    One Year Anniversary

    Last year this day, Defect was published. Man, it feels like an eternity ago.

    Defect was my first featured story, and I'm so lucky to have experienced that. I still remember the joy and exuberance I felt when I saw that it made to the feature box... after a whole nine hours of being unnoticed after the story was first published!

    I'm not Dead! And neither is the story!

    Hey guys, sorry about the complete lack of updates for Defect. Recently, I'm dealing with some rather time-consuming tasks (Read: Moving to Sydney) so I didn't have a lot of time to spend on pony-related goodness. Unfortunately, it will likely be at least a few more weeks before everything can settle down. In the meantime, though, I am still working on the next chapter, so all hope is not lost.

    Friendly Update Inbound!

    Sorry about the... what, four weeks wait? Yeah. Unfortunately my writing speed is not the more optimal. School has also been strangling me a little bit but that's for another time. To be honest, the chapter took me about two weeks since the first week was mostly spent majorly editing proofreading chapter 1 with my editors (who are all doing a stellar job so far). So yeah, chapter 2 is done

    What a ride!

    Wow. My first featured story. To make things better, it didn't stay on there for a few minutes, or even a few hours. No, it stayed on there for four days! Words cannot explain my gratitude to you guys for making it my (by far) most successful story to date. It was originally intended as a bling for my own amusement, and I really only published out of pure curiosity of its reception.

    So... I'm moving to Sydney

    What's that about publishing all those stories?

    Yeah, about that. Do you hear that sound?

    Um... no? What is it?

    Oh not much, it's just the sound of my dreams dying in a fire.

One Year Anniversary · 11:19pm Jan 27th, 2018

Last year this day, Defect was published. Man, it feels like an eternity ago.

Defect was my first featured story, and I'm so lucky to have experienced that. I still remember the joy and exuberance I felt when I saw that it made to the feature box... after a whole nine hours of being unnoticed after the story was first published!

However, one thing I'm not particularly proud of is... the update schedule. If it even exists at all. There are a few reasons for my slow updates, especially considering the word count of each chapter, but that's no excuse for the four months long and six months long hiatus I've put the story in. On top of this, I'm aiming to finish the first Arc for Defect this year. Then, I will likely put the story on a mini-hiatus as I do the prep work for the next Arc and start fleshing out everything as much as possible. We're already near the midpoint for this first Arc, though the second half will be way more intensive for both action and story.

Anyways, that's all for now. Chapter 6 should be coming out really soon. It's also going to be the longest chapter to date in terms of wordcount. Unfortunately, that chapter will mark the end of my relatively quick updates for Defect. In part because I should give some attention to my other stories as well as due to school kicking in again.

Here's to hoping you have a nice year in 2018! Until next time, Croaks out!
