If all goes well and I get it finished and my prereads back in time, that is. There are currently 5500 words written and only the climactic (pun intended) section left. Who's featured this time? All I'll say is that attention will shift away from Sugar Cube Corner for now so yet another Mane 6 member may strut her stuff and continue the chain of corruption, and you'll be able to tell instantly from the chapter title who it is.

Tentatively titled Answers, it's coming quickly now, and will likely release well before September 1st. Which is fine, because that means the second chapter can be reserved for the anniversary of the story's launch. Expect no combat in this chapter but its aftermath, and a tearjerker scene or two including another harmony-fueled song inspired by a certain famous fantasy series.

A teaser was promised. And so it is delivered:

As of this morning, I've written another 17k words of NN content, 11k of which are contained in two completed chapters. They have already been received very well by my first prereader, though admittedly I wrote what he liked the most as a bit of a gift and thank-you to him. Which is not to say I didn't enjoy it myself!

Currently 4300 words down. Will be putting on a big push to get it done this weekend, though it's unlikely to release before next week. But since you've been so patient, here's a teaser:

News that we were planning a counterstrike was an instant morale boost to my beleaguered troops.

Or maybe it was food poisoning; take your pick as the result was the same ()--I'm resuming work on Firefly, with work being done on not one but two chapters. The release of the last one was a roaring success and easily the most popular chapter yet, judging by the number and content of the comments. I'd like to thank everyone who dropped a comment, and welcome new readers to the story as well. Interestingly, the story did NOT feature upon launch of the latest chapter, but

And that means it's teaser season. :)

Have a little sneak-peek at a bit of the new prologue below the break:

Hey all! We're very close to the Sequel's release. However, there's going to be a VERY short three parter that'll come out next weekend (22nd to 23rd of this month so to speak) before the Sequel that I recommend checking out. Now, where can you find this? Much like Welcome To Canterlot High, the Sequel will also be accompanied by its own Short Stories that detail events that happened during the bigger adventure.

With a major denouement planned, this is going to be a big one; maybe reaching 14k words or more before all is said and done. I've still got a lot of writing to do, and I'd rather not break it up into two chapters if I can at all help it. Only reason I would is if it reaches 16k words, which is kind of my unofficial limit on a single chapter.

A teaser? Sure, a brief one. I promised there would be a new perspective on this war, and I'll reveal it here:

The next entry of Eros is finally nearing completion, as I intend to finish the chapter draft tonight and submit it to prereaders. It contains the start of our favorite group’s viewing of Midway, and I did make sure to include some screen captures of the movie with it.

Chapter will launch when it’s in, either tonight or tomorrow night. Aside from that, the chapter is loaded and ready and has already had its editing passes. As I have a good chunk of the next chapter already written, I’ll continue with the story after. And since you’ve been so patient, and the chapter is now a couple weeks late, I’ll offer up a small (sanitized) teaser, showing another example of the google doc-type comment chains I’m incorporating into the new chapter as a narrative device.

Just a warning here, there are major spoilers in this blog considering the new 10 minute teaser released yesterday. Consider yourself warned.

So, first off, here it is:

And WOW, 10 minutes? That's like... half an episode, and a sixth total of the entire movie. Talk about spoilers. But YOLO, I shall watch it.

“The GREAT and POWERFUL Trixie is about to perform a feat of magic SO POWERFUL that every being in the whole of this entire planet would be MESMERIZED! Word of her AMAZING FEAT would lure in an audience so large, not even the world’s LARGEST stadium could fit them all! TRIXIE WILL BE--” She slipped and instantly fell on the top of the stairs and tumbled down. The ground smacked Trixie in the face. A light chuckle was heard in the distance.

The pony game is coming along swimmingly. I'm at a point where I know exactly how to proceed to get things the way I want them, and all that remains is the drudgery of doing it.

I'm not sure when playtesting will happen. I'm tempted to put the entire thing together first, but I'll probably split the difference and start playtesting somewhere in the middle. I'll try to keep the bar update realistic.

I've finished the hero animations for the Earth Pony, Unicorn, Pegasus, Zebra, and Nightwing hero classes. I will likely be tweaking these further by adding more shading texture to the non-Zebra hero images. I might save the shading tweaks until after playtesting begins—I haven't quiet decided yet.

Prologue plus four full chapters are ready as well as two bonus chapters containing the Gryphon War Declaration and Celestia’s War Proclamation. I’ve also started work on the battle and campaign maps, which are admittedly in a pretty rough state right now. Remaining is a single bonus chapter to be posted at the end of the original Rise of Firefly detailing Equestrian and Gryphon rank structure, song selections, and the completion the battle and campaign maps followed by their

Tentatively titled Into the Storm: The Flight of Firefly, This is the story of the first half of the Pony/Gryphon War, and it opens with a bang. Here’s a preview of the prologue:

Of all the ways I thought war with the Gryphons might begin, ‘twas not with an ambush or surprise attack.

For the past week or two, I've been performing an extensive edit to Broken Symmetry in preparation for its EQD feature.

I'm sorry for the delay, but I had one of my worst bouts of writers' block in recent history over the third chapter of the Cloudsdale battle, unable to figure out how it was going to work--how civilians and retired veterans away from the weather factory could or would successfully fight back against the Knights and Ravens. But being down with the flu for the past few days was good for one thing; it gave me plenty of down time to think about it and I'm pleased to say I finally broke through and
