Hey pones, another month is upon us! Here's the scoop for what's going down this month:
Second String is officially wrapping up this month! Phil's wild ride from star quarterback to unlikely Equestrian freedom fighter reaches its conclusion. If you haven't checked it out yet, now's the perfect time to catch up and see how this football player turns the tables on the Storm King. Dive into the finale here: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/568432/calling-in-the-second-string
Speaking of conclusions, New Way Home is almost ready to make its jump to Fimfiction. A few final touches, and we'll be all set for launch. Expect to see it popping up sometime soon, maybe taking Second String's place on the weekly schedule. I'm just trying to get a few more chapters stockpiled before it makes the switch, so I don't have to skip any weeks without anything to read.
Quarantine, our vote-driven story about magical pony diseases and unfortunate transformations, is still rolling strong. If you're not voting yet, now's your chance to influence how Elliot's story unfolds. Your votes matter—shape his destiny here: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/568477/quarantine
As for other regulars—Legio IX Hispania and Accidental Sunshine—they're both cruising along nicely. Still a ways from hitting Fimfiction, but updates keep coming.
For Pokémon, Celebi Like Them is first. Quinn's traveled back into the mists of distant history, with no sign of how to get his body back (or how to save his girlfriend) https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-story-celebi-121255137.
Another Day at Unity continues to explore aspects of the Spirits of Change world that were out of scope for the main narrative. Visit strange new locations, meet all kinds of weird Pokémon. available right here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-story-day-at-115556555
On the non-fanfic side, my revisions for Forerunner's Child are complete, the audiobook is complete, and I even have the revised cover image! I'm just waiting on the typesetting and this story will be ready to release. I plan on an announcement soon, so keep an eye out for the blog post. I'm sure there will be free ways to check it out as well--I'm pretty sure Amazon gives me review codes so people can get a free copy of the ebook, and I'd be happy to share them. But I'll talk more about that when the time comes. For now, take a look at the new revised cover!
That's all from me for now. Fingers crossed that we're finally for realties actually completely going to try publishing original fiction. Thanks so much for everyone who helped me get there. I hope when the time comes some of you will be willing to check out my first shot at something original. But until then...
