Hello, writing friends. I've been absent. After a move across the country and then a death in the family, I was pretty unmotivated. But I've decided to pick up the 'ol dusty manuscripts and maybe get back in the saddle.

Sophia,
Looking forward to seeing you (and your boyfriend!) next weekend. I’m rooting for you to help woo the clients and bring home this acquisition!

P.S. Madison already sent over Jacob’s “fun facts” for the team icebreaker.

I drop my forehead onto the desk.
Of course Madison sent fun facts. Of course Jacob plays the cello, rescues shelter dogs, and bakes his own sourdough.
Meanwhile, I’m just hoping my fake boyfriend doesn’t show up to the welcome dinner in a “Free Britney” tank top and checkered Vans out of spite.

a movie poster for my novel ALL THE DEVILS. the main image on the poster is of a man with his face obscured showing only his eyes. this image is in black and white.

over the image is some text. in the left hand corner is a snippet stating the following “there would be no them from the tomorrow that had already begun. the devils were done. the dream destroyed.” on the right of the image is some information about the novel as follows: daisy jones meets knives out, a literary mystery, crossover potential.

underneath the image is more text. first we have the tagline “the song of death never sounded so sweet”. next is the novel’s tile “all the devils”. “a novel by char young” follows this and then underneath is the novel’s pitch as stated above in the post. finally at the bottom are the words “coming soon to the query trenches” and “strand studios”

At the top it says:
"An Epic Fantasy", followed by two billing lines saying 'A secretive warrior' and 'a damaged smuggler'. There are then two laurel brackets with "Shortlisted Future Worlds Prize 2023" and "Shortlisted RevPit 2025". The tropes are listed like supporting cast:
Found family
Repressed magic
Tigers & dragons
Slow burn
Sorcerors & shapeshifters

In the review section with 5 gold stars it says "worldbuilding is rich... wanted more" - Judges Feedback.

A poster with an aged off-white background. In the center, a photo of foggy coniferous trees is overlayed with Josefa de Ayala's The Sacrificial Lamb painting. Above it, in a dark red sans-serif font, it reads "11-year-old Analía Monroe only finds solace in her small circle of misfits---her younger half-sister Rajel and best friend June---and the dangerous, magical world of Mosswood deep in the forests of their rural Oregon hometown, but their obsession may have deadly consequences." The photo is outlined with a dark red border. Above the border, in green sans-serif text, it reads "There is something in the woods." Below the lamb, there are dark red blood drips which give way to the title, a green serif font reading "MOSSWOOD" and then "a novel by E.S. Hanson." Below that, in the same red sans-serif font, it reads "Adult contemporary fantasy, folk horror, dark fae folklore, eerie forests." Bordering the image are small golden guardian angel figures.

A Memory of Moonkissed Malice

Fantasy Dark Academia

Feminine Rage
Corrupted Moon Magic

The Pitch
18-year-old Alyss Veylas wishes to attend Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school’s guardian, she finally gets that chance. Armed with a Moon Fragment granting memory magic, and the aid of her ex and his new girlfriend, Alyss must confront the woman who took away the person she loved most.

Chapter One
The rain made it easier to rob his grave.
My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night’s whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us.
Us.
As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

🎸 daisy jones x knives out 🗡️ “it begins with a murmur drifting upon the wind.” seven suspects. one the killer of renowned rock star sam corvi. but who? only they can tell you #1stLinePit #A #LF #M (almost) #Q

a moodboard detailing nine images related to my book ALL THE DEVILS aka devilswip. in order from right to left they are: london notably the landmark big ben, a band performing on stage, a sheet of music, a record store, the silhouette of a rockstar, some musical instruments scattered on a bed, two men running, a pile of evidence and finally a hand holding a cigarette

the first pages of ALL THE DEVILS:

prelude
21st august 2016

it begins with a murmur drifting upon the wind.
at first, it’s small—unnoticeable, but soon that murmur, that slick sliver of sound that could one day change the world reaches humankind and becomes a hurricane—an untamed clamour among the silence. it ripples. it taunts. It waltzes upon the breeze like the destructive force it is and, in the end, is unstoppable. It cannot be contained. It’s there forever, a permanent echo in a vacuum, a scratch on a record, a soundbite of time. today, the murmur begins its devastating dance outside a block of flats overlooking the river thames. a white flurry of forlorn forensics leave the building with disbelief carved onto their weary faces. an unsettling stillness suffuses the space as the murmur passes from person to person.
it’s him, rumbles the murmur. it’s sam corvi. he’s dead.
