What if Alice fell in love with the Queen of Hearts? ♥️ But they realize in order to escape Wonderland, one of them must die. #bluepit #WIP

Moodboard collage of dark Alice in Wonderland aesthetic, featuring painting the white roses red, sugar cubes with red hearts, a spiral staircase of a clock, and two women in regency era clothing

Alura is late again.
Her mother deems it a nasty habit, one she’s desperate for her daughter to break, always apologizing on her behalf.
“She will be here soon.”
“She isn’t usually so late.”
“Don’t worry, I will have a word with her later.”
That only fuels Alura’s desire for tardiness even more. Most mornings, she’ll pretend to sleep while her maid calls on her. It isn’t until her mother barrels through the doors, screaming her name and shaking her so violently that Alura sits up, yawns, and smiles.
“So sorry, Mother,” she’ll say, voice dripping with honey, “I didn’t want to leave my dream.”
Her mother says dreams are poison to the mind.

#BluePit 📖 #M #A #OV #LGBT #WF A lonely middle-aged academic falls under suspicion after her best student vanishes - but proving her innocence is complicated with her growing connection to her rival’s unconventional daughter. An age gap lesbian love story within a dark academia mystery.

A low saturation moodboard of: a English village scene in the fog, a woman seated and covering her face with her hands, a dimly lit lecture theatre, an out of focus woman in the forest, a collection of lit candles, a person in a hoodie in a field at night giving the finger, a screen cap of Carnival of Souls, two people facing one another either side of a door, a crow perched on a tree in autumn.

Run. What a powerful instinct.
Emma Bridge had wanted nothing more than to be with her two siblings in a home that felt safe, but those wishes never came true. With nothing left to lose, Emma runs away from the spotlight of the Hills to a small town across the country, but this new home is anything but the safety she’d been after.

The weight of the world has fallen on her shoulders, and she can’t carry it alone. But with her old name in every police station and her new name on every tongue in town, she’s not sure who she can trust to help carry the burden.

What we know:
-Runaway in Hiding
-Fake Identity (turned real identity)
-Mental Health Rep
-Genderfluid and Pan Rep
-Found Family
-90s Small-Town Nostalgia

Snippet:

Blair read the letter for the third time, her eyes darting left and right, a horrid knowing look in her eyes.

She faced me. "We can't go to the Headmistress with this," she said.

"Why not?" I asked.

"My name is on here. Expelled member or not, this letter reveals that !
broke school conduct. Curfews, prohibited gatherings..."

"But you could explain that you were forced into the society," I said.
"Just like I would."

"But the difference would be you didn't do anything past breaking curfew. I got a teacher fired, Emmaline. If the society goes down, then so would I. So would we." She glanced at the letter again, fire in her eyes. "And Sylvia knows it."

Three young women are highlighted, each labeled with roles: Emmaline (MC) as "New girl," Blair as "Outcast," and Sylvia as "Class president." Background shows school setting. Text hints at mystery involving hidden treasure on campus. Emmaline is tied to a crime mystery, Blair and Sylvia have conflicting interests. Tone is tense and mysterious.

DROWNING IN FLAMES - YA Mystery (85k words). Accused of attempted murder on her first day at her late mother’s prestigious alma mater, Hawthorne Academy, Emmaline Berry teams up with outcast Blair to expose a secret society someone will kill to keep hidden. #QuestPit #Q #YA #M

A three-panel aesthetic collage featuring moody, emotional scenes paired with text excerpts.

Left panel: A person with long hair sits at a desk lit by a computer screen, their head bowed over papers. Text reads: “And it was then that I decided: If finding out who poisoned her was what I had to do to stay, then I would do whatever it took. I would work harder than I ever had before. Maybe this time it would be worth it.”

Middle panel: Two people sit across from each other on a window ledge at night, talking closely. Text reads: “Her kisses drowned and ignited me all at once, like a flame dancing in the water that should extinguish it but only made it burn brighter.”

Right panel: A person with long hair sits by a calm lake surrounded by trees. Text reads: “‘If she was getting better, then how…?’ It wasn’t a complete question, but the implication was clear. I let the words tumble out before I could change my mind. ‘I killed my mother.’”

Comps slide featuring: A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee, The World Cannot Give, Every Exquisite Thing by Laura Steven, and Truly Devious by Maureen Johnson.
