Once upon a time, in the kingdom of Charmington, a free-spirited 12yo lived UNhappily ever after as queen. To break free, she unleashes dark magic to defy the BookOfFate AND her twin, the Fairy Godmother. But when fairytales fall apart, will the kingdom fall too? #DVpit #MG #F #ND

Choked by the restrictions of being queen, a free-spirited 12yo unleashes her magic to break free, defying the BookOfFate… and her twin, the Fairy Godmother. When fairytales fall apart, can the sisters-turned-enemies reunite before everyone lives UNhappily ever after? #preDV #MG #F #ND

To free-spirited 12yo Harriet, becoming queen is a horrible Happily Ever After. But if she unleashes her powers to break free of the BookOfFate, she’ll break the kingdom. Can she embrace her true self even if it means defying her twin sister/BFF, the Fairy Godmother?

In Charmington, the BookOfFate chooses Happy Endings… including making 12yo sisters Harriet & Virtuosa the Fairy Queen & Fairy Godmother. When Harriet rebels, fairytales turn upside down. Can she help find new Happy Endings, even if her sister fights for the old ones? #DVpit #MG #F #ND

👸🏻Harriet, free-spirited 12yo queen, hates strict happy endings
👸🏼Her rule-following twin enforces them as Fairy Godmother
When Harriet rebels, fairytales turn upside down. The twins race to fix them, but can they make up before everyone lives HORRIBLY Ever After? #DVpit #MG #F #ND

This GIF is perfect for THE OTHER FAIRY GODMOTHER, right down to the wand! Like OUAT, it mashes up fairytales & redefines Happily Ever After. And Harriet & Virtuosa pay a price in different ways. (Plus, you know how Rumple becomes Dark One? Wonder how THAT connects to Harriet… 👀) #DVparty #MG #F #ND

Check out the opening lines of THE OTHER FAIRY GODMOTHER! 👸🏻✨👸🏼
“Fizzing streaks of light ricocheted off the granite walls of Harriet and Virtuosa's bedroom. The culprit, as always, was Harriet. The Fairy bounced on her bed, brandishing her wand with exuberant abandon.”

Meet the main character of THE OTHER FAIRY GODMOTHER! Harriet, the Fairy Godmother’s sister, is a free-spirited 12yo destined to be queen. Her sharp tongue, big heart & penchant for magic aren’t suited for royal life, but she can’t defy the Book of Fate’s Happy Ending…or can she? #DVparty #MG #F #ND

It seems like 60K is the word count cut-off for a lot of agents repping upper MG fantasy nowadays. If my book is slightly longer than that (in the upper 60s) but I still made it as short as I could, do I still stand a chance querying, or will I be rejected by default? #AskDV #MG #F #ND
