Raythe Reign's Ever Dark

Some of you might know that we're doing a showboat celebration printing of Ever Dark. It's been... a process. Here to talk about this process are Raythe and Sylvia Frost as they discuss making this a truly special edition. If you want to be notified about EDSE progress, obviously we'll post here and on our YT community tab, but the most reliable way is to join our email list here: https://shop.raythereign.com/free-book-email-list/

We're starting production of the EDA podcast! On YouTube, it'll be on the same channel as Ever Dark because we have playlists. On Spotify etc, it will have its own feed, which can be found here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/0yaYmQ79zNQ1beaR80oLLU?si=qVsLsWRtQD2GMgqNj4Gr5Q There's very little sexy stuff in the first volume of EDA, but when the sexy stuff starts happening, it's not as neatly sectioned off as the other stories. There's going to be a lot of ungraceful edits to cut out the non-PG material. Fortunately we won't have to worry about that very much until V2, which starts at chapter 19.

Now that Raythe's written 8 BIG chapters of Ever Reign, she talks about how it's been going! Ever Reign is starting like any other story, as a Members-only serial on RaytheReign.com.

When we made our announcement about Ever Reign last week, we managed to be confusing and got questions from some of our new readers and listeners. We also got a lot of enthusiastic comments about Caspian, Hermes and Illarion! OLD Dragon's Reign podcast (very amateur!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_JkRUUTpxWH1A5DgXcc9wQnT8SogvRlB | COMPLETED Ever Dark podcast: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_JkRUUTpxWEyrsBZ-1iqSfgB-KfR3IuQ | Membership sale: https://raythereign.com/index.php/membership-plans | Ever Reign themed candle boxes: https://shop.raythereign.com/shop/ever-reign-celebration-launch-box/ | Answer to biggest question: Ever Reign is a WRITTEN SERIAL STORY on RaytheReign.com. It's text! Not audio. The same way every story starts out. | At this point, we don't have any plans on the schedule to make it an audio story in 2026. We've already gotten in trouble this year for "talking too far ahead" like a game studio, and then having to seriously rethink our plans. (Don't worry EDA is coming out in February.)

Illarion gets a boyfriend, and he's a CAT PERSON! Tilly, Illarion and the dogs are left in charge while the adults are on vacation. That's right it's the epic sequel to Dragon's Reign starting this month for Members with 4 chapters on the schedule.

Do you like having shorter episodes? You'll still get the same chapter, just broken up into installments. Some readers love the long episodes and some of them think that anything over 15 minutes looks indimidating. Tell us where you fall in the comments!
