I’m writing a story about four friends with supernatural powers that have to save their society of supernaturals from a organization called Humanity Pure- a group that is trying to “cleanse” humanity of these beings.
Meet the characters:
Max, an African American genderfluid appearance shifter with a tendency to really not give a fuck.
Raven, an aromantic asexual punk girl who is definitely the Mom™ of the group. Also happens to have invisibility powers
Felix, a cocky, pansexual Latino, who once accidentally time traveled to ancient Egypt and puked on Cleopatra.
Basil, a shy gay half German, half Italian boy living in America during World War 2, who also somehow is immune to fire and to some level control it (read: not really at all)

[Section of story under the cut]
A loud crack startled him, making him gasp and slam his head into the bark of the tree. Whimpering quietly, he tried to blend into the tree, using the dark green blanket to cover his body. He peeked down below him to see a boy, maybe a year older than him looking around. The teen was wearing weird clothing, a loose baggy shirt with a picture of what looked like William Shakespeare, but with rainbow colored glasses and words that said “Shakequeer” underneath. His trousers were black, and clung to his legs. One of the knees was ripped.
The boy, however, was gorgeous. He had golden-blonde hair that was a curly mess on top of his head, soft, caramel skin and bright hazel eyes. He looked concerned as he scanned the surrounding area, searching for something. The most startling this about him, though, was the fact that he appeared out of nowhere. He leaned a little closer to get a better look, cocking his head curiously. Basil was so focused on the stranger that he didn’t even notice his book had fallen until it hit the ground with a loud thump. Both boys startled, the Latino looking up and the Italian toppling out of the tree.
He closed his eyes tightly, bracing himself for a harsh impact when suddenly strong arms were around him and he landed on a soft body with an oof.
He looked down at the boy with wide eyes, looking scared out of his mind. The other just smiled crookedly though, and gently tucked a few strands of hair behind his ear.
“Hey there,” he greeted, amused. “As much as I’d love to stay like this for a while longer, I really can’t breathe. Mind getting off?”
Soooooo I’m writing a book about two time travelling gay boys, plus a genderfluid and a aro/ace girl. I need two things:
#1: a beta; someone who can read through my story and give me feedback on a regular basis
#2: opinions on which cover i should use for NaNoWriMo and other places.
Even if you don’t want to vote or beta, reblogging would help a lot to get the word out.
More info under the cut.
Summery of my book:
Basil Corvi is an ordinary Italian immigrant living in the Great Depression with a dark secret.
Felix Foster is a extraordinary Latino kid genius with a time-traveling wrist watch.
When Felix accidentally time jumps Basil and their two other friends, Max and Raven to the time of the Black Plague, the four go on a crazy adventure to get the watch back from the Pharaoh of Egypt before they die they start to be erased from existence.
If you’re interested in beta-ing or voting on the cover, reblog this post and drop me an ask! (For voting, all you have to do is say “cover #_”) Also, if there’s any artists who are interested in drawing my characters, just tell me and I’ll give you a thorough description, and in “payment” I’ll (try) to write you a drabble.
On June 6th I'm participating in the inaugural Ride for the Living. We will be bike riding 50 miles from Auschwitz-Birkenau to the JCC to show that Jewish life in Poland wasn’t destroyed. We will ride from the ashes of the concentration camps to the vibrant heart of Jewish life thriving at JCC Krakow.
Please consider supporting my fundraising efforts. A donation of $36 would be amazing and will support programming for over 100 Holocaust survivors in our community! Any donation of $100 or more supports special holiday programming or weekly Shabbat dinners, and you’ll become an Overseas Member of the JCC!
