    Help Wanted

    Rather than go into my usual tirade about this that and the other reason for not having been updating, I'm just going to jump right into the meat of this post. This next chapter of "Stay" is one of the most important, and it happens to be the one I am least satisfied with. It is also one of the longest, and one that I have been dreading editing for probably nigh a month now.

    Several computer crashes and one nasty cold later...

    ...I am, theoretically, back online. This last week was rather hectic. First came the plague, which knocked me off of my feet for a few days and set me pretty far behind at work, but on top of that my computer's power supply decided that having a working fan was a thing of the past. Consequently, my computer kept releasing a scent somewhat reminiscent of one most easily replicated by sticking

    It's Happening

    Just submitted my next story for moderation. The story is divided into three arcs, and I'll be releasing the first arc over the next few weeks since it is already finished. Hope you all enjoy!

A Blizzard is Coming... · 3:57am Sep 18th, 2013

I was being quite honest when I voiced my frustration with having nothing to show for the time that has passed, and have been working quite a bit on hastening the release of "In Swept a Blizzard." During a night of rampant insomnia, I had a flash of inspiration, and the result was the cover art for the story.

As of this post, I have three chapters finished. That may not sound like much, but each one is ~7k words, and the chapter that took me nearly three months to finish is, well, finished. While I would like to have a little more finished before releasing the story (preferably five chapters), the only thing that still needs to be done is a new profile pic to accompany my aforementioned change of user name. Once that is done, the only thing restricting me from releasing the new fic is whatever editing that needs to be done and approval from the mods, which may prove difficult given their strict "no submitting rewrites" policy. However, if I recall the post correctly, there are instances where they can bend the rule, and given that the only similarity between the two are the main characters (and even Cerulean has been tweaked somewhat, though he's still end up being the luckless goofball that he's become known for being), I think I can build a fairly solid case for them to let "Blizzards" pass moderation.

Hang in there, everypony - a blizzard should be coming soon!

NINJA COMMENT OF NINJANESS! Too bad I couldn't give a better critique on how to make the picture better, Ceru.. I have failed you as a pre-reader... :fluttershysad:

Ironically, just hit Spring here in Australia.

Can't wait to read more of your work.

So, been reading your work since Tears was first posted. I can honestly say you're the one author on this site who I have the highest hopes and anticipation for. I love your work. Can't wait for release.

1357217 I completely agree with you. Cerulean is one of the few people that I've seen on here that I could actually see becoming a published author if he wanted to be one.

I've wanted to get into this series for some time now but now that your doing this rewrite I would like to know if I should go ahead and start now or wait until the rewrite is done. Also I would need to know the order that these are in, seeing as there are so many. If anyone could help me here it would be most appreciated.

my body, eyes and imaginative mind are ready! <3

1357335 Okay, here is the chronological order in-story:

Tears in the Snow
The Risks of Braving the Storm
Unplanned Parenthood
Under the Starry Skies
Song of Whispers
Cutie Mark Catastrophes

1357217 1357231 I know that should I write something half as good as Cerulean's work, I'll have come a long way from where I started.

Heh, looks like I was kinda right on my theory as to what that thing was, huh?

Also, I think when it comes to re-writes, they mean taking a story down and then reposting it. Yes, it's a new beginning, but that's the point, it's new. I'm pretty sure you'll be all right posting it.

Soon, hopefully.:twilightsheepish::twilightsheepish:

1357362

I thank you greatly. Now my only concern is whether or not to wait until after the rewrite.

great to hear :twilightsheepish:
your stories are one of the best on fimfiction :coolphoto:

Crimson is still going to be the same as in the original right? Prolly will keep original Whisper in my mind instead of the revised Whisper and not read the revised "Song of Whispers"

*ahem*

I'm still here... And waiting.
