THE THIRD LOVE x THE NAMES After a sudden rebirth, Max wishes for an easy, love-filled life, ignoring the claim that his affection is cursed. As he avoids work & devotes himself to his beloved, de*th finds his loved ones. Max must decide if life is still worth living. #SEAsianPit #Q #A #Spec #F #LF

In the background, spanning all four images, is commissioned art of post-reincarnation Mac in ancient robes, reaching for a reflection of his pre-reincarnation self in modern-day clothes. Paper falls around them, and a red ribbon swirls behind them. The text in this first image reads: Years of Red Tears, 100,000 words literary speculative novel. David Copperfield meets time travel C-dramas. Spontaneously reborn as an ancient noble, MAX wishes for all the wealth and love he never had despite high familial expectations and a curse to kill others with his affection. He'll do anything for his ideal life, even if it means marrying a stranger and becoming the next foreign minister. But when death won't stop knocking, he must decide if life is still worth living without someone to live for. Otherwise, the familiar yearning for death may be his greatest calling.

Reverse FRIEREN x DUNGEON MESHI x international monster myths Mal doesn’t understand how she became the world’s only immortal human, but that won’t stop her and her bookworm elf companion from slaying every mythical beast until they’ve unlocked the secret to ending immortality. #WIPPIT #WIP #A #F

This is a graphic with pink clouds and a pink-purple sky. In the center is a full moon shining over a Europe-style castle that appears to be floating on mist above blue-tinted mountains. In the air are small birds and a flying female deity in East Asian robes. She’s pointing towards the castle and a black silhouette of an elf walking with a caped human. Near them is text that reads, ‘Journey WIP.’ In the foreground are two elaborate mirrors: one featuring the characters from the anime Delicious in Dungeon, and the other featuring Frieren characters.

After 40 years without a vision of his angel, artist Peter wonders whether it’s worth carrying on living. But his “angel” is Ro, a human trying to use the visions to plead for resources in their ravaged future. Can this depressed, Twinkie-loving eccentric get the message? #questpit #Q #LF #S #D

Yellow text on the right reads: Everywhen (all-caps). Beneath is a bulleted list: Literary + speculative, voice-driven prose, multi-POV, dual timeline, queer, southern context, 95K words. On the left is a photo of art by Eddie Owens Martin who provided inspiration for the novel described. The artwork shows an abstract vertical landscape with two green hills and a yellow sun in a deep blue sky. Bisecting the green hills are a series of triangles or upside-down Vs in red and blue.
