Hello again, Good Readers. I just wanted to let you guys know that at the beginning of the week, we handed over the manuscript for The Cold Peace over to an outside editor, who is presently looking over it. Me and Wrave will soon be starting work on the second volume. I apologise if the process is feeling a bit protracted, but we were stalled for about a month and a half when my computer failed, and I had to replace the whole thing, which was a bit of a financial and technical ordeal. That’s sorted now, so I expect the next volumes will proceed more smoothly.

Best regards, Henry.

The New Humans will be going on a hiatus of new material for a while. The chapters you have seen so far have been first drafts, and we’ve reached a point where the final sections would rely on material that is already planned to be changed. We’re currently working on revising and editing the earlier material to reflect our evolving vision for the story. Progress is going well, and the new material will be available in some format reasonably soon.

Best wishes, as always, thank you for reading.

–Henry and William.

Heads up, Good Readers, today me and William have launched a new side project, a vampire story we’re calling Wise Blood. For now, it’s being hosted on Royal Road, but down the line, we may be giving it its own site. Until then, would love to hear all your thoughts on it.

So, some of you attentive followers might’ve noticed a drought of chapters during the month of August. There’s a few reasons for that. One, I and my editor have both been dealing with some hassles. Two, I’ve been having issues with energy and motivation. Writer’s block stuff. Something that’s helped with that, though, is working on a side-project, namely a probably three part fantasy/horror novella I’m tentatively calling Wise Blood, which will probably be posted to Royal Road or somewhere once we’ve got the next chapter of The Utopians out the door. It’s unrelated to The New Humans but think of it as a fill in arc. A fill in arc released alongside the next regular installment. It makes sense if you don’t think about it.

Thank you for the understanding, I promise to get back on track as soon as possible.

We (the author and editor of New Humans) are proud to announce we’ve appeared on the podcast Handsome Voices are Never Wrong.
