I hate that I edit as I write because it means I spend at least 20 minutes on a single paragraph in my WIP. 😂😭🫠 I can’t write any other way—I’m a perfectionist, and I have to edit as I go. #amwriting

Shoutout to the agents who read & responded with such kindness. Their step-aside letters were so sweet, it brought tears to my eyes. I’m blessed to have connected with such amazing people. One more to hear back from—thank you all for being a part of this chapter with me!

Nina Castle @castlemantra.bsky.social · 2y ago

The CEO's son makes May crawl the first time they meet. But she'd do worse for HealthCorp's miracle cure-all, including ally w/ him to steal it from his bastard father. His offer to teach her the art of seduction? Well, that's a risk she's willing to take. #QuestPit 🌶️ #A #Dystopian #Q #agentsguide

Book cover for Nina Castle's Take as Prescribed. Woman with open mouth and pill on her tongue while a man's hand grips her neck.

Nina Castle’s Take As Prescribed, a spicy adult dystopian, first page teaser: CHAPTER 1
Thoughts and prayers aren’t worth much, at least south of the Divide. It’s a sentiment the plastics use when they hear of things like our mortality rate or ever-increasing birth defects, but don’t be fooled. This is America where thinking’s outdated, and we pray to pills.
In the north, they manufacture god in pharmaceutical bottles labeled “GeNew.” Not that anyone I know could ever afford it. Health, wealth, and beauty belong to the financially devout. To be fair, we all love money…it just doesn’t love us all back.
Uncle David tells me food’s the problem as he peels away two breakfast cubes from their thin plastic wrapping.
“It’s this damn processed shit makin’ us sick,” he says, smacking the pot harder than necessary on the single electric burner.
Guess it’s boiled cube, today.
“They price gouge us with poison, then try to sell us the cure. It’s all about money, May, mark my words. Those bastards at HealthCorp don’t give a damn about us unless we’re paddin’ their pockets.”
I nod along as I always do when the injustice inside him spills out in the form of a rant. David’s from a time they remembered whole foods, even if what they ate was a mere semblance of the real thing. Perhaps in Europe and the Asias it still exists along with their muffled cries for human rights.
As for me, I can’t be angry. Anger takes energy, of which I’ve little to spare. Like everyone this side of the Divide, I’m ugly with deformities. Weak with sickness. My broad shoulders hunch, and my spine curves to a hump at the base of my neck. My fragile hair litters our single room apartment like the black polyester threads from our tattered clothes. Like everyone, I am dying.

The Pitch: Health, wealth, and beauty in a single pill - if only you could afford it. In future America, HealthCorp's lottery is May's best shot at escaping poverty & winning her unrequited love. But when the CEO's son offers to help her steal it, she'll risk not only his betrayal, but her heart.

Comps: future government corruption meets Hozier level pining. Book image of The Marriage Act by John Marrs and Chain Gang All-Stars by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah with a Hozier album.

Themes: Spicy friends with benefits, American anger, power and control, facial and body dysmorphia, chronic illness rep, class divide and inequality, billionaire romance gone broke, social justice themes, and Healthcare corporate corruption.

REBECCAxRIVIERAxTHE PERFECT COUPLE She's always tried to do the 'right thing', but when a death becomes a suspected murder, a PR exec must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves. They all have motive. Esp. the dead woman's husband. The man she's in love with. #QuestPit #Q #A #R #MY

A man in a villa swimming pool at night. Partial photo of a dead woman floating in water. A man and woman kissing. Words: 'Some secrets are best left buried' around the central photo of a man carrying a woman's limp body in his arms. Other photos; a woman gazing up at a man; a woman in a party dress running up a staircase; a woman screaming, her head thrown back; a smashed wine glass; a broken phone; a couple embracing, the man comforting the woman.

