December Monthly Schedule / Winter Finale / Contest Winner Announcement (Bottom) / WInter Break (Bottom) · 6:29pm Dec 3rd, 2019
Hello everypony. This month already started in a rush. I'm sorry for not posting this two days ago, things just really hit the fan over here. Anyway, this month we will have another tidbit and another chapter. This chapter will be the winter finale so it will be a big one. If you recall from last season my last winter finale was just over 9k and covered a lot of stuff, from Blood Diamond's introduction, the flashback to the first moment Twilight and Starlight went through in this timeline and so much more. So yes this season winter finale will be just as big, a small preview of that is that this month's chapter will cover Platinum's birth, her relationship with her guard, connections to a greater mystery that will arc this entire season with the next and so much more.

Well, as many of you might have realized the winter contest winner was a near landside victory by the choice: Near Dark Ascension. This shouldn't have been a surprise to me since this was the biggest point in last season's Summer Finale. So I asked CountessMRose to handle the piece. While she isn't the fastest artist I can call on, I can certainly depend on her to get the work done. Plus I decided to make this piece into a comic strip. This is due to how packed this scene is. Easily one of my most details scenes ever, so I need the good size to get the work done.
Now this commission is a winter commission so expect it at the latest of February. I'm asking for this time range since both times I asked artists to complete something in December it doesn't always get completed right away. Hopefully this better amount of time should fix that.
Also, not a confirmation yet, but if I do have some money left over after paying her I will put to a secret commission to be revealed sometime in January or just before the Spring Premiere.
Speaking of the Spring Premiere, like last year I will be putting the story on a hiatus. This winter break will not be as long as the last one. This time it will only last a single month. So new chapters will start back up in February. This was due to how short last summer was for me and how rushed that made me feel. Winter tends to a bit easier on me anyway.
