Update from the depths of the literary void

Hello everyone!

Yes, we know it. We know that news from the front have been scarce in the last months and that some of you might have feared that we had fallen before the enemy. However, I can assure you that this is not the case, we are both alive and kicking.

In fact we have been very productive lately. As we informed you some time ago, we held a meeting in Paris. Yeah, something like a very secret reunion surrounded by some people that we then had to kill because they had heard our best kept secrets… Well, not really; but we did meet. During this week we managed to come up with several different things.

To begin with, we finished the first draft for The Forge of the Prophecy. Yes, you read it! The story is now written, we know how it begins and – most important – we know how it ends. After lots of plotting, planning and some crying, the story came together as a whole. Needless to say how proud we are. Soon enough we will start working on the final draft, we already have a lot of ideas of what needs to be included or changed. The wait is slowly coming to an end.

But that wasn’t the only thing we did in Paris, not by far. As we were there NaNoWriMo started. We had already planned a new series (yes, who wants to write a book when you can write a whole series?) and decided to use this opportunity to write the first two novels. We love the concept and we had really good ideas, and we are confident that you will like them as well when the time comes for you to know more about them. I also have some cool news from some of you: this new series will be written in English! We had a really fun NaNoWriMo kick up with some other writers.

I know you want the information about this new series, but you are still gonna have to wait a little bit, though we will be sharing more and more information regarding this series with you.

I hope this update is enough to prove that we haven’t disappeared into the abyss of literary doom and we will try to update you as often as possible. As usual, we are going to need “beta readers” for the new series, so if you are up to the task just let us know.

Cheers!
