Was talking to a volunteer and said I want to live in a house like the Jetsons and she goes “oh my dad was the architect whose design inspired the Jetsons houses” RIP architect John Lautner we would’ve been creative besties in another life I know it
I’m behind this guy who owns a business talking about how he:
1. Doesn’t hire people with kids
2. Doesn’t hire Gen Z
3. Doesn’t hire people with priorities outside of work
And he is going on and on about how everyone is lazy and doesn’t want to work. People want to live life, not make you $$$
My sister is flying me first class and thinks I’ll sit next to someone to make a connection with.

Yes fellow APD people!!! My FMC in my WIP has it, and while everyone’s experience is different, I hope one day people will read it understand APD and how living with it makes you feel.
I was taught to hate my Middle Eastern features by my immigrant family. Why? White people are treated better
Arabic last name? Changed. Curly hair? Straightened!
To say white people are discriminated against for anything, especially #writing is absurd & a sign of major privilege

I went to a Christian highschool and while I’m agnostic, I argued with teachers and classmates relentlessly about the way they spoke of homeless people, LGBTQ+ community, minorities, and women.
I’d quote the passages we read to argue and it was me and a few other kids against the ENTIRE class
I know comps are to show the vibes of the story, but I want to comp books that sold semi well!
Question for #litagents and any #authors and #writers
How do you track books in your genre and know if they are selling well? Publishers Marketplace?
I’m gearing up for finding comps. Any advice is appreciated ✨🤩

Thank you, Dawn!!
Movie poster concept for I Am Chosen, a paranormal romance by Dawn Berkoski. Art and photography by Dawn Berkoski. It depicts a man in a hoodie (Jason) walking in a dark alley towards a man in a suit. (Alex)
Raised by corporate vampires with little freedom or choice, Alex is used to Yakuza business rivals and back-alley deals. But nothing prepares him for Jason, a witty bartender who challenges everything he knows, and who harbors secrets as deadly as the vampires after him. #PosterPit #Q #R #A #writing
They are SO beautiful I agree!!

A faux movie poster for The Pirate, the Princess, and John featuring a silhouetted ship sailing on a layered blue ocean toward a distant castle under a pale moon, with three character names at the top: “Amir (the pirate),” “Mira (the princess),” and “John (for now).” Below the ship is the quote: “A ship in harbor is safe, but that isn’t what ships are built for.” The title appears in large white serif letters, and at the bottom is the tagline: “YA fantasy, 82k, multi-POV; anti-colonial, non-Western, political intrigue; besties to lovers, found family, platonic ‘touch her and die’; strong girls, big feelings, sharp prose; diverse, queer, magical.” The author’s X handle @SARADURANAUTHOR and Bluesky handle SARADURAN.BSKY.SOCIAL appear in the lower right corner.

A harmony of witches tropes. Close ownvoices autistic 1st person pov, sapphic childhood friends to lovers, trans coming of age, magic has a scent, cozy greenhouse in the garden vibes, surprising and hilarious midpoint twist
Excerpt from chapter 2 Something Sharpe. These violets are lovely! Oh, Zen—Zenora you have no idea how worried i was that you’d be stuck in that weak state forever. But you’ve blossomed, just like the Allflower!
#QueerPit Three gay witches—a transfemme autist, an abused music witch, and a burnt out prodigy—team up to supply magic to a sentient ancient flower for three months. The problem? The flower’s not supposed to be sentient. MC must learn to regulate her emotions to fix her mistake.
Moonflowers with a blue tint, a woman shrouded in a veil, an overgrown window with a ripped note over the image reading "promise you'll come back." "Will you recognize my soul?" Next to stained glass windows. A hand leaves flowers on a grave, and a hand reaches through webs.

Blue Crush 🌊 x Sirens 🧜🏼♀️
When wanting to drown your ex after they break your heart is a normal feeling it’s also a normal reaction in Breaker Bay 💔
And when you’re a girl gang of sirens whose love language is violence…
It’s a little too normal🧜🏼♀️
