Gosh. I love looking at the month-blogs before, and checking out what I did then, and how much I've built up on that. Feels good.
(In b4 August where I do shit all)
Anywho, what did I do? Well, Dragon Story was finished off, for a start. I do quite like the finished product, even if it's a bit short, and the characters a bit undeveloped. The idea really came to me from a single picture I made way way back, so I feel it's great that it's now one of my most looked-at stories. As for making another one of those kinds of stories, the ones with a ton of pictures in them? Well, we'll see. It was quite fun to make.
After that in the second-half of the month, I saw another two ideas, and another two fics hit the scene. I'd say if you're looking for a very short story with one interesting core idea behind it, you might as well check out Where is Ponyville? In fact, I'll link it to the blog.
The other story is a little thing called Beyond Lost. It's my favourite of the lot, since I've always been partial to stories with a bit of an eighteenth-century vibe. Hell, I'm probably one of the ten people on this site that actually likes that stuff, but it's so cool! There's a reason I wasted about 600 hours on bloody Empire: Total War, and it's not because I like laggy fort sieges.
As it's my favourite of the bunch, I'm thinking of expanding on the premise a bit further, maybe make a small story out of it. I think one thing I've always been bad at is making a solid-throughout story with multiple chapters.
Talking about such things, I should really get around to Moving Forward (not linking because it's in hiatus) again, but maybe I'll start that when I'm back into the whole '16th century-style Mercantilism' thing again. The story had a pretty simple premise, so it should be easy enough to finish once I get back into it.
As for Request Week? 2nd August, same as always. 5 Pieces.
There's probably some other stuff I missed out, but it probably wasn't very important if I forgot about it, and this is long enough already! As always, brave readers, learn on, and Sgt Hammer is and will always be OP in our hearts. That is all.
(P.S.: Oh, and if you're reading this Princess Maxii, sorry for the crazy wait, I will get it to you soon enough. Let's say within this next week? Promise. )
