    You know what they say about the best laid plans? I'll be real brief with this update, for reasons that will be self-evident.

    Another month, albeit the shortest of the year. I still haven't had a chance to get into the process side of my writing and write that detailed plan for the year, been too busy writing a novel. Guess that's a good problem to have.

    This is exactly the 71st month I've posted a patreon calendar. Almost but not quite six years of writing fanfic, sharing all these ideas with you that would otherwise stay trapped in my head. I couldn't begin this post, and the beginning of a new year without expressing my profound thanks to everyone who keeps supporting me. Your help, big or small, is the only reason I'm still able to write

    New Story: The First Willowbrook Christmas!

    Hey pones! A Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! Last year I wrote a short story for the holiday, but the editing pushed it back for a little while. For those who enjoyed Sisters of Willowbrook, I have a story for you to check out! The final chapter will get posted tomorrow:

New Story: Forbidden Places! · 9:13pm Jan 31st, 2021

Hey everyone, just wanted to drop a line and make sure people knew about my newest story, Forbidden Places!

Forbidden Places is the story of a group of Urban Explorers. After venturing deep into the Catacombs beneath Paris, they get hopelessly lost like so many before them. But while on the edge of desperation, they discover a way out, a way that leads to another world. Their only hope to see their home (and their humanity) again is to journey across Equestria to discover another Worldgate, one that doesn't lead to certain death on the other side.

In terms of the more procedural stuff, the story has two slots, which means it will update fast compared to what I normally write, particularly in this first month where it has to catch up to Patreon. I've mentioned it a few times, but it's also the first time I've ever tried to write using so many viewpoints: all four of the characters on that cover are perspective characters, who will get equal weight as the story moves forward. Some may get a few more chapters than other in an individual month, but I'm keeping tally and I will balance accounts. I want every project to teach me something, and for this one the principle I'm studying is Characterization. I feel like I've already learned a lot writing these first two months worth, and I know it's only going to get faster.

Anyway, if you're interested, check it out here: https://www.fimfiction.net/story/487641/forbidden-places

Ooooh, if this is like Fine Print, then I'm already excited!

5445342 Ditto on that.

It's already got a great start! I'm looking forward to the updates!

Erm just asking but if they end up in safety with equestria wouldn’t they just gather supplies and a way to mark there path and a way back to the portal and look for a way out of the catacombs or do they fall though it facing certain death

5445342
It is the same world, yes! I would like to say more about that, but I can't since Fine Print still has a few months left before it's finished.

I don't want to spoil anything, but I'll just say for now that they have that idea too. It may not work out as well as they hope.

Also adorable art you make it?

5445512
Still it’s adorable and I never thought I’d see a cuter non reformed changeling till now
