphic dark sci-fi fantasy / 100k words / first in a planned duology / dual-POV

Reads
Crimson Idol

"CRIMSON IDOL is an Adult Science Fantasy WIP that reimagines Shakespeare's Julius Caesar through the eyes of Cleopatra."

To the right, there is a black and light blue tragedy mask.

Below are the comp titles, which read:
"Revenge story" and below it is an image of the cover of Heavenbreaker
"Death magic" and below it is an image of the cover of To Gaze Upon Wicked Gods
"Celebrity to Politician" and below it is an image of the Evita (musical) poster from 2025, which starred Rachel Zegler)
"Sci fi x Fantasy" and below it is an image of a Star Wars: A New Hope Poster

Depicts many images on the moodboard. Top left reads "The center of this man's attention was a very bad place to be. Right of that is an image of a blue-lit man with his own image behind him that is more blue. Right of that is an image of Rachel Zegler with a blindfold, from her Lady Jane Grey look at the Met Gala. The rightmost top image reads "If I cannot bend Heaven, I will raise Hell."

The next image on the far left is an image of pitch-black hands holding many stars. To its right is a smoky-ish makeup eye look of black and glittery purple. To its right is an silhouette image of a woman's body floating in a green sea of stars. To its right is an image of a hand with a breaking string of pearls.
Below this row, all the way on the left, is a side view image of a woman wearing a silky purple-blue dress with pearl and jewelry sleeves. To the right of this is an artistic depiction of an explosion with many rainbow colors in space. To the right of this is the back view of a red dress with gold laurel accents on the shoulders and back. To the right of this is an image of a blond man pressing his fist to his mouth in concentration.
Below this row is a picture of a blond man facing left with his eyebrows raised very slightly, gold hair of curls going down to his neck. To the right of this there are two images near the same size; the top one reads "We are here to make another world" and the one below it artistically depicts a man whose green skin is transparent, revealing his rib cage and veins glowing. To the right of this, also on the bottom, is an image of Director Krennic from the Star Wars franchise, looking smug.

Pitch
Calista Peralta only wants what the Gods willed: her throne returned from her usurper siblings. Presumed dead, the exiled regent has spent years biding her time, using her Gods-given gift – the ability to kill without touch – as an assassin for hire, waiting to return home. An opportunity comes in the form of Cato Janus, a general and politician who offers his full military support... so long as she pretends to be his fiancée to bolster his campaign for Grand Chancellor.

Lost in the web of a world with political influencers and die-hard fanbases, Calista is jarred by the celebrity culture of Cato’s world. Soon, she becomes ensnared by her newfound fame, remembering what power tastes like. She gets caught between Cato’s witty and passionate right hand, Altan, and Cato himself, whose status and prowess promise her more power than she’s ever had. Maybe more power than the Gods themselves. Calista must decide how far she will go to help him and enact her revenge, because Cato’s ambition might cost her everything.

The image is deep purple and red, a blurry depiction of the Roman Forum at night.

Label reads "Crimson Idol Starter Kits"

The bottom left is labeled "Calista" and shows a pearl string, a necklace, a golden laurel crown, an orange off-the-shoulder dress with gold embellishments, and a sapphire blue feather boa.

The middle top is labeled "Cato" and shows a 40s-inspired green military uniform with a cape, a gold cuff, a general cap, and a silver scepter.

The bottom right is labeled "Altan" and shows a long, deep Prussian and black toga with arms crossed in front, a silver laurel crown above it, a single red drop earring, a black and luminous blue broadsword, and a glass of champagne below it.

text of snippet from book

“I am certain you know this story already, but I want you to hear it from my own lips.
My father put the crown on my head without asking. It was a heavy burden, even if it was momentary, for my eleven year old head to bear. Darkness swam around the edge of my vision while my face went very still. I could feel only one thought echo within me: This is not meant for me. This is not mine.”
