YA Romantic Fantasy
119k Words

Behind the text is a piece of parchment paper surrounded by ocean water and gold flower outlines.

Blurb:

One for Sorrow, Two for Joy, Three for a Girl, Four for a Boy…
Ryn is a small-town thief with a knack for being overconfident in her abilities, but by day she’s a beloved tavern girl with the liver of steel that carries her reputation. On her most daring break-in yet, she runs face first into the kingdom’s last living assassin, Seven, and he’s just offered her the opportunity of a century: a ticket of attendance to the King’s upcoming courtship gathering. It’s a partnership she’d definitely be a fool to take up, but desperation fuels ever decision she makes.
Five for Silver, Six for Gold…
Seven is set in his own plans, however much they interfere with hers, and they won’t be the only ones in attendance with hidden agendas. When the castle goes into lockdown, it’s survival of the cunning and silver-tongued. The rich are dropped like flies, and all suspicions are on them.
Seven for a Secret, Never to be Told.

The text is on a piece of parchment paper, with ocean water and gold flower outlines behind it.

The Atmosphere:
There is a collage of pictures on a parchment paper. Picture one is of a boy crouched down with his head covered as a fire burns in the background. Picture two is of two hands tied to a pole on the beach. Picture three shows a person wrapping up the wounded hand of another. Picture four shows an old piece of parchment with unreadable script. Picture five is of an island with a castle and small village surrounding it. Picture six is of a girl on the run with a dagger in hand.

Behind the collage of pictures are ocean waters, with gold flower outlines surrounding it.

The image shows a book cover for "THRIFT MAGIC" by B. Van Bodegom. The cover features rich red theater curtains as the background with a spotlight effect creating a beam of light in the center. In the foreground is a small round table covered with a red tablecloth. On the table sits a magician's top hat with a magic wand resting across it. The title "THRIFT MAGIC" appears in large, bright yellow lettering at the top of the cover, with a slightly distressed texture. At the bottom of the cover in white text are the words "A NOVEL BY B. VAN BODEGOM." The overall aesthetic evokes the atmosphere of stage magic and theatrical performance.

Grim Portents HITCHHIKER’S GUIDE X CONSTANTINE A man is murdered by a hell-beast on his wedding day. Now, with the help of the reaper who collected his soul, he must uncover who is releasing monsters from Hell if he wants to return to the life he was robbed of 📖 #Q #A #DF #PR #Hu #H #QuestPit

Cover for Grim Portents featuring a skeleton hand gripping a feather, emerging from a flaming book over a maze

Poster Cover for Grim Portents featuring Bill and Sonny. Bill is a dark featured man in a suit and kind of a Mark Ruffalo vibe. Sonny is a rotting corpse man with a cardigan. Behind them are a girl with glowing eyes and a glowing book, a woman with a shotgun, two shadow creatures, and the face of a demon. The words GRIM PORTENTS are big and in a classic Indiana Jones Style font

"I always told myself it wasn't real. It was a figment of my imagination, the mind playing tricks. It was just a shadow.
But now the monster had been given a name, an identity.
It was real."
BILL BAKER WANTS NOTHING MORE THAN TO MARRY THE WOMAN HE LOVES, BUT WHEN HIS WEDDING IS INTERRUPTED BY A RAMPAGING HELL-BEAST, HIS LIFE IS THROWN INTO DISARRAY. DESPERATE FOR A SECOND CHANCE, HE WILL DO ANYTHING TO SET HIS FUTURE BACK ON TRACK.
NOW, WITH THE HELP OF A SOUL-COLLECTING REAPER NAMED SONNY, HE MUST UNCOVER WHO IS RELEASING MONSTERS FROM HELL, IN ORDER TO EARN BACK THE LIFE THAT WAS STOLEN FROM HIM AND PREVENT THE ONCOMING END OF DAYS.
FACED WITH THE CHOICE BETWEEN WHAT IS RIGHT, AND WHAT IS EASY, BILL MAY HAVE TO SACRIFICE ALL HE HOLDS DEAR FOR ONE LAST SHOT AT LIFE.

JASAD HEIR X CURIOUS TIDES Maia must unravel a lifetime worth of secrets to understand the dangers that lurk around every corner—and she must do so before it’s too late. 🌊 Pacific Islander Rep 🌊 Elemental Magic 🌊 Endless Banter #QuestPit #W #YA #F #AgentsGuide

This image is the first of four to showcase elements for my upcoming book, Whispers of the Sea.

The picture reads: “An Agents Guide to Whispers of the Sea.”

