OBSIDIAN²
OBSIDIAN² is an independent writing and publishing brand dedicated to creating impactful stories and helping authors bring their own stories to life.
As writers and publishers, OBSIDIAN² creates compelling fiction that explores powerful themes including courage, justice, faith, perseverance, and the pursuit of truth. Our stories aren’t afraid to explore the darker realities of the world while delivering narratives that entertain, challenge perspectives, and leave a lasting impact.
Beyond our own writing, OBSIDIAN² is passionate about supporting fellow authors on their publishing journey. We assist writers in turning their manuscripts into professionally presented books and navigating the path from completed story to published work.
Whether creating our own stories or helping others share theirs with the world, OBSIDIAN² is committed to the power of storytelling and believes that every powerful story deserves the opportunity to be heard.
OBSIDIAN² — Creating stories. Empowering authors. Publishing possibilities.
Our Story
OBSIDIAN² was born from a shared passion for powerful storytelling and the belief that great stories become even stronger when different creative minds come together.
We are Timothy Bornman and Michael Crouwkamp, two writers united by a love for creating stories that entertain, challenge, and leave a lasting impression. As a two-man writing team, we bring our individual perspectives, ideas, and strengths together to create something greater than either of us could create alone.
Our writing is driven by a passion for compelling characters, meaningful themes, intense conflict, and stories that pull readers into worlds they won’t soon forget. We believe that every story has the power to make readers feel something—to inspire, challenge, entertain, and sometimes even change the way they see the world.
OBSIDIAN² represents the meeting of two creative voices, two perspectives, and one shared passion.
Together, we don’t simply write stories.
We build worlds. We create characters. We explore the darkness—and search for the light within it.
