A query letter issue I've repeatedly seen lately is the plot summary reading like this: "X happened. Then Y happened. Then Z happened." Instead, it should read: "BECAUSE X happened, Y happened. BECAUSE Y happened, Z happened." Show how the events in your novel are connected. #Querying #WritingTip

I could be convinced to find alpha readers for my currently untitled #YA #CF #R Calliope is a demon hunter who wakes up one day to find her short term memories are broken. Orion is a reaper tasked with retriving the soul of an angel who escaped proper death and is now hiding in Calli's body. #ABCPit

A photo of the Orion constellation, a close up of a hand holding up a crown, the tarot card Death, a hand + arm that slowly turns to black smoke, hands that are completely covered in black and sparking, an eye where the eyeball is black and the iris is white, and a photo of Curran Walters.

Hey all you crazy #CampRevPit people, I'm looking for potential critique partners, alpha and beta readers for my horror comedy novel (even just a chapter or two). I've included the brief rundown in the image below. Let me know if this nonsense is your kinda jam. #A #H #WIP #ABCPit
IT Can't Happen Here	

As children, Ellis Bolling and his friends defeated a malicious entity from the beginning of time that terrorized their tiny New England town of West Windham.

Twenty-two years later, this unspeakable horror has somehow returned and is… running for mayor? Now, 35-year-old Ellis and his aging millennial friends must reconvene to figure out not only how to defeat it again, but why the town seems to be fine with knowingly electing an evil monster that preys on children.

A mash-up of Sinclair Lewis’ 1935 anti-fascist novel It Can’t Happen Here and Stephen King’s 1986 horror classic IT – the obviously titled IT Can’t Happen Here is a political horror comedy that takes the subtle art of satire and drowns it in a storm drain.

On a grassy green hill beneath a starry night sky, the caterpillar nibbles on a tree while the mantis and the firefly work on their stories. The mantis lays in the grass writing in her journal with a fountain pen and her very tall stack of papers beside her. The firefly sits in the branches of the tree with a laptop. The firefly’s butt is glowing brightly so the mantis can see to write.

On a grassy green hill, a bright green praying mantis, a black and orange firefly, and a small green caterpillar examine the mantis’s very tall pile of story notes. The firefly is measuring the stack of paper with a tape measure while the caterpillar looks concerned. The stack of pages is waist-high to the mantis. A Campy RevPit flag flies from the top of a nearby flagpole. There is a bright blue sky with fluffy white clouds in the background. The text above them reads, Day 11 ScavngrHunt

On a grassy green hill beneath a starry night sky, the firefly clings to a branch and dangles a tied stack of story notes from a  stick with the label “Darlings” written on the top page. The caterpillar reaches for the tied bundle of notes with mouth wide open, ready to chow down. Behind the tree, which still has bite marks from the caterpillar’s previous meal, the mantis holds her claws to her face in dismay. Dawn is beginning to tint the horizon red. The image has the text: Day 10 MoodboardTwist
