    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.

Nightmare Night paused, Into the Storm up next · 6:47pm Apr 9th, 2018

Up until now, I'd been thinking I'd continue working on Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night following this weekend's release, but unfortunately, I find I need a break from writing M-rated stories for a bit.

The reason is that after writing two long and VERY wild ending chapters to The Lawyer and The Unicorn (which those of you who enjoy Unleash the Magic-type action should definitely love!) plus the latest Nightmare Night chapter, my erotic batteries are running low and need a chance to recharge. I need a change of pace, so I'm going to shift gears to writing my favorite military epic Into the Storm - the Flight of Firefly for now. I know I've left no less than three major scenes hanging at this point, teasing them all heavily, and I apologize for it. But I don't want to write them until I feel able to do them justice and enjoy the process. I'm afraid if I tried now, neither will be true.

When I return to it, I'm going to write all three scenes in their own shorter chapters with minimal asides and overhead, each chapter distilled as much as possible to the scene itself. That way, I don't have to worry about pacing and can go full throttle on each; that way you can pick and choose the scenes you want and avoid the topics or characters you don't, as I know certain things won't appeal to everyone.

When the time comes, I will wait until all three chapters are ready and then release them one after another a day or two apart. The order of the chapters will be the order the scenes were teased; so first Spike back at Sugar Cube Corner, then Rainbow with Blossomforth and the rest of the weather team, and then finally Rarity with Timberjack, Timbermac, and Flutterbat. This will complete the corruption of the Mane 6, and then focus can shift back to Starlight vs Eclipse. If you're not afraid, you really should be, Starlight... :unsuresweetie:

I should read the Firefly fics some day.

You’re more than welcome to. Both Nightmare Night and the two Firefly stories are there when you’re ready.

Better to take a break from writing than to write something bad. Do whatever you need to do, now to go read all of your stories while I wait!
