    Chapter 10 Update

    Happy Spring, every-pony! Well, the eclipse happened over where I live, and I got to witness it! I must say, the corona of an eclipse is much brighter than pictures can convey. The darkness itself was fascinating, like evening coming early, and we heard crickets start their chorus. We can only speculate what their reaction to daylight five minutes later was. And Venus was clearly visible

    Chapter 10 Update

    March Madness is here, every-pony! And with it comes an update to my progress with "The Sixth Alicorn." I have finished writing Chapter 10 long hand, and it stretches out to 5744 words over 21 and a half pages. It's certainly much shorter than my previous chapters, but don't worry; chapter 11 looks like it will be much more substantial, from what I have planned. I'm in the process of typing

    Not dead! Chapter 10 update

    Hi every-pony, I thought I should check in with all of you, since it's been a while since I provided any updates. As some of you may know, I lost my job in October of last year, and have been job hunting ever since. No luck yet, but it's not for lack of trying! I've been focused mostly on resolving that hiccough in my life, so you may well understand why I haven't been able to update. I've

    Chapter Nine Uploaded!!!

    Happy Nightmare Night, every-pony! Good news, I have finally posted chapter nine of The Sixth Alicorn! Final word count comes to 12,287, clipped from the initial 13,809. It took a long while to get this chapter written. Not only was this due to the usual travails of writing, but I had a number of personal setbacks to go through (such as getting terminated from my job!), as well as

    Nightmare Night, here comes something sweet to bite!

    Happy Nightmare Night weekend, every-pony! I have a treat coming up for you all. Chapter Nine of "The Sixth Alicorn" is entering it's final stage. I'm going through my final read-through of it at present. That should take a few more days. Look for the chapter update either on Mischief Night or Halloween itself, which I think you will find perfectly apt, given the sort of story I am writing,

Chapter Six Update · 5:25am Feb 1st, 2021

Greetings every-pony! I thought I'd pop in to provide a status update for Chapter Six. I have been working on it, though not as much as would have liked. I have at this point of writing completed 4000+ words of it. I have a plan for how the chapter is going to go, but it has several character POVs going on. I basically write whatever part is in my head at the moment, so I have a lot of connecting to do.

I've also done work on Chapter Seven as well. I have 3400 words done on that chapter. I like writing that chapter a little more, since that one will be entirely from Nyx's POV.

That's where I'm at for right now. I'll see if I can't at least have a finished first draft by the end of February. Stay safe, every-pony!

I will be waiting for the next chapter. Hope it's not gonna take too long, but take the time needed of course.
Nyx's POV sounds interesting.
Stay safe!
