Progress on the next chapter is going well, but I'm having a hard time finding just the right music to help me write. I need something that pairs well with telling a sad story.

The combat in chapter 35 was...well there were a few minor changes to make. This one was less on combat and more on consequences though.

Didn't change much in chapter 36. A few typos, changed some wording is all.

This chapter is kicking my ass. I'm so close to being done with it. It tells another part of a very familiar story in the MLP universe but from a different perspective. I didn't realize until I got to it, that there are a lot of questions I have. I'm filling them in, coming up with how I imagined things played out and why. I REALLY don't want to rewatch the episodes since I've seen them enough. All in all though, this chapter should be fun! Thanks again for being fans! Chapter should be ready

So, in light of the latest episode, The Mean Six, a couple things come to mind.

Not much to fix here except once again I being way too many sentences with "I did this". I spruced up some descriptions and completely erased entire sentences that were just...kind of awkward. It's nice rereading everything. I knew how it all looked in my head but it doesn't always come across that way, but this is how we learn isn't it? The size of this chapter kept me from editing it for quite some time. So I took tonight and made a thousand words worth of progress here and there and took

Just finished my edits for chapter 5. Added in an extra scene and changed around some wording. I'm starting to notice fewer and fewer mistakes. This chapter didn't have as many past-tense mistakes as usual.

I told myself I'd do three chapters tonight, but the very next chapter was a longer one. For the most part, there was just some clarification and formatting issues. As usual, I found any reason I could to cut down on the "I did this" and "I did that"s.

Last two days my insomnia has been ruining everything. I'll get tired, sleep for a rough four hours, with waking up every 30 minutes for no reason. Then I'll need to get up and do something because life doesn't stop for me, then not sleep until next time while being drained all day. I'm trying to work my second delivery job, but I've seen so tired that driving is risky.

Me before work "I'm gonna work on the next chapter of KOTD!"
Me during work *Edits an old chapter or starts to*

Next day
Me before work "I'm gonna edit an old chapter!"
Me at work *Works on next chapter

Next next day
Me before work "I'm just gonna do some writing!"
Me at work *Cleans up notes*

MAKE UP YOUR MIND BRAIN!

It's done! Finally! I really pushed my writing limits on this chapter! I was describing things with words that are...normally purely visual and auditory. It's new ground for me and I hope it flows well. I'm absolutely exhausted and disappointed it took me so long to get it out. That being said, it was fun and I hope you all enjoy it! Thanks again for your patience! Gonna do some more editing on a few older chapters now, so it will be nice taking a small break from new content.

New chapter's done. Will be posting it tomorrow around 5 as usual. Thank you all so much for your patience! After I post this, I'm gonna spend some time doing some more editing on KOTD.

Don't worry, still working on it. I'm just having issues describing the dancing. I'm waiting for a few prereaders to get back to me on whether it makes sense or not. I've never done this before and trying to explain what someone is doing without being repetitive is a nightmare. Thanks again for your patience!

There wasn't much to edit honestly. I found some better words to use and some awesomer descriptions. This is definitely a chapter that gets me pumped and I don't know why I put off editing it for so long.

Okay so decided to edit chapter 12 another time because...well it's super long. But anyways I got the next chapter ready to go so keep an eye on your feeds tomorrow! Thank you all for being patient! This next chapter's a dousy so do me a solid and leave me some feedback please and thank you!

I know I haven't posted anything in a while, my life got flipped upside down. not gonna bother going into detail, just the next chapter of KOTD that I wanna edit is a big one. I'm saving the next new chapter for when I feel that my beginning chapters are better. I'd like to draw more people in and I'm sure after they got halfway through the tragedy of chapters 1-11, they probably gave up.

Hope you enjoy it!

I keep looking at how many chapters I've edited, vs how many I have to go and it just seems so daunting. I know later chapters will be a lot easier, like 20s or so, but still....

Holy crap there were so many typos! I'm friggin shocked! I thought I had written this when my standards had improved, but apparently not! Maaaan editing 8.8k words takes a while. I'm happier with it though. A lot happier. It looked like it had never had a spellcheck before though, which is weird cause I coulda swore that everything after chapter 20 was put through microsoft's reviewer thing. You see, this was back before I found out that Gdocs spellcheck was awful, and loved to change "its" to

*Cracks neck* sweet lord these long chapters are murder. I mean yes they're long, but I've read them so many damn times, especially this chapter. I had spent a long time trying to make the descriptions short, sweet, meaningful and poetic. I still saw some previous dialogue problems, back when I'd say the body language of who's talking, then put in a comma, followed by the dialogue. Granted this was one of the first scenes I wrote before I had actually began the story. Before chapter 1 was even
