Impending Awesome Inbound · 4:14am Jan 22nd, 2013
Ladies and gentlemen,
As of not some ten minutes ago, I have finally completed a rough draft of the next installment of the Journey of Graves!
Now before anyone spontaneously combusts from happiness, I need to clarify that this is, as I said, a rough draft. In reaching the end, various problems with previous sections come to light, which require significant adjustments for the right themes to develop, for continuity to remain, and for the story to generally flow as it should. This process will take some time, but it should be faster than the initial writing process, since ideas have somewhat crystalized by this point. As such, I'm hoping to begin posting some time at the beginning of February.
Thank you all so much for your patience. I'm working hard to write the best possible story so that The Journey may continue in traditional, glorious fashion. I'll give a more solid release date post as the time draws near so until then, thanks a bunch for reading, and hope to see you back soon!
Sincerely,
GentlemanJ
*yay*
EDIT: DAMN YOU DAEMON SCUM! FIRST POST IS MINE BY RIGHT!
Fantastic! I still kind of exploded in happiness though...
Sorry for the mess.
YAyyyyyyyyyyyyy
EDIT: jesus 4 comments in a minute, jeese and I thought I was fast!
Thanks for the update GJ, this makes this weekend even better than it was knowing that progress has happened and the publishing is ever closer.
AWWWWWW YEAAAAAAHHHH

We love you so.
Yay for the rough draft, Double-Yay for fixing design-errors before publishing any. I think this calls for a different flutterquote:

WOOOOO!!!!!! YEAHHHHH WOOOO CAN'T WAIT.....but i shall, greatness can not be rushed
Huzzah!
February sounds like a great month.
AWW YEAH!
Also: that was pretty fast, nicely done.
But still, the entire first draft? That's quite a bit! Only a few more drafts, and then we'll be reading the final draft! We can be patient, and thank you VERY much for the update! That's awesome!
YEAH! An update within the next 3 weeks!
Sadly, the happiness will be replaced with much sadness at the events following Graves' unhappy decision to resume his duties away from Ponyville.
Considering I have a metric-crap tonne of work to do and should be working instead of reading fanfiction, I will happily wait for February. I also don't want to explode.
I shall attempt to contain the happy-splosion for now.
.........
I failed. I guess that just means i'll have to explode twice when it actually comes out. happiness hurts.
...And now I need to change my pants.
Ok, just ended reading all of the previous Journey Of Graves.
NEW ONE!
Thinking "Shit, why i has to end like that" , And suddenly
Looking forward to it so keep up the good job!
You. Are. GOD!
YES!
*Flails arms wildly* WOOO! Oh wait, there's more. Hmm, I await the procession of coming events, live long and prosper sir.
I'll be honest here, I thought you were done with the series and just wanted to end it abruptly :o The ending kind of broke my heart, but I think I like this idea better :3
