I highly recommend this if you have the opportunity. Worth every penny. Helen manages to get so much valuable information across in the time allotted.

Raven leads a motley group of survivors after a plague, world wars and regional fighting. She recognises that it’s not possible to do it alone. They are looking for answers and a safe place to live but will they find it in a post apocalyptic world ?

This is a tongue in cheek dark comedy thriller that will keep you smiling and cringing in equal measures until it reaches its climax.

Lola is a serial killer on a murder spree who takes advantage of Ernie, a hapless loser with questionable morals.

Hey. Hey.

Please don’t wait for an indie book series to be finished before you pick up the books. Just buy them. Don’t wait.

So MANY indie series never get finished because the author gets zero sales on the opening volumes and gives up.

Give them a reason to keep going.

Buy the books.

Poor Ravioli has been at the shelter for a long time. πŸ’” He's very handsome and wants affection badly, but he's prone to getting overstimulated. Posting in hopes that maybe a quiet, cat-savvy person in Vermont might see this! www.hsccvt.org/Cats#sl_embe...

Finally, a young adult novel that answers the question literary agents have been pondering since the dawn of time:

What if John Hughes wrote an episode of Molly of Denali about the time in 1995 when an angsty new girl moved into the neighborhood?

A fake magazine cover featuring a blonde woman in a white dress and big flower crown with various fake article titles like love advice from a guardian, more than friends quiz, magic crystals, a special interview, and secrets of the witch.

Dear Sara,
Thank you for wasting my time with your query for THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHN. For future reference, please note that I'm only open to multi-POV YA fantasy where the sapphic childhood-besties-turned-lovers don't get a happily-ever-after.
Side note: A scorned ghost pirate trapped inside the head of a closeted princess until they both learn to help each other come out? How original.
Regrets,
Princess Mira

Sara,
Thank you for considering me for the most torturously feel-good, insufferably hopeful-even-in-its-bleakest-moments novel I've ever had the displeasure of reading. I suggest you jump ship on writing and take on a more practical hobby like swashbuckling, rum drinking, or breaking the curse that has me stuck inside the head of this whiny princess (thanks for that, by the way).
Kick bricks barefoot,

Hi Sara,
Thank you so much for your query for THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHN. While I truly admired the 82,000 word count, non-Western fantasy setting, and LGBTQ+ representation, unfortunately, I will have to pass. I would, however, like to offer a minor suggestion to change the title to THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHANNA, as I believe this better reflects the titular character's gender identity.
Best wishes,
Johanna

Ms. Duran,
The empire has scrupulously reviewed your query for THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHN, and has found that beneath the lighthearted, adventurous story of queer joy and acceptance is a truly blasphemous critique of the colonization of the Global South. We will be passing, but please do keep us in mind for any future projects featuring white, male, cis-het protagonists, preferably in settings inspired by medieval Europe.
Regards,
General Genovese
