Good Evening,
Well, I'm finally back at FIM Fiction! I won't bore you with details of my training, but it was long and hard. I now have a new position, which is exciting. I feel like my new position is actually important and not just part of the beauracary. However, there is one downside. I went from 40 hours/5 days a week to 60 hours/6 days a week. Thus my time for writing has gone from 20-30 hours a week down to 10 or less. So, until my time in this position is done, my writing will slow. Not cease, just slow. However, I remain as committed as ever to my writing, and I wanted to give y'all an update:
Dreams of the Heart. By far my most popular story. I've been working on Part II since June. I've written and rewritten it at least a dozen times, but now I think I've found a format that I'm satisfied with. I've started rewriting it and hope to have it published within the next month or two.
Lost Pegasus. I had Chapter 2 written before my departure, but didn't have time to polish it. I'm satisfied with it, and have just published it. I'm working on the next few chapters and will try to publish a new chapter every month. As this story is a writing lab for me (hence no editor), I don't obsess over every word like I do Dreams of the Heart. Not to say that it's a lower quality of work, just a different aim. But whereas I have planned out the next twenty chapters of Dreams in excruitiating detail, I have only a rough sketch of Lost Pegasus. I know the plot, but allow myself to freewrite and create the story as I go along. Very different writing process.
Other than those, I've written a new story that I hope to publish in the next week or two and have started some other projects. Check back for further developments.
Keep Writing (You know I have),
Dreadnought
Welcome back!
I've been waiting for you for weeks now. I've kinda run into a kink in the writing process on the collab, so while you were gone, I went ahead and published several new stories, founded a group, and started another collab at the same time as working on a different one that's run by me and the admins of my group.
