Just one more art share: here's a piece I did this weekend to experiment, help push past this slow writing phase, and for the enjoyment of it. It depicts not a scene but a memory from Pride Goeth.

The immeasurably talented Pencils (link warning: content is not sexual but sometimes gets a little racy: Tumblr, Patreon) whom you may know from his comic Anon's Pie Adventure, and if you don't know him and his comic then I urgently request that you check it out, recently posted to his Tumblr about some cheap but good equipment for digital

I just posted the final chapter of Pride Goeth (technically it's not a chapter but an epilogue) and now the story is functionally complete. I'm still going to dig in with some rewriting work, though.

I'm not super up-to-date on how the story update feeds work here on FIMFiction since I'm not a huge reader in general (let alone reader of fanfiction,) so pardon me if you see a flurry of updates to old chapters of Necessary Love. Just some routine editing and cleanup of the story grammatically; no changes of story content.

Honestly though, I don't like editing.

BIG POST WARNING - I'M GOING TO WRITE ABOUT A LOT OF STUFF

Far and away my favorite part of Melancholy Days was the Drypony sequence; that's particularly good news for me since it took up 2/3's of the story. I'm really, really pleased with how it turned out and I thought I'd take a moment and share some of how I created it and what I tried to make it all mean, and so on.

So last night before I went to sleep I uploaded the final chapter of Melancholy Days, bringing to an end the sequel of What Separates. I started chapter 1 nearly a year ago, though the actual writing time can be considered far less. I'd like to take a moment to
