Best of luck with it all! 🩷

In terms of seeing it represented in fiction, I've read Lillie Lainoff's One For All which features an MC with POTS but outside of that I haven't seen much representation of POTS, or the conditions that tend to come with it. I would love to see more! I also plan to write some of my own rep one day!

For me, medication has been the biggest help. I take ivabradine, which regulates my heart rate significantly! Compression leggings have also helped, and also just being really aware of my temperature regulation. I overheat/freeze super easily, and both of these aggravate my symptoms.

In Bed By 11, also known as Asleep By 11's slightly less successful but no less triumphant cousin

Please check your kid’s Halloween candy tonight. Apparently requests for a synopsis are being hidden in candy bars.

Two figures stand back to back in a city at night. One holds a camera, his hands surrounded by electricity. One wears his hood up, face covered by a white muzzle mask and round goggles. Art by qwilann on Instagram!

A teen detective. A masked vigilante. An electromagical murder. What could go wrong?

My query inbox is opening again November 1-7!

I'm going to try to keep this one-week-a-month thing going in hopes that I eventually catch up. Thank you for being patient with me as I adjust to this new system! :)

Hi #SFPit,

I am out of ideas for pitch content, so if #literaryagents could check out my #agentsguide for my #YA #Q novel about:

✈️ space cadet influencers
✈️ rural-futuristic 🇦🇺
✈️ a mother/daughter activist duo
✈️ overcoming military propaganda

that would be rad, THANKS!

Mood board/Agent's guide for my novel CARGO - a queer SF/heist/romance - 110,000 words "Did you hear? There's a human on board." A graphic of the wall of a spaceship with sticky notes and polaroid photos taped up. There are twinkle lights hanging from the ceiling. alien ship's cook (fussy, anxious) + terrifying monster (ordinary human)

PITCH: Tai’s terrified of humans. Everyone is. Violent pack hunters, humans are notorious for their strength, sharp teeth, and carnivorous appetites. But the ship’s cook is safe among the multispecies crew of the cargo hauler Coreward Baker: everyone knows the warrior species rarely leave their own space. Then Captain Raz hires Clarke, a human horticulturist. Even after Tai overcomes their fear, they can’t stand Clarke. She’s bossy. Annoying. Useless in the galley, bad in a space suit. She might as well be cargo. Worse, she’s intent on befriending Tai—and why can’t they stop thinking about her, anyway? That’s when things go wrong. As Tai starts to realize their feelings for Clarke, they’re horrified to learn that nobody on their crew of dropouts and runaways is quite who they seem, least of all Clarke. And it’s no coincidence. Raz reveals they’ve each been handpicked for a heist he’s spent years planning—and no one’s allowed to say no. PRIORITIES: make dinner remain cozy haul cargo go for drinks pull off one last score try not to fall in love

FIRST PAGE: “Did you hear? There’s a Human on board.” I choked on my noodles and turned to stare at the diners at the next table. Like most of the restaurant’s patrons, the pair had hidden their profiles, a halfhearted attempt at anonymity. “Gross,” the speaker’s crewmate said, oblivious to my alarm. “I hope it leaves soon.” “Don’t let it hear you say that,” the first worker laughed. She made a show of looking for Humans, her eyes darting from table to table. It. I frowned. I knew the workers’ language distinguished between people and things, and ‘it’ was an unkind choice of words at best. The second worker shuddered. “I don’t know why we let themcome here.” The first laughed. “Are you going to stop them?”

COMPS: Murderbot by Martha Wells Someone You Can Build a Nest In by John Wisewell The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers TROPES: Non-binary narrator masking anxiety with sarcasm lying to themselves non-human perspective (afraid of humans) neurodivergent main characters metaphorically disabled protagonist slow-burn friends-to-lovers and enemies to lovers in the same relationship disabilitynorm and queernorm setting found family loveable pet/terrifying monster

F/NB WAYFARERS x MURDERBOT x SOMEONE YOU CAN BUILD A NEST IN

Everything fell apart when the human came aboard. Instead of nice meals and quiet cargo runs, Tai's stuck with bickering crewmates, sinister criminals, explosions, and worse, a human who wants to be friends. #SFPit #A #Q #R #SO #OV #LGBT

A Youtube channel homepage with a purple banner that reads THE LOWFLYERS YA scifi 94,000 words. The profile picture is of a red headed girl, and the channel title is Dennie Rhoda @CadetDennieRhoda. She has 10M subscribers and 202 videos. "To free her disgraced activist mother from home arrest, Dennie Rhoda ditches paintball to be an influencer on the ISS. But when her ragtag roommates go viral, and catch a conspiracy on film, she must escape the space station, wield her influencer, and pick up the fight her mother started, to stop an undercover threat." There are two youtube videos. One is called "Are Dennie and Xavian dating? THE TRUTH" and the other is called "Dennie and Maya react to Lowflyers Twitter 4"

🚨ATTENTION LITERARY AGENTS🚨
