Romy thought playing the part of her dead sister to get on the set of CAMP RUNAWAY, a new horror reality show, was going to be a piece of cake, but when castmates begin turning up with ominous grins along w/deadly prompts, she wonders who's playing who. #UnhingedPit #H #LGBT #Q

This is why it's important to review books for indie authors, but also, this isn't a reflection of how hard I hustle; I never stop. That being said, not every agent thinks this way. If you're an agent and my pitch interests you. Reach out.

To save what was gifted by the gods, Ronnie must end an entire breed of witches. Dragon hybrids who feed from beasts. But she’s not the hunter. Death is her destiny and he who must drive the ending force through her chest is none other than her soul’s mate. #questpit #UF #A #Q

Square of nine images. Top left to bottom right: a girl running away barefoot in the grass. A woman and child holding hands. A field of flowers in a dark forest. Bright curtains at sunset. A quote reading “beautiful places hide hideous pasts.” Four girls sitting in a field happy and talking. A woman’s hands reaching from dark water. Pile of old Polaroid photos. A dark graveyard in a forest.

BLACK MIRROR × SEVERANCE × THE GOOD PLACE Having a happy death is a luxury service for the rich and Wren is the rising top salesman—until a cynical coworker and a depressed billionaire force him to rethink it all in a world where even your last smile has a price tag. #GhostPit #A #DS #SF #W

Made from non-AI free stock images.

This image is a book cover design for a novel titled "Happy Death Inc." by B. Van Bodegom. The cover is divided into three distinct horizontal sections:

1. Top Section: Features a cartoonish blue sky with white clouds and a bright sun. At the top, a tagline reads:
"How much would you pay to die with a smile?"
The word "HAPPY" appears in large, playful, hand-drawn-style font, partially overlapping the sky background.

2. Middle Section: A photograph of a deceased man in a suit, lying in a casket. He has an exaggerated smile on his face, almost unnaturally wide and clean, suggesting artificial enhancement or post-mortem alteration. Overlaid on this image is the word "DEATH" in the same large font as the previous word.

3. Bottom Section: A cartoon city skyline in pastel tones, similar in style to the top sky background. The word "INC." is overlaid prominently in the same large font. At the very bottom, in smaller capital letters, it says:
"A Novel by B VAN BODEGOM"
