#PosterPit #PosterPitQ #F #H #A MOSSWOOD An unusual town. A dark, eerie forest. A string of disappearances. Three misfits. A mystery they would die to solve. THE RAVEN BOYS meets PIRANESI by way of David Lynch in this dark coming-of-age with queer & autistic representation!
A poster with an aged off-white background. In the center, a photo of foggy coniferous trees is overlayed with Josefa de Ayala's The Sacrificial Lamb painting. Above it, in a dark red sans-serif font, it reads "11-year-old Analía Monroe only finds solace in her small circle of misfits---her younger half-sister Rajel and best friend June---and the dangerous, magical world of Mosswood deep in the forests of their rural Oregon hometown, but their obsession may have deadly consequences." The photo is outlined with a dark red border. Above the border, in green sans-serif text, it reads "There is something in the woods." Below the lamb, there are dark red blood drips which give way to the title, a green serif font reading "MOSSWOOD" and then "a novel by E.S. Hanson." Below that, in the same red sans-serif font, it reads "Adult contemporary fantasy, folk horror, dark fae folklore, eerie forests." Bordering the image are small golden guardian angel figures.

Writing friends! I reach out to lots of individual #AmQuerying folks, but I wanted to try something a bit structured to help more people. So, I'm starting the Query Navigator Project. I'm currently looking for ~10-15 trench veterans interested in helping newbies! Details & sign-up: bit.ly/QueryNav
Introducing the Query Navigator Project. Pairing experienced queriers with those just starting out. (Graphic shows two cartoon astronauts wavings flags.)How It Works: While mentorship programs focus on improving writing skill and developing & polishing a manuscript, this project is focused on what comes after: understanding and navigating the query process. (Graphic of a cartoon astronaut shrugging.) Experienced queriers will be paired with newbie queriers for 3 months to provide support on the querying process. It’s a query buddy system! (Graphic of two cartoon astronauts high-fiving.)What Navigators Do. (Graphic of one cartoon astronaut talking while another scratches their head/helmet.) Text:
- Answer questions about querying best practices, choosing agents, submission guidelines, etc.
- Be a contact for those “I feel like I should know this” or “I’m embarrassed I have to ask” questions
- Help recognize form vs personalized rejections
- Provide tips for organizing, tracking, and/or prioritizing queries

Participants will also have access to a private Discord server to connect with other participating queriers and navigators! (Graphic of a cartoon astronaut floating while typing on a laptop.)Who Can Take Part? Navigators should have at least 1 year or 1 book worth of querying fiction within the past 3 years, feel able to provide constructive comments with kindness, and be reasonably available for questions and support. Navigators can be agented or unagented. (Cartoon astronaut jumping towards a star.)
Queriers should have a completed manuscript of industry-accepted length for their genre, a query letter (300 words or less), a synopsis (1000 words or less), and plan to actively query while participating. (Cartoon astronaut hanging off a star.)

A ★★★★½ review of Bird (2024)
A marvel. Coming of age magic in more ways than one. We follow Bailey, but she’s not the only one growing throughout this story. Nykiya Adams as Bailey is phenomenal, holding everything together. Barr...
