“a first draft doesn’t have to be perfect. a first draft doesn’t have to be perfect. a first draft doesn’t have to be perfect. a first draft doesn’t have to be perfect. a first draft doesn’t have to be perfect.” okay yeah but mine does 🤠

⚔ BLOODGUARDxTHE SERPENT AND THE WINGS OF NIGHT ⚔ "A deep, guttural cry rips from my chest and claws its way out of my throat. A scream so raw and unrestrained, it blazes hot in my lungs. The forest will soak up my pain." #1stLinePit #Q #YA #F

🌿 THE DEADINGxSotR 🌿 "That wall. That damn wall. That big, beautiful slab of concrete with its glittering forcefield. It haunts my dreams." 👀 editor interest 👀 #1stLinePit #Q #YA #SF #DS #SPF

🌊 WHEN THE MOON HATCHEDxNEVER KEEP 🌊 "The lifeless man at my feet gave no fight. What a shame. I prefer my hunts to have a little more thrill. More adrenaline. More zest." 👀 editor interest 👀 #1stLinePit #Q #NA #A #F #RF

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
