the pitch A woman from a line of madness finally proves she was never broken-the bog that has haunted her family for generations answers when she feeds it, crowning her in power. But when its hunger takes the woman she loves, she becomes something monstrous, lost to grief and still water. Meanwhile, her lover's twin brother journeys toward the horror with a worn-out knight-two men deemed expendable by a kingdom at war, finding each other on throad. What waits at the end will demand they all learn the same truth: the only way to survive is to let go. What Becomes of Still Waters Frankie Joy

the characters Lilijana and Rue Lilijana comes from a line of madness, drawn to the bog as her grandmother before her. Rue has stood by Lilijana their whole childhood. It was no surprise when Rue kissed Lilijana at the bog's edge years ago. Their love was born from loyalty and grief, and now must survive the same. Lukas and Sandro Lukas, burnt and blind in one eye, was deemed unfit for war. Sandro was a knight for the kingdom suddenly found expendable. Their love isn't fated-its consequence, earned mile by mile. What Becomes of Still Waters Frankie Joy

the opening The ground squished, thick mud slipping between Lilijana's toes. A deceiving patch of moss floated to her left. She pivoted to the right, settling on firm earth. Reeds bowed, bent by a warm gust. It carried the distinct smell of Mrkava's summers: ripening rye, wild strawberries, junipers, and decay. The near-intoxicating sweetness drifted near the far edge of the village, where the pine grew small and twisted. The bog lay there, only moss and water-so her mother often reminded. But it kept what it consumed. Generations ago her family's home was settled there, back when the bog was nothing more than a puddle. Now those weathered boards were buried deep in its soil. Her great aunt, too: wandered out on a waxing moon and never returned. She wasn't the only one in the matrilineal line to give to the bog. The first was a stillborn daughter.

WHAT BECOMES OF STILL WATERS

Two women, two men, and the bog at the edge of the village. Dual POV with f/f and m/m romantic arcs.

How much will Lilijana feed her madness? How long can Rue stand by her? Can Lukas and Sandro find purpose in one another?

Tropes & comps: Irish folklore, she's the monster, generational trauma, only one grave. The yearning in the time of plague found in Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell, Catholicism vs the Supernatural in The Possession of Alba Díaz by Isabel Cañas, the medieval horror of Between Two fires by Christopher Buehlman, the death-crossed lovers of Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers.

The yearning in the time of plague found in Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell, Catholicism vs the Supernatural in The Possession of Alba Díaz by Isabel Cañas, the medieval horror of Between Two fires by Christopher Buehlman, the death-crossed lovers of Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers.

The pitch: When Ciarán Murtagh hears the cry of his family’s banshee for the first time in a decade, he knows one of his own is fated to die. Yet, his family doesn’t believe his warnings, and why would they? The last time Ciarán heard the banshee, he didn’t tell a soul until after his younger cousin tragically died under his watch. He’s been the family pariah ever since. Desperate for redemption, Ciarán hunts down the banshee in search of answers. She’s equal parts frightening and alluring, and in his struggle to confront her, he inadvertently triggers the banshee’s memories. Memories of when she was a servant of his household, decades ago—a woman named Deirdre. In hopes of learning whose death she foretold, Ciarán tenuously agrees to help Deirdre remember who she was. They begin meeting by moonlight, and with every clandestine encounter, his macabre desire for Deirdre grows. When the devastating bubonic plague befalls the Murtagh household, and Deirdre’s memories reveal a dark scandal in the family’s history, Ciarán must decide whether to stay by his family’s side in their final hours or embrace the seduction of the death-bringer. But fate demands more than death, and Deirdre is no longer the only ghost cursed to haunt Clan Murtagh forever.

HAMNET x NOSFERATU

🖤 The black sheep of a powerful 14th-century Irish family falls in love with the banshee who’s haunted his household for generations—but as the bubonic plague closes in, he must choose between the living and the dead.

Image of a tall ship on the ocean with the title Storm Struck and the following text: A disgraced noble takes to the high seas to rescue a princess and win her hand in marriage, but falls in love with his surly sea captain instead.

