My FMC wouldn't be caught dead on a dating app (she's trying to escape her walled city, not get 🔗), but if she had social media, this is what her Bluesky profile would look like. (Credit of images belong to their respective artists) #Mememay 15
#Mememay 15 If your Main Character was on a modern dating app, what would their bio say? No romance for your MC? No problem! Write their standard social media bio!

#ShoutOut to everyone who made #CampRevPit possible!! And a huge shoutout to my #CRPfireflies counselor @arumiwrites.bsky.social 💗 Love this community! 🫶 Let's keep the fun going and 🌠 our writing goals 😎
Good morning, Campers! 🏕️ #CampRevPit is coming to an end soon. We hope you had lots of fun, met new friends and put down some words! On the last day of camp, #ShoutOut a writer friend who's inspired you, helped you along your journey, or just been a great Camp buddy. 👏
🌟 My goals for my YA dystopian project: finish self-edits, find beta readers, and dive into querying later this year (inshaAllah). 🫣 Thank you, Arumi for being our awesome #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies counselor! 💗
Happy last day of #CampRevPit! I've had a great time being your counselor! Thank you for replying to my (sometimes silly) prompts.❤️ Today's #CRPfireflies prompt: What's the plan for your project once it's finished (and/or edited)? Querying? Self-pub? Unsure? (For more fun, check out #ABCPit next!)
If you need to go somewhere and not spend any money, please visit your local library. Library crawls are awesome. Every library is its own little world.
I don't want to spoil things, but for my FMC, every night feels like this 'cause she's forced to hunt demons 😫 #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies
Happy middle-of-the-week, #CRPfireflies! Let's talk tension - at what point in your novel is there a moment where things feel like they're about to explode, or your characters feel that "dark night of the soul" despair? 👀 #CampRevPit
AOT x SHATTER ME With demons prowling outside her walled city, a teen girl’s dreams of freedom would brand her a dissenter. When she finds a blinded, amnesiac demon slayer—who silences dissenters—she plans to use him to escape before he remembers who he is and kills her. #CRPfireflies #CampRevPit
Happy Monday, #CRPfireflies! Imagine that an agent sees your quote-tweet of this post, and you have one tweet to pitch your book to them. What do you share? This can be a pitch, an agent guide, a playlist, a banger line, or a combination. Don't forget to use our cabin hashtag! ✨ #CampRevPit
And now to raid... #CRPnessie Despite my MC's "job" of patrolling nightly for demons, she's more of a indoors person. Some of her skills/favorite things to do: 🧶🎨📖😴 #CRPCabinRaids #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies
Day 3 of camp! How is everyone doing? Prompt: Is your MC more of an "indoors" or an "outdoors" person? Do they have any special skills? Bonus: Comment on at least one of your fellow camper's posts and debate if your MC's would be friends or enemies 😅 #CRPnessie #CampRevPit
Now to raid #CRPSirens hehe... My FMC almost 🔪 the MMC thinking he's a demon. 👿 (In her defense, she's on demon-hunting patrol and he...shouldn't have been there 🫢) #CRPCabinRaids #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies
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
Time to raid #CRPSugarGliders :) I'd say I'm a mix of both. I start with a premise and characters, and have some sort of an outline, but I NEVER know the ending. If my draft goes off-script (which it always does), no problem! It's so much fun this way 😁 #CRPCabinRaids #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies
Welcome to #CampRevPit Day Three, #CRPSugarGliders 🩵 Today's prompt: Are you a pantser or plotter? Are there any particular strategies that have helped your outlining/drafting process?
Love this idea! Okay, here's mine: Story: 🧕🏼⚔️👿⌛⛓️🤐🪽🛡️⚖️ MC: 😒😕🤨😠😡😰😣😇 #CampRevPit #CRPfireflies
Congratulations on making it to Day 3 of #CampRevPit, #CRPfireflies! For a fun prompt today: describe your story with emojis! (Bonus: Also do this for your main character's arc) Here's mine: Story: 😱🎱🌲🐔😡🥺🔥☺️ MC: 🫥🤔😡😳🤔😔😌🥰
I think my MC's greatest strength is her resilience. And her greatest weakness would be her taking things too seriously to the point she blames herself for all the things that go wrong. 🫠 She's dubbed "Serious" by her patrol partner, and it's also a wordplay on her name 😅 #CRPfireflies #CampRevPit
Happy Day 2 of #CampRevPit, #CRPfireflies! For today's cabin prompt, tell us a bit about your MC - what's their greatest strength? What's their greatest weakness? (Bonus question: How do these strengths/weaknesses affect their journey throughout your book?)
Hi #CRPfireflies 👋🏼 I'm working on a YA dystopia. What I love most about this genre is how dystopia opens our eyes to the world around us, that no matter how bleak things may look, there is always hope! A single candle (or a firefly 😉) in the darkness can start a revolution.🕯️
Happy Time Zone #CRPfireflies, and welcome to another year of #CampRevPit! I can't wait to get started! Our first icebreaker: quote this post with what you love most about your genre, and what you'll be working on during camp. Don't forget to use our hashtag! ( #CRPfireflies )
Hi #CampRevPit 👋🏼 I'm Marufa, and I write SFF with 🧕🏼 MCs. My current WIP is a YA dystopian reminiscent of the 2010s era (is this genre back?? 👀 or has it never left? 😜). Super excited to be here and meet more writer friends!!
Good morning, Campers! 🏕️ Let's kick off #CampRevPit with some introductions! Use #CampKickoff to tell us a bit about yourself and what you're working on. Pitch it in any way, shape, or form.
