    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.

C&C chapter 38 will launch Thursday night · 4:44pm January 10th

Final preread is in—thanks, Silverblade5. So all that’s left is a final editing pass followed by creating the T-rated version. It shouldn’t actually be much shorter than the regular one, as sex does not take center stage here.

Expect the 13,000-word chapter to move at a brisk pace, starting with a recap of events in Eros. Aside from the adult aspects and reviewing some of what was learned about Changeling culture and history, you’ll learn what agreement was finally struck between Cipio and Gilda.

The first fruits of that agreement are soon implemented in the form of our favorite griffie girl being assigned new troops, who aren’t exactly happy to be there. You’ll then get to see how she deals with their resentment along with our two Archons, who will appear in their “true” griffon personas for the first time. With regards to the latter, you’ll also get some sense of their different personalities and proclivities. Needless to say, they have a friendly rivalry going.

This is just the first chapter of a new arc where a series of progressively bigger events are planned, many of which will be drawn from the original story. I’ll start incorporating content from it again next chapter. And if you want something to look forward to, the next C&C chapter after this one will include Firefly-style campaign maps as Gilda attends a Council of War. It’s there she (along with the readers) will finally be caught up to speed on the progress of the Cloven invasion, and the overall situation the Kingdom faces.

As far as Eros goes, I have 23,000 words written of the next entry in the new arc that I’m still trying to turn into a new chapter or three. I’ll be working on finishing at least one more chapter of it next. When not directly explained, you’ll at least have some hints of what happened in Eros here in C&C.

The cloven will be overrun by a storm of bunnies :yay:
It's like the clone wars, just without clones, but still a army of white heros to come to everyones help :rainbowdetermined2:👍
We might have to scale up the sharp butter knife production to keep up with the troop production though... :derpytongue2:
