    Still working on Midnight Rising...

    At the rate of about 800-1000 words a day. That’s my key to getting stuff done that’s causing you issues; just be sure you put at least a little time in on it this day to have some forward momentum. The two chapters are now up to 24,100 words. I’ll work on it more this weekend, at least around continuing work around the maps and battle graphics I’m making for Feathered Hearts.

    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears that it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though.

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

    Midnight Rising/C&C update: April showers may bring May flowers...

    But of more interest is the emergence of 17-year cicadas in my area. Big, ugly, red-eyed insects that are the size of your thumb but basically harmless, as long as you can get past all the shed skins they leave behind on leaves and the everpresent and disconcertly loud background sound they produce as a mating call. Fortunately, the outbreak in my area seems pretty limited. There's a few around,

    Midnight Rising update; Feathered Hearts C&C teaser...

    Hey, folks. Here’s my weekly writing update. I’m tagging this as C&C since that’s what the teaser below is about, but the blog is about both it and Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising.

Wrapping up release week... · 12:24pm Nov 3rd, 2017

A warm welcome to all new readers of Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night! Thank you very much for the likes and watches. The story featured for nearly a day and a half but hasn’t quite pulled itself over the century mark for total likes yet. Nevertheless, I’m pleased with the reception, and have plenty more planned. Things are just getting started with the end of part 4, and no member of Mane 6 will escape. Will Spike, Starlight and Trixie fall prey as well? Stay tuned!

I will, however, be taking a break from the story. I had to put a massive two-week push on to get the first five chapters done in time for Halloween, and that’s rather draining to the creative juices. I owe several people prereads on separate stories, so those will be taken care of, and after that? November is National Novel-Writing Month (https://nanowrimo.org/), and so I’m taking a month-long break from my Fimfiction projects to resume work on my second actual novel. Yes, I have written a book, though it’s an adult anthro romance novel that’s not pony-related:

I’ll be working on its sequel this month, something I know at least a couple readers have been waiting for me to do. I may do some work on my pony stories to take a break from it, and a chapter release is not out of the question, but this has priority in November. So when can new UtM-NN chapters be expected? I will be aiming to have at least one ready for the two-year anniversary of the original UtM launch in mid-December, and a second later in the month as an Xmas present of sorts.

In the meantime, if you like mare-on-mare action, you are invited to check out prereader AJ_Aficionado’s new release, Foolers Rush In, a story about flower ponies and fillyfooler bars, unrequited love, self-discovery and saving the universe in roughly that order. He’s been an avid follower and a contributor to my own works as well as specializing in longpost comments on my chapters, so please give him a look and some love. He put a lot of work in on this one and I can vouch for it!
