PITCH

Olive is eight the first time Death comes for her. She’s nineteen the second time. And Olive knows Death always comes in threes.

In the heart of the Appalachian mountains, something wicked lingers in the woods. Olive grew up running barefoot through the trees without fear of what might be lurking. But when the woods begin to devour anything that encroaches with ruthless hunger, and a mysterious man who claims to know both the cause and the cure appears at Olive’s door, she may have to face Death for the third (and final) time. If she doesn’t, the town and the boy she loves will be eaten whole.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

ARRIVAL X PARKS & REC A burnt-out lawyer escapes Earth expecting to build humanity's future, only to discover first contact is just another office job—with stranger coworkers, messier politics, and exponentially more paperwork ✨ Monet Inspired Planet ✨ Flirty Bi Alien ML #QuestPit #Q #A #SF #R

An Agent’s Guide to MEETING OF HONESTY by Florrie Auclair

A 100K romantic science-fiction novel

Title slide shows two characters in a romantic dip: an angry human woman in modern clothes and an alien man with flowing, iridescent hair against a soft pink gradient

Pitch Slide:
First contact has more paperwork than Gloria ever imagined.

When aliens arrive on the same planet Gloria's crew intend to colonize, of course they want the same land: the Sunny Spot, the only area with enough light to grow crops with a unique biome. But their territory dispute is moot if a toxic moss ravages it first. Gloria must now facilitate first contact and work with Emeric, the charming alien leader, to manage their shared collaboration.

From alien strangers to bickering rivals, Gloria finds herself developing feelings for Emeric. Until secrets shatter their growing bond. Now she must weaponize bureaucratic red tape and enlist the help of her crew to negotiate—but it means coming clean about her own secrets. At the risk of losing the only people she cares about (including the alien causing her problems), Gloria must be honest with them—and herself—to ensure humanity has a home and its autonomy.

Comp Slide:
The Left Hand of Darkness
Arrival
Parks & Recreation
I Was a Teenage Exocolonist
Translation State
Overruled

With the text: diverse cast, examination of cultural values, alien diplomacy & communication, bureaucratic satire, lush colony planet, legal conflicts, workplace rivals-to-lovers, and prickly FMC

Excerpt Slide

Image of Gloria, a human woman wearing business clothes with a clipboard obscuring the bottom half of her face

Text:
His other hand pointed to their adjoined palms. Beginning at their pinkie fingers, he bounced to the next digit and enunciated a new, unintelligible word. Each finger anointed until reaching her thumb. This was the oddest difference between their hands; his was longer with an extra joint. Clarity crashed into her. Her inhale sharpened.

Five fingers.

Across the universe, she met a new lifeform and they both had five fingers on each hand.

"Oh my god," Gloria breathed. Ironically, it was their shared features that overwhelmed her. Comfort should accompany commonality, but instead, it made this fever dream of an experience harder to deny. It was tangible that she was standing here with a bipedal humanoid with five fingers, even if his skin was blue and he had rainbow hair and feathery moth antennae. Either she was going to start laughing hysterically or throw up.

Warble, the alien agreed (she had no idea if that was an affirmative).

MY BRILLIANT FRIEND x WE DO NOT PART In post-Revolution Lisbon, Lídia and Isa spend the summer of violence trying to revive a dying friendship at the dawn of a new and uncertain age as their imaginary world begins to crumble. #questpit #A #LF #S #HFic

Picture split in two. On the left side there are two pictures, the background is a picture of the typical architecture of Lisbon, windows with small balconies, and there is a tram going past obscured by the picture on top of it, of a woman with dark hair reading a book. In black and white.
On the right side there is a picture of the gates of Lisbon altered to look neon orange and blue. On top of it is a picture of two young women, one with blonde hair, the other with black hair, joking around as the latter places a pan over the former's head.
In the middle of the overall picture is a cardboard note with a scribble that reads: "Why did she have to come back and ruin everything again?"

For Max, who lived & loved vicariously through Asian classics, being reborn into an AU East Asia should’ve been a dream come true. But the original fairytales are grim. Living idyllically & loving freely will cost others their life according to his curse #Questpit #W #Up #A

There is a graphic of red Asian lanterns hanging from a cherry blossom tree. There’s also text that says “you’re invited to support Red WIP anywhere, anytime forever and always in all universes. Querying later 2025.” In the center is a moodboard with two sides. On the left are modern things: Tampa at night with a glowing bridge, a young man in a plaid shirt leaning over a desk with a pencil in hand, and a thorny rose. On the right are ancient sights: a Japanese temple against a red sky, a woman in traditional Vietnamese clothing, and an Asian painting of a plant with red flowers.

Then Doctor Geni Philistos comes into her life, providing Kallista's crew with much needed medical care.
