Amanda Lien is querying! 🌈🩸🗡️ @alienwrites.bsky.social · 29/04/2026
THE RED SCHOLAR'S WAKE x THIS GILDED ABYSS A cursed sleeper. A swordswoman losing herself to madness. A vow that may cost them both everything. (Adult fantasy with horror elements, 90k words, querying June 2026.) #QuestPit #A #F #W
A five-image gothic fantasy moodboard for Child of Silk and Shield. A large black and white photograph of a spiral stone staircase descending into darkness anchors the left side. On the upper right, a close-up of hands pulling apart translucent silk or web-like threads. In the middle right, a pale figure in white lies unconscious in dark grass, hands reaching toward her from the shadows. On the lower left, two hands clasping gently, one in a white lace-cuffed sleeve and one in dark fabric against a green background. On the lower right, a pair of ballet feet in pointe shoes standing in dark reflective water, with black liquid trailing down the skin.

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END × JUMANJI When one of them is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—& ball-busting puns—to solve the crime before they're all butchered like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #Q
Poster-style graphic with a black background and heavy red blood splatter. Large distressed white and red text reads “DAD BODIES.” A dagger runs horizontally through the letters, and a 20-sided die showing low numbers appears on the right. Along the bottom are black silhouettes of heads with X-shaped eyes. Beneath, smaller text reads “ROLL FOR FUCKERY,” and at the bottom: “A co(s)mic horror novel by B. van Bodegom.”

💙MARTYR! x THE SHAPE OF WATER 💙 A young artist must figure out what draws—and keeps— her mother in the local pond to save her from the town's ostracization. But the water calls out to her, too... #questpit #q #a #u #f
An upmarket fantasy novel: Nymph's Pond
“My grandfather and my dad both, they wanted this place to become a café. Where people could chat and talk to a really, really nice scenery. Peaceful and quiet, with a little koi fish—” she made a little wave with her hand to indicate swimming fish. “And so I want to take up that dream where they left it off. I want to open the Worthington Gardens. And this place, I thought of calling Nymph’s Pond.”The Pitch:
Damla needs the perfect portfolio to get into art school—and her mother would make the ideal subject. Only her mother refuses, escaping to the mayor’s pond, dwelling there despite the family not wanting her to. But what keeps her here? 
How can Damla convince her mother to sit for her? 
And what is it with the water that calls out to them both?
Snippet:
She decided to approach the figure.
The figure had a stillness to it that was familiar. But there was also an energy to it, one that Damla palpably felt like dew on her skin, if dew was covered in metal. When the figure saw Damla approach, it stood even straighter, opening its shoulders wide, as if bracing for whatever it thought Damla would do. She stopped then as well, by this point quite close to the pond’s edge, ahead of even Stella. She could slide into the pond’s surface since the water had receded quite the distance to gain the height that it did, but doing so — the thought of doing so — made her feel cold all over. And there was this wave, just above her head. She felt as if she’d stepped into a shadow. 
“Tell me this is a dream,” Damla said.
The water told her no such thing. Of course it didn’t. The kind of reality that Damla wanted was only available for Jazmine. She got this instead. Something hard and stony settled inside of her. She couldn’t reach to hit it. Her throat locked up when she wanted to scream. The metallic dew on her face and neck made it hard to move. If this was the sublime, it was the ugliest shade of silver she’d ever seen.
