Like the Movies - First row First image A blonde boy with pierced ears, looking down. He is sunlit. Wearing a white shirt. In his mouth is a cigarette. Second image is a boy wearing stripped pajamas sitting on a bench. He has dark curly hair and a cigarette in his mouth. Second row first image a chain link fence, the background behind it is black and says Come As You Are. Second image is two joints, light and illuminated by moonlight. Third row first image is two hands held up, flipping the bird. Second image is a pair of converse with stars scribbled on the toe.
Pale blue background, with a combination of lime green hollow triangles and solid hot pink triangles, each green triangle has a slanted yellow line accenting one side. In the center there is the outline of a rectangle in pink, with quotation marks on either side. Top center is the word Snippet in lime green. In the center of the pink rectangle is a solid orange rectangle with text. The text reads 'Travis's eyes were intense as he inspected each ring. "You always wear this one," He brushed is thumb over Dustin's, before he moved to linger over a large turquoise stone. "This one is new." It didn't matter that the room smelled like burnt pizza rolls. It didn't matter that Dustin had a butter stain on his shirt, all he could focus on was this connection. He just nodded caressing a finger across the callused palm of the other boy as each ring was examined in agonizing slowness. -Like the Movies author tag writerofrowan.bsky.social
Dark blue background. There are swathes of color on both sides, a mixture of teal, dark purple and dark pink. In the top center purple letters read The Pitch. Under those letters are words in lime green John Hughes x Say Anything x Heartstopper. The next line states in yellow letters Content Warning: This Pitch has not been approved by the FDA. This book contains alt boys, queer awakenings, quirky side characters, and too much 90's nostalgia. Under the content warning are words in white which read: When new relationships risk exposing his secret a small town punk must make an impossible decision -- does he keep the golden boy or risk both their lives being destroyed?

Title: Pitch Text: In the twenty years since the vampires rose up out of the earth, Corado hasnβt done too bad for himself. Heβs still alive, for one, and heβs got a lucrative trade as a nightrunner smuggling people beneath the vampiric horde that blots out the sky each night. It's dangerous work, but enough to get a roof over his head and a bottle in his hand at the end of the day. Thatβs pretty good for life under the vampires. Then an attack from the horde leaves him stuck in the desert, alone with a newly-orphaned boy, and his luck finally dries up. He resolves to find what remains of the boyβs family and put it all behind himβbut instead of taking him off Coradoβs hands, his so-called βfamilyβ offers a new deal: escort them to the vampiric capital in exchange for a veritable fortune. Corado knows he shouldnβt. Itβs a long, dangerous route, and the group has a smack of sedition to them that he knows firsthand to be a quick way to a bloody death. It is a hell of a lot of money, though. Background image: same as first slide.
Slide title: Comparable Titles Images: Three book covers: the Devils by Joe Abercrombie, Godkiller by Hannah Kaner, and Red Rabbit by Alex Grecian. Arrows point from each image to floating text: Found family (from the Devils) Reluctant parent figure (from Godkiller) Western-inspired Gothic setting (from Red Rabbit) Unlikely travel companions (from all). Background image: same as slide 1.
SINNERS x THE DEVILS x CASTLEVANIA
There's three rules to surviving as a nightrunner: don't get comfortable, don't be a hero, and don't be unlucky.
Corado's about to break all three.

A title card with the text "An Agent's Guide to FROM ONE MIFLETZET TO ANOTHER - Katie Collan - young adult horror 95,000 words" over the outside of a synagogue.
Comparative titles with arrows pointing to relevant descriptions. Titles include: HOW TO SURVIVE A SLASHER by Justine Pucella Winans, WHEN DEVILS SING by Xan Kaur, Netflix's FEAR STREET 1994. Captions: HOW TO SURVIVE A SLASHER: "Ride-or-die female friendship", "Scream-esque meta humor" WHEN DEVILS SING: "Deal with the devil" WHEN DEVILS SING, FEAR STREET: "Small town curse" FEAR STREET: "Star-crossed lovers", "Women's autonomy" All three: "Diverse ensemble cast", "Themes of equality", "Exploration of identity"
Pitch: "When a Jewish girl accidentally reawakens an ancient curse over her town, she must fight through mythological nightmares and break the curse before she's torn apart like the demon who started it all."
A mood board featuring a collage of seventeen pictures, with the title "FROM ONE MIFLETZET TO ANOTHER" in the center and the sentence "FOUR PIECES REUNITED BY SINNER'S HAND MAY FINALLY BREAK THE CURSE" overlaying the collage in fragments. From left to right, top to bottom: the Jewish star hanging from a tree branch; a hatchet lying beside a digital camera; a red snake; a hand holding a lighter; a menorah perched beside Hebrew scripture; a Torah scroll; a depiction of Lilith, the mother of demons; a depiction of a powerful demon's silhouette; the entrance to a synagogue; an oak tree in the middle of a grassy field; a Torah scroll; a shadow-covered skull; the wall of a synagogue; a fire-breathing serpent rising above the sea; a luscious, green forest; thick roots of an old tree; a forest that leads into darkness.

Hokay BluePitters, here's the plan. I like and repost mutuals, interesting pitches, and folks who interact with my posts.
I also follow back (most) of who follow me. Some are bots we cannot control that...moving on.
I'm all aflutter and excited to see your stuff~

Don't be afraid to just jump in, feet first or head first just get in the pool.
In each Pit event, I learn more. Learn to embrace the learning, when we stop learning we stop growing.
You can't fail.
Failure isn't something to fear but something to revel in.

She loves the face reserved just for her. The way his eyes beg. Her victory.

I'm Rowan, your local queer, cryptid author.
When I'm not skulking or toiling, I like to write stories that bring out emotions. I'm a crier, I might make you one too. My current WIPs are different genres, #Fantasy, #YA, and #ParanormalRomance

Almost 2000 words today. World building to flesh out the romance novel I started in November. Character profiles in LtM and chapter two edits/reworks. New Year, renewed motivation.
#writing #writersofbluesky
The stories are good! Two completely different concepts, but it's been working, so no complaints. They'll both need massive edits, though I've come to realize threadbare is better than a blank page.

Novel November always kicks my ass. This year, however, I have maintained a steady word count and am hopefully going to have two bare-bones novels before the end of the year.

Definitely his overwhelming anxiety and protective streak. Dustin wants to keep the truth of his bullying/alienation from his family. This also makes him desperate to stay at a job where he feels safe. Internally, he's a mess.
