Homecoming as a series is a glorious mess. I’ve gone on short bits of fluff, created some … unique ships, twisted the fabric of canon EqG, and even touched on some dark topics.

I’ve had stories that have strayed far from their initial plan (Trials in particular) and some that probably should have been rewritten for clarity (Insurgence springs to mind, as does Forgotten Legacy)

Not a major one, but just for information, about the various arcs of the series rather than specific stories.

Arc One (Love): From Homecoming through Into the Sunset - Senior year of High School through Graduation and into that summer.

So I did a thing. I counted all the words for Arc One of Homecoming (Everything up to but not Including Forgotten Legacy) and it stands at just under 139k words. That is not including any of the Guest Author works or upcoming revisions to Chaos Theory, Into the Sunset, or Ballade. I'm sure when I'm done with those it'll hit 140K+. Homecoming gained close to three thousand words or so in it's revision, as did Wooing.

Couple quick things.

Homecoming, the story, is finished. Homecoming, the continuity, is not. Please do not confuse the two.

Ok, time for a special time, a Q&A with some of the cast of the Homecoming cast. Today we'll be talking with Sunset Shimmer, Twilight Sparkle, Morning Glory, Dawning Dew, and Princess Twilight Sparkle.

Thank you for having us.

So here is my rough idea for the new Homecoming timeline format

Year 0
EqG movies

Year 1
Homecoming
Something that Needed to be Done
Got a Minute?
At Night…
In for a Bit
First Date
Mission of Mercy
Wooing is Sunset Shimmer
Keeping me Warm
Just another Day
Ghosts
Last Night of Winter Break
Raison d’Etre
The Key and the Lock
Reunion*
Cruising
There’s More that’s Out There/Canterlot Holiday
Chaos Theory

Year Two -
Lunches*
Pig in a Poke
Into the Sunset

Homecoming is getting massive and it can be intimidating when you look at the timeline.

But there is a shortcut you can follow and get the major points and not have to muddle through all the fluffy one shots that serve as character developments, world building, or just cute.

The order I reccommend is:

Homecoming
The Wooing of Sunset Shimmer

I received a new cover for the titular story of my main continuity tonight as a gracious gift and would like your opinions on it.

Also, some of you may have noticed - or not, I know how busy people are - that the diverse links in both Comparing Notes and Chaos Theory are either not working or wonky in other ways. I’m hoping to have that fixed by the weekend...hopefully. If you notice any other wonky things in my stories please let me know. Preferably via DM.

Well, as is my usual fashion for March, I’ll be taking off for a while to rest and recharge and hopefully get some work done on original stories if I do any writing at all.

So if any of you want to expand any of the universes, feel free to submit. I’ll still be hopping on to keep up on comments and such, just no story progression with the exception of my contribution to SunLight Sliders II...in just a few days.

Ok, so a lot of people I spend an inordinate amount of time talking with do this and I’m going to give this a try. I’m not used to doing retrospectives, so bear with me here. I’ll be keeping this retrospective to the major stories more than the one-shots.

Homecoming.

Well, after suggesting - and getting permission from Novel Idea - a slight tangent to the multiverse, there is going to be a bit of reality breakage in Entropy. If you want to know more about just what I mean, read SunLight Sliders.

But beyond that, Tabula Rasa will end in the next chapter. They’ve recovered what memories they could and made it out of her dreamscape. Luna has confessed and now it’s come to a Twilight to decide how she feels.

I finally managed to get a good forty minutes of private time to finish putting in the links to all the new stories in the Homecoming Timeline. I went to do the same for the home page, but I think I'm just going to put links to the timeline posts for all my continuities.

Thoughts on that, anypony?

Oh, TIMELINE

I haven't come up with a way to title the books.

I'm ready to compile and format Homecoming era stories, but what to call the anthology?

This is what happens when a story and a continuity share a name.

A follower of mine has this as the description for Homecoming and why it earned a place on their shelf:

So, this video led me to the story by Imploding Colon and I loved it.

I kind of wonder what it would like like if Chaos Theory or Forgotten Legacy was made one of these.

What would be a good song for them?

So, with Homecoming being done, and Wooing edits underway, I'm going to format them for digital printing them over the weekends, and to that end, I need to start finding a proper cover piece for the work.

I put out a call on Fiverr and most of my replies were...less than stellar. So I'm going to cast the line out to you all. If you know somepony that could work up an art piece that is appropriate for the Homecoming timeline, I'd really appreciate it.

Homecoming updates are, for the most part, complete. I may go in and tweak another few things over the weekend, but I think I've done all I can.

So, what do you all think? Do you like the changes, the additions and alterations? Let me know! Next up on the revision list are At Night, In For A Bit, Mission of Mercy, and Wooing.

I'm also going to do work for Insurgence tonight. Should be a nice relaxing night.

See you all on the flip side!

Because i, getting ready to throw my hat in the ring for the FlutterDash Contest #4 and I still havent heard about the others I am in. Plus revisions, two chapters left in On the Inside and ramping some tensions in Insurgence in xconjunction with moving (tonight is the last night in my old place, :( #notsad).

So Homecoming is the last chapter needing revisions and of course, it is the most difficult so far. So much to set up for and expand on, ten months of nearly daily updates or new flash fictions that I started seeding for in this story. It's been like a walk through memories the last couple weeks. You all liking the updates?

I just did editing on the chapter where the SciSet actually admits to each other. It's not the final version, but I can't think of much else to do outside of maybe a little more expansion of the talk with Cadence and a little more interaction with the family at the beginning. I'll let you familiar with the old version give your thoughts. Dave_Bryant, BlackWater, IndigoMoon, Wolfkin, BenRG, MySisterBroughtMeHere, and AJtheRaven, I'd be particularly interested in your thoughts before I move on.
