Hello, demigods, long time no see

This is just a quick update to apologize for being gone so long. Covid, what can I say? I usually do most of my writing at Barnes & Noble, so when they were closed for the past four months, I found it hard to write. I have also been working this entire time, yay essential workers! If they only payed us like we were.

But never mind my excuses, I just want to put out this quick update letting you all know that I've been working on COO and it's sequel series(surprise!) while I've been gone.

Please read these then I'll get out of your hair:

The first thing I want to say is thank you to everyone who is still reading and loving this story, I can't thank you enough. Your support has always been my greatest motivation, and you don't understand what it means to me. Thank you.

Second, the next chapter will be the FINALE of Champion Of Olympus. I decided to change my plans and remove the chapter between the last and the Finale. But don't worry, we're still getting the same content. This Finale is going to be a long one, I'm at 5k words right now and I'm nowhere near done. (I recently put up a rough draft of my current progress of the chapter on my for free, check it out if you'd like. Links on my twitter)

Third, about the announcement of the sequel series to COO. I won't be giving too much info away right now, except that it's called 'Daughters Of Olympus' and it's a next-gen continuation series containing three(for now) planned books. The series will take place about 14-15 years after COO and will follow not only Percy and Annabeth's children, but the next generation of demigods as they struggle to find their place in a world after the events of the Promised Day during COO.

Fourth, I'm still working on The Half-Blood Wars, my original series where every pantheon, god, spirit and monster is real. And where Greece and Rome are world superpowers fighting for world domination. It's an adventure/romance/political thriller thing set in my own alternate universe and history. Check it out on my profile or on my twitter( HephaestusBuild) or on my World Anvil.

Fifth, with the ending of Champion Of Olympus I want to do a Q&A / FAQ bonus chapter thing for you guys to not only thank you for reading this story but to also answer any questions or thoughts you have about the story so far.

To leave a question just leave one in a Review, PM or on Twitter and I'll answer it when I post the bonus chapter.

Sorry again for the HUGE delay in finishing this story, I can't apologize enough. I'll do my best to get it out in about a week or so. It'll be a really long chapter and I don't want to rush it. Plus work is crazy, I hate being an adult sometimes.

Have a good one,

Hephaestus
