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!

The "summer trip" is currently ongoing in the Frog & Quinn story. Luna and Donnelly might not be headed to just Panama City Beach, FL. Can you guess the other city they might be stopping in on their final summer hoorah before the MVU semester begins?

 Weekly Recap

Happy Friday, magical & heroic beauties! We are back from A Meet (& Greet) Cute event in Knoxville and we had the absolute best time!! Thank you to all the patrons who came and stopped by our table. 🩷 It was also so much fun teasing Burn Bright by having the ARC displayed. We'd only received these chunky babies a couple days before the event, so our excitement was on the same level as all of yours! Truly freaking out.

There was something so surreal about holding this book in our hands. It made us the most emotional and the most giddy we've ever felt. It even topped seeing Addicted to You traditionally published. We can't explain why exactly...only that this books means the world to us. We're not putting any expectations on how well it will sell or how many readers will pick it up. We're just super glad it exists in the world as exactly the story we wanted to tell 🦋

To be brutally honest, the past couple of years have been hard in ways that we only experienced waaaay back with The Raging Ones and we thought we wouldn't experience again. We love what we write, but when we traditionally publish a book, we give a lot of control over to a publisher. It's not the creative control we struggle with so much as the marketing control. We have little say in how or how much our books get pushed, and when they don't get pushed at all -- it can be super disheartening. Even harder when we have to finish writing a series that we know won't reach many readers. But one thing we do know...

Seeing so many readers come up to us last weekend in Knoxville and tell us how much they loved Dishonestly Yours and Destructively Mine was both surprising (not that they loved it, but that they read it!) and really, really heartwarming. It made us excited to finish out this series as strong as it can be. So truly, thank you all for reading this series and letting us know 🫶 Destructively Mine will likely always be one of our all-time favs, and the characters in the Webs We Weave series mean a lot to us -- so it makes it extra special hearing others love them too.

This week, we had another Frog and Quinn chapter drop! So here's everything that went down on Patreon this week:

I made my cousin (who’s basically my sister) read Dishonestly Yours and Destructively Mine and it’s brought us closer together for sure because it was her entry into the KBR-verse (she’s actually finished both Circus is Family books, read up to Infamous Like Us, and just started the Addicted series a few days ago)!! Forever thankful that you wrote Webs We Weave, and we’re both really really looking forward to Dangerously Ours 🥹🩷 And I’ve always been a massive FrogQuinn shipper so I’m dyinggg for the rest of their book! I’ve been to the US before but idk the geography so I couldn’t possibly guess where summer location #2 is, but my curiosity is piqued 😇

R

i asked this in the hangout groupchat but in case you don’t see it — the link for apple books said its not available in my country/region, are you guys able to change that/will you? thank you SO much for answering this, because im dying a thousand deaths waiting for BB and i really want to buy it on apple!!!

I (and so many other people) have so much love for Dishonestly Yours and Destructively Mine, and I know we’ll all love the epic conclusion to the WWW series with Dangerously Ours once you release it into the world🩷💜 Not only do I LOVE everything about the story and characters (Destructively Mine currently sits in my top 5 favorite books), but there’s also so many good things that series has brought with it. I got to see you two on tour in Mystic for DY and create more memories with my sister that I’ll never forget, and at the tour stop in Brooklyn for DM! The signings are always a highlight of my year🫶🏻 after the DY tour stop, this introvert finally took the leap and started my bookstagram account so I could connect with more fellow readers and fans of your books, and I got to finally meet some fellow book friends at the DM tour stop this April. I also got to be a part of Haley’s traveling arc for DM that she so kindly let me be a part of. The Webs We Weave series has brought so many amazing things and people over the past few years and I can’t wait for the final book in the series!!✨💕 I’ll stop there now that I’ve turned into a maple tree😂🥹🫶🏻

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Oh our hearts! This made me smile so much today and get misty-eyed! It means really everything to hear all the great things to come out of the series 🥹🥹🥹 The tours, for us too, have been an absolute highlight, and we loved seeing you and your sis for DY and then you for DM! Meeting so many readers and having more time to chat during those events were so special *HUGS SO TIGHT* 🩷🩷 Thank you for sharing this, Julia!! xoxo B

Krista & Becca Ritchie

We've uncovered the mystery in the chat! In case you missed it, we realized that the UAE isn't a country that we're able to publish in for Apple Books. We're so sorry 🩷 I hope this changes in the future, bc we'd love for you to have it on that platform

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Aww this seriously made me tear up just reading. I love love love that these books could bring you closer to your cousin (we also love that you're close to your cousin in general bc we also have cousins that feel like sisters to us too!) 🩷 Thank you for sharing this with us, definitely riding this WWW high into the writing sunset 🥰 And we're so happy you're loving FrogQuinn!!! 🎉 More to come very soon! The next chapter is one of my favs! xoxo B

Keep doing what you are doing because everything y’all write is top tier and a must read in my opinion! There is just something about the worlds and characters y’all create ❤️Anytime anyone asks for book recommendations, y’all’s are the first I recommend! I have a co-worker that completely fell in love with your books this year! Getting to discuss with her and see her reactions was like getting the opportunity to reread the Addicted series and Like Us series for the first time all over again vicariously through her. Hoping she finishes the WWW series this summer so we can gush over those together as well.

Teresa

Hi KBR , how is writing for Dangerously Ours coming along. Are you still editing or it's completed and you've sent it off?

Arrow

I’m so sorry that the past few years have been tough! It’s wild to me the decisions publishers make for authors whose books regularly make the USA Today bestseller’s list. I’m so excited for the conclusion to WWW and just bursting to get my hands on Burn Bright. I hope that you are able to continue on a better path with the hybrid publishing option, which seems to give more control over ownership and marketing.

Arrow

For the question - I’m going to guess Mystic, CT or Victoria! Or maybe Roswell, NM for the Lunnelly vibes.

Bruna

Back to the patreonnnn after a tiny break 🤍 lately I’ve been thinking so much about Circus is family, I even watched Center stage because you guys said it was part of the inspo. 🤍 I love those books so so much, it would be a dream come true if we got more books.

Krista & Becca Ritchie

Just seeing this, but DO is officially complete and is just going through its final editing stages with the copyeditor (then proofer) 💜
