I really hope we can rebuild here, or another option, without too many hiccups.
Me learning we can finally tag things on this site. 🫠 #writingcommunity
A shapeshifting demon, a magic scholar, and a magician team up (and maybe hook up) to take on a murder cult spreading paper curses across their city.

Now on sub!
I'm wondering why you would jump into a conversation that wasn't about you and immediately drop some Islamophobia for no reason. (But I guess the reason is kind of obvious, huh?)
I just saw this!!! People are so weird.
There is no point asking my dad how often he thinks about the Roman Empire, because if you ask him “What happened on [this date] in history?”, he can rattle off at least three different events on the spot. His power is beyond mere Romans.
Officially querying my SORCERY OF THORNS meets A MARVELLOUS LIGHT dark academia fantasy novel!

A historian of magic, a wayward heir to a magician dynasty, and a demon are forced to work together to stop a diabolical cult.

#amquerying
At 132.5k words, the first draft of the demon polyam magic cult story is DONE.
One of the most helpful things that I have learned to do while querying is to have a whole folder of frequently asked for sample documents, ready to deploy for different agents’ requirements. Trust me, it will save you so much time. (Do the same for queries, your biography, pitches, and comps!)
A list of several Google Document files labeled as the first 10k words, first 50 pages, first chapter, first 10 pages, and first 3 chapters.
Five chapters left and I’m already at 113k. 😰 And I need to go back and ADD more world building. This is going to be tough.
