Well, after a year and a month, I've finally finished and released my planned chapters for the Jamming July Jaunt/Amazing August Avalanche.
I don't think I'll be doing something quite like that again, but it was rather helpful with making some much-needed writing progress. I've learned from this. I will be trying to release updates as they're written in the future, but having a to-do list (and an outline!) will be seriously helpful moving forward.
So what's my new itinerary?
So I finally revised Day One Morning, though it ended up taking less change than I expected. I also thought to revise some of the dialogue between Luna and Chrysalis at the end, but now I think it may not need it as badly as I thought. Their exchanges will be more subtle in the future, though.
Oh, but there's more! For all two of you following progress on my planned JJJ event, I have good news!

Now, I shall make preparations for my future endeavors, and also upload some holiday photos later on or tomorrow, depending on how things progress here. Our house hasn't been, well, watched entirely well by my brother, but at least he didn't burn it down so that's good I suppose, right?
Anyways, need to get these things sorted now so speak to you all soon as I can.
Peace out, my loyal minions!

Is the new name for the Jamming July Jaunt. Gotta keep up with the times, and all.

So I realized somewhere along the line that I have a lot of stuff written or half-written that I can finish and edit fairly easily, that I have not published yet. I also realized I really should do that.
That's right tomorrow I make my official pony writing come back after the least three mounts of no stories. You can expect the story out tomorrow along with its pretty unique content. This new story is quite different from all of my other so far and features a character I've never written for before, plus some others of course.
Anyway, not to spoil who one of the main stars will be I can leave you with a hint as to another character who is set to appear!

Yep.
It only took three freaking years, but I have finally finished Of Responsibility's next chapter!
Sorry for not updating the other night folks, but a lightning bolt disabled our internet temporarily. Nasty things, those thunderstorms you american followers of mine have here. You should discipline them better.
But never mind, here's the story of yesterday, so if The Judge and Rustybucket would kindly calm down please, and if Night Mare Moon and Normal and Keam please put down their churros, I'll begin'
This set almost became an Estee story only set. Then I ended up reading one other story, then a second… and then it became a normal review set.
Also, every one of Estee’s stories that I haven’t read yet is 20k+ words long. And I’ve been saying I’d read bookplayer’s Lost Time, Cold in Gardez’s Salvation…
I’m so good at putting off getting stuff read that I’m sure I’ll find fascinating.
Still, there was some good stuff in here.
Today’s stories:
Jim Sterling is a man. And he is quite a man when it comes to video games. Jim Sterling is a YouTuber who does video games on his channel. Oh, you say that isn't interesting? That everyone does that pretty much on YouTube now? Well, you're right, but Jim Sterling has one thing that a lot of those other folks don't have.
He has a stern and nigh unchangeable belief that video games are works of art. And...he's right.
Put on your red and green holiday gear. It's Christmas Time.
Just spent a day at the villa chilling out by the pool. Got a pretty funny video to upload of that event too, providing this shitty tablet will work well enough to let me do so. Also had a surprise visit from the daughter of the woman who married my mom and dad back in 2004 when we came on holiday to America for the first time. Sadly that lady passed away from cancer, but it was lovely to see her daughter, her father, and her stepmom over at our place. We had a nice talk and conversation about
So today my family and I have been visiting a couple of shopping malls in a quest to find a special kind of perfume for my friend's girlfriend. It's been eventful, to be honest. XD

Time Enough For Love will begin tomorrow morning, July 18! Until then, I'll be posting little teasers once per day.
