    Story on Hiatus

    School has started and free time has shrunk by roughly 60-70%. My education comes as a priority over this story. Apologies to active followers, hope you understand. Will get back to it when I can, no specifics on when that is though...

    In the Middle of a Move, Temporary Halt

    Will resume writing when I can, all free time for the past few weeks has been spent on moving related work, sleep and getting stress out via games and whatnot.

    One to Make Him Shine (Progress Update 8/6 or 8/7, Plus SIDE STORY VOTING!)

    Currently, I'm a little over halfway done with the chapter and I'm at nine pages and I'm about a third or fourth of the way into the backstory for Trixie that I promised.

    I SAID I'D DO IT LIVE!

    AND I DID!!!!!!

    ...Wrote five pages tonight, that's 2 and a half more pages than I had written over the past month.

    The story is back on track and chapter 4 should finish soon. As early as thursday or as late as monday, I'm going to attempt to try and make that goal. I'm at about the halfway point of the chapter, so I'm feeling good about this.

    FUCK IT, I'LL DO IT LIVE!!

    ...Uh, except not really.

    Chapter 4 has been on hold for a while and it was simply from the inability to figure out how to make a particular part of it work out. To be specific, I was having trouble working out how to handle the first half.

    But, after browsing through some other stories on here, I came to a state of clarity and realized that sometimes less is more.

Chapter 3 is LIVE! · 9:18pm Jun 7th, 2012

A whopping 3/4 weeks, 21 pages, 8.4k words and a couple of days of editing here and there and chapter 3 is FINALLY done and ready for your consumption! Sorry it took a while but as you can see, I put a crap ton of material into this chapter.

First off, I'd like to thank my pre-readers once again for doing a great job helping me with the writing, spitballing ideas and helping me develop scenes and whatnot as I went along. Worth further praise is Cerulean, another writer here on FIMFic who did a FANTASTIC job going over my fic and doing an incredibly in depth check on the chapter for errors, grammar, spelling, etc.

The chapter was a very necessary departure from Trixie as the COMPLETE and SOLITARY focus of the story for the sake of developing the other characters a bit, specifically for Starlight Sonata and Tempest. Most notable are the scenes involving Elusive and Dusk Shine, but I had the most fun writing Dusk Shine's little argument with his sister Shimmer Shield. In the end, I think having the focus off of Trixie and kinda making her a 'secondary' character to the story was a good call, let me get a good idea of how to establish everyone else's behavior!

And apology in advance for the unexpectedly LONG chapter, I just ended up having so much I wanted to put in that I couldn't stop. I'll try and keep chapters a little shorter this time but hopefully the long wait will be made up for by this extra meat filled chapter.

Uh, can't think of much else to comment on. Hope you guys like the chapter. Feel free to post any questions and the like in the blog comment box or on the story comment box!
