Pitch
THE DEER AND THE DRAGON X A DOWRY OF BLOOD
To save her father from violent loan sharks, Frances becomes a ​vampireβ€”but she comes back wrong. Unable to feed without ​killing, she must rely on her sire and defeat the zealot hunters ​targeting both.

Pitch THE DEER AND THE DRAGON X A DOWRY OF BLOOD To save her father from violent loan sharks, Frances becomes a ​vampireβ€”but she comes back wrong. Unable to feed without ​killing, she must rely on her sire and defeat the zealot hunters ​targeting both.

Excerpt
Frances loves to think they flocked together because they also recognized the differences in each other, drawn to that singularity, even as they felt alone and isolated as children. They were still buds of a flower ready to be stifled and, already, they feared their nature would lead them to sin. Away from their church, their parents. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. But neither of them has, have they?

Exactly a year ago, while I was getting off the train, on my way to uni, I got an email from an agent.

I was pretty down about a rejection on a full, and the nine years I'd spent in the trenches were about to become ten.

That email was an offer of rep πŸ˜πŸ’–

Pitch: Master thief, serial flirt and all-around degenerate, Dylan Mothren has two hobbies: robbing the rich and chasing pretty girls. She's the leader of the Moths, a gang of notorious thieves in the city of Satis, which she uses to enact her revenge against the upper class. Cithrel is an activist from Satis' slums protesting against "Panergy," the volatile, pollutive magic that destroyed her homelandβ€”and will eventually destroy the entire world.

When the two girls meet on the run from the cops, Cithrel proposes an impossible heist: to steal the Heart of Panergy, the fuel source of all polluting magic in the world. Dylan, eager to screw over the rich again, takes the job.

'first line
There were two rules Dylan Mothren lived by.

The first rule was always to have at least two knives on her person. This meant that if one slipped from her grip or was mislaid in, for instance, the chest of a pursuing eidolon, she would still have one spare.

The second ruleβ€”and this was the really important oneβ€”was to trust nobody.'
