    Where I've Been

    So, I've been taking writing really seriously over the past year. I got 15,000 words out of NaNoWriMo; not bad for a busy month running science festivals. I finished the manuscript in June, sold my retro game systems the funds for self-publishing e-books, and joined a forum thread on one of my boards to write 500 words a night. I was feeling pretty good, especially considering I'm finally a

    Hooves Holding Hearts contest

    So, working on the next chapter. No one reading the last one got the hints about the new kid, who is the story's main kid. I'll give these out, and the first person (and maybe a few others) who get it right will earn a small OC cameo in HHH.

    Now, the kid's an OC...but the mother is not.

    Here are the first few hints.

    Hooves Holding Hearts Edit

    So, I changed a scene in chapter four. I changed it because it didn't work, and others complained with a reasonable point.

    It happens near the end of the chapter.

    Spoilers ahead.

    I mean, really spoilers.

    If you haven;t read the chapter, it kind of ruins the punch to know this...

    Ready.



    So, when John is confronting the father....

    What the pre-readers are saying...

    Just so you know, here's some comments on the Hooves Holding Hearts chapter that drops this week.

    "She had a really miserable childhood, didn't she?"

    "Holy freaking s***! Nevermind Jazz, you are not worst parent anymore!"

    "This is both heartwarming and utterly heartbreaking at the same time. You magnificent bastard."

    Story Progress!

    Chapter four of Hooves Holding Hearts is off to the pre-readers! I'm going to try to get a C&D chapter done next, I think. I'm having to split time between pony writing and writing things I actually intend to e-publish for money, but I intend to finish the crop of stories I have, maybe saving a week in summer to write "Doctor Whooves and the Mare in the Moon."

TARDIS landing soon! · 3:50pm Mar 13th, 2012

Now that I'm putting School Daze to bed, I'm going back to 'The Three Hooves' this week. Chapter three is at 2,458 words, so it should only take me until Sunday to get the holes patched.

So, as a present to my long-suffering readers...

Chapter Three: The Edge of Destruction

A happier time, just outside the magical land of Equestria

The doors of the TARDIS flung open as the teen pegasus slammed through. She dropped her groaning baggage before veering off to the side, narrowly missing the console controls. Having been unceremonious deposited on the floor, the brown Time Charger masquerading as an earth pony flicked a small device out of his trench coat. Aiming unsteadily at the doors, they shut just as a large crowd of faceless white things lunged at the opening.

Ditzy pulled herself out of the heap she landed in. Scuffed up, out of breath, and narrow having escaped death, the young mare started flying in circles. “That was AWESOME, Doctor! Can we go back?”

The pony that would one day be called ‘John Smith’ shook his head. “Those dress dolls want to use us as accessories, Miss Doo. It’s better to let the explosives take their course.”

A nervous look crossed his companion’s face. “If they’re still out there, does that mean Madame Rarity is alfalfa orange gutter ball?”

The Doctor smiled and pretended not to hear the aphasic slip. She’s cute when she’s worried.

THREE HOOVES CHAPTER THREE, COMING SOON!

Consarnit, "The Three Hooves" or "The Three Whooves"? And I don't see how a prologue leads to a second and a third chapter; shouldn't it be followed by a first and a second?

31190 Its all very "Timey wimey and spacy wasey". :derpytongue2:

This is why I need you, Cerulean.
