AHHH!

AHHHHHHHHHH!
Everybody!
Dear readers.

So this is the last Thursday before school. Ben has been away since last week, and chapter 20 has been in the works since then, I think today I'll wrap it up and start 21. We are moving stupidly slow and we are sorry. Today I almost forgot it was even Thursday, I forgot posting day *face palm*. Luckily I whipped it up before it was no late. Here's the link.

Tid bit of Interesting Information!
So let's give you two different types of tid bit (reminds me of tim bit... mmmm tim bit #CanadianProbs)
First off, I shall have you all know that my writing partner and I are best friends, BUT when of at school we maybe contact each other two or three times. Nothing ever changes when we both come home through, and we buy each other Christmas presents. :) Hopefully this year there will be a bit more communication because of the blog. *fingers cross*

TAYA TID-BIT TIME!
Yes yes yes, We know that if you read this you probably don't care about our other pages as much... which you should because they are spectacular. BUT, by popular demand, here is an unknown fact about the warrior princess.
As you know, we do a lot of our writing down at a local coffee shop. We love all the employee's there, and they help us when we are creatively stuck. SO, to honour our friends brewing us coffee and deep frying us fritters we write their names into the story.
Ennadia = Dianne (mixed up letters)
Claire-Marie River = Cliare ... (gee we're creative)
Raymond = Andrew (Raymond is a middle name)

I'm  not sure if there is more, but If there our I will send you another list. :)
Take care, sorry about the craziness.
Hey Howdy Hey.
It's ~H

May The Bedbugs Never Bite

Hey guys!

This is Grace posting - not too late, but late enough (one minute and a half to 1am) after a long day of catching up with old friends, running errands, and basically doing what I've been doing a lot of - reconnecting.

This summer I've been on the road half of the time (yes two hours of commute for work eventually does add up), and visiting people have taken up a lot of time - albeit most beautifully and well spent time.

As it is, there is no art this week, nor likely will there be any next week, as I am away at camp. In two days, I would have been in, hmm let's see, one, two, three, four, five, six different cities or towns. Mmhmm! That said, many of these are pit stops. Mmhmm!

However, I have posted for you - first post on Dear Life. Check it out - one of raw thought and weariness, but goodness all rolled into one beautiful mess.

And now, to bed.

Goodnight world! May the bedbugs never bite.

more, More, MORE!

Our Loyal Readers.

WWMNS Productions is growing! As you can see we have the original piece still being updated every Thursday. Follow Taya and her crew as they try to escape the grasps of Akeldama, or if you are looking for something silly try "Bill the Russian & Other Tales" by our own Benjamin and his university friends. Interested in a blog a little more personable and based on non-fiction, try the newest upload of "Dear Life."

http://asweexperience.blogspot.ca/

"Dear Life" will be posted in when there are current emotions flowing through us, being love or anger or happiness. See what's going on more in our lives in a more creative field. I made this blog and posted the first piece. Yesterday (when I started this post) was a very interesting day, and this summer has helped the magnitude of interesting. August 21st is the anniversary of which my little teenage heart got the shit beat out of it, I have never felt the way I did on that day. My friendship with said heartbreaker has been something hard for me to understand, but thankfully after all our ups and  downs I can proudly say I am glad to be standing where I am today.

SO CHECK OUT THE BLOG! It means a lot to get my feelings out about it, and if you guys like it or not I am probably going to keep posting. Also, I won't explain all my posts, I just want to explain the birth of this new blog.

That's all I have,
Signing off,

Smile On Your Face

Hey readers!

We are writing to you from the one and only Brown Dog coffee shoppe!
It has been a few days since we posted in here, and since we are currently writing Taya, we thought we would post on the Production page for all you hard core Taya fans.

What we realized (Hayley and I) is that we are a production team... which as I say it now sounds really obvious. BUT! As a production team, we can branch out into several forms of media and several types of writing! As you guys know! I (Ben) started posting Bill the Russian and other tales under WWMNS productions. It is completely unrelated to Taya, but I wanted it to be tied to this group writing project as a whole!

So! What we are preposing is that IF you have something like a set of stories, or a novel, or poetry or some other form of media, we would love to be involved, help out, or even just have our work linked to yours and vice versa.

InterestingTidBitTime
A note from the authors.
Chapter 12 - Took the longest to write, was the most difficult to write, and is one of our favourites.
It is the most intense, and we are proud that the characters are pushed to their limits and have to just roll with whatever we write.

