[Audiobook] The End of Ponies - Chapter 19 · 12:04am Jul 15th, 2014

And here we begin the third act of our epic tale: Circle of Kindness. As much as I enjoyed doing those country voices (and I really did, as silly as they got XD), I'm quite ready to leave the orchards behind for a change of pace.

Normally, I'd use part of this description to reference things in future chapters and what's to come based on my experience with the story, but I realized that I should probably stop spoiling it and setting up expectations, and instead allow you all to experience the story as it comes, the way it was meant to be. So from now on, I'm going to stick to talking about past and present stuff in these. I may make vague notes about the current chapters though, so be warned.

It's been a journey getting here, and though there have been road bumps aplenty, I'm feeling freshly excited again for what's to come. Mostly though, I'm particularly thankful for all you who have listened and helped me get this far. My commitment was to keep going so long as people wanted to listen, but you guys have gone above and beyond that by encouraging me as I've grown and improved at the craft, and just hearing your enjoyment of the story itself.

In particular, I want to thank my editor, tikitree, for all the work he put into keeping things moving forward, and continuously surprising me with his willingness to jump in and do the dirty work. Honestly, without you, I don't think I could have kept pushing on and enjoying this as much as I have.

Lastly, I wanted to offer an apology for all the times I seem to get down on myself and my abilities, as I've realized it probably comes across as fishing for compliments. When I say I don't believe I'm THAT good, it's not out of humility, but rather an honest admittance to knowing how much better "good" can actually be. I listen to and strive to be like those who do this professionally, and have the equipment and the know-how to make some really great stuff. I know I'm not there yet, but at the same time that's where I'm aiming to be. Every new chapter I find I'm more and more please with, but I really hope by the end of this that I'm doing even better =) Still, I'll try to stick to good old fashioned "thanks" from now on hehe...

And with that, this super long description has come to and end. Chapter 20 is with my awesome editor, and I'll be recording 21 soon, hopefully in time to trade off with him. Until next time, enjoy! :D

P.S.
Changing the way I title these blogs, for reasons that I feel are fairly obvious ;)
