NAUSICAÄ X FF7

Nature is decaying, nobles are hoarding magic, and demons prey on everyone. A possible chosen one, a man who failed his destiny, and a woman rejected by fate must work together for one last chance to save the dying world.

#questpit #Q #F #A #agentguide
Dark forest. An agent's guide to The Blessing Returned. Adult fantasy. 98,000 words. Dark forest. Pitch. Idealistic Hana Hahl lives in a world that is slowly dying after a failed quest to bring back magic. The only ones left with power are self-serving royals and dark mages, while desperation has given rise to an anti-magic order. Caught up in a mystical event, Hana is blessed with an immense power that could restore nature to the world. As Hana struggles to control the overwhelming force, Lady Kalyn Nossi, the only known survivor of the disastrous quest, directs her to the one person who can help her. Matthias Azel, the failed chosen one, reluctantly agrees to teach Hana while concealing his past from her. Accompanied by Kalyn and a charismatic prince with a dangerous secret, they journey to seek answers about Hana’s destiny. They fend off demonic threats and the anti-magic forces as Hana struggles with magic that seems to resist her and a growing fear that the world isn’t meant to be saved. A dark forest. Comps. Nausicaä. One Dark Window. The Starless Crown. Godkiller. Final Fantasy VII Remake. Tropes. Chosen One (s)? Ecofantasy. Dieselpunk. Grumpy/Sunshine. LGBTQIA+. Multi POV. A dark forest. Snippet. She took a cautious step forward, unaware she was in a spectral form. Little drops of shimmering light followed her path, dissolving into the ground. “But this has to be a sign?” Grass grew where the light fell, delicate bits of nature that should be impossible. “Maybe it’s returning!” The young woman spoke with such bright reverence as if life was a fairy tale and magic was all they needed for a happy ending. It was as if she couldn’t see the shadows approaching her. The inevitable death. “Magic should never return.” After speaking those words, he sprang forward and shoved her away from the shadows. Pain rocked him as soon as he touched her. The scorching mystical agony tore a scream out of him, but it kept her away from the unearthly menace, and the shock did what he intended. Sent him back to his body.

A plus-size baddie dog sits to survive after her ex leaves her with rent she can’t afford—then she meets a guy in the personal care aisle who’s everything her ex wasn’t: loyal, patient, and in desperate need of a dog sitter…which might just ruin her plan to swear off love forever🐾
#QuestPit #A #R #Q
Title page for an agent's guide to KNOW YOU BETTER, adult plus-size romcom. Green background, two character stock photos, photos in polaroids to of tattooed hand holding, a corgi + golden retriever, and a Red Wings game "Know You Better" one-paragraph pitch: After her boyfriend of six years moves out and leaves her with rent she can’t afford, retail manager Sydney Bennett is barely hanging on—juggling long shifts and a side hustle dog-sitting for clients with the worst-behaved pets in Metro Detroit. When she meets Owen Sutton in the personal care aisle after a rant about two “demonic Pomeranians,” he’s instantly charmed—and in need of a sitter for his own, much better-behaved dogs. What starts as a business arrangement turns into something gentler and deeper: a slow-burning romance between two people still healing from betrayal. But as Sydney faces losing her apartment and Owen’s past betrayal comes back to haunt him, they’ll have to decide if the safety they’ve found in each other is worth risking their hearts for. On a green background with two stock images of the characters A sample of writing on the left from Know You Better, as well as 4 images of comp titles, including their book covers and information. Savor It by Tarah DeWitt for the sizzling banter & tension. You With a View by Jessica Joyce for the emotional exploration of starting over. Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez for acts of service as a love language. And Curvy Girl Summer by Danielle Allen for the plus-size confidence. Tropes of "Know You Better" and character images, stock, along with information about the characters. Sydney Sage Bennett: 30, Aquarius, Retail Ops Manager. Empathetic. Competitive. Amazing cook. Loves hockey. Sarcasm as a shield. Pilates girlie. Brunch is her love language. Poor spending habits. Younger sister. Sworn off relationships to focus on herself. Owen James Sutton: 31, Cancer, National Events Manager. Patient and loyal. Flirty. Loves hockey. Bottles everything up. Former company co-founder. Amazing dog dad. Acts of service. Takes care of his elderly neighbor. Older brother. Prone to emotional spill-overs.

Writing a book is hard.
Querying is harder.
Signing with an agent is even harder.
But parting ways with an agent and querying again is heartbreaking 💔

I am back in the #amquerying wagon…

I think I want to do an #askagent later this week.

Like #amquerying folks can ask publishing /querying/writing etc questions and I'll answer as best I can. I know I used to see those a lot on twitter but I don't seem too often here.

Would that be something people are interested in? ☺️

But there is another way for him to save the city –

The winged letters fluttered like little birds over the cobbled road. Every year, the school sent invitations to promising youths. Often, they would summon an unsuspecting ordinary child. A surprise. A miracle.

None of them moved towards me.

So I stole one.

Now that pitch events are back, authors, it’s time to talk about the best way to prepare your pitch to sell your book.

When in doubt, the Pixar method never fails.

Side note: I would love to see this pitch as a manuscript in my queries, just saying.
A pitch is a simple premise that grabs the reader in 1-2 sentences by showing the character, the situations, and the stakes When in doubt, use the Pixar Pitch Method: once upon a time; but, one day; and because of that; because of that Example: In a war torn world, a young seamstress survives in a divided magical empire; every day, she stitches dresses for the elite while secretly sewing coded messages for the resistance—until one day, her latest design was intercepted, putting her life, her cause, and the fate of the rebellion at risk.
