    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.

Firefly update · 7:38pm Jun 23rd, 2020

Well, folks... some time ago I mentioned that there was a project to produce a voice-acted version of the first few chapters of Rise of Firefly. The project is nearing completion, and the first teaser trailer has just been released:

He's put a hell of a lot of work in on this, so give him a like and drop a comment if you can.

As for myself, though I'm working on Nightmare Night at the moment, I haven't forgotten about Firefly. DB's guest chapter is already ten pages long in google docs, and it's looking good so far. And when I resume work?

The next chapter will introduce yet another character not yet heard from: this era's Prince Blueblood, who is part of an unbroken line of Bluebloods to the present day.

To this point, I've depicted the Prince several different ways in my stories, both favorably and unfavorably. In Five Star Service, he was reformed by his experiences with humanity and became their greatest proponent, possessing a sharp wit and an open wallet with no patience for social justice idiocy. In Turnabout Storm, he was implied to be scheming and selfish, interested only in amassing power and improving his station. In Nightmare Night... well, he got exactly what he deserved. :rainbowwild:

But here in Firefly? I've spoilered the following paragraph in case you don't want to know:

This depiction will be much different than any I've done so far. I do have plans for him, and you'll start getting a sense of him here--cold and cunning and completely unflinching. In time, he'll become a calculating and completely ruthless commander; an utterly implacable foe whom the gryphons do not like facing.

I dropped in a like but no comment. I do not comment on Youtube. So glad to hear it's finally coming! We've been talking about this project for quite some time and learning it's actually going to happen is a huge thing to look forward to! :pinkiehappy:
