    Update: Bring the Dawn #1

    Heya all! For those not incredibly interested in writings outside of ponies, this may still interest you. I'd like to introduce Bring the Dawn, my own original IP I've been working partly on for the last few months, until my motivation pool dried up after having to fresh restart at the very beginning.

    Verve's Final Chapter: A Warm Hearth (6.7k Characters)

    I'm less than happy to admit that the story is finally over. There's nowhere else to go. The final chapter, no longer left to the stars - but here, uploaded, written, softly edited, and complete with fitting music and pictures of Vee.

    Bring the Dawn!

    Heya!~ If you're reading this post, you either do or don't know that I've been working on a novel for a bit. A lot of you may know that I'm a fast author. I typically write out 2-3 chapters a day, when I have the mood and energy to do so. Which, for Verve and Inertia, I had for... two months straight.

70 Chapters, 40 days. · 8:24am Sep 19th, 2021

And I'm still not finished. I did the estimation, and the story could very well break 85-90 chapters baseline (5k words a chapter average) with 10 epilogue chapters. Tons of plot bouncing, talking, small rewrites, a few dumped chapters (a *few, like... 5) and work keeping me slow, otherwise I'd be done by now. Out of these 40 days (I think it's closer to 38 days), I've spent maybe 2-5 days with less than one chapter's progress each.

To put it into perspective how big Verve is, it's likely to break half a million words, and should include an epilogue to skip rereading Inertia for those less interested. I should really remaster Inertia to be less bad, but that's 39 chapters I don't want to go through right now. I did the math, and it would be around 2,500,000 characters long - excluding spaces, which would put it at 300,000 characters. Or, almost 1/3rd of the length of the world's longest story. Or book. Something. Google says book. Whatever.

Verve is likely to be my last story for ponies - though I might do a followup into one of the Character's past. This is not a promise. The College of Pointed Hats is optional for me, as I want to write a real book, soon.

In other news, if anyone happens to have a spare computer on hand, please throw it my way. I hate Chromebook, and I miss my gaming laptop.

I may set a time limit for myself at... 14 days, and upload 5 chapters a day to keep the train rolling. Maybe. By the time I upload 70, I should have finished the last few chapters.

If anything, I'll dump 20 chapters a day, that way I can get some views. On top of slamming it into every single group I can.

Thanks for reading. <3
