  • TStarlight Over Detrot: A Noir Tale
    In the decaying metropolis of Detrot, 60 years and one war after Luna's return, Detective Hard Boiled and friends must solve the mystery behind a unicorn's death in a film noir-inspired tale of ponies, hard cider, conspiracy, and murder.

    A print run of Starlight Over Detrot?

    So, the Ministry Of Image printing house has a new survey up! Can you guess who is on it?

    https://forms.gle/p7Lnap4AcZnjgZpn9

    I am absurdly excited. I doubt we'll get printed, but it would be amazing if we did! I would love to hold a copy of Starlight Over Detrot in my hands one day.

    So, what's next?

    Starlight Over Detrot is done and now I'm intent on writing something else. I've got the outline for a romance novel. A non-pony romance novel, mind. That being said, I wanna write a few more pony things while I do that. I've got a heap of ideas for an 'Epilogue Part Four' for Starlight which happens a few years after the events of Epilogue Part Three and just sorta ties everything off.

    I'M NOT DEAD!

    Okay, so the final main-story chapter of Starlight Over Detrot is *now* in the editorial pipe-line. It's headed to the people who do the good stuff.

    The editors, being the geniuses they are, will likely have it finished VERY soon and I'll pump it out to everybody. Is this the end of Starlight Over Detrot?

    ONE MORE CHAPTER!

    Dear lord, shoot me in the face.

    All the years I've been writing this and I say to myself "Yeah, gonna finish it tonight!" then the characters get to talking. Talking. Just back and forth. GRAH!

Chapter is headed to the editors! · 2:04pm Aug 29th, 2018

Alrighty, sending the chapter off. It'll be in your hands as quick as I can get it to you and the editors may need to iron out some kinks before it gets there, but we'll make it work!

I'm sorry it took so long. I've had several deaths in my life this month. My partner's uncle died in a motorcycle accident. Coworker and close friend who I spend about 24 hours a week with lost his grandmother. Other partner's room mate lost their grandmother, so he's been a wreck.

Crazy.

Jeez. Just ended up seeing a lot of people off to funerals. This whole 'mortality' thing is garbage. We need to patch this shit out!

I'll get the chapter to you ASAP. Hopefully, next month is quieter.

Thanks Chessie. Just happy to know you’re still plugging away at the story. Condolences to everyone, for what that’s worth. Take it easy

Real life should always be > ponyfiction. Even really good ponyfiction. If you happen to find Grogar's bells in your closet, however...

Sometimes sadly, life throws a pile of funerals not far away from each other.
Late last year/ early this year, dad attended at least 4 (there might have been five, don't remember fully) funerals.
I myself attended 2 of those (the others were not people I can claim I knew) and the mood gets to you.
Best of wishes. To all affected.

Yipe. There’s really no rush to appease us (in fact I’ve been a bit swamped by work, updates and other things, but certainly had a better month than you have).
