I am SO excited to welcome @drenderturmaud.bsky.social to my team of authors. Her picture books are so powerful and inspiring and I can’t wait to champion them to editors. Her stories are going to impact so many young readers ❤️

We also would love to take a moment to remind everyone, no matter the outcome of today— we wanted to bring the #writingcommunity together and we hope we succeeded in that. You matter. Your story matters. You are good enough ❤️

We are so so thankful to everyone who participated today- agents, authors, editors ❤️ the love and cheer we saw today reminded us of how amazing the #writingcommunity truly is

As I wrap up #cheerpit soon here @cheerpitx.bsky.social I could’ve never imagined so many writers and industry professionals would participate in my silly little idea to spread positivity & holiday cheer. The creativity and love I’ve seen today has inspired and amazed me. Thank you so much!

IT X The Riverman: Max wrestles w/ an eldritch horror and ghosts like Scrooge did while trying to ID this girl found in 2 identical photos taken years apart, one found in a home owned by the local legend: a serial killer cult leader, the other taken by a camera trap miles away. #YA #P #T #cheerpit

@cheerpitx.bsky.social Tai’s terrified of their new crewmate. Humans are violent pack hunters! And this one's irritating! So why can’t Tai stop thinking about her? Our duo's favorite holidays: the Equinox Festival (despite the ghosts) and Halloween (because ghosts.) #CheerPit #A #SFF #R #lgbtq

Angela and Starr just met and they're already bitter rivals in a sweet Christmas bake-off. Angela's reputation and Starr's business are on the line, yet only one can win the competition. What they didn't bet on was losing their hearts instead. #cheerpit #a #r

Happy #CheerPit, everyone! I hope you all had as much fun as I did! I was so nervous that I wouldn't be able to come up with anything clever, but it was an absolute blast coming up with fun holiday themed pitches! What a great idea. Hoping to see this one again next year!

HALLMARK by Kevin Smith. Framed as a mix tape & set in a 90s ski town, two teens from rival high schools fall in love amid their friends’ shenanigans all while working to fulfill their dreams: he as a writer, she as an Olympic skier. Male fat positive. #YA #RC #cheerpit

Wow, #CheerPit was amazing. I so enjoyed reading all of the amazing pitches and meeting some lovely people all day. It was certainly the most fun I’ve had online in a long time. Thank you all and best of luck! - DK

THE INFINITE LIBRARY #cheerpit #w #sff There is a library that contains all the narrative in human history, and something is trying to destroy it. A group of agents, pulled from their own literary universes, discovers the plot - now what? Veronica loves It's A Wonderful Life and rum punch.

THE STARLIGHT PRINCE ✨two princes, two warring kingdoms, one shared destiny✨ ✨💙 queer MMCs ✨💙 found family ✨💙 folklore inspired ✨💙 forbidden love ✨💙 lies and betrayal #CheerPit #W #F #R

The sun set. Slow darkness descended on this tiny corner of the world. Two souls suspended in mid-air over the river, stone and steel and wire holding them in place, halfway between a humble memorial and a parking lot, against sacred nature and mundane utility. #Q #A #CheerPit Stage 6 Does Not Exist

THE GOOD GIRL CHECKLIST Haunted by looking like the mother who abandoned her, a young woman reconstructs herself like one of her father's collector dolls, which lands her in a Middle Eastern charm farm surrounded by mirrors. MAID x CATCH ME IF YOU CAN x BLACK SWAN x EDUCATED #cheerpit #q #me #a

A coming-of-rage with mystery, betrayal, and heartbreak tossed with clandestine fantasy courts and rebellions. #CheerPit #YA #NA #F #Q

2 people who would be on Santa's naughty list shouldn't be together. One is a rich recluse, the other, a slum-dwelling rebel. When their paths cross, despite their flaws, they realise falling for the enemy isn't the worst thing that can happen to them. #CheerPit #R #F #A #Q

PRINCESS DIARIES x DIAL A FOR AUNTIES It’s dire for Princess Sam at the Annual Holiday Ball. She has to deal with her ridiculous ex while trying to trap her current-fiance redhanded with his girlfriend, and a heritage artifact gets stolen from the palace. #AG #OS #A #WF #commercial #CheerPit

Last hour of #cheerpit! You got this #writingcommunity ❤️

Vikings X Derry Girls = VIKING, NUN, MURDER, CHICKEN Viking Tyr wants fame and riches but finds love and vengeance with Beatrice, a fake nun hiding a royal secret. Tyr's favourite memory: listening to his father tell stories of Christian Saints by the Yule Log #CheerPit #Q #A #R #HF

My last hurrah! NINTH HOUSE X THE MIDNIGHT CLUB 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. Fav holiday song: White Winter Hymnal by Fleet Foxes #Q #A #F #H #CheerPit

THE GREAT x LE MORT D'ARTHUR Her father was killed, her mother was taken, and she was sent to a nunnery. Now, the wizard responsible is her only hope for security in the court of King Arthur. It's too bad they have so much in common. 🎄Christmastide is for partying. #W #A #HF #cheerpit

Arcane x Don’t let the forest in Bound by blood and destiny, two brothers fight to protect the humans from the horrors of Oblivion. But when Rayn vanishes, Jayde uncovers a shocking truth about the Night Order and the fate of his lost sibling. #ya #cheerpit #sff #q #agentguide
