Georgia woke up covered in her gf’s blood in the house they were robbing. Now she + her friends must return & steal the haunted painting they left behind for their pushy boss.
Problem: is the painting or Georgia more dangerous?

New pinned tweet because I’m annoying 🤍
Hi I’m Sophia and I write YA Horror! Right now I’m revising my ghost heist book with hopes to query in the summer and outlining a retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice that has a forest that is also a corpse and lots of body horror!
one thing about me is that if you ask me for a book rec it will always be she gets the girl. contemporary? she gets the girl. sapphic? she gets the girl. college ya? she gets the girl. fantasy? no you’re reading she gets the girl
I just turned in agent revisions for my YA horror about art thieves, ghost hunters, and grief, and I couldn’t be prouder of how far this book has come. Maybe soon I’ll be able to share art and a sub journey, but for now enjoy the plant I bought myself as a reward + a snippet 🤍
Hi everyone! I just turned in my AMM ghost heist revisions and I’m planning to start querying (!!!) later this summer so if anyone wants to beta read my DEAD AND THE DARK x SIX OF CROWS book ft. one (1) very haunted painting let me know!
books where the main character is undergoing an uncontrollable transformation and it’s slowly becoming more apparent that something is deeply wrong with them >>> PLEASE I NEED MORE OF THEM

@RatkaLynx
i don’t care that he didn’t like it, i care that he’s classifying it as YA when it’s 100% adult fiction presumably because the author is a woman of colour please be serious
a year ago today i started drafting my sapphic ya horror about ghost hunters, art heists, and haunted paintings in preparation for submitting it to amm and i’m so proud of how far it’s come and where it’s yet to go 🤍
sorry but this character art of my totally not possessed ghost hunter/art thief mc makes me unhinged so i’m making you all put your eyes on it again

this is exactly what i’m talking about. people in the replies are saying he didn’t read the book—he did. his definition of adult fantasy just didn’t include woc-authored books.

day 1
hello! i’m sophia and i write generally spooky fiction in all genres. this is my first time going for author mentor match and i’m submitting my YA sapphic horror book ft. ghost hunters and a heist!
My agent offered on my very first day of university and when I asked for three weeks to nudge instead of two, she suggested that I take four… this is Not It
This was published in Writer’s Digest today but this is bad (and honestly 🚩) advice. You have the right to take your time (standard is 2 weeks), to make a careful, informed decision, to contact the other agents considering your MS so you can find the BEST fit, the RIGHT fit.

If you like…
- Haunted childhood homes
- Estranged siblings
- College-set YA
- Sapphic academic rivals to lovers
- Oh no we summoned the wrong ghost
I will be screaming about it a lot in the next few weeks!!
also!! i wanted to take a moment to talk about how not getting in means nothing. i didn’t get into pitch wars after a full request. but if i’d been picked i never would have written the book that got me into amm! (i wrote it in 22 days during december like a crazy person) 1/2
writing 50k during nanowrimo: mid, bland, unappealing
randomly abandoning your wip and drafting 50k of a new book over 20 days in december: amazing, groundbreaking, never been done before

3 ghost hunters must steal a painting from the house where their leader was killed before their boss sells them out—but something followed them home the night she died, and it will do anything to stop them from going back.

Today was my first pitch event + the first time putting ghost heist out into the world since AMM and I am so emo right now. Thank you everyone for the support!! So excited to launch this book into the trenches very soon 👀
