Here's another song from my novel. The Exile Song from my fantasy novel, A Solemn Silhouette. It's sung by my main character at a crucial moment of betrayal and hopelessness...a song of old written 1000 years before when her people were either slaves or in exile. #amquerying #fantasy

#preDV, a pitch practice event before #DVpit, is happening this MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29!
If you're a Diverse Author/Artist looking to get agented & traditionally published, please join us! We're hoping to create a fun creative community here!

Thank you!

Hey you brilliant peeps - While you keep the #UnhingedPit posts rolling in, be sure to bookmark your fave pitch (not your own) so you can nominate the author on our awards post tomorrow!

What if my snarky, thieving MC and her love interest went on a Chicken Shop Date in their dystopian world together?

What could go wrong?

THE BANSHEE OF CLAN MURTAGH is a gothic horror about the black sheep of a powerful 14th century Irish family and his doomed love story with the banshee who's haunted his household for generations.

Emphasis on "Human" to avert implication of a story about furries 😜

Disclaimer: A Solemn Silhouette is NOT inspired by current events & will NOT infuriate Christian Nationalists NOR inspire revolutionary spiritual thinking from the margins of power. It's a grounded fantasy, grounded in nothing like our world 👀

Who put that there? ⬇️🫢

In a world where therapy has not been invented, AuDHD has never been treated, a hyperactive woman gets together with a King w/ daddy issues.
I joked about using this song as a pitch but here I am!!!
....🥁 (drum roll please)

A Solemn Silhouette.

Looking back at when my bookcases were tidy 🤣📚 Now it's coming into cosy-up-with-a-book season, I'll have to get them tidied again. Only problem is, I usually start then find something I want to read!

So far two readers have said my fantasy novel prologue sounds like Galadriel is narrating and I'm just absolutely delighted 🥰

Thanks so much for this! The most constructive feedback I've been given so far, you're a star! I'll play around with it and see how I can make it work.

Thanks for the feedback? Any recommendations for switching between 3rd person & internal narrative? It's only like that for this passage.

Something more terrifying than querying literary agents...my mother-in-law is reading my manuscript 😱🤣 #amquerying #historicalfiction

Here's to hoping! X is inundated with scammers!

Congratulations Nick! ✨️💃📚

A poem I wrote, about why I write, poignant title, I Write. May resonate with other writers here! 🥰✨️

She is very adorable & quite a rascal! She escaped a few weeks ago & travelled down the road to play with the neighbours children 😆

It is 1798 in Ireland. Three friends are accused of rebel activity. One lies dead, another is flogged & Nathaniel is waiting his turn. The village watches in horror. The English woman he loves is coming to help...but will she reach him on time?

Hello...um, is this a safe place for aspiring authors?! Are there spammers and bots posing as best selling authors waiting to lure me into dubious book services?! 🙏 🥰📚 #WritingCommunity
