After dying, Alexandra wakes up a month in the past in a redemption competition for resurrection. To win her life, she must relive and fix her worst choices over the past month. But history is being rewritten and one of the friends she died with might win first. #castpit

[Marissa Austyn✨Romance Author✨ @MarissaABooks]

I’d love to join in on #CastPit, but like Madison in The Book Crush, it’s impossible to figure out, lol.

No one feels quite right.

Thankfully, I know that MY best friend wouldn't be the one getting cast as my book boyfriend! 🙌 Madison isn't nearly as lucky! 🤪

[#CastPit @castpit4authors]

Just a warning about scammer who may like your post posing as literary agents or publishers during #CastPit.

@RowanBrightonB has written an excellent 10 point thread on the matter you can find at this link and also listed in the graphic attached. https://t.co/0MtmEtDD0d

[Rowan Brighton Brown @RowanBrightonB]

I saw more scams and shmagents participating in #QuestPit than any pitch event I've ever seen?!

I don't know what's up, but in preparation for #QueerPit and #PosterPit, here's my thread on vetting industry likes and submission safety 🧵

[sherlyn is seeking rep 🖤 @sherlynsvault]

BETTING ON YOU x HAPPY PLACE

Meet Lysandra Guerrera, a best-selling author based in Scotland.

DONT FORGET ME is a second chance, dark academia, romance novel with themes of hispanic rep, women’s fiction, and trauma. 🖤
