Assumptions XI: The-one-that-nearly-broke-me post-chapter notes · 12:26am Mar 10th, 2012

Dear Reader,

I apologize for the three-week gap, but with life catching up with me, I've had very little time to work on this chapter. Now, I may have finished a chapter of "Demise" (which, I think most of you won't like, since it's a tad sad), and devoted around 45 minutes every night to doodling ponies. I'm improving, very, very slowly, and have been at it for a week. Nevertheless, Here's the story you've all been waiting for.

Wow, what a week that was.

Thanks everyone for the comments on the last chapter.

Anyway, have some trivia:

I called Cheerilee's mouse Mickey. I truly have no imagination. Why a mouse? I really don't know, but I mentioned it elsewhere.

In two weeks, I managed to write one new paragraph of Demise. YAY!

I wanted to join the Write off, but I haven't the time nor any ideas. But I'll definitely check out the results. And so should you!

This chapter took me too long to write. Initially, I had how to continue this chapter, especially since the first scene and the last paragraph are essentially the most important things. Otherwise, it's a bit of a filler, really.

Anyway, onto notes:

Assumption VIII: Post chaper notes · 12:27am Jan 22nd, 2012

I have already expressed my wish to stay true to canon, as much as possible. Which might mean no happy ending for FlutterMac. I'll also be in the middle of a rather busy time now (moving my stuff from place X to my parents' place, the going skiing next week, and then moving to a new place. This might sound trivial, but the whole operation covers three countries, and skiing with my fanatical uncles (ski-till-you-drop) is no picnic. Yeah I know. First world problems. So while I'll do everything I

Assumptions Chapter VII: Post Chapter Notes · 2:20am Jan 15th, 2012

Did you know:
I wish I was a way better writer. That walk that Dash and Caramel took could have been the most romantic vision ever in the hands of a skilled artist/writer. I imagined a winter date in Paris when I was writing it, to be honest.
There was a time I felt really bad for making Caramel straight, since he’s become a bit of a mascot for the colt-cuddlers out there. So yeah, I made his big brother into one.

Author’s notes: Assumptions VI: Try To Hide It · 11:55pm Jan 7th, 2012

Did you know?
The newest episode destroyed my headcanon regarding the Granny Smith story I was working on. Oh well, only three chapters down the drain, but I think the concept is still salvageable…
I feel kind of bad for making Rarity so manipulative, but she has proven herself to be capable of manipulation and refusing to suffer fools…
Zecora will turn up again in the last chapter…

Assumptions IV and V: Post-Chapter Ramblings · 11:11pm Dec 25th, 2011

Did you know…?

… my X-Mas was quite good…

… this fandom is starting to make me feel old, even if I’m not that old…

… Chapter IV was quite difficult to write, as it’s an insertion into an established story arc…

… writing Cutie Mark Crusaders was difficult, their antics don’t really fit this story, but they were quite useful nonetheless…

… Caramel’s siblings will probably make an appearance in Chapter VII (X-Mas Chapter)…

Assumptions III: Post-Chapter III Blog post · 7:53am Dec 18th, 2011

Thanks again for sticking with me. Have a blog post!
Did you know?
… the story starts branching out here. I decided to sneak in a bit more drama, and twisting fanon as much as I can (don’t worry, I don’t believe half of it myself).
… also, don’t worry, the subplots will keep on intertwining, although Rainbow Dash and Caramel will receive most attention…

Assumptions Chapter II: Post-chapter ramblings and preview for chapter III · 8:33am Dec 9th, 2011

Did you know?
… the rumor that Big Mac mentioned (about him and AJ being Apple Bloom’s parents) was originally written so that Apple Bloom was born after directly after AJ returned from Manehattan, but this was vetoed by my proofreader, who called it “sick”…

… halfway through writing chapter 5, I realized that Caramel and Rainbow Dash haven’t introduced themselves properly, so I went and did a quick edit…
