    Better Than Expected

    Well, the prologue and first chapter are out, and I'll be honest, it was received a lot more warmly then I really expected it to be. Looks like it hit the feature box twice (that I'm aware of. I know it was, then wasn't, and now it's in there again as of this writing), and a lot of folks seem to be pretty excited about it. So yeah, I guess I'll keep doing it.

    It's Up

    So the prologue and first chapter are posted and ready for consumption, digestion, and eventual expulsion. It's named Reunion, by the way. Go give it a read and then let me know how bad of an idea this whole thing was. Also, I sort of went into a hazy death spiral while editing, so let me know if you spot any especially egregious mistakes.

    Update

    Greetings all. Just wanted to drop an update regarding the sequel. I'm still working on it, I just needed to finish out my degree first and take a little break. Now that I have a $20,000 piece of fancy-paper, I can focus more on writing. My release schedule is still pretty much guaranteed to be a slow-motion shit show, but it will happen. I'm not terribly confident with where I'm going with

A Request · 3:21pm Nov 18th, 2021

Morning Everyone,

Sorry for the delays in posting, I've been going through some real life nonsense, which has made it difficult to concentrate. The sequel is still happening, but I need some help from the few of you who are still around. I've got the prologue done. The first chapter is 99% done, and the next few chapters are roughly mapped out. I've fabbed up some cover art (since I can't commission a piece this time around). Now I'm stuck on one thing.

I need some help coming up with idea's for a title for the story. I'm just drawing an absolute blank for some reason. It's like the most infuriating writers block ever, except it's for a single name, which also makes it the stupidest writers block ever. The story will be slice of life, mixed with some political drama, and probably a bit of action. Amongst other things, it'll show Ryan adjusting to life in a new world, as well as the Princesses adjusting to suddenly having their father there (there's some flavor to help out).

No guarantees that I'll use whatever you guys come up with, but anything that shakes things loose helps at this point. As always, you are all deeply appreciated and cherished. And thanks!

Resolution or Reincarnation? Resurrection?

How about an equestrian term for competitions with many parts covering a variety of trials?

Eventing
an equestrian competition that typically takes place over 3 days and includes the events of dressage, cross-country, and show jumping

To go with a similar title to the first one it could be titled Reunion. Doesn't really emphasize the action parts but does work well for slice of life and adjusting

Acclimation? Maybe Restoration?

How about Adaptation

Reunited.

Keeping to a naming scheme which shares the first letter while also being a literal description of the end of the first story, emphasizing that the story is about him and his girls being reunited, not about broader issues, leaving room to cross genres.

How about Absolution?

It'd tie in nicely with the name of the first book.

Thanks folks. That is exactly what I needed. You guys are the best :pinkiehappy:
