I’m at $885/$1,000 goal for the week! If you need a query critique, 50 page partial critique, want a date with a book, or need a new website:

Movie poster with a wall of green wet dripping leaves as the background. Top: the white italicized text reads Beasts of Prey x The Forest Demands Its Due. At an angle is the title “The Paths We Take” in capitalized white font next to three pictures (also angled): a Black boy profile, a roaring leopard profile, and a Black girl with colorful braids profile. The background image is from ShotDeck, the other three pictures are from Pinterest. Below the title and three images is the movie pitch: Two teens race through a corrupted rainforest toward separate goals, ultimately changing each other and stirring a revolution (and falling in love). Below the title is a logline: A chance encounter of a lifetime… Along the bottom of the poster are awards surrounded by leaf crowns – “Best Visual Effects”, “Best Editing”, “Best FMC” (female main character), “Best MMC” (male main character), “Best Dual POV” (point of view) Bottom text reads “Young Adult Romantic Fantasy by Brandi Ziegler”

Poster #2 for my #PosterPitA #YA #R #F with some wishful awards. 🤩

#PosterPit has been a blast!!

Thank you!! 🤞🏾Hopefully an accurate quote 😅

This is a great poster!! Wow

This sounds so fun (yes YA SF!) and I love the poster!!

Memories hold more than faces. Renaya Gillox. Alecto Mordan. METAL BONES, PLASTIC HEART, in the query trenches June 2025. A robot hand holds a red plastic heart. One half of the poster is red, the other blue. Faint binary code in the background.

Lonely hacker Renaya must help a kind android boy recover his memories so she can solve her father's murder—before those behind it get to her first. #PosterPitW #PosterPit #YA #SF

Omg amazingly creepy!

This is a movie or show poster for "Dad Bodies," a comedy horror murder mystery. The poster features several men with exaggerated expressions of shock, fear, and surprise arranged around the title. The title "DAD BODIES" is prominently displayed in the center, with "DAD" in white text and "BODIES" in red. Above the title, text reads "STARRING DAVE VINCENT SAM HANK MARV & TROY IN" and below the title is the tagline "HOW MANY DADS DOES IT TAKE TO SOLVE A MURDER?" The background has a reddish color scheme with what appears to be stylized monster teeth or jaws framing the image, giving it a horror aesthetic. At the bottom of the poster, it states "A CO(S)MIC HORROR MURDER MYSTERY BY B. VAN BOEGOM." The poster combines horror and comedy elements with the expressions of the men suggesting both fear and humor, a comedic take on the horror genre centered around a group of fathers.

CABIN IN THE WOODS×JOHN DIES AT THE END×KNIVES OUT

When their detective friend is murdered during their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must use their years of ttrpg experience to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly-written campaign.

Doom scrolling 💀 instead of reading 📚(trying to finish 2nd book of 2025 before Feb) or editing ✨

Although I am seeing agents open to queries and writers getting agented/going vague so there’s that between the doom and gloom 🎉 rooting for y’all
