Hey everyone! Another chapter up today, bringing us to number eight of [REDACTED]! I've been enjoying the comments, how have all of you been enjoying the story thus far? How's everyone enjoying Blade and her cohorts? Any favorite characters cementing themselves yet?
Just a quick fimfic update for you all. Alpha is about two-thirds of the way done. Then the beta starts, and then it can be released! I'll be picking a day soon. The Dusk Guard are coming!
In the meantime, I figured I'd drop some future info on you, since I've got a tentative title down for the fifth part of the saga at last. So I can officially release that the titles of books four through six are:
Yeesh, I know you guys have been waiting a while for this. And to be fair, it's taken me far too long to sit down and do this. And of course, now I have more unwelcome news ... but not what you would expect, I think.
Anyway, you know what, let me just announce the winners nice and fast, and then we can get to the unwelcome news.
I'm tagging Rise this time rather than Beyond, since one is a sequel to the other, and art from the series is the theme of the contest, rather than the story.
Just a quick, mid-week reminder of The Dusk Guard Saga fan art contest!
Here's the recap, for those who missed it:
The Contest
All right, I know it's been a few days and I haven't posted anything. Reason? I've been keeping myself very busy trying to get Unusual Events one step closer to publication, dealing with real life issues (both financial and of living space), the occasional bit of fun ... and then once again seeing the split between Fimfiction and my other site. There have been three posts over on Unusual Things since Monday, btw, including another
So, I figure I out to put my few pieces of pony fan art on a blog. While I've post them on the respective author's blogs, I really should have them here, too.

It is now over and done! The Beyond the Borderlands Character Poll Results have been updated to their original post here! Thanks everyone for voting!
Oh, and a new chapter is hitting in a few seconds. Are you ready?
Woo! Back from my dental check-up! Turns out, my teeth are clean! Clean enough to eat off of! Huzzah! Just one more bit of good news for the week. Finished up another novella yesterday (the second, now, to be part of the "short" story collection Unusual Events) and hit my quota for the month (90,000 words) so things are looking good going into August. Finish up another story or two, get Alpha and Beta readers pouring over Unusual Events and Colony, get covers, and ...
In-Progress Alpha readers, chapter 5 is now up. You know who you are. And what to do!
Three Days Left!
Not counting today, there are only three days left to submit your work for The Dusk Guard Saga Art Contest!
Four items of news today, folks! All of it good!
You know that old saying “No news is good news?” Well, I have been a little quiet over the last few weeks.
Sorry for the delay folks! Finishing off Hunter/Hunted was a priority, but the January Patreon Supporter Reward is now up and ready for viewing!
It’s behind the scenes stuff. Not that spoilery, either, though some might find it a little spoilery. But I tried to make sure it wasn’t too bad.
All right guys, it's been an interesting week. Which is putting it mildly. Given the rapid-fire swing from stress to panic to shocked and grateful relief I've had this week, it'd be remiss to mention it in a post about good news, because, well ... I'll just flat-out say it: You guys are incredible.
Just a quick alert! The first entry into The Dusk Guard Saga Art Contest has appeared! Entry courtesy of Bugsydor!
The Question
It took all of three days from the time The Dusk Guard: Beyond the Borderlands first appeared on Fimfiction for someone to make a comment wondering and predicting when the Dusk Guard were going to show up.
Well, this is certainly a thing that has happened.
So folks, you may be wondering “Hey, what’s this? A post? Yes indeedy. Am I back? Well … no. Sands, I’m typing this on a borrowed laptop, via a hastily-built guest account.
60,000 words.
That's how little I have left to edit on this Alpha pass of Colony. 60,000 words. Considering the story itself is 333,000 words, that's not much. A day or two worth of work, no more. Then I've got to run through and make some noted changes to air pressure in a few marked chapters, and then ...
All right guys, this one is just for fun!
Inspired by recent comments about how Blade was rapidly rising to be one of many readers favorite characters, followed by reactions to Barnabas's heart-to-heart with his sister in the most recent chapter, I've got a quiz for all of you!
It's an easy one. And there are no wrong answers. Well ... maybe.
Readers of all ages, I give you ...
