Sorry for the dearth of info lately, but I’ve been busy with some not entirely pleasant stuff, whose nature I will not divulge. But here’s where my stories stand right now. I’m tagging this Midnight Rising only because it’s first in line for release; I really wish they’d allow us to tag more than one story in blog posts at once.
But I’ll get to that in a second. First, I’d like to once again warmly welcome new readers to the story, and thank everyone who gave feedback. There were plenty of posts along with a lot of discussion and even some outright debate in the comment section. All I ask with regards to the latter is to please keep it civil.
I apologize, folks, but you’re going to have to wait a bit for new content. The reason is that there’s been a lot of not-entirely-pleasant stuff happening to me of late, including a long road trip and a minor medical procedure that took up two days of my time—one that required first fasting and ingesting half a gallon of a very unpleasant substance followed by a lot of sitting. 
Work has picked up as well, and as a result, I’ve had neither much time nor emotional energy to write
The delay is to give at least one more prereader time to catch up and fully review it. It’s more or less ready except for a second editing pass and tweaks, including one final addition for another prereader who requested it.
And sorry to be a broken record about it, but I’ve had a very stressful few weeks both at work and at home I won’t go into further here. Maybe later. The story chapter is part of the stress, given it keeps growing as large as Queen Molyneux as she rises to challenge the Dragon Lord.
With a new chapter of Midnight Rising and the first M-rated entry of Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles done—and I'm pretty sure the former influenced the latter given the ending scene I wrote for C&C!—my erotic writing efforts of October continue with a second Midnight Rising chapter.
With apologies, I tagged the wrong story when I first posted this blog, so I'm reposting it now under the right one. Previous version of the blog post was deleted.
Sometime today I'll be posting a chapter from two stories to show my thanks to you all for sticking by me. I would have put up three chapters to get one story finished, but I didn't have the chance to have the last chapter get a look. So maybe soon I'll put up that chapter as an early "White Christmas" gift. 
The first of several chapters in the runup to Halloween is underway. As I've delayed it long enough, it's time for the resolution of the duel/mating round between Night Owl and Shadowdash, as well as advancing the story further over in Canterlot.
Also, I've just about decided to make a new bonus chapter for the original Unleash the Magic - Midnight Rising, as the new chapter will reference a previously unseen event in it involving Rainbow and Gilda.
As I put the final touches on the Harmonic Resonance epilogue—it will launch tonight, and if you’d like to see what the resulting personality might look like if Twilight and Midnight Sparkle merged, check out the opening section—it’s time to turn our attention to Autumn, to Halloween... and at long last, back to my long-languishing Unleash the Magic stories.
Well, that was a good and productive October, folks. I did everything I said I would, coming out with two new chapters of Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles, two of Midnight Rising, and one of Nightmare Night. So I’m going to try to keep the momentum going into November.
To make a long story short: Five updated chapters (10-14) are now in prereads, and given the amount of text involved, I’ve given my prereaders a full week to work on them. A sixth updated chapter is nearly done (22: Know Thy Ally) and a seventh is planned (25: Battle of Bale, Part 1) by the time we’re ready to go.
It's now with prereaders with the working title of Agni Kai, for its Avatar - The Last Airbender-inspired firebending battle—though that's far from the only thing it references. It's currently coming in at just shy of 16k words, meaning it'll probably be over 17k by the time I'm through with editing passes and all the additional detail I usually add.
Thanks to what I think is severe tendonitis in my elbow due to excessive weightlifting, for which I’m seeing an orthopedist. Nevertheless, it doesn’t stop me from typing, so my writing continues. As promised previously, I’ll be moving right along into the final ascension chapter of Harmonic Resonance involving the human Twilight, which I plan to finish within a week. In fact, I want to finish off the entire story, including the concluding post-ascension chapter, by
I’m waiting a couple more days to give the rest of my prereaders more chance to hit it. Be warned that I did decide to break up the chapter again, so you’ll essentially be getting part 1 of Queen Moly vs Dragon Lord Vesuvius with a lot of additional commentary—and a major revelation or two—from the Humane 6 peanut gallery as Sunset continues to tell the tale.
It’s going to be draft complete by tonight at what I'm guessing will be somewhere around 11k words, at which point it's off to prereaders following one initial editing pass. But as so often happens in my writing, the chapter got too big for its wingboners and I couldn't put everything I wanted into it without doubling the length. I suppose I could do that, but as my general clopfic philosophy remains that heavy M-rated chapters should be careful not to do too much at once, the griffon chapters
Though I’ve been tempted in the past to do joke chapters of my more serious stories for April Fools Day, when it comes down to it, my writing talents simply don’t include effectively pulling off that kind of parody. In fact, the only author I ever knew who was good at that kind of humor was the long-gone and still-lamented Denim_Blue. I asked him once or twice if he could write an April Fools Day prank chapter of Firefly as a guest author of sorts, but he declined and then eventually
... is Testosterone. I think I’ve mentioned before that mine is chronically low, so every four months, I get a fresh infusion of it in the form of implanted pellets a couple inches to the left or right of my tailbone. It starts with a series of lidocaine injections to numb the area for the small incision it requires, meaning Fortrakt would faint to see it. 
Prereads are in, and they’re favorable, with the chapter currently weighing in at 14.8k words. So I’ll be launching the chapter tonight after one more editing pass. And looking ahead, the next C&C chapter is at 7100 words and growing. It’ll probably be double that when all is said and done, at least for the M-rated version. Just as before, the T-rated version will be considerably less, but still have substantial content that shows the (figurative) climax of the Gilda vs Cipio battle, and set
Every once in a while, your muse kicks in, and then you get on this writing roll and can’t stop. Today was a such a day, as I took my new Firefly chapter from 1600 words all the way to draft complete at 9300 words. So at this point, you can expect it to launch by midweek and probably be in the neighborhood of 10.5k words after all prereads are in and all my editing passes are complete. As this is the fifth of six promised chapters by summer, this also means there should be no issue with
