Welcome to the newest Fizz Hangout! Every Friday, you all can stop by the weekly Fizz Hangout post and ask questions (to us or to your fellow patrons), discuss recent bonus scenes and/or podcasts with each other, and catch up on all the goodies you might've missed!

HANGOUT QUESTION: we love seeing your response to questions about the Addictedverse, and it helps facilitate some awesome discussions! Each week, there'll be a new "hangout question" that you can answer in the comments, if you wish!

In honor of Ben's birthday tomorrow, what is one thing you love about his character?

 Weekly Recap

Happy Friday, magical & heroic beauties!! The last three weeks, we feel like we've said the same thing in this section of the hangout. We wish we had different news...but yes, we are still writing Burn Bright. We ended up having to stop near the end to reread the whole book before writing the last few chapters. But because this book is so big...it takes a little bit of time to do a reread 😅 Anyway, we are on pace to finish very soon (the irony is that we are finishing Ben's book basically on his birthday, which is, yes, our birthday!) So hopefully by the next hangout, you'll hear some different news from us!

But that also brings us to the Patreon content here. We are recording the podcasts this weekend and finishing up bonus on Monday. So yes, the main content will be coming on the last couple days of the month. Tomorrow for Ben's bday, we are dropping another Burn Bright WIP Snippet in honor of him!

Thank you so, so much for your patience! This has been one of the most difficult deadlines in our lives, and April will likely be as tough. But we promise by May, you'll see us around here much more!!

Here on Patreon, we had some fun things drop. So in case you missed it, here's what went down this week:

I love everything about Ben’s character he’s my number one fav in the whole series I love him with my whole heart 💗💗💗

cass (ben’s version)

is everything an answer??? because it’s true!!! he’s a lion in his own way. his love is ferocious and his roar can be heard miles away when he’s passionate about something. i love him so deeply! i’ve been ben’s #1 fan for the past 4 years. i’m so happy to get to celebrate him extra this september 💙💙💙

cass (ben’s version)

and let’s not forget the beautiful authors of such an amazing character. happy early birthday, krista and becca! you guys have such beautiful minds and the insanely amazing ability to create. i’m sending so much love to you both! 🥳🥳❤️❤️

Ella

I just started the like us series and have only met him in some kind of perfect so far(besides my love of spoilers lol) but his love of nature and passion for what he believes in. I know I'll adore his book. Side note its so weird and amazing reading the second gen. They're all wonderful in their own ways but I love being able to see traits they share with the core six🩷

Angelina (Charlies version) ♟️

He's a sweetheart and yet a tornado 🥹 a beautiful oxymoron!! Have the best birthday girls!! 💗💗 I hope you get the besttt rest after you're done with BB 🥰🥰 I'm sorry this deadline has been so rough 💗 I KNOW it's going to be life changing and I am over the moon excited for it!! AHHH YES ANOTHER SNIPPIT WOOPP WOOPPPP

Stephanie

Happy Birthday to the both of you plus Ben! My favourite thing about Ben is his sensitivity and his sense of optimism. I like that he strives to make the world and the things around him better. It makes me sad that Charlie tries to kill this for the sake of "protecting him" from society.

Arrow

I love Ben’s love of birds!

Arrow

Happy Birthday to you both!

I love a lot of things about Ben! One of my favorite traits of his is his love of nature + animals! :’) I watch a lot of survival shows & I always get upset when I see people resort to killing animals when they run out of the rationed food portions that some shows provide (☹️). I’m aware of the fact that it’s a competition show centered around survival, **but** at the end of the day it’s just a TV show (and I don’t think they’ll actually let me die from starvation — I’ll just be disqualified). I always get into arguments with my family about this (🙈), they view it as an essential aspect of survival whereas I just view it as a game (if an animal has to give its life in order for me to win, then I’d rather not win). I always think of Ben when I’m watching those shows and those kinds of things happen, though. If he was on one of those kinds of shows I know that I could trust him! He wouldn’t steal all of a mama bird’s eggs straight from her nest, leaving her nothing to return to (an actual thing that happened on “Race To Survive: New Zealand”). TLDR: If there’s ever an apocalypse I’m not surviving (😭).

Happy birthday!!! It’s mine and my twin sister’s 19th birthday on the 29th as well, today for us as we are from New Zealand. So cool to share a birthday with my favourite authors!! I love all of your books and characters, especially Ben! He happens to be my favourite!! ❤️

Vex

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🥳🥳 to YOU & Ben.

Bea (never.stopreading)

Happy birthday to the guy who wears his heart on his sleeve 🦋 but, most importantly, happy birthday to you! Hope you have an amazing day with your families (both the real one and the fictional one, if you'll really finish Burn bright today 😂). Sending you tons of love from Italy 🩷 Auguri! ☀️

Lucia

Happy birthday ❤️❤️ Hope you girls enjoy your special day. And happy birthday to Ben too, I can't wait to have his book in my hands and get to know him more.

Lauren Gibbs

Happy Birthday!!!!! There is no one more deserving of an amazing bday than you two lovely ladies~ ✨️❤️😍 I know your deadlines have been absolutely insane lately, and I just want to say that you've been absolute super heroes in handling everything! I'm so lucky to be here in this fandom~ ✨️🥹

Illyana

Happy birthday girls! I hope you had a galactically special birthday 😌😇

Teresa

I love the fact that Ben has a heart of gold but also a temper. Its not seen enough in books. Iam curious KBR with Ben being a vegan are there meals you had to look up for him while writing his story and any meals you tried yourself?

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Thank you and we hope you had a specular birthday yourself, Laura!! The 24th, right? Happy Belated Bday!!! MUCH LOVE TO YOU ✨️✨️ *hugs tight*

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Happy Birthday to you BOTH!!! Ahhh it's SO AWESOME to know that another pair of twin sisters are born on the 29th! It warms our hearts so much. Krista & I hope you had a blast yesterday ✨️ Lots of love to you two xoxo

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I actually used to cook a ton of vegan meals via Purple Carrot (it's basically like the vegan version of Hello Fresh and all those meal delivery services). Krista tried it for some time too, but I did it for about a whole year. So we actually knew a lot of vegan recipes before writing BB 🥰

Krista & Becca Ritchie

I loveeeeeee Race To Survive!! He would 100% not be about stealing those eggs 😆 ~ B
