A Guide to Unholy Sacraments Illustration of a vampire man holding a vampire woman, blood dripping down both their mouths. Adult/New Adult Paranormal Romantasy Written by Kate Duarte and represented by Catherine Ross at CLA Pitch THE DEER AND THE DRAGON X A DOWRY OF BLOOD To save her father from violent loan sharks, Frances becomes a ​vampire—but she comes back wrong. Unable to feed without ​killing, she must rely on her sire and defeat the zealot hunters ​targeting both. Excerpt Frances loves to think they flocked together because they also recognized the differences in each other, drawn to that singularity, even as they felt alone and isolated as children. They were still buds of a flower ready to be stifled and, already, they feared their nature would lead them to sin. Away from their church, their parents. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. But neither of them has, have they? Tropes and themes religious trauma found family twist on the vampire lore queerness why choose consent one bed (supernatural) fwb to lovers friends to enemies grumpy/sunshine

Exactly a year ago, while I was getting off the train, on my way to uni, I got an email from an agent.

I was pretty down about a rejection on a full, and the nine years I'd spent in the trenches were about to become ten.

That email was an offer of rep 😁💖

Came to London thinking that at most I'd head home with two books. Now I have six in my case. Help.

an editor's guide to The Moths, now #onsubmission (!) with my wonderful agent Jon Cobb @ HG literary 🦋💚 #editors #writingcommunity
a background of a green/blue-lit city, with sparkle graphics. text reads: 'an editor's guide to The Moths, YA fantasy, 95k' Pitch: Master thief, serial flirt and all-around degenerate, Dylan Mothren has two hobbies: robbing the rich and chasing pretty girls. She's the leader of the Moths, a gang of notorious thieves in the city of Satis, which she uses to enact her revenge against the upper class. Cithrel is an activist from Satis' slums protesting against "Panergy," the volatile, pollutive magic that destroyed her homeland—and will eventually destroy the entire world. When the two girls meet on the run from the cops, Cithrel proposes an impossible heist: to steal the Heart of Panergy, the fuel source of all polluting magic in the world. Dylan, eager to screw over the rich again, takes the job. 'Comps/tropes Ocean’s 8 (2018) meets Greta Thunberg! Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows MJ Kuhn's Among Thieves Roshani Chokshi's The Gilded Wolves found family eco-fantasy sapphic romance heist novel high stakes' character art of a blonde, white girl in a suit holding a knife, and a brown-haired girl in green dungarees, standing back to back, smirking 'first line There were two rules Dylan Mothren lived by. The first rule was always to have at least two knives on her person. This meant that if one slipped from her grip or was mislaid in, for instance, the chest of a pursuing eidolon, she would still have one spare. The second rule—and this was the really important one—was to trust nobody.'
