We apologise for the continuing inconvenience · 11:53pm Jun 25th, 2014
I am terribly sorry, everyone. While I have been trying to think of making a sequel to the Twilight Child (as well as trying to figure out what to do with In a Name), a whole multitude of problems have cropped up of the last several months, both personal and technological.
On top of these things, my attention span is utterly shot, my writer's block is nearly unbreakable, and worst of all, my computer seems to have declared war on me, to the extent that I can't even go half a week without it crashing, and the local computer repair shop has an opening schedule of "When we feel like it".
Not that I don't have some ideas on where I want to go percolating around in my head, but they're quite resolutely staying there for the moment, which is proving more than a little bit frustrating. So far, all I've got is a small draft of the first half of the first chapter.
The problem is, I'm not really sure where to go from those ideas. Do I want to continue the story onward? And if so, what do I want to do in it? I mean, yes there's continuing on the themes and storylines of the first one, but I don't want to make it exactly the same as the first. For a start, I'd like it to be more original, not just copying the scripts of season three. And possibly less mean toward poor Twilight Twinkle. Maybe let her win once in a while. But beyond that, total absence, save the fact that there's what happened to Diamond Tiara to consider (And oh, do I have some ideas for that!)
And then there's the fact that my brain seems more focused on coming up with ideas about that darn Midnight, rather than Twinkle. (Boy howdy, is it focused on her.)
Again, sorry, but until I get my act together, and more importantly figure out what's wrong with my computer and how to fix it, there might not be any developments in the wonderful world of Twinkle for a while. (The Twinkleverse? Twinkieverse? Should I figure this out now, just in case by some statistical miracle I one day end up with a TVtropes page like all the cool writers?)
But since I'm feeling mildly evil, I can say that when I do get my act together, the sequel will definitely feature one of the worst thing that could ever possibly happen to Twinkle: Twilight Sparkle meeting Twilight Sparkle.
("I've had nightmares that start like this...")
Until then, I suppose.
