RESONANCE 📖 75,000 ⏳ Upmarket speculative with historical twist 🕰️ Time Travel through objects ✨ Atmospheric 🏰 ‘Rebecca’ vibes #QuestPit #S #A #Q #HF

Some stories about time travel, aren’t to change the past. Sometimes, it’s about falling in love with it. #QuestPit #Q #A #HF #S

Not every time travel story is about changing history. Some are about falling in love with it. RESONANCE is an adult upmarket speculative novel where forgotten objects preserve moments from the past—and one impossible man appears in every century. #ProfilePit #Q #F #H #A

She lives now. He lives then. RESONANCE is about a woman who can step into the past through objects—and the man she meets there who isn’t bound by time. For lovers of literary, atmospheric, slow-burn fiction where tension is emotional, not physical. #QuestPit #Q #A #S

She escaped monotony by falling in love. The only problem? Time will not allow it. RESONANCE — upmarket speculative about heartache, time distortion, and loving someone you are destined to lose. 🕰️ Time Travel 💔 Tragedy 🏰 English Manor 🎵 Lyrical Prose #PosterPit #Q #F #A

Aaaand on today’s round up of #amquerying, a new full request, as well as a new partial request now mean that after a month of querying we are at a comfortable 3 fulls and 3 partials! To say that I feel dropping my 1st manuscript to query RESONANCE was the right choice, is an UNDERSTATEMENT!
