    Into the Light: Chapter 8 this Weekend!

    HELLO AGAIN.

    I'll cut to the chase. As the title implies, I'm releasing Into the Light: Chapter 8 "Snow and Cinder" this Saturday!

    Yes yes, it's been a while... just about two months to be precise. Insert generic apology for slowness here and a rehash of why these chapters come out so slowly.

Where have I been?
Nothing special to report here! Just same-old same-old. Working on other projects, dealing with the busy time of year at work, and overall juggling other IRL surprises.

I will say, though,that I've had a bit of an epiphany about writing. One I should have had a long time ago. I'm supposed to ENJOY writing, not stress about it. It's national novel writing month, and I tried to do the 50k words writing challenge again with one of my original stories... Only for me to slow to a crawl after a few days. But as soon as I was reminded about Into the Light... Well my excitement came right back and I pumped this little fic out! The reinforces the philosophy I set out to follow with my pony fics, and that is to keep them fun and relaxing. I still hold myself to very high standards, but there's much less pressure in a story as freeform as ITL.

Thank you all so much for your continued support. I've got a renewed energy for project work and horse words is definitely among those projects! I will be working on new chapters for ITL shortly, so I hope you all will continue to support me! I read all your comments and it gives me so much joy seeing people get excited and think about where my stories are going.

For now though... Check out The Canterlot Cookie Caper for your fix of smol princess cuteness and wholesomeness!
