First Blog and Story Update · 11:38pm Nov 7th, 2016

First off:

Hi! Thanks for taking a moment to read this, even if you only read a few lines and continue on. I don't plan on doing a ton of blog-style posts; when I post one, it's going to be for something important. I don't really want to clutter your Feed with irrelevant ramblings. :derpytongue2:

There are two things I want to focus on with this post, and both revolve around my story, Fallout: Equestria - Of Shadows. I've been devoting as much time as I can to it recently, and am currently writing Chapter 6. Only Chapter 1 has been posted here, and the reason is because I'm currently waiting on my editor, a helpful fellow named Arloste from /r/falloutequestria.

When I say waiting, that's exactly what I mean; the chapter is complete, as is Chapter 3 and 4. 5 and 6 are currently under simultaneous construction, as I've hit minor writer's block on a particular scene in 5. With Ch 2, however, Mr. Arloste has made some helpful contributions, but for the past month has been working overtime at his job, and has had little to no time to give Of Shadows any attention. This isn't particularly problematic, but I would like to maintain something resembling an "upload schedule," with no more than 2-3 weeks between each chapter posting.

So, while Chapter 2 is basically all done, I'd like one or two more reviews of it before it goes live. That said, Arloste doesn't seem to have a lot of time, so I'd like to ask anyone interested out there: would you be interested in pre-reading Of Shadows? I wouldn't say I need an editor (unless you really want to help that much), just someone who can give me feedback on the feel and flow of chapters, recommend minor or major edits, and help me sort out thoughts and ideas regarding the plot and its future.

Anywho, that's where I'm at, and regardless I am striving to publish Chapter 2 very soon. I'm really, really happy with what I've written, and I think you'll enjoy it. :twilightsmile:

Thanks for reading this far (or just jumping to the ending). By the way, happy N7 Day!

tl;dr: Wanna pre-read for me? :twilightblush:

Ah I'm so tempting to say sure i'll give it a read but...I know me. And I know i'll never have anything to say should I read it or ...i may not read it at all. Coz i'm lazy... :facehoof:

It's fine if you don't want to! :raritywink:

4289472 It's not that I don't to...it's more making a promise i won't keep.

4289476

Gotcha. Well, if you ever decide you can, the proposition will still be open!

4289484 I know where to ask :twilightsmile:
