    Across the generations

    Something happened earlier this week that got me thinking.

    Even though I have all of G4 on my computer and can watch any part of it any time I wish, back on monday on a whim I clicked on the official MLP stream on youtube. I found myself dropped into the middle of Magical Mystery Cure, just before A True True Friend started playing, and I watched through to the end of the episode.

    State of the Author, december 2023

    Here we are. Another year is almost over. The winter solstice is around the corner, along with any number of special holidays. It's a white Christmas in Oslo. The snow came relatively early here this year, falling in November and staying ever since, with every apparent intention to stick it out until spring. And I am sitting at home resting and relaxing, also, until spring.

New chapter of Clover is up! · 10:59pm Jun 3rd, 2014

No warnings for you this time, no blog post status updates along the way. Just a whole new chapter, ready to go by the time you see this message.

The Crisis of Infinite Star Swirls is upon us. Go check it out.

Okay, lemme see. I feel that at this point I can say with some certainty that I have a plan for where the story is going, and that it looks like it will have twelve chapters total when it's done. So that's five chapters left to go. True to Star Swirl form, there is an actual plan going on, with a point to it, even if it looks like complete surreal madness to the conventionally sane bystander.

Now, as you've probably noticed, I'm not the fastest writer on the internet: each chapter takes two to four weeks of work for me, assuming I even know what's going to be in it. Inbetween, I'll have a week when I don't get a single word down. And I have two stories about Star Swirl, which I have been updating more or less alternately, and a slew of other story ideas which occasionally manage to grab my attention for a while. So really, I have no idea how long those five chapters will take me. But still, I am pretty sure that five chapters is it, and no more Big Ideas are going to show up and demand extra chapters to accommodate them.

I think I am going to write the next chapter of The Crown of Night next. Everything is some level of probability, nothing is a promise, it is most likely that we will live to speak again later.
