Collage-style promotional graphic for the novel Babel on Callisto. Four illustrated polaroid images show two men, Jack (blond) and Elias (dark-haired with glasses), in different scenes: wearing space suits, working together in a lab, leaning close in a quiet moment, and kissing. The background is pink and textured with scientific sketches and handwritten notes. A torn paper excerpt of prose is centered. Text on the images reads “Babel on Callisto,” “Now Querying,” “88K Sci-Fi Horromance,” and “@saraduranauthor.”

BETTER THAN THE MOVIES X PLAYING FOR KEEPS After her kiss-cam accident with The Jerk became viral, 17yo Jess thought she’d reached rock bottom. But to make things worse, she sets up a fake-dating scheme with him. No way she’ll get lower than that and catch feelings, right? RIGHT? #RC #YA #Cupit

A Vampire’s Lament 🖤🦇🥀 Book One in the Time and Time Again series. Benevolent vampire Ishmael’s carefully balanced life is disrupted when Edric awakens a love he thought lost centuries ago. #Cupit #PR #GR #LGBT #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #queerwriters

A gothic style original painting of a vampire dressed in black holding a man dressed in white linen in a stone corridor, surrounded by candle light and moonflowers.

A pitch card that reads benevolent vampire Ishmael’s carefully balanced life is shattered when Edric, the tutor of his adopted nine-year-old spirit medium son, awakens a love he thought lost centuries ago.

A tropes and themes page that reads: DUAL POV, love after grief, queer love and joy, soft gothic, sentient manor, soft fatherhood, ghosts, awkward vampire and sunshine human, Victorian era, queer normative setting, opera house and music, yearning soulmates, and happily ever after

A snippet page that reads in every world, in every time, I would choose you. You are the song of the stars, and the whisper among the trees. It has been you. It has always been you.

Olena cinches the purse shut, turning it over to study the intricate threads and beads of the outside. Black spiders with brown dots and dark green vines flow across the maroon fabric. Olena traces them like she imagines her mother did. Did she keep her bones in it too? Did she collect bones at all, or were Bone Breakers not supposed to store the dead so close?"

BENEATH THE WHISPERING COVE is a gothic coastal fantasy about a young woman’s quest to uncover a missing book of folktales and secure her research funding. The misty water-logged mystery of A STUDY IN DROWNING with the folkloric richness of A DARK AND DROWNING TIDE #questpit #YA #F

Locke Lamora X ODW To save her sick sister, visually-impaired thief Nefeli agrees to a treasure hunt for a lost relic. As her sight declines with each use of magic, she must outwit dragons, powerful magic, and—worst of all—politicians before her world goes dark for good. #questpit #Q #A #F

Black and white background of desert sand dunes with white script "The City of Dragon Glass by Taylor Leigh Agent Guide"

Background of black and white desert sand dunes

The Pitch

Nefeli's gift of sensing magical relics has made her a world-class thief, but tapping into her power comes with a cost: her vision. With every use of her magic, her degenerative eye disorder worsens. A few more heists and Nefeli fears she'll be left with vague shadows in the dark—something she's avoiding at all costs. What use is a thief who can't see what she's trying to steal? But when her sister Sadiya's fragile health crumbles, Nefeli must choose: her sight or her sister.

Against Sadiya's wishes, Nefeli agrees to a dangerous job posing as a noble at a political summit. If Nefeli can hunt down a long-hidden relic for a secretive influential family, she'll earn enough for her sister's treatment. The catch? The summit is crawling with dragons, scheming politicians, powerful magic users…and worst of all, Kadir, a former fling who knows Nefeli's not who she claims to be.

Nefeli only has a fortnight to find the missing relic before access to the palace closes for another century. If she's going to succeed, she must rely on Kadir's help, despite the risk of him blowing her cover at any moment. And with her vision tunneling in, completing the job will force Nefeli to confront her biggest fear: without her sight, who is she?

The Snippet

"I'm scared," she whispered. "I'm scared of the day I open my eyes and there's nothing left to see. It doesn't matter that there are aids or that so many people thrive without sight. I know that one day, my memories of what things look like will fade—and they will. Even now, I forget constellations that I used to be able to see. Like those constellations, all other images will fade into the darkness until I don't remember the details of a sunset, or the flash of Sadiya's smile. I will be trapped inside my head, smothered by the knowledge of just how much I've forgotten."

When 16-year-old Nia picks the wrong pocket, she unlocks a magical talent she didn’t know she had. Now she’s posing as an heiress, a con man’s gone missing, and Nia and her friends are on the run with a living doll, pursued by gangs, magehunters, and the governor herself. #QuestPit #W #F #LGBT #YA

A mood board of eight tiles and a centre square with lockpicking tools and ancient writing:
1. Always have an escape plan.
2. A swindler never lets herself feel like a fraud.
3. Don't look for the easy grab, look for the easy mark.
4. Never get involved with golems.

The pictures depict, clockwise from upper right:
A) A city of canals and towering footbridges. There are minarets and steeples and red-tiled roofs.
B) A market selling elaborate lanterns, all aglow.
C) A porcelain and gold hand, reaching upwards.
D) Two figures leaping across rooftops against the coming dawn.
E) A pocketwatch--or is it? Constellations and continents cover the front, the body of the watch engraved with runes. It's sitting on ancient parchment.
F) A wax stamp with removable chits that function as coins in a card game.
G) The lords of the city overlooking grand canals and issuing edicts. They are dressed in fine red robes and silks.
H) Assorted bones and shells used for divination and more.
