    Exploiting the Crystal Mirror

    It has been several months since the end of DPGCMC, and without much of its tourist trade, the Crystal Empire has seen better days. One thing the Empire does have is the Crystal Mirror, and an old friend of Cadance's just stepped through it.

    Yes, DPGCMC is now complete.

    If you started reading when one new chapter was up and didn't see there were four, well, you have more reading to do.

    All three CMC have their marks and are pretty well defined in their new roles. In essence, anything going forward would not be the day to day goings on of the crusaders anymore, but things set on a much greater time scale.

    Status Report on DPGCMC

    The next chapter is 60-70% complete.
    The one after that is 55-65% complete.
    The one after that is 75-85% complete.

    If you are thinking, "Hey wait a minute -- that means you could have had two chapters out already if you had posted them as you wrote them and didn't write ahead so much," you wouldn't be wrong.

    Season 7's CMC and DPGCMC

    The more I see of season 7, the more I realize just how much the CMC have lost by taking up Discord's offer. By, in a way, cheating themselves to some semblance of adulthood, they got tons of responsibility before they were quite ready for it, and it significantly changed the way in which they developed. It also removed some of the cohesion that they still have in actual canon. They also

    I am not a songwriter -- are any of you?

    One thing some of you know, and others might not, is that I tend to bounce about a bit in my writing. I tend to write pieces of future chapters at the same time as I am writing my current chapter.

Exploiting the Crystal Mirror · 6:21pm Jun 17th, 2020

It has been several months since the end of DPGCMC, and without much of its tourist trade, the Crystal Empire has seen better days. One thing the Empire does have is the Crystal Mirror, and an old friend of Cadance's just stepped through it.

This story is a sequel to DPGCMC, but it will be from Cadance and Sunset Shimmer's point of view. I have the first chapter mostly written (expect it to be posted around the end of the month/beginning of July), and have a pretty good outline for most of the story. One thing I don't have is a picture with Cadance and Sunset in it.

So... when will we see this?

I was making progress on this up until Hurricane Isiais hit taking power out and flooding the basement. The enforced time out from writing and then all the extra work cleaning up from it then catching up on things. It broke routine quite soundly and without support (Had people been supportive at the idea -- I mean you can see all of the responses this blog post got -- I had hoped for some real interest and maybe a picture for the fic) and knowing that the minute I posted a chapter I'd be committed, I didn't really get back to it. Covid didn't help the writing juices either -- It is harder to write about a 2018ish EQ Girls world now -- a world without masks just seems so distant.

This doesn't mean it won't happen sometime, although it does make it more likely that I'll have the whole thing done before I post anything rather than doing it a piece at a time, and it is at the mercy of me actually having the muse arrive at a time when I am in the mood to do it while having the spare time.

Your post did return it to my mind though -- I wasn't even thinking about it recently before this -- so that in itself makes it more likely to happen.
