I have a question. I'm Emerson. I have anxiety and emetophobia (fear of vomiting). I really want to read this book, but I'm scared I'm gonna have to face my fears in this book. I don't mind the word being used as some sort of proverb. but when it really happens.... that really triggers my anxiety. so i was just wondering... is this book appropriate for me?

Aliza Harmon There was no vomiting in this that I can remember (I finished it this morning) so I think you’re good

How do the dual authors work here? Is it not obvious in the writing? I've never read a story written by more than one person before; I'm really stumped by this, lol.

"One of the best things about writing a book with your best friend is the brainstorming. We started right away, adding our best ideas into a virtual melting pot that would go on to become the first draft of Twin Crowns. We both love romantic comedies, epic landscapes, and stories about sisterhood. We wanted witty banter, sarcastic best friends, hopeless flirting, and lots of sneaking around. Then we added swoon-worthy love interests, magic, witches, royalty, and of course, a cute animal side-kick. We spent long nights coming up with a fully realized backstory for the land of Eana, the world in which Twin Crowns takes place. We weaved our own myths and legends, sometimes texting each other at 2am or 3am with the spark of a new idea. Then we created the world itself. We created a kingdom that sprawled across landscapes we love, from the desert to the sea. Then we filled it with lush forests and bustling towns, and of course – the towering palace of Anadawn, and its glittering golden gates."

Can you tell us a bit about the challenges you faced while writing and how you were able to overcome them?

Doyle: We had so much fun writing Twin Crowns. The biggest challenge was writing most of it remotely, from two different countries, but that simply made for a lot of phone calls, and epic Google Doc sessions.
