Blog Stop for Second Sight by TC Hart 9/22

Background of the book:
As friends we have always felt strongly about celebrating diversity. We also know that young people will be the ones to create our future. We want that future to be one of love, understanding and compassion. With that in mind we explored our own roles in how to help make this future a reality. Since we both love to read we decided to reach out through the written word. We found a lack of teen literature that had healthy gay role models as main characters. While there were several books that dealt with the difficulty many young gay people had, and these are important, we also wanted books that showed a new generation of acceptance. A generation that honored not only one’s sexuality, but everyone’s unique individuality. Since we both work full time and have large families who are very important to us, our progress was slow. The book took us over a year to complete and was revised more times than we can remember. We’ve had several people ask us “How can you possibly write a book together?” We have found it to be a fun and positive experience. As we write, we bounce ideas off each other and even our teenagers as they wander through the living room. Our questions ranged anywhere from asking them “Is Beyonce still considered hot?” to “Do teenagers still say ‘cool’?” We had to laugh as they reluctantly answered and rolled their eyes, but continued to support us in this process. We also found we each had different strengths that we played off of. When one of us lacked in motivation, the other was there to keep us moving ahead, unless we talked each other into going out to play instead! We are so excited about the release of Second Sight and have already started outlining the next book in our series. We hope to continue to create positive characters that inspire our world to be a better place.
