New Story Aftermath/What to Expect · 2:20am May 2nd, 2012
So, first I would like to thank all 94 of you who have begun following (Or added to favorites) my story and the 45 people who gave it a thumbs up. The positive commentary and even the advice has been extremely appreciated. The contrast in response from my 'original' fic and this is quite amazing.
I mentioned I would be addressing some key concerns/comments posted in the story's comment section, and I took a crack at writing out a response and it came out extremely long and over explanatory.
The chapter detailing Trixie's process of 'arriving' in this world will be, as said, chapter 3 or 4. It won't compose the entire chapter, more like a third or half of it.
The genderswapping was done because I didn't want to do a Twixie fic and because it was untapped material for fresh writing.
As Trevor commented (And knew in advance because he was a pre-reader) I probably will not be making the 63'd 'mane six' be more than minor characters. I will bring them up in passing conversation and maybe a visit from them once or twice.
Further plans, I really can't detail on. It'd be a bit too much to divulge to you guys. I've got some ideas in the works and I have a primary editor I will be discussing said ideas with as I work on the story. There was a lot I wrote earlier in an attempt to explain some things but again, I divulged too much information that I think if people looked too deep into they'd figure out something long in advance before I wrote it down in text.
I'm considering adding another pre-reader or two onto the team of the two I already have. I'm not too worried about this being a case of too many cooks in the kitchen, mostly because the pre-readers will be providing feedback and aren't always 100% going to be changed. But I do want some second, third and fourth opinions, so an extra couple pre-readers would be handy. If you'd like to give a shot at it, please let me know. Add me on Skype, my name is OhYouFool.
And that's all I can think to comment on for now. With no schedule planned, I will just make posts here when I start writing/near completion. But realistically, chapter 2 shouldn't take longer than a week or two. There'll probably be a break after that so I can focus on studying for finals and then... I'm in the clear. I'll just be working over the summer so that'll give me a massive amount of free time to write.
And author's notes may be an occurrence once more in the future. That's all for now!
