    Update (Without excuses this time!)

    Guess what? I'm done writing the next chapter of Manifesto.

    I just need to give my prereaders a day or two to look over it, and then it'll go up.

    Until then, here's Despacito being played on a guzheng.

    Hey, everyone.

    I've somehow gotten out of the habit of posting updates. Oops.

    Anyway, you've no doubt noticed that I don't post as often as I once did in the past. This is largely because improvements in my life situation mean I have the wherewithal to engage in hobbies other than writing fanfiction.

    Update.

    Goodness, it's been a while, hasn't it? You're probably wondering why my pace has slowed down on Manifesto. Well, there are several reasons, but the most relevant one is that I find myself rewriting large swaths of this chapter as I zero in on the best plan for Sunset to take. I'm basically going back and forth between two ideas that can't really be combined into a single one, and for

    New Story Incoming

    In case you missed my last blog post, I'm taking a break from the adventures of Celestia and Daring Do to write the next Petriculture story. At this point it looks like it'll be fairly short -- about two chapters long -- and I recently finished up the first chapter, which will be posted once my prereaders give it a final once-over.

Progress report · 1:14pm Jun 10th, 2015

Work on the first chapter of the new Petriculture story is proceeding smoothly. I'm approximately two-thirds of the way done with it, assuming that there's no need for a major revision (so far, my prereaders don't seem to think so). In fact, it's going so much more smoothly than the novel that I'm seriously wondering whether I was, in fact, ready to write that particular story.

In any case, thanks to my Patreon patrons for providing the financial incentive to keep at it.

I'm a bit out of the loop - is it a sequel or a rewrite you're working on? Either way, I'm looking forward to it. :twilightsmile:

So, uh, I guess this quip about Pandelirium

This is the fifth and final story in The Petriculture Cycle.

Is no longer true? Guess I'd better hurry up and read it then.

3136928 - Well, I don't know if it's still applicable. To my mind, those five stories still form a complete narrative (albeit one with an open-ended conclusion), which is what I think of when I hear the phrase "story cycle." Whether this new story turns out to be a one-off sequel or the start of something more remains to be seen.

So I just looked at the original and there are four sequels? Seems "out of the loop" was understatement of the year.

Well, I've got my reading cut out for me. :twilightsheepish:

Niiiiiice.
