Well, I admit I’m feeling better about Harmonic Resonance now, as the downvote brigades appear to have dried up and it’s been getting a steady trickle of new likes and tracks since. It should easily top 40 likes and 100 tracks before the year’s end, which gives it a decent but not spectacular start. I suspect at this point the main issue in the initial launch was twofold: clop readers want instant gratification, so as an earlier commenter suggested, they tend to be a bit turned off by

Readers will be happy to know that one week after Thanksgiving, I have finally finished most of my leftovers, and what remains will make excellent sandwich fodder. I’ve also got all my Xmas decorations up, making my play to win the neighborhood decorating contest.

Namely, that the next Continuation and Chronicles chapter will be out within a week. Even though I meant to finish the Harmonic Resonance epilogue first, I’ve just been charging through this latest entry at breakneck speed and it’s now likely to be draft complete within a day or two. It’s already at 10k words and likely to be at least 12k by the time it’s released, so you’ll be getting another nice meaty chapter, with severe suspense once again being the theme.

No new Firefly content on September 1st, which was the anniversary of Into the Storm’s 2017 launch (and deliberately chosen for also being the anniversary of the start of WWII). Feels a little odd to not be working on it now, but I’ll get back to it eventually. In the meantime, an update on my other stuff, including Feathered Hearts and Harmonic Resonance:

I've long suspected this song was funky, but I far underestimated how funky! Shout out to the brothers and Blue Weaver!

Well, the Friendship Games movie is coming out this weekend, and I'm going to do my absolute best to have the second chapter out before then. So far, my progress is somewhere in the neighborhood of 50%, give or take 5%. Still, I felt obligated to share with you readers a little sneak preview. I'll be showing the entire first scene of the chapter, approximately 1800 words, and with lots of interesting details coming to light and even more questions being raised. I hope you all enjoy it!

It’s draft complete and already approved of by the Commissioner except for one minor request; I’m just giving myself the chance to finish it and prereaders a chance to hit the chapter before it posts. Next up in the goddess pantheon is everybody’s favorite pony-turned-human girl, and I’m taking a different approach with her.

Over the years, I’ve found there is an inverse relationship between how much I enjoy writing a clopfic, and how much I can write on it in one sitting. Ironically, but perhaps not surprisingly, the more fun it is, the less time I can spend on it for reasons I’m sure everybody can guess. That’s actually a good sign for the story, for when I enjoy writing something, it tends to turn out quite well, even if it ends up being a bit late.

Got it up over 8500 words now, with probably another 5-6k to go. Yep, gonna be another big one, like all the griffon chapters. Among (many) other things, I’m taking pains to touch on everybody else present so you can get an update on what’s going on with them, including the Shadowbolt girls and our illustrious school heads.

And since I mentioned that I’d be using a new narrative device in an earlier blog, I’ll give you a sneak preview of it, told (as always) through Sunset’s point of view:

Hello peeps, so like I have no idea what the buck I'm doing I barely remember the last two days so like first thing I know I'm watching star wars with the dudes then I'm grining ear to ear because I just applied for a job. WTB is going on in my head. But that aside, I met this really cute girl at my place of work (hopefully) usually I'm not one to get nervous over girls but damn! I was nervous. She was realy cute though. Ah HARMONES NO! Lul.

Excerpt From Episode Episode 26 - Coming Tuesday!

Yes, it will be on time!

In the form of not baseball games, but back-to-back releases of both Feathered Hearts: Continuation and Chronicles and the second full chapter of Harmonic Resonance. Yep, you heard right—you'll get both a warfic and a clopfic on Wednesday night. I think that pretty much covers all the bases!

I’ll be honest, folks. I’ve been having a very hard time getting back in the groove for Midnight Rising, as I find I can only do a few hundred words of it per day. I’ve got 4000 words down and there a couple parts I like, but the meat of the scene is just not coming quickly. Reading back over the previous chapter, I was actually impressed at how well it came out, and trying to both continue and surpass it... well, it’s a tall order, doubly so since I have to set the scene for what

With Into the Storm chapter 3-10 in the book (3rd book of magnum opus, 10th chapter), I would like to first welcome new readers and thank returning ones for feedback. The chapter was received very well, and the graphics I made turned out to be very much appreciated and worth it to make. I'll post one of them here in hopes of enticing more folks to read Firefly.

And another 15k words down on Harmonic Resonance between the final two chapters, with another 3500 down on Feathered Hearts. I’ve been a busy boi, but neither is near ready for release. It’s possible at this point that the last Harmonic Resonance ascension chapter will have to be split again and end up being a three-parter, but we’ll see what shape it’s in as I get closer to done with it.

We’ll start with Harmonic Resonance first. In short, I’m making it official: The climactic Twilight chapter of Harmonic Resonance is being broken up again, as it will take a three-parter to complete and do justice. I expect the chapter draft of part 2 to be finished within the next day, so you can expect at least a 9k chapter sometime in the next week. How fast it’s out will depend on how fast I can get feedback from prereaders and the commissioner back on it.

I have to say, folks... I’ve been very happy with how the last two chapters have been received. There’s been tons of positive feedback, and I’ve picked up a slew of new likes and watches. So why not keep working on it? The next chapter will be draft complete and off to prereaders today. After that, it’s a new chapter of Eros I’ll aim for next weekend, and then I’m back to working on the next chapter of Harmonic Resonance.

With the massive double-length chapter of Eros released and seemingly well-received, and the next Continuation and Chronicles chapter now draft complete and currently scheduled for release on Sunday morning, I just wanted to let folks know what’s upcoming for the Feathered Hearts main story. Some very general spoilers for future content follow, so if you don’t want to see it, don’t read past the jump.

Next chapter of C&C
