a white background with a light green banner with white writing that reads “THE BONE COLLECTOR An editor’s guide to a lush, folklore YA fantasy by Leona H. Lach Repped by Arianna Siddiqui at Fineprint Literary” light green background with white flowers and a spine in three of the corners, a group of 3 in a neutral tone color palette is in one of the corners. from left to right: Fawn is on the left. she is a black girl with long locs that are decorated in little gold pieces. Olena is in the middle. She’s a white girl with dark hair & a scarf around her hair. Arwyn is on the right. He has tanned skin, shaggy hair that falls to his shoulders, & hunting gear on. Text is in the middle and reads: PITCH Three magic users a rare Bone Breaker and two spy Animal Weavers- journey into the dark woods to find a potential cure for the sickness ravaging the Bone Breaker's home. Risking their lives against ancient beasts, the three adventure to the highest mountain to find the medicine they're searching for. In a clash of Slavic myths and dark consequential magic, this YA fantasy explores the strength of the natural world while highlighting the struggle to fit in as a young girl. a light green background with white text that reads COMPS AND TROPES. book covers and their tropes are listed below. Eragon cover: 15 y/o MC swept into an unknown adventure. The Last Unicorn cover: a misfit, magic found family. Counterpart cover a royal pawn. Daughter of the Bone Forest cover: magic influenced by death. Where the Dark Stands Still cover: lush world inspired by slavic folklore. white flowers and a spine border the corners. white text over a light green background: SNIPPET But the entire world stops turning, letting Olena live in the few seconds before her end. "A wish?" a chirping voice calls from somewhere inside Olena's skull. It bats around, banging on every corner of her brain, the flap of wings echoing in her ears. "A wish for you." The voice is almost too fast for Olena to comprehend, but she makes her wish. Flight. Wings. The strength to save us, she pleads. in three of the four corners is white flowers and a spine, in the bottom right is olena: a very pale 15 year old girl who looks incredibly tired. she has dark hair under a silk scarf that’s covered in art of lions and dragonflies. she’s wearing a dark blue cloak and dark dress and is fiddling with a bone.

Blue Crush 🌊 x Sirens 🧜🏼‍♀️

When wanting to drown your ex after they break your heart is a normal feeling it’s also a normal reaction in Breaker Bay 💔
And when you’re a girl gang of sirens whose love language is violence…
It’s a little too normal🧜🏼‍♀️

Text next to an image of dragon gargoyles reaching out from a cathedral steeple- Rooted in Stone YA Urban Fantasy 100k words Words written over a dark black background with a crow motif- Rumors say that St. Romain’s is haunted. That suits lonely, troubled goth-girl Helena, perfectly fine. Right away she is fascinated by the eerie sculptures on the campus chapel. Wounded by past rejections, she is reluctant to open up to anyone. All she wants to do is fool her therapist long enough to not get kicked out of another school. When she develops a crush on the mysterious and beautiful Kia, Helena learns her secret… Kia is a gargoyle. The statues are not just stone, but powerful guardians of a rift between worlds. These uncanny guardians quickly find a friend in Helena, but she hides a dark power of her own. When war spills through the rift, the stones of their beloved chapel begin to crumble and Helena is drawn into the battle to protect the world. Trapped in a strange, technicolor netherworld, our goth-girl heroine must face the darkness within or risk the collapse of both worlds and the destruction of her newfound family of stone… and Kia with them.
