Kindred Spirits
Adult Paranormal Romance
88,000 words by Nia P.
Kindred Spirits Pitch: “Florence doesn’t believe in magic, let alone love. Yet, she can’t deny she has no dreams, only the taste of florals on her tongue as she wakes each morning. But a witch shouldn’t be this empty. Convinced to get back what she once lost, and to see if magic will appear when she least expects it, Florence performs an ancient ritual using a stolen grimoire.
However, fate gave Florence two gifts, magic she has no control over and a soulmate she can’t get rid of when she finally dreams at night.”
Kindred Spirits Excerpts: “she thinks I need to be complete, but what she doesn’t understand is women like me, who drink tea to dream, who eventually get carpal tunnel from painting nails, and who stick around their whimsical Grandmother, don’t have kindreds. We make up for the lost parts as we go through life.” (Chapter 8. Lotus)
Lovely thinks to know that’s in my story:
Soulmates, tea magic, sisterhood (bffs), dream sharing, Black women and a soft love.

Title page for an agent's guide to KNOW YOU BETTER, adult plus-size romcom. Green background, two character stock photos, photos in polaroids to of tattooed hand holding, a corgi + golden retriever, and a Red Wings game
"Know You Better" one-paragraph pitch: After her boyfriend of six years moves out and leaves her with rent she can’t afford, retail manager Sydney Bennett is barely hanging on—juggling long shifts and a side hustle dog-sitting for clients with the worst-behaved pets in Metro Detroit. When she meets Owen Sutton in the personal care aisle after a rant about two “demonic Pomeranians,” he’s instantly charmed—and in need of a sitter for his own, much better-behaved dogs. What starts as a business arrangement turns into something gentler and deeper: a slow-burning romance between two people still healing from betrayal. But as Sydney faces losing her apartment and Owen’s past betrayal comes back to haunt him, they’ll have to decide if the safety they’ve found in each other is worth risking their hearts for. On a green background with two stock images of the characters
A sample of writing on the left from Know You Better, as well as 4 images of comp titles, including their book covers and information. Savor It by Tarah DeWitt for the sizzling banter & tension. You With a View by Jessica Joyce for the emotional exploration of starting over. Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez for acts of service as a love language. And Curvy Girl Summer by Danielle Allen for the plus-size confidence.
Tropes of "Know You Better" and character images, stock, along with information about the characters. Sydney Sage Bennett: 30, Aquarius, Retail Ops Manager. Empathetic. Competitive. Amazing cook. Loves hockey. Sarcasm as a shield. Pilates girlie. Brunch is her love language. Poor spending habits. Younger sister. Sworn off relationships to focus on herself. Owen James Sutton: 31, Cancer, National Events Manager. Patient and loyal. Flirty. Loves hockey. Bottles everything up. Former company co-founder. Amazing dog dad. Acts of service. Takes care of his elderly neighbor. Older brother. Prone to emotional spill-overs.
A plus-size baddie dog sits to survive after her ex leaves her with rent she can’t afford—then she meets a guy in the personal care aisle who’s everything her ex wasn’t: loyal, patient, and in desperate need of a dog sitter…which might just ruin her plan to swear off love forever🐾

“She makes death taste like chocolate.” Picture of a girl in a white dress in a dark lake with her arm over her chest and white roses over her torso. “Grave of flowers by Dua Ceren Ay”
Grave of Flowers by Dua Ceren Ay Opening Lines: Every sane person knows better than to paint their walls eggshell white, but electric blue? That had to be a crime. Like whoever decided on the color scheme of this place was avoiding the topic altogether; yes, we were all crazy in here, and yes, we all knew they wanted to avoid the clichés.
So, no straitjackets, no padded rooms, no dull hospital gowns, just rooms and rooms and rooms of color until we bored ourselves to sleep or knocked ourselves out from the overstimulation.
We had Kelsie the high schooler folks who had become regulars around here liked to call Iron Fist—to thank for that demonstration.
It was just that the windows didn't open from the bottom, everything had a soft edge or lock, and the nurses had a way of always smiling at us as if we birthed their children. It was the little things that poked me.
So it was even more ridiculous that the early morning hour made the place seem... peaceful.
Comps. A Flicker in The Dark by Stacy Willingham: past repeats itself, small town, investigation. The Midnight Library by Matt Haig: Depressed MC, Magical Realism, Healing and new beginnings. Anxious people by Fredrik Backman: dysfunctional group of friends, social isolation, hope
Tropes: found family, unreliable narrator, treasure hunt/investigation, lost memories, small town. Themes: second coming-of-age, feminism, identity, overcoming trauma, friendship
On an island quietly haunted by ghosts of grieving women, a depressed chocolatier teams up with five strangers—with scars of their own—to find their killer. Of the six, only five are really alive.

a collage for Nia P’s work in progress Dont Say I Do.

Nine photo collage of a woman with a star glowing on her chest, a plethora of maps, a brown feline, stained glass windows, a quote that states “He us the sun, caught in a hazy honey and Ruby horizon. I’m violet and indigo where the moon hangs in the sky. Bright and quiet.” By Nia P., theres an orange gilded clock, an evil pitch black hand with sharp curved nails, a detailed embellished sword, and a woman’s torso with knives.
SAILOR MOON x THE MAGICIANS x WINX
Rain’s worst day arrives when her secrets is revealed, that shes a living star who can grant wishes, but when Archangel Michael’s sword lands on earth, she gets help from a prince to barter for her freedom.

a messy and dreamy collage of a man with his button down shirt open, a man offering his hand and a woman taking it, an art piece with the quote “I feel my magic”, a woman with gold nails touching her knotless braids, white candles lit and dripping of wax, tattooed legs, Smokey quartz crystals, a woman in a white dress standing inside a lily pond lake, tarot cards, and tea in a tea cup sitting with dried herbs, a cauldron and a candle. On the side is a frame of Claude monets painting, a ripped clock, dripping gold, tape holding up a dried flower, and more.
PRACTICAL MAGIC x THE SEVEN YEAR SLIP
Stealing a grimoire did a lot more than give Flo back her dreams. Now she has magic in her nail art and a soulmate when she sleeps. It’s just her luck when she realizes her dreams are here to teach her a lesson in love and magic.

PRACTICAL MAGIC x THE SEVEN YEAR SLIP

Loook I know writers have to market their books and because of that, potential readers will comment and that’s lovely, but if someone asks me “is there spice?” I might just have to sigh deeply because yes hon always. For me at least as a writer. Don’t ever assume I’m not a lover girl.

Dark, twisted forest background with low centered white text box, partially transparent. Title, THE FORGOTTEN GOD by Daelyn Morgana top center aligned. Text box: Comps, THE WITCH’S HEART x THE GAMES GODS PLAY x NETTLE & BONE. An adult mythological fantasy. Pitch, Death might be a god, but he’s not a god like all the others. When a soul hangs in-between, Death must reclaim his mortality to save Morticia’s life, his home, and possibly himself. The only problem? The rest of the gods know his secret and have other plans for them.
Three by three grid mood board in tones of black, white, grey, and a medium orange. Top row from left to right features a hooded grim reaper figure, a five pointed pentacle star necklace, and a church with a tall spire. Middle row from left to right features a fiery flame, a foggy square with the words “For even Death, too, was once a man,” and a tiny seedling sprouting from the dirt. The bottom row from left to right features a dark, twisted forest, two hands reaching upwards, and a witch woman lying on her back staring at you.

Sometimes it feels like there’s no right way to write a query letter because you can have critique groups, agented authors look over it, get fulls, go into pitch events, and while some will say it’s solid others will say…nah, fix it. So now it’s looking like it’s time to cry