The Pitch: Varos Belaro spent his whole life training for a dueling tournament he just lost - along with all his friends, his good name, and his career prospects. However, when he finds out that the kingdom’s princess has been kidnapped by an infamous pirate and the reward for saving her is her hand in marriage, he sees a chance at redemption. With the title of prince of the realm on the line, his family quickly strikes a contract with the fastest ship on the seas, and Varos takes off on an adventure to rescue the princess and his future. Kellan is the captain of the ship and a Stormrunner, a once-in-a-generation talent that can harness the power of storms for wind magic. After he saves Varos in a tempest, they collide in a steamy tryst, and Varos comes up with a plan to extend their fun by forming a gentleman’s agreement until they find the princess. But when the rival who ruined Varos’s life emerges with his own Stormrunner on the only other ship that can beat them, Varos and Kellan must race them to be the first to save the princess. Facing wild storms, duels, and pirate battles, Varos must choose between the life he’s always wanted and the love he never thought he’d have.

CHAPTER ONE The rain made it easier to rob his grave. My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night's whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us. Us. As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

Excerpt: A gaunt mouse snatched bread crumbs from my lunch tray. I did not have the heart to give her a name, afraid I might lose her, too. The lingering scent of mud and mildew hung in the air, a long-forgotten tomb. The bed’s cast-iron rods dug into my ribs through the thin mattress. I clenched my jaw to keep my teeth from chattering and pulled the threadbare blanket tighter around my body, hugging my knees to my chest. It did little against the chill creeping into my bones. The raging blizzard had transformed the courtyard into a churning white sea, rattling the broken window shutters hanging askew. I was not allowed visitors or to set foot outside. The faded floral pattern of the peeling wallpaper was my only reminder of life beyond these walls. The medications I was forced to swallow left a cotton taste in my mouth and a dull ache in my skull. At least no screams echoed through the halls today.

"An agent's guide to THE BOG PRINCE by Julianne M, a 99k word YA fantasy romance."

The pitch... Eighteen-year-old Everin Lockett’s dreams of returning home from ruthless Wyverith College are shattered when she manifests a forbidden necromancy magic that reanimates the bog body of her kingdom’s lost prince. If the college discovers the truth about her abilities, she will be conscripted into their brutal army, doomed never to see her family again. Desperate to guard her secret, Everin strikes a deal with the long-lost Prince Byrnan: if he helps keep her power hidden, she will help him solve his centuries-old murder. But when Byrnan’s quest for justice could be the very thing that endangers her last hope of going home, Everin will need to confront the true cost of falling for a lost prince with nothing left to lose—and a kingdom to reclaim.

Snippet... A fork of lightning split the rain-soaked sky in two, and the ground trembled with a deafening clap of thunder. But even after the rumbling faded, the bog still shuddered beneath me, swelling and quaking like a pair of lungs drawing their dying breath. I lurched away, my heart jolting against my throat as I scrambled back through the mud. Another crack of lightning. And in its wake, silhouetted against the flash of violet light— A single grasping hand, clawing its way out of the earth towards me.

In honour of #QuestPit and the upcoming #SmoochPit showcase, here's an updated #agentsguide for THE BOG PRINCE, my upper #YA #RF about a necromancer who reanimates the bog body of her kingdom's long-lost prince. 💀👑

Maybe some secrets are better left buried... 🖤 #agentguide #Q

Once Gwen was called Wendy. She was promised love. All she lost was her humanity.
Once Hook was called Rosie. She was promised adventure. All it cost was her family.
Together, maybe a cranky immortal & a smug pirate can find a thing they didn’t know was missing.

A movie poster, at the top is the title “Hell Is Work” and underneath it a tag line “The Devil is in the details” The background is red with a light red graph showing a plummeting arrow representing a failing business. In the foreground is a three pronged Devil’s pitchfork with a halo around the central tine. Sitting on the curved crook of the right tine, nonchalant, with one arm wrapped around the tine is a black silhouette of a man wearing a suit and tie. His legs dangle casually above a field of flame. On the curved crook of the left tine, staring at the other man, is a white figure of a man with wings spread, casually playing footsie with the other man. At the bottom is the words “A novel by Zed Prospero”
