SIX OF CROWS x HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON

A drunk wizard, a shadowy assassin, a disgraced elf warrior, a scheming cowboy, and a hapless farm boy decide to steal and then sell the king's beloved pet dragon.

But how do you deal with the creature once you've stolen it?

Less than a week into his first adventure with his mage best friend (and crush), luckless Mick finds himself stuck with a god in his head and the body of a dragon. Now he and genius mage Eleanor must restore his humanityβ€”before his existence triggers a divine war.

Movie poster for #posterpit featuring a woman in a golden dress hiding her face. Swirls of golden light spin around her. The background is a painting of the Hagia Sophia Grand Mosque in Turkey. The top of the poster reads "Complete at 98,000 words," a quote from the novel that says, "The Sultanate doesn't care for their women- and that is one of the greatest strengths we have," and "in the query trenches." Further down, in the top centre we have the title of the story "Garden of Gods," followed by "A novel by AK." The bottom centre of the poster reads, "epic romantasy," "diverse cast," "slowburn romance," and "turkish forklore." Beneath that there is the comp titles including "The Hurricane Wars and The Bone Shard Daughter."

When pen becomes weapon, a historian must decide whether she will unravel the truth in pursuit of humanity's freedom from the tyrannical sultanate, or bury them for their safety.

A mock-up movie poster for my YA fantasy novel, THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHN. 

This poster features a digital illustration of a dark blue wave carrying a tall galleon past a castle. Beneath the waves, a mermaid is subtly silhouetted above a lush coral reef. A lone bird flies above the ship, both silhouetted against the rising sun. 

The poster contains the following text:

TOP: Amir (the pirate), Mira (the princess), John (for now*); * written in the colors of the trans pride flag.

A SHIP IN HARBOR IS SAFE
BUT THAT ISN’T WHAT SHIPS ARE BUILT FOR.

Middle: THE PIRATE, THE PRINCESS, AND JOHN

Bottom: 
YA FANTASY. 82K. MULTI-POV.
ANTI-COLONIAL NON-WESTERN. POLITICAL INTRIGUE.
BESTIES TO LOVERS. FOUND FAMILY. PLATONIC TOUCH HER AND DIE.
STRONG GIRLS. BIG FEELINGS. SHARP PROSE.
DIVERSE. QUEER. MAGICAL
