Title: Serpent Skin. At the top, like actors’ names in a movie: snow realm; only one bed; enemies to lovers; climate change. Image: a blonde girl in winter clothes stands next to a red dragon.

This is the genius of the Portland protests - they make the claims of lawlessness look not just wrong, but comical

Researching for a historical romance, I came across this gem: "Flagellation. An 18th Century engraving presented to the Royal Society in hopes they could explain the appeal."

Hell yeah! Got the best seat today. I’m staying at the island unit again because supposedly there’s construction work and they can’t rent it out, but the workers only show up for an hour or two and then go surfing 🏄‍♂️ So, I get a free (or nearly free) writing retreat

I meant to write “It should be buried like any dead body” but typed “dad” instead of “dead” … Dad bods aren’t my thing but I don’t think they should be buried alive!

Aren’t crocs basically designed for yardwork? So, who thought grass-sized holes were a good idea?

My English-language spam is like, "Hello Dear, You have inherited $365,829,396.00". My Spanish-language spam is all, "You have been chosen to receive a set of drill bits!" or "You have won a ham!" It's so much more plausible. (I also get Finnish spam but alas I can't read it.)

Once Gwen was called Wendy. She was promised love. All she lost was her humanity.
Once Hook was called Rosie. She was promised adventure. All it cost was her family.
Together, maybe a cranky immortal & a smug pirate can find a thing they didn’t know was missing.

In 1832, Éponine Thénardier was one of many casualties of the June Rebellion. In the future, an android comes online declaring itself to be that same woman, returned to life. She’s given a badge & a mystery to solve, one where her old skills might come in handy.

#PosterPit #PosterPitQ #SF #A
A movie-poster style image. The central focus is a robotic woman in a flat cap, coat, and tank top, with a police badge strung around her neck. The image is done in a etched/inked style reminiscent of the famous image of Cosette from Les Miserables. The image is all black and white, except for the purple eyes peeking out from under the cap. She is confidently holding the lapels of her coat. The background is a warm gray. The text at the top reads, "From the author of the Crowns series," "Special Inspector EP09." The tagline next to the robot's head says, "She's through being miserable." Text at the bottom says, "Urban science fiction" and "For adult readers."

Líadan’s fate has been decided from birth. She is a mortal vessel for a dangerous saint, meant to spread pain and destruction with her volatile flame. But the god of chaos intervenes, giving her the choice to fight back. The only question: is she strong enough to do so?
#PosterPitW #PosterPit #A #F
A movie style poster for Songs of Broken Bells The poster has art of Líadan holding a candle and sheltering its flame in a dark cave. Líadan is an oerent with orange skin, silver hair, and black rams horns. Her hands are black and the blackness extends up her arms in spirals. She is wearing a yellow dress and a green cloak. At the top of the poster there are several tropes: high fantasy, living magic, fighting fate, and paying the price. Underneath that it says: Songs of Broken Bells, a voices of Val’hoon Novel By Lilly Lockwood To the left is a quote from a beta reader: "The world feels rich and alive, and the characters feel natural within the context of it. The closest comparison I can think of immediately is The Chronicles of Narnia." -Beta Reader On the bottom it says: Starring Liadan of Leefside - Vasil of the Lacebark - minno af freigha Aila, daughter of entropy Coming Oct 17

Did I make a poster for my short story in Artifice & Access?? Of course I did! Hope, be it Never so Faint is a Sapphic Robin Hood retelling with a chronically ill maid Marian and a "you shot me!" "you shot first!" meet cute

#PosterPitP #F #DIS #OWN #PosterPit

Add on GR/Storygraph and order now!
A soft, pink background with roses through a hazy screen. It's set up a bit like a movie poster with the title across the center: HOPE, BE IT NEVER SO FAINT. Across the top, the tag line reads "ask me one more time" with two reviews bracketed in laurel leaves. The first reads "hot redheaded robin hood gay panic forever -advanced review" and "I wish I could send this back in time to my teenage self. -goodreads reveiw" Beneath the title are the "tropes" but in the same way movies have the main actors' names. It says "robin hood retelling, "You shot me first," and Happily ever after." My name: Ashley N. Y. Sheesley is across the bottom in a white box, and at the very bottom it reads "Artifice & Access Now available wherever books are sold"