Jordan would like to add that chapter 1 is his favourite, probably because that is the only chapter he has read.

Until next time peeps!
B, H & J

P.s If you have a smile on your face, it doesn't matter what you wear on your head

Out Of Sheer Fun

Hey there readers,
We have a few announcements, and other things of importance to say today..

First of all!
Our illustrator and I started a project 8 or so months ago, called Bill the Russian and other tales.
We decided it would be kinda fun to continue writing those stories.... in our spare time... and of course post them in a sister blog so that all of you guys have silly stuff to read. So! If you are interested in Bill the Russian and other tales, check out the link below.
http://billtherussian.blogspot.ca

Disclaimer: There are currently no stories about bill, but there will be soon. Some of the material may poke fun at, celebrities (mostly fictional) and places (mostly in Canada). Please do not take them seriously, it was written out of sheer fun.

Secondly!
We are currently working on chapter 18 of The Warrior Princess.. which we have been working on for... probably over a week.. again, been a crazy month with very little time. Hayley and I find we basically need to devote the day to writing, otherwise nothing gets done...

Originally Hayley and I had wanted to finish the entire (30 chapters and all) by the end of August, I don't think we are going to make that deadline, especially since I leave for the last week of August. We will continue to try, but I highly doubt the book will be ready by the end of the summer. We are probably going to continue writing during the school year, but again, very little time means very little progress. BUT we will keep ya'll posted on our progress, and attempted deadlines.

InterstingTidBitTime
So, in chapter 11 we find out Mythra's name... kinda an exciting moment... Hayley found him a name mostly because it was difficult calling him "j'vonte's father" or "the chief/leader" so he is now named. Mythra is derived from Mithra which is derived from old persian. He is an angelic divinity or a judicial figure who is the all-seeing protector of truth. As well, he is the guardian of cattle and harvest. We found that fitting for the leader of a tribe. so hence forth! His name his Mythra.

You're Welcome.
Cheers!

Need To Eat Food To Live

Hey readers,

Time, we have not had any time!
And for that, we are deeply sorry.

It's August peeps, summer is winding down, and the writers are going back to school soon.
So we're gonna have to pump out chapters like nobody's business. Currently we are working on chapter 18, which I may add is very exciting, the pace just gets better. I've been working, and Hayley has been busy, so unfortunately the chapters have not been written very quickly, but I assure you, we will do our best to finish this thing before school, and hopefully get a pdf download of the entire thing.
It will probably cost a couple bucks, 'cause we actually need to eat food to live, but I think that is a small price to pay for hundreds of hours poured into this book, by multiple people. So yeah, go ahead and show some support. It is appreciated!

Fun Fact Time!
In chapter eleven, we are introduced to the fearsome pale elf, Akeldama. Some of you may be wondering, why is his name Akeldama? What does that even mean? Well, I am here to tell you, thank goodness for me, right? Akeldama, or Aceldama, is aramaic for "field of blood."We do not have this elf in bloody fields, it is simply a reflection on the fact that he has come from war, battle, and destruction. In other words, he is fairly experienced. Akeldama was also the field that Judas hanged himself in, after betraying Jesus. So we found it fitting, for the dark elf leader, betrayer of peoples, to be named after the place the betrayer of Jesus died. On further research of the name, we discovered that the name Akeldama is actually meant for a girl, but we decided that it would work for an elf. So the name stayed.

And that is all we wrote!

Here is the newest art! Taya and her locket

And here is the newest chapter: Akeldama.

Brown Dog Rocks

Hey readers!
This is a post about whatever we feel like. Fact.

Alrighty, so one of our good friends wants to tell you that "Brown dog rocks, Ben and Hayley are the best, read the book!"

Anywho! that aside, Dan says "do it/read it"

OK! We get it, we're awesome...
UPDATES.
Some of you may have known that my computer was on the fritz.. wasn't feeling so hot...
But now it is! It is rocking! And Ben is happy!

Views on Warrior Princess are a bit low... so be sure to check it out on the link... right here ish ---->

Fun Fact Time!
ok, so in chapter 10 we introduce the dark elves, we have had a request about them, more specifically where they come from... Originally Hayley and I referred to the elves home land as "elf land" obviously it is no longer referred to as "elf land." They come from a land called Qualah which is derived from Qalal, which means cursed or to dishonour. Which is exactly what has happened to the dark elves, yet there are other elves who are not cursed and do live in Qualah who are good.
Anyway! That is the fact of the day :)

hope you liked,

Chapter 10 is here
