    Coping of a Former Human Removed (Deleted)

    Today, I have removed the "A Deer Named John" companion piece "Coping of a Former Human" from my published stories list. I've been considering this action for a long time (years) and have finally made the move. The reason being that it doesn't easily fit with what I have planned moving forward with its group of stories. Those stories I still want to write, just they now no longer have the weight

    State of the next chapter

    Have spent part of this week nibbling away at what could be considered the cold opening of the next chapter, which wasn't originally planned for. The fun of adjusting the end of the previous chapter. Reviewed the overall notes as well and am currently dealing with an issue which would have become a plot hole in about eight or ten chapters time so doing best to plug it before that can happen.

    It is finally here!

    It is here. It is FINALLY here! Approximately two years from the date I was originally aiming for and on a date I otherwise wouldn't have but the distraction is very welcome. The new chapter is finally out of my hands!

    As the author's notes say at the end of the chapter:

    Finally!

    The draft for the next chapter, current title (MA2-C3) City Search, is finally complete. It still needs a little tidying up but, so long as major changes don't need to happen, it shouldn't be long until it is posted. If major changes do need to happen, I will post an update. The title may still change if I come up with something better before it is posted.

    Update

    A fresh 500 words added to the next chapter today. First forward progress in months that wasn't scrapping and rewriting the same section over and over. Isn't perfect but that can be dealt with in the edit. Liking the feel of the chapter set up as it now stands. Still a lot more to go, but feeling like this is actual progress.

Update - December 14th · 6:17am Dec 14th, 2021

Sorry I've been so quiet of late. Many things have been keeping me busy. A major carer issue being one of them which had me stressed for a few weeks (my father needed surgery). That has resolved well.

The other big thing holding me back was that I needed to get the non-MLP story ready for a reader to look through when they have a very tight time frame to do so. It is very generous of them to help me in this way and I can't thank them enough. It also meant that I had to make it the priority over John. As of about ten minutes ago, I have finally completed the major overhaul of that story. It will need me to do some quick skim editing, but I will be getting the whole project off my plate by the end of the week. I will then be able to turn my focus fully back to A Deer Named John.

Again, sorry for the radio silence. I just needed to focus on certain things and the other story's upgrades done as fast but as cleanly as possible. Thank you all so much for sticking with me and John so far. New chapters will be coming soon.

Tael.
