    Midnight Rising/C&C update: April showers may bring May flowers...

    But of more interest is the emergence of 17-year cicadas in my area. Big, ugly, red-eyed insects that are the size of your thumb but basically harmless, as long as you can get past all the shed skins they leave behind on leaves and the everpresent and disconcertly loud background sound they produce as a mating call. Fortunately, the outbreak in my area seems pretty limited. There's a few around,

    Midnight Rising update; Feathered Hearts C&C teaser...

    Hey, folks. Here’s my weekly writing update. I’m tagging this as C&C since that’s what the teaser below is about, but the blog is about both it and Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising.

    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

The Future of Five Stars... · 3:55pm Jan 7th, 2018

Hey folks. Just wanted to let everyone know where things stand with our favorite mare and the future of the Five Star series.

To begin with, I have decided that I am going back into the original story to completely rewrite the climactic scene with The Attorney. Reading it now, I am not--at all--happy with it, and thus I am going to totally redo it. The changes will be major enough that I will re-release the chapter when the time comes. Additional changes will also be made to the previous chapter where she first met him to take care of some other issues there, but both modified chapters will be released when ready, and be assured I will preserve the earlier versions of the chapters as well. When will it happen? I don’t know yet. I have plenty of other stuff to write, but within the next couple months, definitely.

A sequel to Five Star Service is still planned, but will not be released until next Xmas because that’s when it will take place. The story will involve where Five Stars goes and who she sees following the conclusion of the article series. If you want a hint, there’s still one major figure from her past she hasn’t seen or visited, and she intends to both rectify that and the fact that for all the work she’s done with humans, she hasn’t actually visited the human world yet. Yes, Five Stars is coming to Earth. Heaven help us all...

Aside from that, a couple other things I might mention. First, I’d like to give a shout-out to ShadowLDrago for reading through the story and leaving comments on it. He’s one of my favorite commenters, and his longposts on The Lawyer and The Unicorn and other works of mine are something I look forward to with every release. Second, Five Stars has made cameos in my other stories, including TLaTU, Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising, and even Rise of Firefly, where she appeared as her ancestor. I think she’s become something of a franchise character of mine! She will continue to make guest appearances in other works, including at some point Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night. Be afraid, folks...
