Another apology and arts. · 1:47pm Aug 29th, 2014
I took a 'me' weekend last week, simply to try and get my mind back into order after the horrible rush period going on at work. This meant that very little work done on writing, and instead I mulled about playing games, sleeping, reading, and going for jogs. I'm really sorry, but I hope to get back into it this weekend. My goal is to focus on the 'Nightmare Night' story, and get that out, so then I only have two things to focus on for the week after. ^-^;
Anyhow, as per the rules, since I missed a week there is art to share.
This was done by MLeonheart, and I absolutely love it. I think the outfit Ebony is wearing is becoming almost a 'thing' with her. As for Minder, she makes a cute pony-girl, although I am curious what Bastion would think. ^-^;
Just two shape-shifters having fun, I suppose. Given Ebony's concerns with humans having no tails, among other things, it makes sense she would keep equine features where possible. As for Minder? Well, she just goes with the flow. ^-^
So, sadly it's not Minder's pony form as such, but at least it gives a rough idea of what she looks like as a unicorn!
Anyhow, again I am sorry, and hope to have something to send to Treil after this weekend!

Well, I don't know if I've told you before, but you can't rush art.
Don't strain yourself to try and force out a chapter. I'm sure most, if not all of your watchers are patient.
As i have said before i say it again the wait is worth it

I hoped for pony-Ebony, but, well, anthro-Ebony is good too! And Minder is cute! And kinda looks like Luna, young version. Not filly Woona, but not an adult Princess Luna too. Yay for her cuteness!
Ah anthro. I like it from an art standpoint and a fantasy embellishment but I find it almost always makes ponies less appealing. Humanized suits them better IMO. But I prefer pure pony.
As for your peesonal time, that is what it is and you should enjoy it. In fact your writing should be just another personal time activity you do.
I love how you always find the best artists to commission. This is beautiful!
And keeping with what everyone else has said; don't stress yourself, we're perfectly content to wait.
Hee, I love this artwork. Ebony and Minder look very cute and, dare I say it, sexy. That light blush on Minder's face is adorable.
Don't worry about taking a week for yourself, I've been taking a week for myself for eight months now so compared to me you're a workaholic.
One question does get raised in my brain when looking at the art, though. Where did Ebony and Minder get those clothes? Do they transform clothes onto them as part of shape-shifting, or did they raid Jessica's wardrobe? Or maybe Rarity made them! If so, you definately should consider a little short story of Rarity taking Ebony's measurements and having Ebony model for her, tee hee!
Don't worry, we shall all patiently await your next post. Just don't run out of money commissioning art; it can get pretty darn expensive!
Also could you link to the artist? I'd greatly appreciate it.
Chrysalis looks like a soccer mom...
Great pic That look definitely suits Ebony.
No need to apologize. You're stories are worth the wait.
Now I wonder if this will be canon some day. And I know what you'll answer!.
While I love your stories, take as much time as you need. I write for fun myself; mainly for tabletop RPGs. I find it's best to take a break when it starts to feel like a chore. Not very efficient, but less stressful. It's usually balanced out by the times my muse rides my back and I end up sleep deprived due to writing...
D'awh, they both are quite the lookers! Though I'm pretty sure Bastion'd glare at me, and Ebony would poke me away.
Although it is good to hear that you are out and about, pokin' this way and that, and that things are 'alright' in your world. Occassional blog posts are nice, and now I'm super -restoked for the next chapter.
TL; DR - Sorry for not writing, have some tits.
but in all seriousness, no need to rush anything
When the writing is done, its done, its a treat each and every update, and relished that way. Having fast updates would spoil things.

I'm sure it might be revealed why she uses those clothes, and where she gets them from... in time!
I'm also glad everyone seems to enjoy the piccie. ^-^
