    Now that Jungle fever is finished I was wondering what everypony would like to see from me next. Here are the choices that are already partially done:

    "Cutie Mark Crusaders Gun carridge operators"

    "Time Forgets" (Sad fic)

    "Game night at the library" (gamer luna sillyness)

    "Stressed out" (Twilight x Chrysalis clop)

    "Earthmother" (Carrot top Alicorn)

    "To make amends" (HIE in equestria but more akin to multi dimensional sliders also a staggering 60k words already finished.)

    Personally I want to scrap the last on the list as it is nowhere near my current quality of work due to it being my idea box when I first started writing. However I leave that vote up to my viewers.

    1 more to go... · 4:35pm

    The next chapter of jungle fever will be the last. To think what was to be a 7k wordish clopfic turned into a 124k word monster just baffles me. I would like to take time to thank everypony for their suggestions, criticism, comments and enthusiasm(yes all 4 of you that read this blog) without you I would have stopped this fic a long time ago and moved on to other things(possibly vorpal pies).

    To think I started this thing in july of last year on a request from a person that never bothered to actually read it.

    Thank you all for making this a enjoyable little adventure.

    Well, balls... · 11:06am

    I need the communities help in making a decision(by community I mean all 3 of you that read this blog). My editor has been MIA since the 14th or so(the next jungle fever chapter has been done since the 12thish) and want to get this chapter out before I start the next one.

    should I

    A:Release the chapter with only half editing

    B: Wait on his return and release it later on

    C:Wait and release chapter 11 and 12 together

    D: Someone here offers help in editing chapter 11

    Unedited means you get my typical "meh" grammar errors but at least a nice fat 14k chapter to read while editing will take a couple more days at the very least. I leave the decision in my readers capable Hooves.

    So.... · 9:19pm

    Shaman Zecora is now canon. Those complaints about Zecora being OP in jungle fever are now invalid, have nice day :p.

    So yeah we had a death in the family. my aunt finally lost her fight with colon cancer(spread to the brain) and now I'm severely strapped for cash hence the reason I am only 9200 words into the next chapter(most of which was done pre- incident). I will probably have it out within the first 10ish days of December with an epic confrontation chapter to follow(action chapters are so easy to write). The current chapter may be delayed further by me sending this to a certain person that said they would edit(of which they will get full credit and a link to their page for doing so at the end of said chapter.)

    My less than fabulous grammar has been a thorn to some readers (story is fine but grammar not so much) and I decided it was high time to get help. As for other fics I started to write(Cutie Mark Crusaders gun carriage operators for example) have been put on indefinite hiatus until my current fic is done. Next fic in line will most likely be "Stalkerloo: Solid Chicken" or "Game night at the library" followed by older works (Making Amends which is a HIE is started by never published*tentative title and my take on the "children of the night" video.

    my shitty writing aside, have happy holidays.

    progress report #3 · 2:37pm

    So it's been all of what 3 days since I last updated Jungle Fever? Well good news anyone, I am close to 9k words into the next chapter already. Expect it to be published by mid-end of next week. Also teaser "Sky Admiral Derpy" that is all.

    Progress report #2 · 12:29pm

    Currently 12k words in and (finally) coming to a close on this chapter. Small spoiler the chapter contains practically nothing pertaining to the main plot (That one is only 2700 words or so in ATM). Anyways expect the update to be tomorrow morning or so.

    So yeah, 9k words in and I'm not even halfway done with this chapter. This was also made worse by sporadic power outages yesterday when sandy, being the evil bitch she is, decided that ruining NY/NJ( hey folks in NJ won't notice a difference ba dum tish) wasn't enough and sent a small part of her towards Ohio. That said I may be looking at a 12k or more word chapter, a whole 3 to 4 times more than the normal size. As for the previous post HIE story I am looking for a few proofreaders to help along with sections of the story that seem , well, terrible. So go ahead and message me about that...all two of you that read this blog that is.

    Update:current chapter is  about 6500 words in and oddly enough the events contained within could have been a whole other fic on its own. ETA about 4ish days at current pace (expect it to be a astonishing 9k words, go me). Also I would like a vote on if I should post my first fic i started writing in the near future. It's over 65k words atm but  being HIE I'm having serious doubts about posting it in light of all the terrible HIE that gets from page as of late.

    For all two of you that read this blog the cat in the previous blog post came out of dental surgery today just fine. He's a bit bitchy that he gets wet food only for the next week but I would rather not risk him getting a dry pebble in that socket.
