Fate’s Crucible: An Abridged History and Future Plans

It seems that a surprise holiday gift was given to us in the form of a Tik Tok post that at the time of this post has more than 183 thousand views and 16 thousand likes. Personal disclosure: I am old and don’t know if that’s any good.

The upshot is that we have sold many books from that and I hope that means people will be happy with our work. We are very appreciative that you are at least giving us a chance to entertain you.


Here’s some things you might want to know.


This was an idea that started back in September of 2010. Thanks to the power of the internet, we were already two friends who’d been sharing stories with each other, brainstorming new ideas and offering suggestions and edits on work.


And then… one of us asked: “What if we worked together on a book?”


Six years later “Beyond the Burning Sea” appeared after lots of writing, re-writing, editing, etc. 


We had enough material to shorten the cook time for “Between the Darkness & Dust” which came out two years later in 2018.


A lot has happened in the six years after that second book. Real life has gotten in the way of things, but we’ve still been working. The third book of Fate’s Crucible is tentatively titled “Beneath the Torn Sky” and is, in the best possible terms, in progress. 


Will it take another six years? No. You’ve certainly lit a fire under our collective backsides. We will be working harder and faster, but we won’t release anything we don’t feel meets our own internal standards. We will, however, try to post more here and our social media accounts for old and new fans alike. So keep an eye out.


The past does not dictate the future, which remains unwritten today… but tomorrow always comes sooner than you think.
