Order of Spring (and Vent) · 1:24pm Jul 8th, 2016
To prevent confusion down the line, I've changed the setting name (as given on the title page of Twilight's Secret Journal) from Rise of Spring to Order of Spring. I can imagine ponies trying to tag it both ways on images, and that would be needlessly wat.
**FWOOMP**
In other news, I'm at BronyCon and I spent four hours last night writing the first genuinely clop-only chapter in the story so far. It was beautiful. It was touching. It was hilariously amusing. It was very sexy. It was disturbing. In essence, it was everything clop should be.
I made the mistake of composing it inside of FF's composer, and I completed the entire many-thousand-words chapter before pressing the Save button.
Then Marriott's internet service decided to give me a pop-up. If I'd thought about it, I might have been able to use the debugger to inspect the field, but I was doomed. I lost every single word.
It will take more than four hours to replicate the work perfectly, and that probably won't happen until after BronyCon.
At least it was a fun chapter to write.
I recognize the WonderTwi pic because I asked the question on tumblr!
4 hours of Straight up writing lost? That is why I use Gdocks, Autosave with every word.
Textarea Cache extension for me, though I feel awkward mentioning it as though it were a cruel joke even though it's not intended that way at all.
“Oh, what have I done?! What have I done, I'm so sorry, I threw—oh, disaster.”
Bummer.
Now I'm really anticipating this chapter!

I usually do, but it was a quick & dirty edit while I was "in the zone".
