Yeah, sometimes it can be tough, (tougher when it’s bad news because I’m less motivated to record that haha) and I’m psyched about QueryTo. Seems like a really great idea!

THE THINGS WE RUN FOR #Editors Shameless x Riverdale (s1) x AGGGTM ☕️ Drama-Mystery with Romance 📓 Runaway x Boy Next Door ☕️ 90s Small-Town Mystery 📓 Found Family ☕️ Genderfluid and Pan Rep 📓 Mental Health Rep ☕️ Fake Identity Turned Real Identity #QuestPit #YA #C #MY #R #AG #OS #LGBTQ #OV
A fake case file lays open. On the left side of the folder is a sketch of a girl with a sticky note beside it that reads: “Emma Bridge is believed to have cut her hair. Police sketch artists have taken a guess at what she may look like now.” Under it is a map of all US railroads with another sticky note that reads: “Last seen in California, current whereabouts unknown. An anonymous tip reports she has made it out of the state.” Under that, the name Emma Bridge is crossed out, replaced with the name Peyton Freys.

On the right side of the folder is a clipping of newspaper that reads: “Hollywood’s Beloved Missing” with the date 4/13/1996 below it. Text on the page reads: “What we know: YA Contemporary (with mystery and romance), 82k words” “Represented by Amanda Wooden at SBR Media” “Runaway in hiding, fake identity (turned real identity), mental health rep, genderfluid and pan rep, found family, 90s small-town nostalgia.” 

A block of text reads: “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.”

Finally, a stamp says “On sub soon”
