Pointless Random Update: Because I Like Bothering People · 9:53am Mar 25th, 2015
So it turns out that I'm really, really, bad at writing one shots.
At this point T.W.S.H. will probably either end up being four chapters long with somewhere above 20k words of content, or five chapters long with something above what I want to say would be 23k words at that point. It might end up being 25k if I'm not happy with my ability to end of a good note.
It's all speculation at this point, but I'm hoping that I can wrap it up with four chapters and I'm hoping I can keep it below 22k words.
Like I said, I'm really bad at one shots apparently.
Anyway, I just finished a revision of the second chapter and I'm going to push on to a revision of the third after this. I haven't quite finished it yet, but I'm hoping that I'll hit some kind of a stride when I'm revising it and will be able to finish it off with in the next day or so. After that I'll hopefully be able to bash out the fourth chapter in relatively short order and then revise it right after I finish it.
Once I do that I'll put it up for you guys to pre-read, if you're interested, and based on your feedback, if any, I'll either do another revision or go find an editor straight away to help me with the finishing touches. Then, and only then, will this thing finally be ready for publication. Speaking of which, if any of you are editors and if you're interested in working with me then I encourage you to get in touch with me. Even if you aren't interested, don't worry about it, I'll find someone.
I really, really, want to finish this before the season premiere, as to cling onto the precious ignorance that are my headcanons, but even if I can't get it done by then it shouldn't matter too much considering the main character isn't a "mane" character.
Speaking of main characters, writing her makes it really hard not to get attached to her. It's one of the many curses of writing fiction, but at least this time it's an adorable curse.
I don't care how cute she is, I'm still going to swear a lot when I'm trying to find cover art...
Anyways...
