Hey guys! This is a blog just for Taming the storm, talking only about this one story.
I'm trying to pick my writing speed back up while still making side cash, so hopefully things go faster for this story (and the others). But that's not the only thing I'd like to talk about.
As the saying goes, War Work is Hell, folks. I’ve been working extra hours every day this week and probably will do so next week as well, to support a software release for the end of this month that we’re not allowed to let slip. As a result, my writing time has been severely limited and I’ve only generated 3400 words on the new Firefly chapter so far.
In the wake of my latest post, I decided to go ahead and show you all what the second animated character I’ve looked to in preparation for working with the Storm King has been.
That character...being this guy right here:
You know what? Forget next week. I got on a roll, worked all day today and thus completed the next Firefly chapter, which will have undergone all its prereads by Sunday. And that means the chapter can launch tomorrow!
A teaser? Sure, why not. Here's a preview of one of Rock Biter's sections:
Equestrian Army Encampment
Rear Gate
Twelve miles southwest of Maresk, astride the road to Detrot
September 4th, 1139 AC
“Lightning strikes in the sky,
Thunder peals on high,
While we sail the sea of clouds,
There is glory to be won,
Before the setting of the sun,
Let the storm be our call!
Our call!
Let the storm be our call!”
-The first stanza of the Heralds of Lightning shanty “Let the storm be our call.”
...for those that are familiar with "Red Vs. Blue", insofar as that a Tropical Storm named "Beta" is making landfall in "Texas".
Nothing real important today. I just wanted to get that off my mind. ()^_^
For those of you that are down in Texas, stay safe.
A sequel to my most popular story "Stormed Right Into Your Heart" is now currently in the works!
Also you'd think there'd be more SFW Anon/Human x Zipp stories after I posted mine 
.
Welcome new readers! After a painfully slow initial climb, Before the Storm: The Rise of Firefly hit the featured list the last two chapter releases and a slew of new likes, tracks and faves was the result. I'm gratified to see the story gaining traction now, and though it certainly had a rough start as I've had to go back in and make some major fixes to earlier chapters, I'm very happy with it now. This has been my favorite story to work on of late, and I actually wrote the last chapter
It's National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo) . So what's ahead for me?
So I was walking around town when I noticed this imposing scene:
That's a storm headed my way. Looks rather exciting. Although i did notice a strange meteorological feature in one of the clouds.
Do you guys see that orange thing in the storm clouds? It's just an ever present orange thing and I'd like to know what that is.
Any ideas?
Can you feel it? After a near three months of inactivity on this site, it's finally time for me to crawl back from underneath the rock I was sent. There, where I have been working on my stories for the past couple of months (and not having it finished, by the way), have I finally emerged again and I'm ready.
Not a winner, but I had a blast (pictures will be available in a future post), and I made some headway on Turnabout Storm chapter revamps as well. No less than four updated chapters were posted last night, meaning the entire story through Part 37 is now updated. Aside from the usual edits, I added some additional details in several places, including how and why Pinkie is able to do metalwork and regarding how exactly Twilight summoned Phoenix and The Judge originally:
Including a new graphic.
It's going to prereaders, but even once they're finished, I'm not going to release it right away. I'm behind on making graphics, so I'm going to catch up on those first. That way, you'll have some battle maps to go with the new chapter and follow what's going to be a rapidly shifting battle visually. I'm even devising Equestrian and Gryphon unit symbols loosely based on NATO military standards, which you can get a sense of here:
Finished off the last two chapters this past weekend. Part 66 - Revelry, Race and Return had no major changes; just the usual cleanup plus a tweak or clarification here and there. For the most part I was already pretty happy with it, though I did make it a point to update one of the graphics:
To all Turnabout Storm readers:
As of today, the Turnabout Storm novelization belongs to me! RavenRegios has very graciously agreed to pass me ownership as she sadly no longer has time to attend to her stories or fimfiction account. 
My comeback to making posts about inspirations.
Gosh, it feels like it’s been hundreds of years since I’ve made my last one.
Anyway, I’ve been wanting to make another “Inspiration” post for some time, to detail another character that I find myself inspired by in terms of whom I model the Storm King after in terms of personality and motivations, particularly because of his lack of screentime in the 2017 MLP film.
