AGENTS/EDITORS, here is my #AgentsGuide to THE ATTRITION, a YA dystopian romance where: 🌿 the earth is sentient & hungry for vengeance 🗡 with rivals to lovers who seek to uncover the truth no matter the cost ✨QUERYING👀 👀Editor Interest✨ #amquerying #WritingCommunity

all the while listening to Unwritten on repeat bc she’s just a girl who wants to feel the rain on her skin 😌 #UnhingedPit #YA #DS #Q

50kkkk in my rewrite of my ya dark fantasy ⚔️🥀💫 god i love this book 🥹

final stats for #FastDraftFeb ⚔️ starting status: 15k 🥀 current status: 44k ⚔️ total words written this month: ~ 29k so close to 50k omg

Warning: falling in love will result in death 🌊 assassin prince x bounty hunter pirate 🖤 a deadly quest for a dragon's egg 🌊 a blood pact that might require them to kill each other to break it 🖤 rivals to enemies to lovers to ???? #WSPitQ #NA #A #F #R

finally reached 30k in my rewrite of my YA dark fantasy so here’s a little book playlist to celebrate ⚔️🥀💫

Thrown into a quest with a group of thieves, an assassin prince & a bounty hunter pirate get stuck in a blood pact where they can't kill each other, but they must to break the bounties placed on their heads. The only problem? They may have fallen in love #QuestPit #Q #A #RF #F

Coveting her brother's throne is certainly a sin, but after Zerena challenges him to a death match for the throne, dragging her younger siblings into the contest, she must dabble in far worse sins to achieve her goals #QuestPit #Q #rewrite #YA #F #DF

In a competition where not only graduates kill each other to win but so will the sentient earth, Tabitha's survival relies on her rival. The more she explores the deadly flora, the more the lies of her life (and her feelings) unravel #QuestPit #Q #YA #SF #SFF #DS
