In case you already noticed, I moved my two current active stories, "The Same Mistake" and "For Sonnets and Harmony" into a Hiatus state.
In case you already noticed, I moved my two current active stories, "The Same Mistake" and "For Sonnets and Harmony" into a Hiatus state.
So, quick story to start. I was coming back from my semi-job interview today, for my third job, and I was stopped by my professor. He smiled and asked how I was doing, me currently holding two monsters and a cup of coffee. I proceeded to tell him everything I accomplished the past 48 hours, then followed by saying I would need twice that to get half way through the remainder of my work. He smiled and said, "I'm glad to see you're growing up Kevin."
VERY SPECIAL REASONS
Well, surprise surprise. There were two stand out winners for the voting in terms of the song. Kind of glad for what won and REALLY glad that I asked the question the way I did, seeing as the song I had originally was the one with Kamina, the one my pre-reader shot down like the duckhunt dog. So who were the winners you ask? I think the comments say it rather easily, but I'll make it clear here.
Well, I was half surprised, which is fitting considering the winners. For those of you who don't know, I tally the points by those who vote, then by those who up-vote them, because not everyone comments but up-voting is almost synonymous for voting in favor of. In fact, that's exactly what it means. However, if someone says two options, I count points for both favors without extra tallies. Can't have two presidents and all that.
Not as ominous as it sounds, I promise.
This is only the notice that the next chapter of For Sonnets and Harmony, coming on Monday, will be the chapter that officially kicks off the final arc of the story. Confused what I meant by arcs? Well let me break it down for you.
Quick update on the next chapters of For Sonnets and Harmony as well as TSM. I've got the chapters ALMOST done, minus the editing, but it's highly unlikely that I'll finish them in time for my editors to look over them before Christmas, like I had originally planned. So sorry about that!
So... maybe you can think of them as New Year's Gifts? IDK, they are extra long and detailed, making sure that I keep everything as enjoyable as the first chapters.
That's all, for now. Merry Christmas!
The Apple Family Violist, Fiddlesticks!
Close in the beginning, but with so many votes in the middle for Fiddle Sticks, it swung towards her with significant margin! Only other pony to get nominated was Discord... but that was like an independent running the presidential primaries. Never goes anywhere.
Total Tally's are below:
Drifter: IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII IIIII
Not really much of a surprise, actually. Read the first 20 comments and you know EXACTLY who was going to sweep in this poll!
Scoring goes as below.
Luna: 24
Twilight: 4
Vinyl: 4
Celestia: 1
Cadance: 3
Discord: 2
Well, it took me a long time, with the school starting up and working remaining the same, but I was finally able to track a four day lull in the comments, so I tallied them up and got some surprising results. I know now who is going to be the new teacher for Octy and her wings, but I have to say, the pale horse almost took this one, almost.
The new teachers are....
After carefully tallying up all the votes together and recounting because there were literally over 150 votes (I loved you guys), the magic teacher of one Octavia Harmonica has been decided. That pony will be....
TWO PONIES!!!
The final tallies are as shown below:
