    Prereader verdict on new Midnight Rising chapter is in...

    And unfortunately, that verdict is unanimous:

    Complaints were: too meta, hard to follow, does nothing to advance the plot, and potentially makes things worse while trying to fix them.

    Still waiting on Midnight Rising prereads...

    Which are particularly important this time, because the first preread I got back was negative. As it came from AJ_Aficionado, whose opinions I particularly value mostly because he’s more interested in the story than the sex, I tend to give what he said about it credence but still want to hear from everyone else before I start making changes to the new chapter.

    Mind changed on removing the griffon arc from Midnight Rising + teaser

    After receiving pleas from multiple readers to keep the Enter the Griffon chapters in place, I have decided to do so and go with my original plan, which was to simply offer new readers the chance

    One final thing...

    I have been advised by no less an authority than CHS acting Vice-Principal Ms. Cheerilee to use the upcoming Midnight Rising chapter as strictly a recap to relaunch the story, and not get into Lemon Zest until the following chapter, when I can devote a full entry to it without any split in focus. No, really. She did. You’ll see what I mean when the chapter launches, but basically, I’m

    I have reached a decision on Midnight Rising...

    Thanks in part to one final comment that came to me over PM last night. It wasn't a mean comment. In fact, it was nothing but a simple, politely asked question from a reader I hadn't heard from before: do you have to read the griffon chapters to understand what comes after?

Personal and Story Updates... · 5:44pm Aug 10th, 2016

Well folks... I apologize for taking so long to get the next TLaTU chapter out, but it's for a good reason.

I've got myself a new job! :yay: After deciding it was time to move on from my current job over the July 4 holiday, I posted my resume and got a lot of interest on it. So I interviewed at a new place three weeks ago, got a verbal offer from them two weeks ago and finally passed the background checks this week, getting my formal offer and official start date with it.

The new place is about a mile from my current one, but with a 10% raise, so definitely a step up. My last day at my current position is Friday, and then I get a couple weeks off before starting at the new place. Time I intend to use to relax and mentally reset, maybe even travel again (another Vegas run, perhaps?). However, the job search and interview process has been consuming me of late, so I haven't had as much mental energy for writing. Not to say I haven't--the new TLaTU chapter currently stands at 8200 words and may be upwards of 12,000 before all is said and done. Be advised, it will be a VERY adult chapter, with multiple scenes told through the context of the trial. :pinkiegasp: I think the trial and overall story's due for one, don't you? :twilightsmile:

There are still a couple large sections to finish, including the core sequence. No preview this time, because I'd rather everyone get it full force when it posts, most likely next week. Be looking for it!

Complete agony waiting for the clop scene as a pre-reader, but it will be worth it, lads. :moustache:

Good stuff. Landing a new job with a raise and still in your area, assuming your old one was, is quite a coup.

Congratulations on getting a new job!

Meanwhile, over at the Five Stars camp

But seriously though, congrats on the new job.

Congrats on the job~

Good God. New job? About bloody time! Good one, mate. It's all good, I hope. Call me over should you need anything on the new story.

ohhh boy!:pinkiehappy::twilightoops::twilightblush:
