Updates and reasons why I hate this time of year. x.x

Hello all my lovely fans (and everypony else who is reading this. But then if you are not a fan, why would you be reading this?)
Anyway, things are coming along with the next chapter of Long Live the Queen. Knowledge and I would have had it ready for our pre-readers today but then we got to talking and had a brainstorm session, an epiphany, colt maybe even strong enough to be called a revelation! of future ideas for the story and how to go about accomplishing a few ideas I had for the far future that previously eluded me with how to go about. As such, like ususal, the chapter is going to be a little late as we go about rewriting about three important scenes in the chapter. Hopefully this should only take an extra day, maybe two, but will see what happens. If anything, we should have the chapter ready and published by mid-week at the latest. Our favorite characters are going through a lot this chapter to make way for the things soon to come. So when it is ready I hope you all will enjoy the hard work we've been putting in for all of you.

Now for why I hate this time of year and why we couldn't have had this epiphany earlier. The last two weeks I've been sick with a cold that has knocked me to my knees and stuck this poor little changeling into bed far earlier that she would have liked. I have had my good days, in which I pounded out the scenes for this next chapter when I was coherent enough to do so, then with the wonderful help of Knowledge turned my cold addled words into something that could be understood, but it has made it so I haven't been able to even see the screen clearly as my eyes just wouldn't focus right. Yet I persevered and did all I could to make it so you all wouldn't have to wait longer than needed to read the 'fun' I've been working toward writing for over a year now (which will start at the end of this chapter.)

*cough* Also a little note to all those waiting on a PM reply from me: this is why I haven't replied yet mt brain has been too muddled to think coherently enough to do so. But know I will get back to you ASAP! *hugs*

But anyway, look forward to the next chapter within the next few days as Knowledge, my pre-readers and I work to make this exciting chapter ready for your viewing pleasure. As always, take care of yourselves and have a great day!
