Shattered. Image ID The cover of Shattered., by D. A. Charles, features a black background with an X-ray image of a human torso. The image is shattered by a spinal cord injury.

Charles is dominated by a monochrome photo of a damaged wheelchair. The overlay over the wheelchair looks like glass being fractured by a red, crystal heart.

#DVpit (Diverse Voices Pitch) is a Bluesky event for marginalized creators that have been historically underrepresented in publishing to pitch their work to agents & editors. Post your pitch on Bluesky on Wednesday, Oct 8, 2025 between 8AM ET - 8PM ET. Your pitch must include the #DVpit hashtag (illustrators pitching their art must use #DVArt) A like ❤️ from an agent = a query request A repost 🔁 from an editor = interest in submission once you've signed with an agent A like ❤️ from an editor = editor who takes unagented submissions Please do not like or repost a pitch if you are not an agent or an editor. Support other creators by replying to their pitch or quote-reposting their pitches. Visit dvpit.carrd.co for more detailed guidelines.
Less than a month until #DVpit, a pitch event for marginalized creators looking to find an agent & get traditionally published! Here's a reminder of the rules!
For more guidelines & info go to dvpit.carrd.co

Today's the LAST DAY to get those #PitchDis pitches in! The form will close tonight at 8pm EDT and won't reopen until the next event next year, so make sure you send yours in before then!
forms.gle/rJZpwXEZ1vmC...
AFTER THE EVENT Agents and editors won’t have access to pitches until September 16, so you won’t receive any requests before then. Requests will be sent out as they come in. • If you receive a request: o Make sure the agency or publisher is on the list of registered participants. If not, contact #PitchDis to verify (contactpitchdis@gmail.com, @pitchdis on Twitter, or @pitchdis.com on Bluesky). o Research the agent/editor. If you have any doubts, feel free to reach out. o Please follow any submission guidelines included in the request email. • If you don’t receive a request: o Remember that the number of requests during a pitch event is not indicative of the quality of your work. o Keep querying – most people still connect with their agents this way.
Who’s ready to send in their #PitchDis entry this week?! Here are a few things to remember after you hit submit.

The Roll Models Saga is the heartwarming story of overcoming adversity, accepting change, and loving someone just as they are. This is a story grounded in reality- the reality of life with a disability, but also the reality that life doesn’t end with #disability. It begins anew. #booksky

Although I am AuDHD, there are no neurodivergent characters in THE INCIDENT AT INGLETON. However, the female lead has frequent migraines, and the male lead wears corrective lenses. You can read more about it on my blog! #disabledromancelandia #romancelandia

This was the first book I read with my book club, You Can Read With Us. This is a mafia romance with disability rep for hypermobile ehlers danlos syndrome, written by a chronically ill indie author!

The cover of "Shattered." is an x-ray from the bottom of the ribs to the pelvis, with broken glass and bones with the letters Shattered. The first novel of the Roll Models Saga by D. A. Charles
The teaser for D. A. Charles' Shattered reads; He would find a way to carry the burden of his guilt the same way he'd learn to live with his physical limitations. PENANCE.

The teaser for D. A. Charles' Shattered reads "My family wanted to give me the best advantage when it came to adapting to the changes I'm facing, it would be difficult, I imagine, to be a person with a disability at home."

My good friend Sheryl is here and she is the only other #ChronicIllness blogger and patient leader I've met IRL in Asia. She's the best!
Oddly enough, after learning about #APS from her for years, I was diagnosed with it. You'll see lots of her content on my feed. I love to share her work!

Teaser for D. A. Charles' Shattered. The background has a ventilator with shattered glass. The teaser: Steven shook his head frantically. What kind of accident? His eyes jerked from side to side, trying to see past his limited field of vision. Where are MOM and DAD?
