Status Update 5/3/2018 · 4:33am May 4th, 2018
So! I updated Sunset in Ponyville today, so check that out if you haven't already. Got a few new followers too, which is always great. To those of you not yet in the know, since the start of April I've been doing nightly status update blogs regarding my writing progress and any thought regarding it I may be having. I started doing this basically as a way to hold myself accountable in some fashion to actually keep writing at a fairly reasonable pace. my current goal is to hit 31k words by the end of the month, which means about a thousand words per day!
Recently I've been working on chapter 13 of Synchrony, my other current in-progress story - check it out if you haven't! I know it's a lot more intimidating to get in to than Sunset in Ponyville, but I think it's worth it. Those who have read it have liked it.
Anyway. I got 1,044 words done today - not my best, of course, but still above my daily target. More importantly, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to finish it tomorrow, or perhaps the day after if the final big scene runs long. Either way, it won't be long before I start writing chapter 7 of Sunset!
Current total for the month is 3,232. Neat! That's all for tonight, so I'll see you all tomorrow.
Being above the needed pace is always good, even if only a few words. All those extra words add up over time and can save you a needed few hundred near the end.
So I have been wondering something for a while now... when this story catches up to the current timeline of Time Goes on, will this story continue on from its ending?
Just curious is all!

Yup! The current plan is for the 'First Impressions' arc to cover everything up to where Time Goes On ended. Then there'll be an adaptation of that ending (and some new content for Time Goes On as well), and Sunset in Ponyville will continue on with the rest of the year.

Yay!
