Keep your em-dashes and colons. Drop your “not ___, but ___”, your clichés, your paragraph conclusion sentence, and unearned metaphors.

One year ago I started writing a romantasy on my phone while holding a sleeping baby. Now I'm 2.5 books in, and I can confidently say it's not just a phase. 😆

a background of frost and ice with the words An Agent’s Guide to Be Gay Do Crimes WIP.

a background image of frost and ice. The pitch for Be Gay Do Crimes WIP: To keep her queer crew from being kicked out of their gang, 24 year-old thief Ness must steal a prince, get him to his rich aunt, and keep her pretty nemesis from interfering. Falling for both of them wasn’t in the plan. A collage of memes for Be Gay Do Crimes WIP: -steal everything your gay little hands can carry -middle spoon -the nonsense has escalated -* instant regret * -the sexual tension when someone says "make me" -Be Gay do Crimes -A knife? Are you flirting with me? -A cat walking on two legs carrying an umbrella and carpet bag. Sheet music with the caption I don't know where I'm going but I'm gay -A tweet from @ MaineMillennial: the goal of polyamory is to acquire enough partners to pull off a successful heist.

a background of frost and ice. For fans of Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland (fun romp, horny MC), A Power Unbound by Freya Marske (queer fantasy romance, cool magic system), Little Thieves by Margaret Owen (female con MC, cat-and-mouse romance), 1997 Anastasia movie (banter, travel) Ocean’s Eight movie and The Gilded Wolves by Roshani Chokshi (heists, found family).

a background of frost and ice. An excerpt from Be Gay Do Crimes WIP: “Stop, thief.” Ness stills. She knows that voice. Smooth blades of midnight wrapped in silk. A frisson of excitement shoots down Ness’ spine, and she has to force herself to turn slowly. It’s bad form for a mouse to appear too eager to entice the cat into a heart-pounding chase. Though she’s shrouded in shadow, she meets Melirin’s flinty gaze unerringly. Her obsidian eyes glint with a spark of challenge.

Picking locks is a bit like discovering what makes a lover come undone; it requires patience, focus, and a dash of magic. Luckily for Ness, she happens to have all three.

“Rosa’s neck prickled, right at the base of her skull, like a stiff breeze on sweaty skin. And the whisper came. Nothing so evil as magic. Just a cunning. A trivial gift. And it told her the words to say to loosen any tongue that already sat poised to spill a story.

Four images in a grid with AN IRRATIONAL FEAR OF BLOOD in the center. First image: a southern oak covered in spanish moss. Second: a conference room filled with empty chairs. Third: a hand holding a smartphone in front of their steering wheel, showing a 90s-era forum called Sparkle Net. Fourth: a gator's head breaking otherwise calm waters.

A southern oak dripping with spanish moss and backlit by the sun. Beneath, text: I could see the world in excruciating detail. See the breaks in the bark and the ants marching up the trunk. See the lichen in its vivid greens, splotches like a handprint. See an actual handprint on the shadowed side of the oak. See the dried blood, an outline. And see, when I tilted my head back, the body draped almost lovingly in the great arms of the big oak.

An empty conference room. Below, text: She’d even put together a buffet table. Somewhere, she’d found light blue table cloths and draped them across several long tables, even set out a few bowls of what appeared to be wilted lettuce, shredded cheese, and plain popcorn. Marring her display, though, were the bodies.

A mock up of a 90s-era internet forum called SparkleNet. Below, text: Out of habit, I checked the Sparkle Net app. There were a few new posts, nothing of interest. I used the notes to log my feeding session—always a good idea to keep track, if only to avoid double-dipping—and was just putting my phone away when I smelled it. Blood.

A vampire who faints at the sight of blood must stop a messy murderer before her community becomes a target for vampire hunters.

A mood board with a light blue background and the title The Society of Curse Breakers in the center. From left two right: a picture of an old fashioned diver, the words found family, a picture of a brick mansion, the words urban fantastic a picture of a plane, the word curses, a picture or a tunnel, the word spirits, a old fashioned sailing ship, the word pirates, a picture of a lighthouse, the word strange villians and cryptids, a map of Florida’s a swamp, the word folklore, the words diverse magic systems, a capybara, a message in a bottle.

To break a curse she is wrongly accused of casting, Alice must team up with a crew of untrained magic wielders and sail treacherous seas, battling folktales and cryptids. A map of riddles guides their way, but the family secrets it reveals may be the most deadly barrier of all. #wspit #q #f #nd
