    Did two things this past weekend...

    First, I ran 10k for the first time in two months after laying off that long to let my ankle bursitis subside, trying to allow the area to generally heal up. It appears it worked. To my delight, there was no ankle pain after and I hadn’t even lost much stamina thanks to hitting an elliptical machine twice a week for an hour instead of jogging. My upper legs are another matter, though. They’re

    C&C chapter 40 entering prereads tonight + teaser

    Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going

    Midnight Rising/C&C update: April showers may bring May flowers...

    But of more interest is the emergence of 17-year cicadas in my area. Big, ugly, red-eyed insects that are the size of your thumb but basically harmless, as long as you can get past all the shed skins they leave behind on leaves and the everpresent and disconcertly loud background sound they produce as a mating call. Fortunately, the outbreak in my area seems pretty limited. There's a few around,

    Midnight Rising update; Feathered Hearts C&C teaser...

    Hey, folks. Here’s my weekly writing update. I’m tagging this as C&C since that’s what the teaser below is about, but the blog is about both it and Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising.

    Prereader verdict on new Midnight Rising chapter is in...

    And unfortunately, that verdict is unanimous:

    Complaints were: too meta, hard to follow, does nothing to advance the plot, and potentially makes things worse while trying to fix them.

What a month... now what to do? · 7:10pm Jan 7th, 2022

Well, folks... the past 30 days have been one of my post prolific periods of writing on a single story ever, excepting perhaps that massive push I had last Spring on writing Feathered Hearts - Eros. I did indeed release one Eros chapter for Christmas, but also, count ‘em, six Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles chapters, and the cherry on top of all of it was a new Harmonic Resonance chapter that seems to have been well-received.

It’s been a hell of ride folks, and quite fun at times given how well my muse was engaged on these. But for the first time in many weeks, I find myself uncertain what to work on next. Before this, I really, really wanted to get to Cloven War part of the story (never mind the fact I’d promised to do so!), and I accomplished it in grand fashion; I’ve been told by one of my prereaders that this latest, first-combat chapter is one of the best things I’ve ever written. I don’t know about that, but I am quite proud of it, and I do note that it was one of my most replied-to chapters of any story in recent memory.

So needless to say, thanks for all the feedback, folks! And a warm welcome to new readers of the story, and Harmonic Resonance as well. :coolphoto:

I could keep going on Feathered Hearts, of course, but I’ve also had requests to return to Firefly, to get back to work on Unleash the Magic (all three stories), and of course, I have an active clopfic commission underway (Harmonic Resonance) and a languishing anthro novel (My Dominion Academy series) to work on.

I can make arguments for all of them, and I’ll probably do my usual thing of keeping two different classes of stories active just so I can switch between them when I get tired of one type of story. That means a warfic and a clopfic, pretty much. The question then becomes, which ones. The Feathered Hearts C&C/Eros pairing works pretty well, but so does Firefly/Unleash the Magic. And then there’s Harmonic Resonance, which I’m finding I’m enjoying a great deal. For those curious, I’m thinking either Rarity or Pinkie Pie for the next subject of that.

I’ll have to consider it for a bit, but feel free to sound off in the comments what you’d like me to hit next. I do listen to reader feedback, after all, and I think you folks know by know that I do like to deliver a little fanservice. In the meantime... thanks again for helping make these last few weeks a very successful series of new chapter releases. :heart:

At this time I'm feeling for more Firefly chapters. While I like Unleash the Magic Nightmare Night the most it feels as if Firefly has gone the longest without updates. I can't say anything about Harmonic Resonance because I haven't started with it yet.

My vote is more Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles been holding out hope for it since the day D.E.L when dark

As good as the last FH chapter was, I'd like to see you keep going.

I definitely vote for more Feathered Hearts.

Fireflies would be pretty to see get finished but you do any story you want i love all of your stories 💛

I'm enjoying my rereading of Firefly and it would be great to see more chapters there :)

I would say definitely more Feathered Hearts C&C! But, don’t burn yourself out on it.