This book will be a young adult fantasy.

This is the second image in my guide, and it includes the pitch for my novel.

Such pitch reads to say:

“Whispers of the Sea follows the story of a teenage girl who embarks on a journey to rescue her uncle after he was mysteriously captured by a group of uniformed men sailing under the royal flags of a faraway kingdom.

Maia must voyage across the seas to this mysterious isle where she’ll team up with a local boy to track her uncle’s whereabouts. But in order to understand the dangers that lurk ahead, she’ll be forced to uncover a lifetime worth of secrets—and she must do so before it’s too late.”

This is the third image in my guide, and it portrays my comp titles.

My book will be perfect for the fans of the Jasad Heir, A River Enchanted, Curious Tides, and the Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi.

This is the last image in my guide, and it showcases the aesthetic and a few elements that can be found in the book.

A few of these elements are: found family, secret ploys, outlawed magic, and self discovery.

THE BASS ROCK x THE UNCONSOLED X ALL THE LOVERS IN THE NIGHT Burned-out jazz pianist Clementine falls for a brilliant artist at a seaside inn—then those he paints begin to vanish. 🎹Art‑as‑magic 🌫️ Gothic melancholy 🩶 Envy‑to‑attraction slow burn ❔Psych suspense #agentguide #questpit #A #LF #Q

An agent's guide to the inn at the edge of the sea - 64k upmarket with magical realism

The pitch: Burned‑out jazz pianist Clementine retreats to a seaside inn where a gifted painter rekindles her inspiration. But when the subjects of his portraits begin disappearing, she must learn whether the artist is to blame—or she could be next.
For fans of:
The quiet loneliness and romance of Mieko Kawakami’s ALL THE LOVERS IN THE NIGHT
The brooding, gothic atmosphere of Evie Wyld’s THE BASS ROCK
The dreamy surrealism of Kazuo Ishiguro’s THE UNCONSOLED

Tropes/Themes: Psychological Suspense
Speculative elements
Romance Subplot with Yearning
Magical paintings
Manipulation
Artistic creation and self-destruction
The Indomitable Human Spirit
Music
Moody and melancholic

Opening lines: The winter tide exhaled a slow melody against the sand. Clementine let its crested waves spill over her feet, foam gathering in deep snow drifts around her ankles.

There was a ghostly feel to the long stretch of water that lay before her, the distant horizon blending into a misty gray sky. As the tide pulled back, she was overtaken by the fleeting sensation of falling, as if the water might pull her with it. It had a good rhythm to it. A steady rhythm.

Time dripped slowly. With a distant sort of detachment, she noted that her toes were blue.

Water breathed, and Clementine drew a breath, shallow and cold. The taste of wood and salt lay in a heavy coat atop her tongue. She’d come here for quiet, yet the ocean thrashed and quaked in the cavity of her chest, filling its emptiness with a transparent and insurmountable longing.

It was a Thursday, and Thursdays were the worst night of the week. The night you got if you played well enough to fill the slot, but not popular enough for the weekend rush. Clementine had only ever been scheduled for Thursdays.

“Academic presses have not showered kindness nor praise upon my prior submissions, and the media conglomerates of mainstream publishing have been known to outbid each other for the right to slam doors in my face.” –Dr. Elara Lee, Paranormal Investigator.

“What kind of police force do we want to be? Are we mindless, iron-fisted, bug-mashing enforcers of the law, or do we offer a supportive and compassionate hand that carries bugs back into nature to live out their full and productive lives? That’s what McGuire should have considered before he appointed himself judge, jury, and pest exterminator!” –Charlie Loomis, Invisible Cop.

When her brothers are turned into geese, Zarni escapes her homelands to an unfamiliar place where fae folks once ruled. Wordlessly weaving star flower scarves to break her brothers’ curse, she navigates her new life with a mysterious boy and soon questions her place in the world. #QuestPit #YA #F #W

Hiding and running was Zarni's speciality

She always ran with one purpose. To flee from the danger of losing.

The Stary Weaver.

17 year old Zarni (who has long black hair and is wearing a blue tunic is lying on the grass) beside her 12 year old self (who has short black hair, and wearing a blue traditional kayin dress). They are surrounded by thazin flowers and star flowers

'He was a killer. A predator of the sea. The one thing all sea folks collectively agreed to avoid the ire of.'

'The landwalkers' world had grown. And Pearl, with the rest of the sea folks, were left behind to a time long passed.'

'And for once, she began to question. Question her perceptions of the world.'
