    Still working on Midnight Rising...

    At the rate of about 800-1000 words a day. That’s my key to getting stuff done that’s causing you issues; just be sure you put at least a little time in on it this day to have some forward momentum. The two chapters are now up to 24,100 words. I’ll work on it more this weekend, at least around continuing work around the maps and battle graphics I’m making for Feathered Hearts.

    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears that it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though.

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

    Midnight Rising/C&C update: April showers may bring May flowers...

    But of more interest is the emergence of 17-year cicadas in my area. Big, ugly, red-eyed insects that are the size of your thumb but basically harmless, as long as you can get past all the shed skins they leave behind on leaves and the everpresent and disconcertly loud background sound they produce as a mating call. Fortunately, the outbreak in my area seems pretty limited. There's a few around,

    Midnight Rising update; Feathered Hearts C&C teaser...

    Hey, folks. Here’s my weekly writing update. I’m tagging this as C&C since that’s what the teaser below is about, but the blog is about both it and Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising.

Prereads of Nightmare Night are in... · 3:42pm Oct 30th, 2022

And I thank my prereaders profusely, including most especially AJ_Aficionado, for pointing out a couple glaring issues I had to address. As I have now done so, and the chapter has received a resounding stamp of approval from AJA and others, I’m going to launch it tonight instead of tomorrow. Happy Halloween, folks! 🎃 Hopefully this will be both a trick and a treat.

Readers of Nightmare Night are also invited to read (or reread) Midnight Rising to see what’s being set up for its sequel. The last couple MR chapters involving the griffies are very Nightmare Night-esque and will have a direct bearing on what happens in NMN as the story nears its climax.

After this, work resumes on the M-rated chapter upgrades of Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles. Five upgraded chapters full of additional adult interest are on the way (chapters 10-14) with the first two already finished, and among other things, they will start to establish a pattern of post-cider Gilda turning more sensual and willing to reward those who help her and her friends, with a second surprise encounter coming hard (excuse the pun) on the heels of the first.

I’m going to try to have them all out in a week. Until then, enjoy the new release of Nightmare Night! It’s Sunset Shimmer’s time to shine. It’ll launch tonight at 7 PM US Eastern time. Be looking for it!

First time in a long time I felt like I did actual work as a prereader and I mean that in the nicest way possible. Stuff like your latest chapter isn't easy to right and you really need prereaders to break down complex thought processes like what we'll see. I'm sure people will really love it!
