MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY HOLIDAYS · 2:58am Dec 26th, 2014
As another Christmas season starts to wind down, I hope everyone has had a wonderful and joy-filled day. Christmas. I time of (what I hope, anyway) love, family, friendship, and coming together for food, and for others, booze. However you guys have spent it, I hope it was great. Me, I cannot tell you how much I am actually starting to get sick of hearing "Last Christmas". Yet every year, I find myself going back to it. 
Merry Christmas!
That out of the way, just a little thing to look out for... new TBATS chapter. Since I'm pretty sure my editors are gonna be with family right now, I'm not gonna bother them. I think, emphasis on think, that I can do it myself if I go through it slowly. It turned out longer than expected, but apparently that's how it came out. For the next day or two (I have work in the afternoon and night), I'll be looking it over and have it out to you guys really really really soon as well as more chapters to follow. Now that finals that I stressed for that thankfully resulted in all A's in my classes for the semester are done, and with Christmas almost over, I've got time.
To show I'm not bluffing, here's another peek.
He was regretting it.
As a prince, Blueblood learned that composure was essential when in public, and he made it a point to carry himself with a confidence and pride that sometimes bordered on the egotistical side, but nonetheless commanded an essence of importance and respect. Right now, he was one more bad roll away from blowing his top and bursting into an inferno of flames. He set his eyes on the end of the lane, bowling ball in his hoof, and tried to picture the pins falling over after meeting a horrendous blow from the ball. “I will end you,” he whispered with all the venom of ten cobras at the pins like they could hear him.
A few feet away, Cadance and Stardust sat at a small table by the ball-return machine trying their best not to show any signs of enjoyment at watching Blueblood’s sanity slowly drift away. They watched as Blueblood took a breath, and they swore they could hear the hairs of his mane spring out of place. He strode to the lane and rolled the ball. At first it was on a straight-line path down the lane and Blueblood’s hopes soared. He was all smiles until he saw the ball veer to the left, at first slightly, and then completely to the left. His heart sunk like the ball into the gutter. The pins were reset and his ball was spat into the rack next to Stardust’s and Cadance’s.
Stardust scribbled a “0” on the scoresheet: one of the many that lined Blueblood’s row. “Well look on the upside, ya made a perfect score.”
Smaller than the last peek, I know, but I don't want to give too much away when I'm this close to having it out.
So, happy holidays and Merry Christmas to all.
Small idea though, what would you saw about a story revolving around Hearts & Hooves, and the Mane 6 and Spike all having dates (set in the future) but each date goes wrong?
Thanks for the status update. I was just wondering when we might be getting a new chapter. As for your other story idea I think it sounds like a good idea and would probably read it.
