Introducing An Agent’s Guide to BRIGHTER THAN TWO MOONS, a sapphic science fiction complete at 99k words. #WriteSky #AmQuerying #scifi #queer #AgentsGuide
Text on top of an image of a sailboat on a sea, on a sea against the backdrop of a glimmering night sky. Text reads: “BRIGHTER THAN TWO MOONS | An Agent’s Guide | Adult Sapphic Sci-Fi at 99,000 words” Text reads: “THE PITCH | Lyr delivers goods to the last of humanity on an asteroid-wrecked planet. When her sailboat’s AI glitches, Lyr sets sail in search of the last scientists to save her. With the aid of unwelcome allies, and obstruction from unexpected enemies, Lyr discovers yet another asteroid headed for her planet—and uncovers what doomed humanity in the first place. Love, lies, and asteroids collide in this slow-burn sapphic sci-fi mystery.” Background image is two moons above a dark sea. Moodboard images include an alien landscape; a comet; a redhead woman staring up into the sky; a sailor seated with their legs crossed; and a city crumbling into a sea. Text reads: “WRITING SAMPLE | I consider the woman in front of me, poised on the balls of her toes, like she’s ready to take off running for the docks the moment I give in; those eyes, so bright and full of hope; and come to the conclusion that she’s not a manipulative mastermind. No. Thalia Pellon is a naive idiot. I don’t get many visitors up here, she’d said. Sheltered up in that pretty little house, she’s probably never been hungry a day in her life. She’s never had to contend with the harshness of this planet, the anger of the sea, the ruthlessness of humanity. That’s how those green eyes got so wide; she never learned that it’s safer to keep them down, minding your own damn business. How did Dara pick this girl? “You’d really send a thousand pounds of dibizmine to Kojan for the vague promise of changing the future of humanity?” I sneer. It comes out just as cutting as I’d hoped. She deflates, rocking back on her heels. “Well, yeah. She says it’s going to help humanity survive our new reality—thrive, even. Haven’t you heard stories of what it used to be like on Salvar? Don’t you want that back? Don’t you want something more than… this?” She gestures down to the land again. Farmers work the field, knees in the dirt, woven baskets strapped across their backs, moving like the slow, deliberate hardback racha. Stalks of tall vegetation sway in the breeze, the sun’s rays catching in their purples and blues, illuminating them from the inside out. Beyond the edge of the fields glimmers that vast sea.” Set against a background image of two moons above a dark sea. Images show covers of comparable novels, which include: A CLOSED AND COMMON ORBIT, SOME DESPERATE GLORY, and THE BLIGHTED STARS. Themes from these books similar to BRIGHTER THAN TWO MOONS are highlighted, and include: found family, AI sentience, soft sci-fi world, aliens, mysterious interstellar threats, headstrong female protagonists, and a queer slow-burn love story.

From the Tortured Skaters Department: Freja Lindholm was down bad for Chloé LaFleur, but is the former Olympic bronze medalist the love of her life… or the loss of her life? Find out in THE ICE BETWEEN US.

#amquerying #agentsguide📌 #writingcommunity #romance #sapphic #figureskating #swiftie
I think about calling Sophie, but instead I just text her. "What's '#loml?'" I see the three bubbles, but they quickly go away. Then my phone rings. It's Sophie. "Okay, we need to get you listening to some Taylor Swift," she says as soon as I pick up. Which just confuses me even more. "Taylor Swift?" "'loml.' It's one of her songs. It stands for 'Love of My Life.'" Wow. That... that means a lot. But then, as I try to ignore the flood of new followers coming into my phone (apparently being outed as the love of Chloé LaFleur's life draws a bunch of attention among figure skating fans on social media), I wonder... was Chloé referring to me? Or skating? "If this is what love feels like, then I never want to be in love again." "Freja, you do not mean that." That's easy for Sophie to say. I look up and she's holding Wyatt's hand. God, they make it look so easy. In the three years they've been together, I don't remember seeing them fight even once. "I do." I look up and see the disappointed expressions on my friends' faces. "LOML... it doesn't mean what you said." "It stands for 'love of my life,'" Wyatt says. But he's not a Swiftie. Sophie is, and I can tell by the way her eyes refuse to make contact with mine that she knows where I'm going with this. "The song, the one by Taylor Swift? It stands for 'loss of my life.' She's singing about a relationship ending." "Your relationship is not ending," Sophie says. "When you see Chloé, what are you going to say to her first?" "If I see her, I think I'll say..." Sophie interrupts. "When you see her."

