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."

Where I've been, and What's Coming Up · 5:24pm Nov 30th, 2013

So, I spent November working on NaNoWriMo stuff to actually self-publish sometime in the next year. Since I've almost gotten into the habit of writing daily by visualizing the stern face of Isaac Asimov, I'm interested in finishing off the narratives that are leaving people hanging.

I did 2.5 K of Nightmare in Ponyville yesterday, an hope to have it done in the next week. After that? We'll see, although I'm working on C&D and HHH in little bits. Rest assured, all my stories have the endings already written in my head, and won't fall off because I don't know where to go.
