    Coming Soon, Really

    I've been a bit under the weather since Trotcon, but feeling better now.

    This weekend I need to work on putting together some poni stuff for my niece (she's up here for her birthday), and my inability to do basic things makes that a bit difficult. So I may be delayed a few days on the Trotcon retro and the other long post I still really really want to share with y'all.

    Twilight's Enigmatic Clarification (AI ≠ LLM GAI)

    To head off any possible confusion, I've added a clarification to TEEE's story page and a note at the top of the chapter explaining that TEEE was not written using LLM generative AI (the story actually predates this technology by several years).

    I will be at Trotcon. Still alive.

    I remain alive, and as of June 13th am now the number of symmetries in a cube.

    I will be at Trotcon.

    Please contact me if you're there! (Or even if not, that's okay too.) :pinkiesad2:

    I might do an author party. I'll announce it with another post. Signal boost would be useful.

    I am still alive and also at AnthrOhio

    Sorry for disappearing. Ironically the thing I wanna talk about is the thing that keeps me from being here at FF or getting anything done. :facehoof:

Restored Symmetry · 6:34pm Nov 11th, 2017

I've spent nearly a month rewriting Broken Symmetry. The revisions are finally complete, including new full-color diagrams!


Yeah, I know. Took me long enough.

I did this in preparation for its EQD posting. The following things have changed:

:twilightsmile: I added three full-color diagrams to chapters 5, 12, and 14 (last chapter).
:twilightsmile: Luna has a slightly larger part, meeting with Moondancer mid-story.
:twilightsmile: Science is more detailed and more thoroughly explained to the reader.
:twilightsmile: A few plot-holes were explicitly fixed, and more foreshadowing added.
:twilightsmile: Other general edits were made to improve the story.

If you've never read this story, then what are you waiting for? :pinkiehappy:

If you have read the story, but not recently, I really think the changes will make it worth rereading the entire thing.

If you've read the story recently and you really don't want to reread it, you should probably skim most of it but make sure you reread chapters 5 and 7, and the last three chapters (12, 13, and 14). That's where the bulk of the changes are. (There are changes in every chapter, but in a hoofful of chapters the changes are few and minor.)

Now here comes my plea for assistance.

I've been rewriting this thing for weeks now. I'm about to tell EQD to go ahead with the posting Dubs approved, but I'd like one last final sanity check to make sure there are no errors left behind. If my followers could pore over the text and let me know here in the comments if they notice anything out of place, that would be super awesome.

It's a fun story to read anyway, as long as you like super-geeky sci-fi and dorkhorse-shipping. :twistnerd:

I hope you all enjoy the changes! Let me know what you think in the comments. :pinkiesmile:

Great. No I have an excuse to re-read it.

Super-geeky sci-fi dorkhorse shipping and an explicit exhortation for copyediting? Sign me up.

Ok. I will do my best to at least do that for you.

I'll get right on that, Trick Question.