WHAT VENGEANCE MIGHT BRING

For fans of epic fantasy, elemental magic, dragons, reluctant heroines, and romantic subplots.

✨Rich world building
🗝️Found family
✨Secret history
🗝️Female rage
110k words || adult epic fantasy || Madelaine Atteberry An Agent’s Guide to WHAT VENGEANCE MIGHT BRING The background image is a yellow butterfly resting among a group of cobblestones. On the other cobblestones are faint runes. PITCH Rowen Ember would rather eat dirt than admit to her fabled ancestry, but violent attacks have revealed a mysterious gap in her people’s collective memory. Alongside a lordling, a bounty hunter, a markswoman, and a young rebel, Rowen must finally face that fairy tale that haunts her family name. Background image is a person with a torch exploring an abandoned brick building. Along the margins are faint runes. Below the pitch are three images of women superimposed with the words “anxiety” “rage” and “grit”. COMPS- three titles: The Obsidian Tower by Melissa Caruso, Air Awakens by Elise Kova, and Horizon: Zero Dawn. VIBES: action-packed quest; lost, runic language; found family; ancient ruins; dragons; reluctant chosen one; rugged, natural setting; swords, shields, & elemental magic. Background image is a forest path. Faint runes line the margins. SNIPPET: “Split knuckles. It’s always the split knuckles that last the longest. Every motion, each grasp of a mug, clench of a quill, idle drum of the fingers reawakens that nagging sting. What good are healers anyway, if they can’t fix the split knuckles after everything else? Rowen scowled down at her hands, covered in soft green bruises that had been nudged along that afternoon by a local healer. Of course, they hadn’t bothered with the angry, miniscule lacerations that crested her knuckles, but they had taken care of any lasting damage caused by that day’s spars. Conscious of the guaranteed response, she spread her fingers across the table before her, wincing as each joint protested the movement.” Background image is a crumbling ruin against a dark sky. Faint runes line the margins.

#amquerying my 85,000 word contemporary romance Love on the Vine. While working at the winery she recently inherited with her newfound half-brother, Becca rescues an actor hiding from an oversized role from rabid fans

🍷Dual POV
🍷Strangers-to-Lovers
🍷Found family

#writingcommunity #agentsguide
Love on the Vine Agent Guide Pitch: Becca Hopewell has trouble letting people in. She blames the death of her mom during childbirth and her father’s subsequent abandonment of her to a cold aunt. When she’s left part owner of a winery with her newfound half-brother she must decide if she’s willing to risk being rejected again. Not only by him, but by Ian Baker, the demi-god portraying, disillusioned actor she rescues from rabid fans while manning the winery’s Christmas market booth. *85,000 Word Contemporary Romance *Tropes: Different Worlds, Strangers-to-Lovers, Found Family Comps: Romantic Comedy-Curtis Sittenfeld Under Your Spell-Laura Wood Waiting for Tom Hanks-Kerry Winfrey We All Live Here-Jojo Moyes Notting Hill Quote: “You’re right. Better make it three. You’re too good a saleswoman. Even without the cheat sheet. Which begs the question: How does someone who professes not to know wine work for a winery?” “That’s a long, complicated story. Too long for a few sips of wine. Or coffee. Hell, I’m not even sure a three-course meal would suffice.” Becca froze. Eyes wide as her hands hovered over bottles. “That wasn’t me begging for an invitation or anything. Not that you thought such a silly thing. Or would ever think…” Becca snapped her lips shut. Avoided his twinkling eyes by assessing the progress of the three women. Now closer than she liked. With more make-up and hands that flattened flyaway strands. Their hungry look reminiscent of the wolf at grandma’s house. “And if I did?” “What?” The man followed Becca’s frantic glance. His head snapped forward. His body straightened and angled more towards Becca and away from the women’s eager glances. The openness, the calmness disappeared like wine at an awkward Christmas party.

*BIG FIVE EDITOR INTEREST*

the #agentguide for the dual-pov YA Fantasy (109k) I'm currently querying! 📖

AWAKENING is a story on the effects of guilt, the consequences of betrayal and the summons of destiny 🗡️🥀

REALM BREAKER x ATLA x HEIR

#YA #F #querying #agentsguide #BVM #writing #litagents
an agent's guide to awakening by o.c. umeghalu the pitch - For Cindren Alacaster, guilt is her anchor as much as it is her jailer. Thrust upon a whirlwind journey to rescue her friend from certain death, she finds that the abnormality of her golden eyes speaks of a heroic ancestry whispered amongst the forsaken. Something once slumbering has emerged in totality, painting her destiny as dark as the cloak she was born to wear. As the country’s prince, Nazar Heiron should know better than looking to follow his own heart. But the stirring of longing he’s hidden deep within forces him to walk the razor-thin line of desire and treachery for the only girl he’s ever loved: his personal sentry. And when the truth of the last war to be fought on his country’s soil emerges, he must decide whether or not to put into practice once empty words that championed justice or finally step into the hypocrisy he’s believed to nurture. themes/comps - Forged Family (the Gaang, Quil and the others) Reckoning with Inner Turmoil (guilt, indecision, shame, responsibility) Ancestral Abilities (think Aang’s/Corayne’s birthrights) Bloodied Crown (think Zuko grappling with the Fire Nation seeking to conquer the world/Corayne looking to close Spindles opened by her uncle) Looming Global Threat (ie: Firelord Ozai/Taristan) Romantic Subplot (different love interest for each MC) Complicated Sibling Relationship (ie: Azula and Zuko) Betrayal (ie: Aiz and Quil) samples

⚔️demon slayer x heaven official's blessing⚔️

Centuries-old Kimori may be an accomplished warrior, but he remains ignorant on matters of the heart. He knows even less of the body. Anaise, his mortal foe, will gladly teach him.

a 100,000-word adult horror-romance--a dark, sensual epic wehre the line between violence and desire is razor-thin. a queer retelling of paradise lost. Centuries-old Archangel Kimori may be Heaven’s fiercest warrior, but when Anaise—the Exalted Reaper of Hell—takes him captive and demands surrender. Kimori makes a shocking offer: his body. What begins as a twisted bargain between millennia-old enemies burns into a searing romance, leaving both men doubting the vows that bind them to Heaven and Hell. With blood-soaked battles, high-angst heat, and angels plotting in shadows, it tells the story of forbidden love made into both rebellion and ritual. 1. demon slayer stakes, atmosphere, cinematic battles 2. heaven official’s blessing devotional romance 3. a dowry of blood introspective protagonist They say a curse rises from an oath split by a lover’s lips. Kimori, infamous archangel, is heavy in Anaise’s arms as he jumps over log after log, weaving in between the tall trees whose branches reflect the white moonlight. Swarms of insects scatter on his approach. Anaise had been battling for far too long, having approached his limit; once graceful feet pound into the earth. Moon—lustrous, luminous—hangs in careful suspension, watchful of the dawn’s inevitable approach. She observes the figures below.  A catastrophe disguised as mere disagreements among gods slouches toward them all.

Dear #litagents, I'm happy to present an #agentsguide for a revised version of WE SANG DOWN THE EMPIRE an 85K word Adult #SPACEOPERA. This will be pitched for #DVpit!

#WOC #SouthAsian #Asian #A #SF #SFF #POC
ALT
A Speculative Fiction Space Opera 85,000 Words Freeing the Galaxy Begins with Healing Yourself This features an ethereal image from Joshua Mays with a woman holding a globe of sound magic. The pitch is: Washed-up alien musician Nesamma Abbas joins a rebel rock band plotting a galaxy-wide uprising against the Human Empire. As the rebellion hurtles toward its final battle, she must confront her past, master the ancient martial art of sound, and choose between revolution and healing the galaxy. This is the comparisons page showcasing books with similar themes to WE SANG DOWN THE EMPIRE The First Book is Rebecca Roanhorse's Black Sun with this text: Epic in scale Explores generational trauma Dazzling System of Magic The next book is Space Oddity by Catherynne Valente with this text: Distinctive Worldbuilding And Marvelous Alien Races The Last book is A Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers with this text: Soothing Narrative Philosophical and Poignant Exploration of Healing This is just an excerpt of WE SANG DOWN THE EMPIRE: Everyone can recall the first time they heard or saw Nesamma. Mine was outside a café in New Jerusalem. Her wide eyes, rimmed with golden kohl, her bronzed java skin, lean, quick frame, and her hair that cascaded like liquid onyx past her hips—I remember it all. I never knew what I was missing until I heard the longing in hers. Raw and husky, with the timbre of truth, such a voice comes once in a generation, once in a galaxy. Even now, in certain alien districts on Earth, they whisper her name like that of a prophet who offers mystical proofs. Was she not trained by Oopan Brass, the last singing-warrior monk of Lethaa? A genius in his own right, blending the arts of war and song. The monks of Lethaa stood at the forefront of each battle, their fierce drums and songs the single force capable of turning the tide in their favor. Before her final performance, Nesamma began with a quote from their holy book: “A song is a thing of both physics and psyche, for the right song can slice glass as easily as it can open an opponent’s heart.”
