    From Hrair to Eternity

    I FINALLY MADE IT, EVERYPONY! :pinkiehappy:

    A good ten years and change after reaching 500 followers, a little bump from participating in the BarCast's finale episode tipped me over the top into four digits. Thanks so much to all the readers who've chosen to keep an eye on my sporadic fic production over the years - expect more of that to come soon...

    Scribbler Signalboost (Update: WELL DONE, ALL! : D )

    This is absolutely reprehensible. I never thought I would regret not having a wider social media presence, but here we are. Any of my followers who haunt Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube, Discords, anywhere ... please spread the word and push for action. Scribbler is a brilliant content creator and a true gem of a person.

    SPOT THE SADDLESOAP: FINAL BRONYCON EDITION

    NOTE: As in past trips to conventions, I will be wearing distinctive Saddlesoap Opera Cutie Mark t-shirts, with the mark printed front and back, when I attend BronyCon in coming days. Keep an eye out for those drama masks, and feel free to come up and say hello!

The Fic is Done! Long Live the Fic! · 7:24am Dec 8th, 2014

Oh my heavens I have completed History Repeats at last! :pinkiehappy:

It's been nearly two years... a fair spell longer than I'd expected to take, to say the least.

I want to express my extreme appreciation to all of my readers, but especially to those of you who came in on the fic early and stayed with me until now. Your monumental patience is deeply, deeply appreciated. I can only hope the conclusion is worth the wait.

It's funny - a lot of the final scenes in this chapter had been sketched out at least a year ago; epic final moments and exciting dialogue and tender moments. All of it sitting on the shelf and waiting its turn while I get the course of events to catch up with them. It feels so good to finally let those words out to play with their friends.

As for the future, my life is slowly becoming less chock-a-block with busy life-demands, and I have a great many other fiction ideas that have been lying fallow while I worked on History Repeats. Most are a little shorter for the sake of my sanity, but I think they will be well-received.

So, to summarize: History Repeats is done, but Saddlesoap Opera is not. :raritywink:

Once again: thank you all for reading. You rock like Maud Pie playing rock music using rocks at RockCon 2015.

Oh, for sure! No way I'd miss a Pony con happening so close to my home turf. ^__^

Gonna give it a read soon. Won't ask about a sequel cause I figure you will get around to it after you get your other tales out of your head and onto the site.

In other words, looking forward to more outta ya! :pinkiehappy:

edit: Read and enjoyed. Of course, ya left it open to potential sequel ideas... Danny and Molly learning that Equestria is real... Discord saying he won't perform any "new" tricks (meaning he has a slew of old options he could tweak the ponies and Megan's nose with).... All sorts of stuff. Again, I know you have other stories in mind, but should you get around to a sequel I will definitely be first in line to read it!

Woo!

The wait for you must have been agonizing; the final battle was absolutely fantastic, having to keep that under wraps for a year? Yikes.

Looking forward to what you do next, in any case.

What are some of these other story ideas you mentioned?^^

You have made me a very happy person today. I'm gonna read these final chapters as soon as I can.

Thanks for the last chapter and the epilog. It was a long time, but it was worth the waiting. Thanks for all :-).
