Thank you for all the gifts you give your fans. Thank you for taking the time and effort to explain something you don’t have any obligation to give any reason or explanation for. Thank you for continuing to write and produce books that are so enjoyable. Thank you for all that you do for your fans. There are many people who excel at something, but are unwilling to help other’s do the same, and keep their process and skills a jealously guarded secret! Your often demonstrated readiness to aid others in your area of expertise, showcases your true generosity of spirit! I am not an author, or even a budding author (I attempted that years ago and found that is not something I am good at!), but I can still appreciate your inclination to share your knowledge and considerable skills. For example, your workshop on world-building. I think your generosity to your fans is unparalleled, and I am appreciative of how willing you are to help other authors (or budding authors) by sharing your expertise.
It isn’t a wonder that you do have such a large and loyal fan base! You earn it, with your amazing books, your accessibility to your fans, your hard work, and simply by being who you two are. You maintain your professionalism and integrity, while constantly looking our for and considering the feelings of your fans. Again, this wasn’t ideal, as we expected to have more time, but we have to do the best we can. We are leaving comments open so you can vent. But we promised you a book and we have to do our best to deliver. We get the biggest kick out of watching the comment threads spin wild. We had so much fun stuff planned, like the reveal of why the kids hate Ascanio and meeting with Ghastek and Rowena, and so on, and we were very excited to bring it to you. We know it sucks, so we will continue to post snippets as we go along, but they might not be in any chronological order. This doesn’t mean we won’t post any more Ryder, just that it won’t be every week scene by scene. Unfortunately, we have to do 2K a day or there won’t be a Ryder release in January. We know this was a bright spot for many of you. Especially not with the promo schedule for Emerald Blaze. We have to pick up the pace to finish the first draft by the end of August, so we can immediately shift gears onto Hidden Legacy. Because of this, we are writing at half speed. We’ve been writing Ryder very carefully, trying to minimize the amount of editing we will have to do, so the story in the book wouldn’t be very different from the story posted online. If we don’t do this, we will have to move Catalina’s third book, and it’s highly likely it won’t come out in 2021. Our publisher is putting pressure on us to produce the first third of Hidden Legacy 3 by mid-October, so they can begin the process.
If you lose your place in line, the book doesn’t come out. Because of this, our deadlines became extremely tight. COVID and other, previously existing problems have forced some of them to close, and others are experiencing materials and labor shortages. The state of publishing is in flux, because the number of printers has shrunk. We are very sorry, but Ryder has to stop. Standard disclaimer: we do not receive any proceeds from the sale of this merchandise and we make no guarantees about its quality.
