One week!!! 👀👀👀

Star chart means it’s serious over here. ⭐️ What do we think of a romantasy with women in STEM, science-based magic, a dark-haired, sharp-jawed love interest who leans in the doorway (sleeves rolled up of course), and a side of taking down the academic patriarchy? Yes or yes? #writesky #amdrafting

There’s a difference between “writing to market” & intentionally writing to signal to your readers. It’s not either or, but rather using these things on purpose. Tropes get a bad rep on socials but they’re the common language between writer and reader.

I’ve been revising my Speculative upper YA Feminist Horror, after an R&R & mentorship. I have agents waiting on the full & I'd love to find #CampRevPit writer moots to be #BetaReaders & CPs *When Simone summoned her murdered cousin, she wasn't Nina anymore. Now they call her The East River Wraith.

We're having so much fun reading through your pitches! Just a small reminder to trade sample chapters (or whatever length you're comfortable with) to ensure you're a good working match. Not everyone is meant to be your CP or beta, and THAT'S OKAY!

Hey all you crazy #CampRevPit people, I'm looking for potential critique partners, alpha and beta readers for my horror comedy novel (even just a chapter or two). I've included the brief rundown in the image below. Let me know if this nonsense is your kinda jam. #A #H #WIP #ABCPit

#ABCpit #CampRevPit Dark fantasy - 107k words When a god breaks from its cage of stars to terrorize an isolated community, a famous warrior who can sense magic must hunt it down—and the person controlling it—before they kill again. Looking for a CP or two for June. #A #F #ContentTW

Always down for more beta readers/critique partners! This will be for Those Who Carry My Bones, an adult fantasy featuring my trademark dead gods, gothic vibes, and uno-reversed gender roles. Looking to query over the summer! #ABCPit #CampRevPit #CRPDirewolves #A #F #RF #DF #ContentW

Hello campers! I am always down for a beta swap...and swappers sometimes turn into CPs! I love fantasy, sci-fi, horror or anything weird. I sometimes have a line but I read a lot! Also, hit me up if anyone still needs an invite to the RevPit Discord. #CampRevPit #ABCPit #CRPNightcrawlers

My new #wip Sins of Thunder Road will be ready for Alpha on June 1st. #A #R #Queer #ABCPit #CampRevPit #ContentTW Happy to explain more via chat. But it’s a queer dark romance between a devil and a merperson featuring marriage of convenience, s work, the mafia and obsession.

I'm looking for critique partners for my contemporary British folk horror story - currently in the very early stages of drafting. If this sounds like your kind of thing, please reach out. #A #H #WIP #ABCPit

Save this for later #CampRevPit #CRPSirens This’ll make writing that synopsis so much less painful!

#CRPSirens I need your tips on creating tension! Emily Varga shared on On The Write Track Podcast that if your one MC is a firefighter, the other better be an arsonist. Now I’m always asking: How can I create opposition? What do they have to overcome? How do you approach tension? LMK👇

#CRPSirens did you see this Query Bootcamp? I know many of us are querying (or will be in the future) so SAVE THESE to refer to later!

#CRPSirens let’s yap about our characters! Of course knowing their physical appearance is part of getting to know our characters, but often those quieter questions really get us thinking. What’s in your character’s pocket? Let me know below 👇 Make sure to comment on your fellow campers’ posts🧜‍♀️

Alright #CRPSirens we’ve spent 7 days together. Let’s gather around the campfire get into those juicy details! How did your characters meet? I would LOVE to see your snippets, too 👀 #CampRevPit

#CRPSirens we need more than bug spray and bandages for our #CampRevPit survival guide. Let’s compile our go-to Writer Resources. Thread them below so we have them in one place and save it for later to refer back to! Extra challenge: respond to two (or more!) other campers 🏕️ I’ll start below 🧵

I mean, I’m not here to confirm rumours but I’m also not NOT confirming them… 🤭#CRPSirens #CRPBeeMine #CampRevPit

Rise & Shine #CRPSirens ☀️ My relationship with writing has changed over the years, & each project has required different things from me. Sometimes it was sneaking in a sentence on my phone during a sliver of nap time or scribbling in a journal in the dark hours once the littles went to bed. Cont⬇️

#CRPSirens you all filled my cup (shell?) and it overfloweth with excitement. So much so, I believe I’m cursed with excessive exclamation point use!! Forgive me in advance! (Or, you know, join me!!!!) (There are no exclamation points in my MS just my texts apparently)

✨Story time!✨Each night we'll be posting a Starlight Story from #CampRevPit, sharing a behind-the-scenes look at all the fun! In our first tale, we're highlighting @seeclarkewrite.bsky.social from Cabin #CRPBeeMine! Great job connecting with other campers. We're ready to gather around the camp fire!

Good morning #CRPSirens 🧜🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️ I’m Nadine & I write romantic fantasy books. My book, MYTH, MUSE, MAGICIAN just hit the query trenches & I’m working on my next project which includes a second chance romance, women in STEM, only-one-textbook, and a MMC with a devastatingly-sharp jawline 😏 (Cont. 🧵)

Hope everyone's ready and packed for #CampRevPit! 🏕️ Here are some key camp dates to keep in mind. See you around the campfire tomorrow!

Hey #CampRevPit while we’re waiting, how about some #RevPets ? This is Harry, the loyalest, floofiest dood. He likes long walks on the beach, sleeping on the couch, and chewing his rope. Last summer he taught me something I’ll never forget: don’t get your dog wet after they meet a SKUNK!

We are VERY excited but are also squeezing this in between our responsibilities. Those emails are coming! *camp voice* Best Camp EVER! *flips ponytail* Also, peep a sneaky secret hint in the comments 👀 #CampRevPit #CRPSirens

May or may not have sent some emails 💌 #CampRevPit #CRPSirens 🧜🧜‍♀️🧜‍♂️

Hey writing friends! I’ll be a Cabin leader this year and would LOVE to hang out with you! Sign ups open later today. Who is signing up?

WELCOME TO PREVIEW WEEK! While we're waiting for our winners, let's go over what you need for camp. 1st- What is #CampRevPit? #CampRevPit came out of the 2020 Annual Contest when mental health was suffering and was an idea for how to help writers cope with rejection after winners were announced.

Hey #revpit #revpitwaiting who is excited for #camprevpit? What genre are you writing? Let's be friends! (also rejoicing over camp without the need for bug spray)
