Do literary agents still find authors on here? Because if soooo, hello 👀 This is my #PitchMe. I wrote Adult and YA Fantasy with Romantic themes. I’m currently querying a Zutara redemption MS with a unique magic system, love triangle game with a twist, and forgotten memories. Think Zelda X ATLA

Iyla really went from “I must hide my water magic to stay alive” to “Everyone will drown, and it will be at my hands.”

Character development 10/10

A man in a villa swimming pool at night. A note saying 'I know what you did'.  Partial photo of a dead woman floating in water. Mrs Danvers type silhouette parting fine, lace curtains. 
Other photos: a man standing at a desk, hanging his head; a couple kissing; a man carrying a woman's limp body in his arms; a woman gazing up at a man; a woman with her hands in front of her as if warding someone off; a woman in a party dress running up a staircase. Last few photos: a woman screaming, her head thrown back; a smashed wine glass; a couple embracing, the woman tearful.

Comp Titles: Midnight Bargain, A Song to Drown Rivers, The Jasmine Throne

Pitch: When Syrala learns the queen severed her subjects’ souls to gain power, she must outwit the queen to restore her own soul and subvert the dynasty, even if it means betraying her husband, the prince she’s learning to love.

Pitch: When Syrala learns the queen severed her subjects’ souls to gain power, she must outwit the queen to restore her own soul and subvert the dynasty, even if it means betraying her husband, the prince she’s learning to love.

When emptiness gnawed, Syrala painted. Her grandmother taught her: Seek solitude and focus on your art. Allow space for emptiness, and listen. It will help. For now.

Weeks of palace banquets, hunts, counterfeit smiles, and saccharine small talk would culminate tonight in the Selection. The queen had ordered the candidates to prepare: to meditate on the teachings of the Goddess Viera. The others had filed into the prayer hall in a public demonstration of obedience. But court activities and judgement had worn at Syrala until she was as parched as clay earth before the seasonal Rains. At the oppressive thought of another hour with preening candidates, the emptiness threatened to consume her. She yanked off her palace silks, threw on a simple cotton blouse and skirt, snatched up her painting bag, and bolted out into the unforgiving afternoon sun, and into the water gardens.

FOREVER IS A VERY LONG TIME
The Pitch
When Gwen was a girl called Wendy Darling, she met someone who promised her freedom and love, and all it cost her was her humanity and everyone she ever loved. A century later, she’s trying to claw some of it back thanks to a 15yo named Mona, who’s awakened a long lost sense of family.
When Capt Hook was a girl called Rosie, she met someone who promised her adventure, and all it cost her was her family and sense of security. After twenty years of fighting monsters shaped like children, this pirate captain is running out of steam, until her long-time nemesis gives her an ultimatum she can’t refuse.
Forced to work together, the cranky immortal and smug pirate will have to put aside their animosity and work together to save a family neither knew they needed. Along the way, they might find the love of a lifetime…if they don’t kill each other first.

FOREVER IS A VERY LONG TIME
Excerpt
‘All children, except one, grow up.’ That is how the classic line goes. 
When I was nineteen-years-old, however, I learned the tragic lesson that that wasn’t always the case.
Disease ruthlessly ravages innocent lives, while famine mercilessly snatches away their dreams. Violence lurks within the depths of strangers' hearts or, more tragically, a family member’s. And let us not forget the sheer cruelty of random happenstance, which has regularly inflicted its unspeakable horrors upon them. Throughout the annals of time, no demographic has endured more anguish and torment than those innocents who never had the chance to experience the complexities of growing up. 
And amidst this unfathomable sorrow, for longer than our history can even dare to measure, there has existed the enigma of Pan, the taker of children…my tormentor…
