I am also not a fan of super-tight deadlines! And super-high daily word counts! But the part I liked about NaNo was daily write-ins. They did motivate me to write, and somehow, just knowing that a bunch of strangers were writing at the same time as I was gave me a gentle push to write...

MAGIC AND OTHER DISASTERS When Noelle strands a team of colleagues in another world, she will do anything to bring them home: face magic, and even confront her own old nightmares. But guarding her heart against a mage king might be even harder than facing dragons. #DVpit #IMM #A #F

#DVpit #IMM #A #F When a summer intern accidentally strands a team of archeologists in a different world, she must return them home, even if it means facing arrogant mages, hiding from dragons, and, above all, guarding her heart against the perfect guy: a mage who is promised to someone else.

#CampRevPit #CRPSparkleSkunks Thank you so much for hosting the cabin with such a cool name. I loved the daily prompts! They really made me look at my WIP from new angles. My goal continues to be traditional publishing, but it's a long, long journey!

A Court of Thorns and Roses, of course. Autocorrect is the real villain here.

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

#CampRevPit CRPSparkleSkunks It's a WIP, so it's hard to tell what the final version will look like, but right now, it's totally "The Court of Thorns and Roses" meets "How to Train Your Dragon". Also, a tree just decided to talk...

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 29/04/2026

Very simple - Anna. The original Anna defeated an evil dragon and liberated his human slaves, making a village for them.

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

Hint: it's not #3! And the MC is from a village founded by a famous hero. Every year the village has a Founder's festival, and one girl born the closest to the date of the festival is named after that hero. So, there are a few dozen women with the same name, but only a few play a part in the story.

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

Nope. I promise there's a good reason for a bunch of characters with the same name!

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

#CampRevPit #SparkleSkunks This is not a love story. This is a story of a daughter searching for her missing parents. In a magical world with dragons, mages, and heroes. Romantasy=>fantasy mystery

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

#CampRevPit #CampTrivia #CRPSparkleSkunks 1. My MC, a supporting character, and a bunch of minor characters all share the same first name. 2. Only dragons can wield fire magic. 3. There's a love triangle between a mage, a dragon, and a half-mage/half-human.

Let's look at the parts of a query letter, using the popular formula HOOK, BOOK, COOK. [ALT: Presentation slide titled "Day 1: The Query Letter" outlining the "Hook, Book, Cook" structure. It includes example metadata and a sample author bio.] #CRPBootcamp

#CampRevPit A serious inferiority complex. My MC is half-mage/half-human and feels like an outcast in either society.

My book is for all the people who would love to see a dragon rock out to an old-school Metallica ballad. #CRPCabinRaids

#CRPSparkleSkunks A dragon who protects a human village instead of razing it to the ground.

030

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

Yes, and it is super helpful. It lets you see plot holes, inconsistencies, scenes that don't contribute anything to the story, etc. I've used it before and will use it again, as soon as I finish the current WIP #CRPSparkleSkunks

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 24/04/2026

#CampRevPit Attention, everyone! This is your future lawful ruler speaking. Drop whatever you're doing and rush to my side. Bend your knee and join my army or watch my Earth mage strangle everyone you love with vicious vines. And once I capture the mage's daughter, we'll take on the dragons!

#CRPSparkleSkunks #CampRevPit My MC is developing a magical connection with plants. She doesn't yet know the limits of her magic, so when she tries to restore a severely damaged garden, she drains her power and collapses. Food (a lot of it) and rest help.

I feel your pain! My library also has long wait lines for popular titles.

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Have you found any good comp titles lately? I've just read a pretty good Beauty-and-the-Beast retelling, but I believe it's adult, not YA. If you're interested, the title is "Kill the Beast".

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Rebel Witch is an excellent book! I am curious how you position it as your comp title, since it's Book 2 of a duology. Is there a specific way of comparing it to yours without mentioning Book #1? Just trying to find new and fresh ways to write my query.

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Now I am curious: what is your subgenre?

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

There are two more books in the series! (Well, Wild Reverence is kind of a prequel).

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Yes! It is a delightful book, and all the cats have such distinct personalities!

Natalie G @ngwrites.bsky.social · 22/04/2026

Congratulations! That's amazing!

#OneLineMC #CampRevPit At twenty-five years of age, full-blooded mages get trained in their chosen careers and flaunt magic at every step. Me? I am lucky my magic showed up at all several weeks ago.
