    Prereader verdict on new Midnight Rising chapter is in...

    And unfortunately, that verdict is unanimous:

    Complaints were: too meta, hard to follow, does nothing to advance the plot, and potentially makes things worse while trying to fix them.

    Still waiting on Midnight Rising prereads...

    Which are particularly important this time, because the first preread I got back was negative. As it came from AJ_Aficionado, whose opinions I particularly value mostly because he’s more interested in the story than the sex, I tend to give what he said about it credence but still want to hear from everyone else before I start making changes to the new chapter.

    Mind changed on removing the griffon arc from Midnight Rising + teaser

    After receiving pleas from multiple readers to keep the Enter the Griffon chapters in place, I have decided to do so and go with my original plan, which was to simply offer new readers the chance

    One final thing...

    I have been advised by no less an authority than CHS acting Vice-Principal Ms. Cheerilee to use the upcoming Midnight Rising chapter as strictly a recap to relaunch the story, and not get into Lemon Zest until the following chapter, when I can devote a full entry to it without any split in focus. No, really. She did. You’ll see what I mean when the chapter launches, but basically, I’m

    I have reached a decision on Midnight Rising...

    Thanks in part to one final comment that came to me over PM last night. It wasn't a mean comment. In fact, it was nothing but a simple, politely asked question from a reader I hadn't heard from before: do you have to read the griffon chapters to understand what comes after?

Work on Firefly continues · 2:49pm May 4th, 2020

I had planned to shift over to Nightmare Night after this latest chapter, but I find myself with momentum on the story again after a successful release--I really enjoyed the comments this time, folks; they told me I hit the mark I was aiming for on this chapter quite well--and a scene I very much want to get to.

If I pull it off, it will be another epic moment and serve as a powerful point of character development for two major figures, doubly so for the perspective it will be told through. I'll also serve to pull readers--and myself--out of the sadness the last chapter created. My stories are always balanced; there will be moments of sadness and defeat but also plenty of happiness and triumph. Though perhaps rebirth might be a better word for what's planned.

Guest chapters are also underway and in varying stages of completion by AJ_Aficionado and Denim_Blue. AJA is doing another Highborne scene while DB is handling the Changeling side of things. AJA's contribution will appear in conjunction with a Nightborne counterpoint scene involving Captain Typhoon's visit and appeal to the Lunar Council. DB's might well appear as a standalone chapter depending on length.

As always, more information will follow as we get closer, though I may refrain from teasers this time involving the epic scene to come. Better to have readers come in cold to this one, I think.