NINTH HOUSE x A LESSON IN VENGEANCE Aster would do anything to be the best writer the world has seen— even if it means spilling her blood to commune with the greats that came before her and losing the ones she loves the most. #Q #A #DF #PR #QuestPit

A Victorian house, a dark forest, a woman with a mirror for a face, a fawn, moths with flowers, a university gate, words on a page, and a university library

ONE DARK WINDOW x IMMORTAL DARK Nocturne's halls hold secrets darker than Alyss ever imagined. With sinister professors & corrupted moon magic, she'll need to work with her ex, his new girl, & an infuriately charming vampire to avenge her sister's murder. #QuestPit #Q #YA #DF

A Memory of Moonkissed Malice
Villain Era Protag
Frenemies to Lovers
Queendoms
Found Family
Fantasy Dark Academia
Vampires
Feminine Rage
Corrupted Moon Magic

The Pitch
18-year-old Alyss Veylas wishes to attend Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school’s guardian, she finally gets that chance. Armed with a Moon Fragment granting memory magic, and the aid of her ex and his new girlfriend, Alyss must confront the woman who took away the person she loved most.

Chapter One
The rain made it easier to rob his grave.
My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night’s whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us.
Us.
As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

For Fans Of...
The lush, gothic prose of...
A fantasy academia setting like...
A murder mystery similar to...

Agent's Guide to CARELESS WHISPERS which was Longlisted for the Joffe Books Prize 2024. REBECCA x Sky Atlantic's RIVIERA × Netflix's THE PERFECT COUPLE The woman knew secrets; now she's dead. Everyone has a motive... 💥Secret 💥Slow❤️‍🔥 💥Obsession 💥Unrequited💘 💥Betrayal 💥Murder #Questpit #A #Q #R #MY

Page 1 with background of the cliffs and sea at sunset. Split diagonally with on one side the text:An Agent's Guide to Careless Whispers, Romantic Suspense, and piece of dialogue:

'...our very own Greek tragedy,' says Troy. 'It has it all. Sex, money, adultery. Even - if you believe the rumours - murder.'

On the other side is The Pitch: When a death becomes a suspected murder, a PR exec must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves. They all have a motive. Especially the man she loves. The dead woman's husband.

Page 2 is entitled Opening Lines.

As the song fades out, she hears the footsteps behind her. She doesn't rise from the lounger or turn her head, just takes another gulp of her wine, her eyes fixed on the pearl-button moon plucking itself free from a straggle of clouds.

'I told you to leave,' she says, her voice blurred. 'It's over. There's nothing more to say.'

'There's plenty I have to say.'

Her head whips round then. She smiles.

She'd been wondering if one of them will turn up. She'd refused to go to the stupid party. They're all stuck-up and boring, and they hate her so she knows she won't be missed. But sitting here alone by the pool, drinking, waiting for her phone to ping a reply – any kind of response! – she'd grown bored and been thinking maybe she ought to go after all. Just to spoil their fun.

Page 3 has Tropes & Themes - du Maurier's Rebecca vibes; Found family; Loss; Slow burn romance; Obsession; Unrequited love; Secrets; Betrayal; Murder

And The Comps – Nanny Wanted by Lizzy Barber, End of Story by AJ Finn, The Perfect Couple by Elin Hilderbrand, Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier and the Sky Atlantic series Riviera

Page 4 The Vibes - moodboard with the following photos - the Acropolis at night; a man in a villa swimming pool at night. A note saying 'I know what you did'; a couple kissing; a Mrs Danvers type silhouette parting fine, lace curtains. In the centre is a partial photo of a dead woman floating in water. Either side is a photo of a man standing at a desk, hanging his head; a couple's clasped hands; a lone man standing on a rock by the sea; a woman gazing up at a man, her arms round his neck. Last row has a woman screaming, her head thrown back; the silhouette of a woman in a party dress running; a smashed wine glass and broken phone; a car driving away on a deserted coastal road at night; and a couple embracing, the woman tearful.

Her reunion with her long-lost brother is complicated when he kills his lover. She helps him clean up—because that’s what family is for, probably—and now he is enamored with her. Awkward. Or useful? #questpit #Q #A #T #H

CABIN IN THE WOODS X JOHN DIES AT THE END X KNIVES OUT When their detective friend is murdered during their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must use their years of TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly-written campaign. #QuestPit #A #H #MY #W

moodboard layout with 9 squares 3 x 3, 6 have over the top terrified men (the dads), along the top and bottom 3 squares. Blood decal drips from top squares through the middle to the bottom ones. A Victorian mansion silhouette sits in the middle most left square, the title DAD BODIES in the middle, and right of that is the silhouette of a d20 with a skull icon showing.
