Story Genius is one of my favorite writing books for a reason. Whenever I feel writers block approaching, it’s usually because something isn’t working in the story. #amwriting #indieauthor #writingtips #writingcommunity #blackauthors #writersky #Romancelandia

If you have ever emailed a writer to let them know you enjoyed something they wrote, you are among the noblest and best and most saintly in this entire world, and I hope you sleep really well tonight.

🙋🏾‍♀️What makes a story cozy?

I’ve been thinking about cozy fantasy and its rise along side the ever present cozy mystery genre. And as a romance writer, I have to wonder how do those cozy qualities translate to the romance genre?

Before male doctors inserted themselves into the birthing room, there were midwives helping women through the most dangerous time of their lives. In particular, black women known as granny midwives served their communities because they felt called to. Not because they wanted to make money.

I’m trying to be better about loglines for my stories. What do you think #Romancelandia?

Bea’s convinced she’s bad, and hides her sexuality in the pixelated boxes of TemptressB—it’s how she survived what came before. Until a suspicious subscriber, censorship-happy board member, and stupidly principled (utterly devastating) boss force her to be fully seen.

Image: faded background of library metal bookcases. A pink filter is atop growing from the bottom left corner. A blue pen is across the right part of the screen poised beside a scribbled heart. Text: Shamelessly Wanting. By Frankie Joy. An Agents Guide. Upmarket fiction with romantic arc (80k). Querying. Text banner at top: messy fmc, buttoned-up mmc, late stage dual pov, open-door, book banning b-plot Image: light pink background with a pink distortion in the corners. Scribbled blue loops separate two halves of the slide. Yellow highlighter is beneath the headers. Four book covers are on the right-hand side. Pitch: Beatrice Dorsey shelves books at the Meadow Park Library-and runs a spicy content site under the name Temptress. But that's none of her coworkers' business. Or her family's. Especially not Miles Noor, her steady and irritatingly attractive boss. The man who brought her burgers on the library floor and walked away from their almost-kiss with two words: "Not yet." A new subscriber surfaces, reminding her of what she's always known: "You were always bad;)" Someone from before has Found her. Within weeks, Bea's cousin has the photos, her best friend tires of her avoidance, and a board member is targeting "indecent" books. The exposure she's spent years hiding from is coming due. Bea arms herself with humor, lipgloss, and sour gummy bears. It works. Mostly. Until she's lying on the floor wondering who she is when she stops performing. Comps: The Wedding People Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine Funny, guarded heroine learning to let people in —and making mistakes along the way. Idea of You Centering of female desire. Fleabag Exploration of shame without moralizing. Image: light pink background with a pink distortion in the corners. Scribbled asterisks are in the right upper corner. Yellow highlighter is beneath the headers. Gummy bears are beside Bea and jalebi beside Miles. Bea Dorsey Gummy bear-fueled, anxious-avoidant, narrating her life in lipgloss. If she gets too close to others they might see the parts of her she shamefully hides. You'll want her happy ending anyway. "I hid truths from my own brain. Reality is what I say it is." Miles Noor Patient, principled, and permanently undone by the woman he’d sign disclosure paperwork for. He never forgets he's her boss-but the buttoned-up exterior becomes too suffocating to maintain. "I’m just here to unbutton your buttons, Miles.” Image: pink background dominated by text on an off-white square. An illustration is in the bottom right corner. Depiction of Miles Noor (black sweats and eating a burger) beside Bea Dorsey (blushing, cross legged in a yellow sweater and jeans). Scribbles of three blue hearts is beside Miles and a bee doodle is above Bea. Art by Croverfield. But she wandered too close to that overnight with Miles. Not the time hed walked away-when hed stayed. They'd eaten fries. If they ever talked things out-really talked-she'd tell him. That she'd cheated. Every time. Let him decide. That is...if being an online sex worker hadn't already ruled her out. But this time I'd be different. She hadn't deleted her profile. Hadn't returned since that message: naughty librarian. When you think about it, it doesn't sound so awful. I work in a library—I do naughty things. Just not at the library. She could do naughty things at the library. Not with her site-definitely grounds for termination. With Miles-naughty things. In the library. His office. The cataloging room. Against the books. Floor. Though, technically, doing naughty things with the boss was also grounds for termination. It was easy for her to forget. He was her boss.

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END × JUMANJI

When one of them is murdered at their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—& ball-busting puns—to solve the crime before they're all butchered like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign.

Poster-style graphic with a black background and heavy red blood splatter. Large distressed white and red text reads “DAD BODIES.” A dagger runs horizontally through the letters, and a 20-sided die showing low numbers appears on the right. Along the bottom are black silhouettes of heads with X-shaped eyes. Beneath, smaller text reads “ROLL FOR FUCKERY,” and at the bottom: “A co(s)mic horror novel by B. van Bodegom.”

First Graphic: An Oil Painting of a woman sprawled over a man lying on a chaise. Depiction of Romeo & Juliet. Book Title: My Sweet Unbecoming A Forbidden Gothic Romance Coming to agent inboxes September 2026 Second Graphic: An Oil Painting of a woman staring deeply into a canvas. The art on the canvas is a man in uniform standing as the muse. Comps and Pitch Jane Eyre The Viscount Who Loved Me The Phantom Of The Opera When a scandal exiles her to Lucerne, disgraced Olivia Rooney falls for the one man she’s forbidden to love—Théodore Chair-Beaumont, the brooding aristocrat sworn to matrimony with another. But beneath his restraint lies a wound that mirrors her own. And falling for him could not only repeat the tragedy that broke him once before. It could ruin her reputation, once and for all.

What we starve for is not the body, but the soul. Spirits, which I'm certain, have known each other for millennia—longing and finding one another, again and again against all odds. Nothing can come between what is immaterial. Even less so when it is destined A divine homecoming. He is the vessel of my existence. The missing half that completes me. There is no him without me. And without him, there is no me. - And how do I tell him I'd gladly crawl beneath his armor, inside his clothes and past his skin? Fight myself through sinews and bone, every ligament and essence that makes him him, and live on solely to keep his soul free of any pain? Caretaker of his soul for eternity. - A touch, as soft as a feather. The dull edges of fingernails. Deliberate and as exquisitely slow as molasses. I arch into these luxuries like a cat wanting for more. Hum at the whispery strokes as they comb through my scalp, down my hair, in pursuit of my jaw and finally my décolleté. I know it's him. Scent him like a vampire would sweet blood.
