Follow up to this post, here are Mike and Will’s pen names. The way I decided on them was based on genre (did Far Too Much research on author pen names and consensus is the name has to match what kind of book it is). Also,,, you might quickly pick up on a theme of their “first names” lmao.
For their DnD book/Graphic novel:
Will: M.W. Bloomfield
Mike: William M. Blackmore
Plot: DnD characters/monsters come to life in middle school setting. Some pulling from real life but not so much that they would get in trouble. Serial. It switches between realistic (somewhat kid-friendly) horror with DnD-Adjacent monsters to DnD campaign.
Start writing the earliest draft their Junior year of high school. Go through many drafts before they finally publish it right after they graduate college.
Becomes popular enough to get a cult-following. It’s ongoing from the mid 90s to like 2016.
Maybe after their identities are revealed, they do a few crossover one-shots with other popular series like PJO (bc I Know they’d be Author Friends shut up), and like other DnD stories.
For their Gay Romance:
Mike: Lewis Wakeham
Will: Xavier Wakeham
(Yes they made their pseudonyms married bc they’re both Cheeseballs)
Plot: Probably more aimed at young adults. childhood friends to lovers, the angst of being gay in a small town. mention of the AIDS crisis. Maybe sort of like Brokeback but Happier Ending.
(Takes significantly larger time period to get this one published. But it does well. Might have at least one sequel.)
For their Children’s Books:
Will: W.M. Oak
Mike: M.W Rose
They make the first one fairly early on in their careers, find out how fun it is, and continue to make them. Anywhere between early readers (age 4-8), to first chapter books (6-10ish). (Any older than that, they decide, falls under Bloomfield & Blackmore’s jurisdiction.). Once they start fostering, perhaps put slightly more love/thought into these.
And going back to their names all getting connected in the 2010s, I feel like afterwards their children’s books might get banned in conservative spaces. Though some were already banned for teaching “controversial” topics like divorce, blended families, moving away, and like, grief.
Feel like characters would be something similar to Bernstein bears or idk Arthur.
Anyway, thank you for indulging me by asking about this @evil-ontheinside and @champion-rowlet ☺️
