Where I've Been

So, I've been taking writing really seriously over the past year. I got 15,000 words out of NaNoWriMo; not bad for a busy month running science festivals. I finished the manuscript in June, sold my retro game systems the funds for self-publishing e-books, and joined a forum thread on one of my boards to write 500 words a night. I was feeling pretty good, especially considering I'm finally a

Hooves Holding Hearts contest

So, working on the next chapter. No one reading the last one got the hints about the new kid, who is the story's main kid. I'll give these out, and the first person (and maybe a few others) who get it right will earn a small OC cameo in HHH.
Now, the kid's an OC...but the mother is not.
Here are the first few hints.

Hooves Holding Hearts Edit

So, I changed a scene in chapter four. I changed it because it didn't work, and others complained with a reasonable point.
It happens near the end of the chapter.
Spoilers ahead.
I mean, really spoilers.
If you haven;t read the chapter, it kind of ruins the punch to know this...
Ready.

So, when John is confronting the father....

What the pre-readers are saying...

Just so you know, here's some comments on the Hooves Holding Hearts chapter that drops this week.
"She had a really miserable childhood, didn't she?"
"Holy freaking s***! Nevermind Jazz, you are not worst parent anymore!"
"This is both heartwarming and utterly heartbreaking at the same time. You magnificent bastard."

Story Progress!

Chapter four of Hooves Holding Hearts is off to the pre-readers! I'm going to try to get a C&D chapter done next, I think. I'm having to split time between pony writing and writing things I actually intend to e-publish for money, but I intend to finish the crop of stories I have, maybe saving a week in summer to write "Doctor Whooves and the Mare in the Moon."

It's been awhile... · 11:52pm Nov 5th, 2013

So, I've been away because I'm trying to actually write for money. There's a gaming magazine that is interested in one of my articles, and I've doing NaNoWriMo to try to make some things I can self-publish (some anonymously, considering my job).

But I haven't forgotten you all.

Next week, I'm going to shift to PonyFanfic for my NaNoWriMo wordcount. I'm just trying to get into the habit of writing daily, so I've been working on different things instead of one novel. I'm going to finish at least one chapter, maybe two. My goal is to get the last Nightmare in Ponyville up at least to get one Damoclean sword out of the way. After that, I'll decide between HHH or C&D, both of which have a lot of work done.

I also have a completed Doctor Whooves/G1 crossover I'm sitting on, mostly waiting for some cover art.

More news to follow!
