    Update

    Hey, I wanted to give you all a heads up.

    So this next chapter is a pretty major one for the story - on the level of the Gourd Fest, Twilight and Starlight in the snow, and the final cluster of 4-6.

    As such, I've been taking my time and am 7k words in and I know it's going to be more than double that.

    So I watched the last several episodes...

    It was such a cute ending. Very nostalgic-feeling. Didn't cry, but it made me reflect on the show that has been a constant in my life since spring of 2012.

    If you've heard any controversy about it, don't heed it any concern. It's the squalling of children unhappy that the story isn't what they wanted it to be - as it has been every season.

    It's the endgame, y'all

    That was a killer premiere. Honestly, Grogar has this gravitas to him, this insight and perspective that's already established him, in my mind, as a terrifying MLP villain. Being the source of everything evil, all the monsters we've seen, it's all on him. And that voice and the design? Oh! I love this villain.

    Last chapter of act 4 is finally finished

    At 44K words and 103 single-spaced pages on gdocs, the next chapter of 'The Broken Bond' is at last finished, and ho boy, a lot happens. I just need to edit it - expect it Saturday if not tomorrow. Thank you all for being patient with me.

Buckle Up: next chapter is gonna be big · 8:35pm Feb 21st, 2019

Not just in terms of story and character development (for almost everyone who is a major character, not just Starlight), but size, too.

You see, every chapter I plot out the story beats of each scene before I get to writing it. They're so I have a crystal clear vision of what will happen. They're usually only two to three pages on GDocs.

You know how much this one was, which I just got done finishing? Almost 5,000 words across eight pages!

Yeah. Like I said, this chapter is going to be looooong. That said, it might take me a week from now to finish it, but I will begin writing it tonight. The good thing when I'm like this, excited to share what I have in store, it's far easier for me to just start writing and let the words flow until I get tired.

Hopefully it will be worth the wait!

Thank you again, everybody, for following me on this emotional journey through Starlight's character and that of her friends. As this chapter concludes Act IV, which will undoubtedly be longer than V and VI, we enter the third act of the overall story, so to speak.
