More things for Welcome To Edwin~
#paranormalfantasyromance
Text reads: Death is supposed to be simple. Being a medium complicates it. A lot. For the background: A faded filter over a picture of a woman with long red hair is standing by a lamppost looking across the street where a shadow of a man stands on the roof with a glowing appearance and aura. A woman with long, wavy red hair, in a green jacket and jeans is standing in the dark holding a flashlight. Behind her, is the hazy image of a man with light brown curly hair reaching towards her. His image is slightly translucent with a blue aura to give him the appearance of being a ghost. The text reads: Adam is dead. But his spirit still lingers.

When Jenna flees to the island of Edwin to flee her past, she starts to uncover more and more secrets. About the town that, for its size has a lively night life. About her late (ex?) boyfriend. And the scariest part: secrets about her past she’d rather keep buried.

#paranormalfantasy #selfpublishing
#vampires #ghosts
An illustration of a woman with long red hair and brown eyes, holding a flashlight at night. A hand hovers in the air behind her head. An illustration of a male vampire baring his fangs. He has brown hair and red eyes. An illustration of a man with silvery-brown eyes and curly light brown hair. He’s slightly transparent and glowing a soft blue to give the appearance he’s a ghost. Illustration: Left to right: Adam: a tall man wearing a red flannel and black t-shirt, and jeans with a hole in the knee. He has light brown curly hair, and silvery brown eyes. He is glowing blue and is slightly transparent to give the appearance he’s a ghost. He’s reaching out towards Jenna’s hair. Middle: Jenna- shorter than Adam, she’s a a woman with long red hair, brown eyes and freckles. She’s wearing layered jackets. Top layer dark green, bottom layer blue, with a dark shirt underneath. With blue jeans. She’s holding a flashlight towards the distance. Right: taller than both Jenna and Adam, Thomas is standing protectively close to Jenna, baring his vampire fangs. He has semi-long brown hair, with the hints of grey starting at the edges of his fringe. His eyes are glowing red with hints of grey to them. He’s wearing a business style attire. (Dark blue button up shirt with dark slacks.) All three are standing in the woods at night, and a glimpse of police causation tape can be seen in the bottom left corner.

Two very cute beagles who love their shirts.
If you ask them about a shirt they get super excited. And if you pick one up they run to you and will get in the way of eschother when you’re trying to put it on them.
Two beagles sitting side by side with shirts on. One is in a Halloween mummy shirt, and the other is in a bright orange “sweatshirt” looking shirt.

The night-life here is interesting… we await your visit.
Text resembling a neon sign reads: Midnight City in glowing white text. In glowing, plain white letters it says: “Where the night-life has some…Bite.” (The word bite is in yellow.) The text sits on a purple start night background, with a large moon and mountains. (All different shades of purple.

Yay… got one so far…😅

#Swifties #Mastermind
Taylor Swift Mastermind game where you guess the outfits for the show. My guesses so far are all wrong. Except one. 3 points. *laugh/crying* I chose the purple suits for Lover, the “tiger” dress for fearless, the “I bet you think about me” shirt for red. And the purple gown “wonderstruck” for speak now. The only outfit I have correct so far is the gold and black Reputation suit. TBD on if she wears the pink berry folkmore/Everlore dress, matching blue 1989 skirt and top, “who’s afraid of little old me” TTPD dress, black outfit underneath with the silver jacket. I picked the Sunrise Blvd dress for the surprise songs, the ice blue midnights dress shirt, moonstone midnights body suit, and magenta karma jacket.

The color I have assigned to Midnight City (current WIP) is PURPLE! lol. (And like neon colored accents lol.)
Purple, hazy background with vertical, glowing lines to make a “maze look.” In glowing yellow text it says: “Rules for the Maze as a Medium: Don’t make a wrong turn. Don’t follow the voices. Don’t trust the reapers. Don’t run.

SUPERNATURAL + GHOST WHISPERER

So… Jenna’s got a problem.
She’s being (accidentally) haunted by her (ex?) boyfriend. (Does dying make him her ex? His ghost is still around so that muddies things a bit.
Make that 2 (3?) problems: 2 demons want both of their souls.

#unhingedpit #U #F #R #A #W
Mood board with several photos: all set on a glowing, rainbow light background mixed with purple. First photo: a couple kissing, man with dark hair, woman with red hair. 2nd: hands reaching out to touch in the shadows. 3rd: a comforting hand on a girls shoulder as she sits on a park bench. 4th, a girl with red hair is hugged by a man, viewed from behind. 5th, a scary looking creature with glowing eyes and horns— twigs and vines entangle with its body. 6th: lips smirking in front of a flame, you can see vampire fangs just barely visible. 7th: a scary creature hovers over the forest. It’s human shaped but has antlers. 8th: a human like shadow in the dark with red, glowing eyes. Last: pictures on a cork board, with red string tacked to them connecting them. The red string makes a bit of a star pattern. A purple ish haze covers most of the picture: a shadow of hands reaching out to touch is barely visible in the haze. In the top layers are neon glowing stars in a rainbow ombre. The words : Midnight City glow in yellow, neon sign styled letters.

Black and white cat— long hair, fluffy, with black around her eyes, and a black, diamond shape splotch on her nose. She’s sitting on my desk with gold-ish green eyes staring into my soul demanding I go to bed.

Playing around with my little agents guide to pin to my page. It could use some fine tuning but I love the vibe so far.
#writingcommunity #amquerying (soon)
Agent guide: midnight city. Words: 91,000, genre: paranormal. Glowing neon like words on a dark background, back lit by colorful tie-dye that resembles glowing lights mingled in a puddle. Neon bat shapes are in the bottom corners. Comps: Supernatural and Ghost Whisperer is written in glowing text. In plain text I have added: with a dash of Criminal Minds. The words sit on a dark background with glowing colors that are swirled like tie-dye. Meant to resemble the glow of lights in a puddle. “If you love…. Strange small towns, demons, old and young vampires, accidental Hauntings and Astral projection, ghosts, lots of different creatures, not all monsters… but some…” written on a dark background with swirling, glowing tie-dye colors. Incomplete playlist: Requiem on the water by Imperial Mammoth, Bad Moon Rising, cover by Thea Gilmore, The Prophecy, by Taylor Swift, and Fire and Dynamite by Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors, written on a dark background with glowing purple boarder around the words, and same glowing tie-dye as in previous pictures.
