The Sun sets each day, though see it we do not. And Shimmering it leaves us, and another day ends. But as the Twilight starts, the day again shall come. So, too, we must Rise.

    Days in the Sun

    Yesterday, late yesterday, I released a story for Sunset Day. Days in the Sun.

    This, however, is different from my other stories, solely based off the genre.

    I had fun writing it, despite the genre.

    I hope to be updating my other stories, Wings of Time and the Rising Universe soon, but school is hectic this semester.

    Until next time!

    I'm not dead!

    That's right! I'm writing again!

    Today I updated Friendship Rising. I hope to be updating more regularly.

    I also have been working on Codename: Autumn, which is a fic that I have not released the actual title yet. It's going rather well. It should be released in a few months.

End of Month Progress Report: February · 8:59pm Feb 28th, 2018

That's right, I'm actually doing one of these. This month: February. The month that for no good reason has only 28 days.

Tell us how you really feel.

Sorry about that, I just don't understand it. Anyways, this has been a big month of writing for me. I finished my first fic, and started two other ones, one of which is a sequel to the one I finished. My Rising Universe is my big project, which begins in The Sunset Also Rises.

And it features me!

Why yes it does, Sunny. The Sunset Also Rises wound up being 25,209 words. At first, the chapters started out really short, but I then began to improve upon it. Now, per chapter, I am writing between 1.5k to 3k words, with some exceptions. Just this month, I wrote 13,416 words for The Sunset Also Rises, at last finishing it up.

Yup! And then continuing to Friendship Rising, which comes afterwards, still with me!

Indeed it is. I've only written 1,388 words for that though. But, I also started a new, stand alone fic, that takes place in another universe. The Wings of Time. A time travel fic starring Starlight Glimmer, Flurry Heart, Sunburst, and the Great and Powerful Trixie, with the rest of the mane 6 tagging along, as well as Best Pony. I've written 6,311 words for that, bringing my total to 21,115 words for the month. This does not include editing, though. Word counts are as you see them on the site. I also wrote 2 songs for The Sunset Also Rises, namely, The Love of Family and Lullaby of the Crystal Empire. Both were fully made by me. I also made Lullaby for a Student, which is Lullaby for a Princess, but different, for Sunset. I took the original lyrics and rewrote them all, such as to follow the site rules.

Honestly, I never thought I'd garner support and followers. But, just this month, I've gotten 16 of them. Thank you! And thank you to the two who started following me beforehand. I am also amazed with how much everyone has enjoyed The Sunset Also Rises. This support is what has encouraged me to keep writing. So thank you all.

Yes, thank you. You guys are awesome!
