    The New Plan for 2024

    Hey, all!

    So, Royal Equestria Cavalry will be wrapping up in April, with just ~4 chapters left to go (and maybe an epilogue, we'll see).

    Next up, thanks to some recent rebinging of a certain sci-fi classic, is going to be:

    Roadmap Update

    Whew! Well, Cyberpony: 1077 ran a little overlong thanks to me sucking at sticking to the chapter layouts and pacing I start out with. It's certainly a chronic issue I have :( (side-eye's Legacies :trixieshiftright:) But, it is concluded, and so now we shall move on to the next story on the docket: Royal Equestrian Cavalry: Blood and Honor.

    Milestones

    Tomorrow marks 9 years and almost 2 million words for me on FimFiction!

    Wow...

    That's, like, 2 Harry Potter series worth of writing on this site. If I'd invested that time writing "real" stories, I might have become a world-famous author by now!

    Meh. Who needs that kind of pressure in their life?

    Back to torturing tiny technicolor horses for my and your amusement!

Upcoming Alterations · 6:10am Jul 11th, 2016

Just a little heads-up to those following Legacies: the next chapter will herald what I'm pretty sure is the halfway point. As such, I'm taking this as a good time to conduct my first revision of the story up to this point. There shouldn't be any sort of sweeping changes or anything like that. Most of it will be fixing spelling and grammar errors that I've noticed that slipped through my initial proof-read. I'm sure I'll manage to still miss quite a few this time as well, but whatever...

I am also going to be consolidating chapters during this time. Some of them feel too much like excerpts rather than real chapters, and so I'm going to fix that by merging them with their neighbors and/or expanding them as necessary to make them feel more complete and relevant to the overall story. So, expect to see some chapter name's getting altered and chapters 'disappearing' as they get absorbed by one another. Once again, nothing is really changing as far as plot elements; so don't feel compelled to reread anything. If I end up adding anything that's very new to the story (unlikely) I'll make another post that calls out those chapters.

I'm getting everything together offline so that I can just basically cut and paste everything in one sweeping edit so that chapters aren't left bouncing around over the course of a couple months. Ideally, you'll just show up one day and everything will be done and over with and the story can continue as usual.

I can't put an exact date on when this will happen, but I'm shooting for the first half of August. About the time I post the next chapter.

It needs to be done, I'm afraid, if I'm to be satisfied with this piece. Fear not about delays! Truth be told, I am about 3 chapters ahead where the writing is concerned. I'm holding off on batch uploads so that I can maintain a consistent posting rate. I should be able to maintain two chapters a months for the foreseeable future.
