GET IT TOGETHER | 88K | Adult Black Rom-Com ✨ Nothing can stop Cassie and Malcolm, bona fide workaholics, from pursuing a second, serendipitous chance at love, until a tangled web of money, frenemies, and yarn jeopardizes their best-laid plans and threatens to tear them apart.🧶🖤 #QuestPit #Q #R #A

White text and images over a brown background. Agent's guide to GET IT TOGETHER. Est. Brooklyn 2026. 88K. Now Querying.

The Pitch: Nothing can stop Cassie and Malcolm, bona fide workaholics, from pursuing a second, serendipitous chance at love, until a tangled web of money, frenemies, and yarn jeopardizes their best-laid plans and threatens to tear them apart.

What to expect: Rom-Com Antics with Heart & Depth, Second (and third) chances, BIPOC cast of characters, he falls first, but she wants casual, high spice, cafes, clubs, and craft stores, fierce and funny friendships, anti-capitalist propaganda, "what if i just quit my shitty job"

The comps: Kennedy Ryan's can't get enough, Alexis Daria's along came amor, and HBO's insecure

A black adult rom-com of overcaffeinated proportions

White text and image over brown background. Image is of two people holding a disco ball.

Text says: Get it Together - Meet the MCs
She thinks he’s too cool for her, and he thinks she’s too cool for him, and that might make them perfect for each other.

Cassie quit her high-powered job and really wants a craft store.

Cassie loves a good plan, but she certainly didn’t plan to quit her shitty job when her boss screws her over. Determined to leave her corporate baddie phase behind, she devises “The Fun Plan” and swears off dating until she’s figured her life out. Her co-dependent ex was a nightmare, and she can’t have a man throw her off track again.

But when she runs into Malcolm eight years after their one-night stand at his beloved Brooklyn cafe, his willingness to help her out is kind of charming...

(she’s a virgo)

Malcolm owns Brooklyn’s hottest cafe and he really wants her (duh).

Malcolm is shook when Cassie barges into his cafe with a bag full of yarn. Little does she know, he just got an embarrassing lecture from his friends that he’s never beating the workaholic allegations, despite leaving the finance world years ago.

Cassie’s reappearance might be the distraction he needs, and he can show her what she’s been missing. Now if only she didn’t come with a conniving, elitist social circle that could upend everything he’s worked so hard to build...

(he’s a capricorn)

White text and images over black background. Images include pictures of coffee, food, couples, and clubs to represent the energy of brooklyn.

Also features images of artists to listen to: Beyonce, Victoria Monet, Janet Jackson, and Amber Mark.

Text says: Get it Together - Peep the Vibe
It may be winter in Brooklyn, but Cassie and Malcolm are keeping each other warm.

Over a blue background it reads in white text: THE BLURB

BETH has a problem, she has just been dumped by her boyfriend DYLAN for not being outgoing enough. Desperate to show that she can change her ways, Beth comes up with a plan - The 8 Dates of Hanukkah - to bring a new adventurous date to each night of her family’s annual Hanukkah Palooza. Totally normal solution, right? Right! But Beth thinks her plan will work as long as her ex-BFF Joel doesn’t cause too many problems.

Meanwhile, JOEL is keeping secrets. First of all, Beth’s dad is sick and refuses to tell anyone. Second of all, Joel is desperately in love with Beth.

As Hanukkah Palooza begins - amateur magicians, famous dogs, ice-skating medalists, Human Dreidel Fights, and a Passover-themed BDSM night of passion make things - literally - explode for Beth and Joel as they realize they just might be made for each other… if they can get over their past, problems, and secrets.

I once worked on a visual novel game where all the surveys and focus groups said that nobody wanted romance, they only wanted mystery and sci-fi. Then 75+% of clicks in-game went to stories with explicit romantic or sexy themes. www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

pcgamer.com

'These kids do not care about romance': Game devs want to know what today's teens want, and surveys say sex and romance isn't it

Young people want stories about friendship more than romance, say researchers and industry execs.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Well this is grim

weird interaction with a student this week. they kept coming up with weird "facts" ("greek is actually a combination of four other languages") that left me baffled. i said let's look this stuff up together, and they said ok, i'll open a search bar, and they opened... ch*tgpt

and i was like "this is not a search bar" and they were like "yes it is, you can search for anything in here"

the thing that made me feel crazy is like. every kid that's using this as a browser is getting new BESPOKE false "facts." this isn't "a widespread misconception about X that stems from how it's taught in schools." each individual kid is now hooked into a Nonsense Machine

with the "widespread misconception about X" you can start at a baseline. like, ok, in tenth grade we all talk about X thing from history, and that leaves us with some misguided concepts about X, but we can correct that as students get broader understandings of the world

but with this, each child is getting UNIQUE wrong facts they are SURE are correct... because they did what we told them to do! they "looked it up"! they got it from somewhere! it's not a kid making up a belief on hearsay and assumption... it's something they think they LEARNED

this kid was extremely combative with me, and i understood why. i was sitting in front of him and telling him that the internet, a computer, technology, all these supposedly authoritative things... were wrong. and that i, one person, was right. he basically *couldn't* believe me.
