An agent’s guide to: “Mark of a Magpie” YA Romantic Fantasy 119k Words Behind the text is a piece of parchment paper surrounded by ocean water and gold flower outlines.

Blurb: One for Sorrow, Two for Joy, Three for a Girl, Four for a Boy… Ryn is a small-town thief with a knack for being overconfident in her abilities, but by day she’s a beloved tavern girl with the liver of steel that carries her reputation. On her most daring break-in yet, she runs face first into the kingdom’s last living assassin, Seven, and he’s just offered her the opportunity of a century: a ticket of attendance to the King’s upcoming courtship gathering. It’s a partnership she’d definitely be a fool to take up, but desperation fuels ever decision she makes. Five for Silver, Six for Gold… Seven is set in his own plans, however much they interfere with hers, and they won’t be the only ones in attendance with hidden agendas. When the castle goes into lockdown, it’s survival of the cunning and silver-tongued. The rich are dropped like flies, and all suspicions are on them. Seven for a Secret, Never to be Told. The text is on a piece of parchment paper, with ocean water and gold flower outlines behind it.

Tropes: Thief x Assassin Mental Health Rep Identity vs Duty Class Difference Forced Proximity Secret Code Morally Gray Women’s Wrongs Unlikely Allies to Lovers Text is on a piece of parchment paper. Besides the text are two headshot drawings: one of a girl with brown hair pulled back by braids, and the other of a black-haired boy with a worried expression. Behind the parchment paper are ocean waters with gold flower outlines.

The Atmosphere: There is a collage of pictures on a parchment paper. Picture one is of a boy crouched down with his head covered as a fire burns in the background. Picture two is of two hands tied to a pole on the beach. Picture three shows a person wrapping up the wounded hand of another. Picture four shows an old piece of parchment with unreadable script. Picture five is of an island with a castle and small village surrounding it. Picture six is of a girl on the run with a dagger in hand. Behind the collage of pictures are ocean waters, with gold flower outlines surrounding it.

Reasons to love To Ruin the Sky

ELECTRIC SEXUAL TENSION. Excerpt reads: There's a possessiveness in how he touches me and I wish I hated it. "How would you punish me?" I breathe out, unable to control my impulses. Fingers touch my zip as he slowly slips it down, millimetre by millimetre. My body is completely in his thrall, unable to decipher the beat of my heart from the thump of the speaker's bass. Cloudy background with one half of a lightning bolt

MORALLY-GREY IS THE COLOUR OF CHOICE... Two moodboards with information about the two main characters

INCLUDES TOP TIER TROPES... Four book comparisons: Crescent City, Kingdom of the Wicked, Book of Azrael, Quicksilver with tropes attached The other half of a lightning bolt with a cloudy background

A Memory of Moonkissed Malice Villain Era Protag Frenemies to Lovers Queendoms Found Family Fantasy Dark Academia Vampires Feminine Rage Corrupted Moon Magic

The Pitch 18-year-old Alyss Veylas wishes to attend Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school’s guardian, she finally gets that chance. Armed with a Moon Fragment granting memory magic, and the aid of her ex and his new girlfriend, Alyss must confront the woman who took away the person she loved most.

Chapter One The rain made it easier to rob his grave. My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night’s whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us. Us. As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

For Fans Of... The lush, gothic prose of... A fantasy academia setting like... A murder mystery similar to...

time for a #sundaysnippet 🌿🍂

just a little #sundaysnippet 🌿

just a little #sundaysnippet 🌿

Write out of fear. Write out of spite. Write out of anger, anxiety, love, hope, despair. Write that weird shit. Write fucked up stories. Write to inspire. Whatever it is, write what only you can write, what truly drives your passion. There is no one right way or motivator or inspiration. Just yours.

I struggled to keep up with this pitch event across two platforms and definitely paid more attention to the other one but THANK YOU so much to everyone who liked and reposted my pitch yesterday! 🥹🥹 I'm so grateful!
