We're having so much fun reading through your pitches! Just a small reminder to trade sample chapters (or whatever length you're comfortable with) to ensure you're a good working match. Not everyone is meant to be your CP or beta, and THAT'S OKAY!

My new #wip Sins of Thunder Road will be ready for Alpha on June 1st. #A #R #Queer #ABCPit #CampRevPit #ContentTW Happy to explain more via chat. But it’s a queer dark romance between a devil and a merperson featuring marriage of convenience, s work, the mafia and obsession.

I could be convinced to find alpha readers for my currently untitled #YA #CF #R Calliope is a demon hunter who wakes up one day to find her short term memories are broken. Orion is a reaper tasked with retriving the soul of an angel who escaped proper death and is now hiding in Calli's body. #ABCPit

A photo of the Orion constellation, a close up of a hand holding up a crown, the tarot card Death, a hand + arm that slowly turns to black smoke, hands that are completely covered in black and sparking, an eye where the eyeball is black and the iris is white, and a photo of Curran Walters.

Hey all you crazy #CampRevPit people, I'm looking for potential critique partners, alpha and beta readers for my horror comedy novel (even just a chapter or two). I've included the brief rundown in the image below. Let me know if this nonsense is your kinda jam. #A #H #WIP #ABCPit

IT Can't Happen Here	

As children, Ellis Bolling and his friends defeated a malicious entity from the beginning of time that terrorized their tiny New England town of West Windham.

Twenty-two years later, this unspeakable horror has somehow returned and is… running for mayor? Now, 35-year-old Ellis and his aging millennial friends must reconvene to figure out not only how to defeat it again, but why the town seems to be fine with knowingly electing an evil monster that preys on children.

A mash-up of Sinclair Lewis’ 1935 anti-fascist novel It Can’t Happen Here and Stephen King’s 1986 horror classic IT – the obviously titled IT Can’t Happen Here is a political horror comedy that takes the subtle art of satire and drowns it in a storm drain.

I'm looking for critique partners for my contemporary British folk horror story - currently in the very early stages of drafting. If this sounds like your kind of thing, please reach out. #A #H #WIP #ABCPit

#shoutout to my new #crpshrikes cabin buddies!! you guys have been awesome during #camprevpit this year and I’m glad to have met you and your stories ♡

Revise & Resub@reviseresub.bsky.social · 4mo ago

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. 👏

On a grassy green hill beneath a starry night sky, the caterpillar nibbles on a tree while the mantis and the firefly work on their stories. The mantis lays in the grass writing in her journal with a fountain pen and her very tall stack of papers beside her. The firefly sits in the branches of the tree with a laptop. The firefly’s butt is glowing brightly so the mantis can see to write.

Sending lots of love and hugs to my fellow Sparkle Skunks on our last day of camp! 💕 #CampRevPit #CRPSparkleSkunks ✨🦨 bsky.app/profile/revi...

The interactions with camp prompts, as well as the swaps behind the scenes, have been nothing short of inspiring this year. The dedication of campers, in whatever capacity they are able, is the reason #CampRevPit is a success!

Good morning #CampRevPit 🧵 Much like real summer camp the last day is always the hardest. And today we are doing shout outs which makes me extra sad. Not only has this been one of the best experiences of my life, but it’s been really eye opening and just all around amazing.

🏕️ Hello campers, today is the last day of camp, and it's a BUSY one! You have prompts, pitches, and Q&As flying all over the place. Some of you will go back into your revisions cave to continue working. Some may be ready to march straight into the trenches. No matter your choice, we're behind you.
