Eleanor talking to Chidi: "What if it was like a time loop but it only restarted when she got m*rdered? And she was like, falling in love with the hot guy helping her but he couldn't remember her?" "You mean Happy Death Day or Eternal Sunshine?" "No! You're not getting it and my thing is different, so shut up."

Jack only had to wait TEN YEARS for her NBD. Bonus points for accuracy in the British countryside vibes. #amquerying yolo #UnhingedPit #R #romystery
Fairly accurate depiction of my writing process π
Lol thank you!
Venn diagram with three circles: Top circle - The Bookmaker of Pellmell (my book!) Left circle - Batman Right circle - Helena Bonham Carter Top-left overlap - love/hate vibes for their city Top-right overlap - Fight Club Left-right overlap - wears a lot of black Center overlap - canβt resist a dark FMC
One of the clearest pitches Iβve come up with, tbh π€£ Just sprinkle on a little dystopian fairy dust and a pinch of grounded magic, and weβre set!

Hahaha thanks!
Pedro Pascal for Vanity Fair, facing the camera with arms crossed. Over his torso reads, "me, trying to write a super awesome plot about a serial k*ller, a time loop, and a woman trapped," but in the mirror behind him is a distractingly nice ass, with the words "the romantic subplot" over it.
Me, trying not to get distracted #unhingedpit #q #t
That darn gay agenda
An Agent's Guide to Mortally Coiled, a time loop thriller with fantasy elements.
The pitch: Ocher's life resets every time her killer catches her. No matter what she does, he finds her and sends her back to the first night she died. But she's falling in love with the detective helping her, and she must escape before their relationship is erased.
Tropes: time loop, violence isn't the answer...or is it, how far would you go to save the ones you love, bittersweet romance.
The comps: A Quantum Love Story by Mike Chen, Happy Death Day, Wrong Place Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister.
Groundhog Day+Eternal Sunshine
Ocher's killer has trapped her in a time loop and only partnering with a handsome detective can free her. The problem with that is they're falling in love, but he can't remember her from loop to loop. #questpit #a #t #Q
It always surprises me when people say this. I have a chapbook including mine and my late father's poems which I pubbed on 'zon so family could have it. I literally never promote it, yet it sells at least a couple copies a month. Every month for 6 years. Easily my best seller lol

Blue ice cream from Smurf Island at Carowinds, an amusement park now owned by Paramount (fun fact, it was in R3!). I think it was pistachio but I'll never know because Smurf Island no longer exists π

Collage of photos: hands holding bloody pieces of glass, a lunar eclipse, a red exit sign, a woman and two children hugging (blurry), an hourglass in front of a red background, the silhouette of a man and woman in front of a door. Included are the words "together forever."

Thank you! I'm obsessed with it haha
You guys I really wanted to hang around and support all you lovely writers also pitching today, but work is literally exploding. I'll come back later!
an agent's guide to saltwater in their veins. the background is of the ocean and a lighthouse, with a purple sky behind it. this is the background for the rest of the images, too.
the pitch: in 1977, ash st. jude drowned. he was dead for two minutes, until a whale-shaped ocean god saved his life. it's 1988 now, and for the past eleven years, he's heard its constant chanting in the back of his back. Its blessing allows him a glimpse into the future, where the ocean has flooded the world. only he and the girl with the golden eyes, who he's only ever met in his dreams, will survive.
for fans of: the raven cycle. 80s glam metal. donnie darko. the river has teeth. my dearest darkest. california gothic. the lighthouse. summer sons.
themes & tropes: faith vs free will. coming of age and self-discovery. small town, big trouble. found family. mental health rep and queer rep. prophetic dreams.
THE RIVER HAS TEETH BUT IT'S CALIFORNIA IN 1988 AND THE MAIN CHARACTER IS TRANS

Lol the worst
Thanks for the shout-out Becca!
Reminder to comment on that art post or fanfic, and drop a review of that book. Telling creatives what you think, even if itβs just a one line sentence, truly does make a difference! And I donβt just mean βengagementβ. I mean it will make their day. Tell someone when you love their work π€
You're really gonna get me to read my favorite book again aren't you lol.
I wish more people who wanted to discuss this book had actually read this book.
