OMG omg omg omg omg omg omg...

Someone did a reading of Curse of the Werepony and I'm told that they intend to do prt 2 as well, i have no idea if they're going to do all of the stories but i am told that part one and two will be done, go check it out

Reading of, Curse of the Werepony

hey everyone, I just wanted to drop a quick message to let you all know that I am currently halfway through chapter 20 right now.  This is seriously a hard one for me to write for numerous reasons so I hope you're willing to be patient with me for a little longer also, I wanted to share something with all of you that is kind of setting the mood for the last part of this story, i hope you all enjoy it as much as I do.

Hey there everyone, I hope things are going better for you than me at the moment.  One of the main reasons that chapters have been coming out slowly and no real art additions is because well, I'm strapped for cash and am having to put in a lot of hours extra at work.  On top of that, my laptop is on it's way out, and...  well lets just say that winter is a hell of a time to wear shoes that are falling apart.  

I hate to burden you guys (and ladies, I haven't forgotten you) with this, and I'm not even sure if it's appropriate to do this on FimFiction (if that's the case, please let me know).  But mostly this is also why I have to ask something I really don't want to....  If any of you have a paypal account and can possibly spare anything that can help me out this month I would dearly appreciate it.  I don't want this to sound like a demand if you can't afford it then please, don't feel bad, I already feel bad enough for asking.  If you want to donate, you can do it through paypal with the email address:  dlazerous(at)hotmail.com  ( replace the at with @)

Earlier today I saw this and squeed like a little girl

Could this comic cover scream Doctor Who any louder?  everything from the Tom Baker scarf (4th doctor) to the weeping angel and the street lamp that looks suspiciously like the TARDIS.  Whoever did this, I love you!

Just a quick not to let everyone know that I am actively working on chapter 19 and hopefully It won't take me as long to get it out this time.  I'm also letting everyone know that after this, there is one more chapter before Hope and Shadows is finished.

Then what you ask?

well here is a schedule of what's to come next:

The Cutie Mark Chronicles Part 2  (unless I can find a better title)

         Toffee, Ruby, Ginger, and Sun Chaser revive the Cutie Mark Crusaders and go about asking the children of the Maine 6 how they got their cutie marks.

Possible Side Story 1:

          Vinyl and Octavia's adventure in bringing Melody into the world.

Possible Side Story 2:

           TBA

(Final story of the Saga of Equestria, no title as of yet)

           The griffin war, the final battle with the Miasma, Return of the Queen, Prophecies, explosions, digging machines and an exorcisim.  yeah, I think I can squeeze all that and a bit more into the last story of the series.

Any other side story I can think of:

            I'm sure there's something I can write about.

That's about it folks, let me hear from you.

Chapter 18 is up and ready, go read now you miserable cretins!

Uhm, I mean, I love and value all of my readers... yeah... that should work.

for those out there with a literary bug there are two possible side stories in this chapter that are up for grabs, just let me know if you want them

I just found out this morning that a very cool person has done a youtube reading of my story "And Tootsie Flute Makes Three"  For me, this is pretty cool and I wanted to share it whith all of you.

"And Tootsie Flute Makes Three"

I think I actually "squeed" when I found it.

Sorry everyone, I think I've done it again.  I'm trying to put so much into this chapter it's making it too long.  I never like a chapter to go over 20 pgs (too much to read at once and DA hates it)  so it looks like I'm going to have to split it into two chapters.  I'm not quite sure how things are going to work out here but I'm sure it'll be for the best, either way, just thought I'd give you all a heads up... Action may be delayed a bit.

OH, also,

My name is Spike Aurora Swift-Strike Filigree, last drake of the Swift-Strike Clan, high protector and knight of the realm, loyal servant to the true rulers of Equestria. Father to murdered children, husband to a murdered wife; and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

I tease because I find it hilarious to watch you all chomp at the bit for the next chapter

I joke, but in all seriousness I try to give you all a taste of what's to come so you know that I haven't forgotten about the story, especially since it's only a fw chapters from ending... or at least this part of the story.  So with that being said, I give you one last tease before i dive back into writing...

Hope and Shadows

Chapter 18  “Demons Run”

By Steven Little

My Little Pony © Hasbro

Demons run when a good stallion goes to war

Shadows will burn beneath the sun,

And all that’s evil shall turn and run

When a good stallion goes to war

Friendship and magic will kill the lies

Night will fall and the dark will rise

When a good stallion goes to war

Demons run but count the cost

The battles won but the child is lost

Life and Death shall bend their will

The damage done and the world lies still

When a good stallion goes to war.

        “Well then, soldier, how goes the day?”  Asked a familiar human woman with curly blond hair.

Hey all, I know you haven't heard from me in a  while but I wanted to let you know I'm still working on the story and just to prove it, I'm giving you a little teaser.

        Spike was free but blinded with rage; his senses desperately searching for his enemies.  Crashing through the door of his cell, he claws gouged fissures into the stone in his mad rampage up the stairs, blood spattering against the walls.  The once peaceful dragon, who's heart only had room for the love of his family and friends had been replaced with a beast of carnage, an echo of his ancestors from a time when the world was not but flesh and teeth.  There used to be an old saying, back when Ponies and Dragons were not on such friendly terms; Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons least you incur there wrath.  That day, many of Blueblood's followers would learn the truth of that saying tenfold.
