    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.

    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

Nightmare Night Chapter 33 launches tonight · 2:15pm Oct 5th, 2020

Titled "Command Corruption", it's become a doozie, in the immortal words of Pinkie Pie :pinkiegasp:, and once again borrows heavily on AJ_Aficionado's too-good-not-to-use thestral lore as the Canterlot Castle Command Center is corrupted and converted, with all the M-rated action it implies.

The chapter currently contains two major scenes, though I'm considering bumping the second one to the next chapter as 1) we're already near 10,000 words and 2) the first scene is, to both me and AJA, more powerful, leaving the second one potentially anticlimactic. Without it, we'd still be approaching 7000 words long but it would let the stronger scene have the spotlight to itself. I'll make the decision by tonight.

It's also worth noting that I'm introducing two prereader/coauthor OCs to each other in this chapter--Lady Delta Requiem and High Priestess Juniper Neptune. The former belongs to Leo Archon, and the latter to AJA. At the suggestion of the former, some interesting backstory will be hinted at between the two!

If I bump the second scene, that just means the next chapter will follow in a matter of days to close out the Canterlot action. It will have a... suitable scene and ending, and even a sacrifice of sorts as Luna tests herself against the temptations she succumbed to in the past, and gets pushed to the very edge of it again. But before that? Enjoy the coming chapter, which should have something for everyone! :rainbowwild:
