    Feathered Hearts C&C chapter 40 will launch tonight

    I apologize for the long delay. The chapter draft was submitted to prereaders a month ago and well-received, but the graphics have taken me a while and several false starts. The main reason is I tried multiple methods to include unit icons in the maps of Aresia, but the end result always seems more cluttered than anything else. Here's an example:

    Without unit icons:

    New Midnight Rising chapter off to prereaders...

    At long last. This is the redo of the chapter I was forced to scrap in April and then about 80% rewrite. I saved a few select bits and pieces from the original version, but the rest went by the wayside.

    Still pecking away on Midnight Rising and Feathered Hearts...

    The two Lemon Zest chapters of Midnight Rising have now reached 26,600 words and they’re still nowhere near done, with probably another 5-6k words to go. Gotta treat the girl right, after all, and also make sure there’s plenty of sexy side dishes around her. And as for Feathered Hearts?

    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.

Coming November Attractions... · 4:46pm Nov 9th, 2017

For fans of Into the Storm: The Flight of Firefly, I will be aiming for a new chapter release this weekend or early next week, depending on how quickly I can get the rest written. The new chapter currently stands at 3500 words and should be at least double that length by the end. Expect it to be the second part of a three-chapter arc dealing with the Empire's first-day attack on Cloudsdale, and as promised previously, it will be told from a new point of view, the identity of whom I will keep secret for now. It will deal with the attack from the perspective of those who were not lucky enough to have Thunderbolt around at the start; how they reacted, initially hid or fled, and finally began to fight back. You should also start getting a much better sense of the scale of this strike; the biggest single battle of the first day of war.

I will attempt to get a map or two of Cloudsdale and the Weather Factory ready as well, though if it's enough to make my deadline slip, I will forego it for now. I have all of Thanksgiving week off, I'm happy to say, so there'll be plenty of time to work on it later.

And after that? I'm also planning to attempt a release of the next Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night chapter in time for Thanksgiving. Teaser will follow as release gets closer, but I'll leave you guessing as to who gets corrupted next, and how. Expect one major surprise even outside of that, however...

As always, I am quite looking forward to this next installment.

You know, your latest avatar gives me an idea for later in Nightmare Night. No spoilers, but you’ll know it when you read it! :twilightsmile:

Thanks! Hopefully you won’t have long to wait.
