    We need to talk about Into the Light.

    HELLO THERE. IT'S ME. The most inconsistent author on the platform! :D

    Live footage of everyone's reaction when I come crawling back for the 5,000th time.

    Let's talk about Into the Light. Firstly, I apologize.

    Into the Light: Chapter 8 this Weekend!

    HELLO AGAIN.

    I'll cut to the chase. As the title implies, I'm releasing Into the Light: Chapter 8 "Snow and Cinder" this Saturday!

    Yes yes, it's been a while... just about two months to be precise. Insert generic apology for slowness here and a rehash of why these chapters come out so slowly.

Into the Light: Chapter 4 is here! (Plus Soundtrack) · 7:00pm Dec 18th, 2021

Ladies and gentlemen... Chapter 4 has arrived, and now with its own soundtrack!

EInto the Light
In the wake of an existential threat, young Celestia and Luna are thrust into the storybook realm of Clydestale to learn what it truly means to be creative.

The last month has been filled with all kinds of returning to roots for me, first fanfics, and now music as well!

The reception for Into the Light so far has been remarkable. I wasn't expecting my first fic in 7 years to get the attention it did, but needless to say I am stoked to keep working on it. My plans have only expanded since I initially began work on this wholesome little tale. I hope that you'll all continue to support me as the story begins to shift. Rest assured, the mystery and cuteness isn't going anywhere!

Chapter 5 is also scheduled to release TOMORROW (since I just couldn't possibly leave you all with that cliffhanger for long.) I've updated the story description and gotten some truly awe-inspiring cover art from the talented Calena and am making a push right now to get this story into as many hooves as possible.

If you've been enjoying the story and are excited for more, please share it with your friends. The support goes a long way for my motivation, and knowing people are anxiously awaiting what's next encourages me to work hard! Oh, and don't forget to like, comment and subscribe.

Cheers, all!
