Alterations and What not. · 3:58pm Jan 30th, 2016
Never sure which story to tag these to, if anything. I often tend to say a little about each of my stories in these.
Near the end of the month, so, time to keep to my promise of at least one blog of the month.
I was surprised I kept to my timeline for the Gryphon Empire chapter. Mainly because I spent an entire week writing about 17 pages of details on all of the acts to my Mauxie story. Plans are now to have 3 one-shots that show events prior to "Maud's Boulder Holder" and two after it. I just hope I don't go overboard on the story lengths.
The story will span from shortly after Sunset came to Canterlot High *As who knows how long she took to get used to the world at first, right?*, to shortly after the Equestrian Games. Admittedly, the Equestrian Games only plays a tiny part in the last chapter.
I am also altering plans slightly. My next project will be the first act of the Mauxie series, then either the next Gryphon empire chapter, or, finally, altering Hopes and Follies a little to prepare for the sequel. Yeah, Hopes keeps getting pushed here and there, but, the sequel is coming. I am just more interested in getting my other two projects along more/finished.
Another part of the reason for the Mauxie going first is that I am getting a cover art done on it from IJAb.
So, I've edited for years, commented on stories, wrote stories, bought merchandise in one form or another, and now, commissioned art. I feel secure in my little contributions to the fandom.
All that's left to do is finish my stories and I can see if I want to continue to create or not. I do this more for fun, and to see what people think of what I do *validation is a wonderful thing after all*.
Ironically, I think the Mauxie story will be the only one completely finished of my new projects for the year. Or at least the only one I am aiming to finish. I know for a fact that the Gryphon Empire and Hopes sequel's are not, unless something very unusual happens.
Off to play some D+D with friends, I shall see you all another time.
Thanks for the update! Consider yourself validated.
Well, I'll hold out hope that the Hopes and Follies sequel at least makes an appearance before the end of the year... I look forward to the Mauxie, too.
3723639 Heh, I can't delay it much more. I am not intentionally delaying it, but it's just what's happening. My project plate and reasons for delaying are dwindling, I expect the first chapter to be out before April at the latest.

Oooh. Good, I need some Twixie in my life.
Oh, you're doing a series of Mauxie fics around Maud's Boulder Holder? That is good news.
It sounds like you previously announced that, but I only started following your blog entries recently, so it's news to me.
