Good afternoon, everypony! Well, after far, far, FAR too long a wait since my last chapter was posted, I am pleased to announce that the next chapter of "Batmare Begins" (and yes, it stars Derpy Hooves for those in this group who were wondering) should be posted in the early afternoon next Sunday if all goes according to plan. I just need to run it by my editor and polish it up a bit, but other than that, it is just about ready for posting.

I want to thank all my followers again for showing so much patience, and I apologize that I was not able to get this chapter up sooner. For those of you who've never checked out "Batmare Begins" before, I'm always happy to get new readers and followers, so feel free at your own discretion to check it out here. I hope it proves well worth the wait for you all, but until then, this is Batbrony signing off. I'm off! *cue dramatic exit*
