Presenting my mood board for WE WERE ALL DEFECTS - A YA Dystopian Thriller with lots of delicious slow burn romance. #DVParty
A four-panel mood board with bold white text in the center that reads "WE WERE ALL DEFECTS" over pink tiles, with a smaller light pink banner below reading "A YA Dystopian Thriller." The top left panel shows an empty retro 1950s diner with a pink and white checkered floor and teal stools. The top right panel features a soft, pink-tinted silhouette of a couple leaning in to kiss. The bottom left panel is a vintage, faded photograph of a group of women in matching blue swimsuits and pageant sashes. The bottom right panel shows an angled view of an elevator shaft.

In the query trenches, no two paths to success are the same, but they all deserve a toast! Here are some success stories from the querying community. Their querying journey show that: 1. No timeline is the same. 2. Persistence pays off. 3. You can still gain strides if you self-publish. #writing

If you’re querying, there are a few things you really don’t want to get wrong… #writesky Wisdom from last week's Society Papers: 1. Verify your suitors: Check QueryTracker, WriterBeware, etc. Real agents don't use Gmail addresses. 2. Mind your manners: It’s a small industry. Stay professional.

Marius, who was once the highest ranking executor of the Divine Emperor Akkan's will, finds evidence that Akkan is not what he claims. Akkan is a powerful man, but he is no god. When Akkan announces that Marius will ascend to live eternally in the Divine Realm, Marius fakes his own death and escapes with his apprentice, Lina Together, they travel to the northern wastes beyond the empire, searching for the Fount, a human wellspring of Divine energy and someone who Akkan is desperately trying to find. If Marius and Lina can find the Fount first, they can stop Akkan from accruing near-unlimited power.

The Fount is a teenage boy named Hanetu who has a hero complex and no love for Akkan's empire. He sees Lina conjuring fire with her sword mid-battle, and he's in love, convinced of their destiny to defeat an undefeatable god. They join forces and plan their next move while hiding out in Lina's homeland, but when Akkan's loyalists catch up with them and capture Hanetu and Marius, Lina is left to pick up the pieces.

But hope is not lost. Lina is stronger than she thinks and Hanetu is exceptionally resourceful. Can they make it to the imperial capital to defeat Akkan, all while being pursued by Akkan's enforcers and cultists? And even if they make it, what chance do they have to stop him?Icons of charterers and their roles
