    shhhhhhhhhhhh just breaking the site again don't mind me

    very, very, very experimental fic continues its slow progress as the deadline for bicyclette's sci-fi contest draws near. these chapters are about on-par with what if in terms of length, but oh boy have they been an interesting experience to write.

    hey hey btw i've got a (couple of) public minecraft server(s)!

    yeah so anyway here is my webbed site lol. there's an MC Classic server for building whatever, and an MC Beta 1.7.3 server for playing survival. I might eventually also put up a modern vanilla server as well, though given how I'm hosting a bunch of servers already for friends and a couple of discord servers, idk if the little slab of a PC I'm using to host 'em all would be able to manage lol.

    summer break is almost here :V

    basically got one week left lol. got an experimental fic in the works that's a sort-of direct sequel picking off right where Splintershard ended. no prior reading is necessary.

    MAN it's been a while since I've toyed with writing styles.

Should I put Splintershard on the same update schedule as Pony-Me? · 12:06am Jan 6th, 2021

I feel like constantly trying to meet a 1-week deadline for new chapters is starting to grind a bit on the quality of what I've been writing. The chapter I wrote last week (not the chapter I posted, just the one I wrote), for example, felt awkward as heck when I first wrote it, and it took multiple days of back-and-forth workshopping between one of my only active prereaders for the story, as well as in I Just Want a Comment's Discord server, for me to fix it.

It was just a bit of writer's block on a single chapter out of many, but still. With Pony-Me, not having to worry about deadlines has let me spent much more time making sure that the chapters flow well, and... yeah. You get the point by now, probably.

So, how about it? Should I make the jump back to a "post when I feel like the chapters are done" schedule like Pony-Me, or should I try and stick to the weekly cycle that the story has now?

As I am more than likely part of the problem :facehoof: I really have no right to have an opinion. Though I would say better not to stress yourself out, especially over others failures, and just release as you can. Sorry Techie. :twilightoops:

No worries. I've gone ahead and removed the update cycle message for Splintershard. :twilightsmile:
