    Hey all... been a while, huh?

    Hello everyone! dastrdlyW here. Most of you probably read the first story I had featured on Equestria Daily, Sparkle No More, which was inspired by two pieces of art I saw on DeviantArt. I worked on that story on and off for five years. Mostly off, but still.

    Chapter 9 is up

    The final chapter is up. This is how I've always wanted to end the story, and now it's done.

    I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did writing it.

    Chapter 8 is republished!

    Hello all! Chapter 8 has been fixed and Chapter 9 is undergoing some major work now! I've got a solid ending, now I've got to make everything flow and add on a new scene I've been working on. No promises, but my hope is to have this chapter out by the end of the month at the latest. My hope is to have it done sooner, but with work and school, I don't always have a lot of time.

    THE END IS NEIGH!

    It's official. I've completed the story. I've written out what I believe to be a fitting ending to the story. Loose ends are tied up, I think I've found all continuity errors, and now it's time for the editing.

    Chapters 1-7 updated, removing Chapter 8 for major editing.

    Hello all, Chapters 1-7 of Sparkle No More have undergone some changes, with chapter 6 having undergone major changes. Nothing was changed in the sense of what happens, but mainly how it happens. Chapter 8 I realized has some major problems as well with some things I've added, so chapter 8 is going to be removed for now until I fix it. I don't know how much will be changed of

THE END IS NEIGH! · 4:21pm Mar 3rd, 2016

It's official. I've completed the story. I've written out what I believe to be a fitting ending to the story. Loose ends are tied up, I think I've found all continuity errors, and now it's time for the editing.

If you all had seen the ending I had written two years ago, you'd have hated me. It was bad. I never published it because I wasn't satisfied and I knew if I wasn't, you wouldn't be either. But the time has come. I'm now entering the editing and proofreading and prereading and ALL the reading of this final bit of the story.

I'm not sure if I'll make the ending another chapter or stick it on to chapter 8. What do you guys wanna see? A short final chapter for the ending? Or have it be in chapter 8 (which is still unpublished due to the editing it needed).

And again, thanks you to those who have followed this story. It means a lot to me.

Depends on the word count, but in general I feel like chapter division is good.

3789435 Word count would be about 500 words less than chapter 1 as it stands now. But words may be added to smooth it out once the guy who's been helping me with it takes a look at it.

Time to read this one from start to finish :rainbowwild:

Just make it seperate so it's easier to tell which is the new part.

3791792 Well, at this rate, what's happened with the story, it looks like it's long enough to be it's own chapter. I've added to it significantly. Chapter 8 will be up soon once I know that I like the ending I've got and that the route I'm taking right now with the ending is what I'm doing.
