🐦‍⬛📖 MARK OF A MAGPIE 📖🐦‍⬛ When a small-town thief crosses paths with the kingdom’s big-shot assassin, an unlikely partnership is born; but can their goals align before their egos and secrets land them both a spot on the gallows? (But this time, in songs 😂) #2025Pit #Q #YA #F #R #RM #amquerying #DIS

A piece of parchment paper in front of ocean waters and surrounded by the gold outlines of flowers.

The parchment reads:

Mark of a Magpie in songs

I’m Dangerous by The EverLove:
“Standing at the edge of the fire,
Fighting for the will to survive,
I feel it burning under my skin,
And I’m back on my feet again.”

Fool & The Thief by THE HARA:
“So I’ll be the fool, yeah, I’ll be the thief,
I’ll be the ghost just to get what I need,
Heavily fortified,
So I dare you to give it your best try.”

Who Are You, Really? By Mikky Ekko
“I have nothing left to prove,
‘Cause I have nothing left to lose,
See me bare my teeth for you,
Who, who are you?”

I’ll be damned by gavn!
“Told her, “Fire and brimstone, my fate
I got blood on my shirt and I’m stained,
I ain’t worth all these prices you’ll pay,
Don’t you follow me down to this grave.”
She said, “I’ll be damned, pull my hand,
Down if you have to,
If Heaven won’t have you.”

There is a collage of pictures in front of ocean water.

Picture one is of a boy crouched down with his head covered as a fire burns in the background. Picture two shows an old piece of parchment with unreadable script. Picture three shows a group of rich party-goers climbing a marble staircase. Picture four shows a person wrapping up the wounded hand of another. Picture five is of a chair by the window of a ship, looking out on ocean waters and a ship in the distance. Picture six shows two hands tied to a pole on the beach. Picture seven shows an old tavern shelf shocked with whiskey. Picture eight is of an island with a castle and small village surrounding it. Picture nine is of a girl on the run with a dagger in hand.

Surrounding the collage are gold outlines of flowers.

❤️YA contemporary romance ⌨️ 70k words Raised by her strict Tiger Mom, Maggie Wang fake-dates the hockey team grump to make her crush jealous, only to fall for the wrong guy and risk breaking all her mom’s rules. #2025pit #Q #YA #R #CON#poc #writingcommunity #amquerying

Nathan playing hockey. Maggie playing keyboard. Maggie studying. Preschool. Nathan listening to music with eyes closed. Nathan and Maggie skating. Nathan kissing Maggie’s hair. Bunny hugging teddy bear. Nathan and Maggie hugging.

Comp titles: Lynn Painter’s Better Than The Movies; Ann Liang’s This Time It’s Real; Tashy Bhuiyan’s Counting Down With You; Laura Taylor Namey’s A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow; Jenny Han’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before

Maggie Wang lives by her tiger mom’s rules—even her crush ticks all the right boxes. But when she finally works up the courage to confess to the perfect guy, he’s too oblivious to look beyond their friendship. Desperate to turn his head, Maggie hatches a plan: snag a fake date to his hockey team’s skate party and make him jealous, as long as she can survive her clumsy self on the ice.
Enter Nathan Myers—the team grump. Once he agrees to be her stand-in, everything seems simple enough: he’ll teach her how to skate, and she’ll put up with his attitude. Only the more time they spend together, the more Maggie discovers a gentle teddy bear hidden beneath Nathan’s gruff exterior. For the first time, she wonders if it’s okay to let go of certain expectations—being herself might actually be enough.
But Nathan’s a wild card with no college plans. He doesn’t fit in the future Maggie’s mom has mapped out for her. Trapped between the family expectations and her growing feelings, she must decide whether breaking the rules is worth it with the boy who’s becoming more than just a fake date.

"On the surface, I smiled. I kept shoving thoughts down in to the hollowness that had opened inside me, but the harder I pushed, the more something else cracked. Pretending that everything was fine was choking something vital, something buried deep. But I kept smiling, hoping whatever I was strangling wouldn't suffocate completely."

A collage of photos for the novel Moonlit by Harper-Hugo Darling. The images depict gray wolves howling at the sky and playing in the snow, a dark sky with a red moon, a woman with a blood-covered chin smiling, snow-covered forests, the Edmonton cityscape, white hands holding a green potted plant, a close-up of a lush pink blanket, glasses of wine, and mugs of coffee. In the center of the collage is a luminous moon containing the title of the novel and a snowflake.
