It's unfair, perhaps, to tease you, but I did start one. It petered out after 10,000 words or so. That was several computers ago; I'm not sure I could lay my hands on any of the manuscript anymore.

I'd said in Emerald House Rising that wizards always worked in male-female pairs, and I set out to find a way around that rule in the (unnamed) sequel. What I remember about it was that the main viewpoint character was a castrato (a man who had been gelded to keep his boy soprano singing voice) in a wizard quartet: the castrato, another man, and a pair of women who were identical twins . . . so that they could joke that between the four of them, they added up to one man and one woman.
