It's been a while, huh? I don't really have much to say on my end, but I figured you guys might enjoy seeing some more speed paintings, as LeStrange has been kind enough to produce some more videos of the artwork that will appear in Exchange's book.
Hey there! It's been a while, so I figured I'd make a post just to let you know the project is still moving along. Currently we're waiting on artwork to be completed. There's a good amount of it— 1 cover + 19 interior illustrations— so it'll be a while yet before we reach the finish line. For those interested, you can find a speed paint of Chapter 1's illustration here.
Hey there, quick question for you guys.
Let's hypothetically say that there'll be a hardcover of Exchange printed which'll include a good amount of interior artwork. Which scenes / events / etc from the story would you like to see illustrated? Please let me know in the comments below, and keep in mind that you don't have to choose just one!
This is a V.I.P. (very important poll) and your response is greatly appreciated!
IMPORTANT UPDATE #1: The cost of the book (including shipping) has been revised down to about $50 with the exception of some potential edge cases. If that influences your decision, please indicate it in a comment below.
First of all, to avoid any confusion, yes, this is one of THOSE posts. If you follow a bunch of people on Fimfic you've more likely than not seen a "leaving the fandom" post every now and then. Well, this one's mine.
Normally I'd prefer to just quietly fade away instead of drawing attention to my departure, but I know there are people out there that were looking forward to Exchange's new side story and the hardcover, and I feel I owe them an explanation.
A new year is upon us, filled to the brim with new possibilities and resolutions. Looking back on '17, it's funny how things ended up. There I was, all excited and ready to jump into my horsewords hobby again, and then a little puppy not even 2 months old suddenly fell into my care. Between pupper and work, my free time evaporated and I wasn't able to accomplish all that I wanted throughout the year.
How did things get this complicated?
My apologies for the long silence! Just wanted to pop in to say that at last, I finally, finally, finally got past all that "real life" stuff that was holding me back from working on my horse books. I'm just waiting for a replacement mechanical keyboard to arrive (an absolute must for typing many words related to pones quickly) and then I'm gonna go ham. Hooray!
Some assorted sundries:
Back when I was an active writer, I'd always look to pictures for inspiration - be it fanart or just shots from the show itself. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but I find that's usually not the case... sometimes you can get 5,000 out of one or more.
>tfw your puppy steals your underwear and hides it and you can never, ever find it again
I think I understand. This is my punishment for writing all those Flutterrape stories, isn't it?
Hey, long time no see!
I figured it would be a good idea to give a quick update on where I'm at with my current projects. I've been quiet for a while because I've recently brought a very young puppy into my home, and looking after and training her is taking up nearly all of my free time. Nevertheless, I do still intend to complete all of the things I've detailed in previous blog posts.
Note: No idea what I'm talking about here? You might want to read the previous post and its associated comments.
Well, it was a productive weekend. I managed to get a lot of the planning for Exchange's new bonus chapter done, as well as figure out how I want to divide the larger chapters for the hardcover version. My initial proposal is below:
Can you believe I just found this?! Exchange's Russian translation, in hardcover!

Hello!
A reader recently brought to my attention the fact that the .epub file that Fimfic outputs for Exchange is improperly formatted and missing huge chunks of several chapters as a result! Apparently this is a common issue with the site's .epub generation and I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused, but I wanted to make other readers aware of a solution I've found to the problem.
