The Next Step

 Dear insatiable readers,

You all have come a long way with us. Nearly three years ago, Sam and I finally took the next step to a lifelong dream of ours and began the process of querying for agents. along the way we learned a great many things about the publishing industry. Most of all, as over 100 rejections stated, "Publishing is a subjective business." 

It is with a heavy heart that we are announcing that we have decided to end our journey in trying to get Frostfire traditionally published.

And with much excitement, we are ready to announce that we are officially working on self publishing Frostfire.

There is a lot that goes into self publishing. Aside from needing to do your own marketing and maintaining an Internet presence, there's the costly factor of getting an editor. We are also very pleased to announce that we have found an editor to partner with to get Frostfire in tip top shape for your reading pleasure. That is probably going to happen towards the end of this year. To everyone who has beta read for us over the years, you have our immense gratitude. Frostfire would not be what it is today without your support, and we are very eager to get started on book two.

Additionally, we are going to be opening up a newsletter soon! This will be an excellent way for you to keep up to date on what's going on with us and where we are at stage wise on the road to publishing. 

A lot of people who are already up to date on the situation keep asking us when exactly the book is coming out. Unfortunately, it is still too early to have an exact date, but you can bet your beautiful butts that it will probably be Winter/Spring 2021. Hopefully we will have a more exactly launch date in mind by January and will keep you all abreast of the situation!

Until next time, dear readers!

-Lauren & Sam
