It’s almost here! Where did the time go?
Join us for a live-streaming event on April 23, where we will answer questions about writing a novel, co-authorship, publishing, details about the world of the Passionate Pantheon, the trials and tribulations of working entirely remotely, and whatever other general random tangents that our brains drag us to (based on past experience)!
All this, plus you get to watch the very start of the writing process for the fifth novel in the Passionate Pantheon series!
When: Saturday, April 23, 2022, from 11 AM Pacific/2 PM Eastern/7 PM London time, for at least two hours (but knowing us, probably a lot longer, because we don’t know when to stop).
Where: Zoom. The link will be posted here when the time comes. Follow us on Facebook for more information!
What: You know that saying, “Everyone has a novel somewhere inside”? One of the most common questions we hear is “I’ve always wanted to write a novel, but how do you get started?” Another is, “I’ve always wanted to write with someone else, but how do you write together?”
Why: You can get your answers questioned…wait a minute, strike that, reverse it. (Although we’re always happy to have our answers questioned, if there’s folks with more expert knowledge in the livestream!) Plus people who attend will get a secret perk when the crowdfunder for the third novel, The Hallowed Covenant, goes live!
We’ll address both of those questions (though protip, you probably won’t start your novel(s) in quite the same way we started ours!), and talk publishing, writing, and the creative process. We co-author in quite an unusual way, so if the way we work sounds appealing, let us tell you all the mistakes we made so you don’t have to!
You’ll also be able to watch us begin a brand spanking new novel together! (Caveat: spanking not included.)
We plan to create a new, blank Google Docs file and start the fifth Passionate Pantheon novel right in front of you. It won’t just be us telling you how to start a novel; you’ll be able to see it happen!
The process itself—the conversations we have, the mechanics of how we write, the world-building, all of it will be on display for the whole world to see, warts and all. (Gulp!) You’ll see the dead ends, the changes, the moments when the plot or characterisation clicks—all the things you’ll probably experience during writing yourself, played out live in front of your eyes.
Sign up for the mailing list to be notified early about the hows and wheres. We will also post more information here as the event gets closer, so watch this space!

Can I ask questions?
Please do! We love questions, the quirkier the better!
Does it cost anything?
Nope, it’s totally free.
Who is invited?
Anyone over eighteen. These novels do contain erotic content, after all!
Do I need to be interested in science fiction erotica?
Nope. You’ll probably find something valuable even if you’re interested in some other genre.
Have you ever done this before?
Nope! We will be just as interested as you in how this goes. It may all crash and burn! Fun times.
Will you be repeating this sort of event in the future?
Who knows! No idea. Depends on how well this first one goes, so I guess we’ll see!
