Or such is the plan. After struggling with it for several weeks around other writing projects, it now stands at just short of 6000 words after I finally got some momentum on it and figured out what I'm going to do with it.

A milestone I'm very happy to reach, some three-plus years after its initial publication. In some ways, it's paradoxical--TLaTU is easily my most unpopular story in terms of like/dislike ratio, yet also my most commented-on one, not counting Turnabout Storm which wasn't originally mine. I daresay it's also my most ambitious and accomplished for bringing the impossible ship to life believably.

Not one, but two chapters near completion. The next chapter of Rise of Firefly is in prereading, and if all goes well, will be released tomorrow morning. Also, the new Unleash the Magic bonus chapter is nearly done; I expect to finish the full draft tonight. I will probably release them on different days, or at least a few hours apart so they don't compete with each other in the feature box, which they both tend to hit.

Aiming for a weekend release. I'm sorry I've gone incognito, but work has been a royal bitch lately, even more so than The Nightmare. No joke, I updated my resume this weekend and put it out looking for feelers. I'm going to try to find a new job.

But... that doesn't stop me from working on the new chapter, which is probably going to be around a nice even 10k words. 7k plus already written, and here's the opener...

It's not quite ready--there still two areas of the chapter to complete--but the long-awaited next part of The Lawyer and The Unicorn will post this weekend, one way or another. It will have two major plot threads, one of which (of course) carries forward from the ending of the last chapter, but the other one...

I asked for ten yea votes to do it, and I got nine. But there were also two yea votes by different readers for the T-rated version for the trial, so counting those, that makes 11. Threshold exceeded, so as promised, a T-rated version of The Lawyer

... after putting 100,000 words in on my other works. The Lawyer and the Unicorn has turned into a decent hit given its subject matter, and I just launched a new story yesterday called Before the Storm: The Rise of Firefly.

Trailer has just been released. And it's looking QUITE good...

New TLaTU chapter is at 7,000 words and growing; it's a very collaborative effort and I think everyone's going to be pleased by its direction. More surprises ahead, and only a little understated M-rated action this time.

A couple weeks ago, I asked if folks would be interested in a T-rated version of The Heart's Turnabout, the trial that takes place during The Lawyer and The Unicorn. I got just three yeas, which was marginal for doing it, while others told me it wasn't worth it.

Within the next few days, most likely, and we will follow up with a second one soon. As we're at a proper point for it, these will be interlude chapters, telling the backstory of two future Bolt Knights, one directly and one indirectly. Who, you may ask...?

Folks, I really have to apologize for my lack of new content and being out of contact over Skype. I have just not been a happy camper these past few weeks, and I'm simply not finding the energy to write or be social with. So what's going on? Work, primarily. For various reasons I've really had to knuckle down over the past month and it has taken a lot out of me. By the time I work, exercise and do dinner I am usually quite moody and just in no mood to do anything except veg out in front of my

Hey folks--I’m sorry for the delay in getting this teaser out. I know I promised yesterday, but work has been very unpleasant of late, with me in no less than ten hours of meetings over the past two days and really sapping my energy and time to work on this. But better late than never, here it is...

... and will likely be finished within the next few days as It’s coming pretty quickly. Will be aiming for a midweek release. As promised, this chapter will not be clop, but rather, one last round of worldbuilding before the grand finale to follow, much of it taking place over a chess match between Edgeworth and Celestia. Among other things, you’ll learn some very interesting facts about Celly and her role in on Earth over the centuries, such as:

As work proceeds on Firefly book 2, I am also working towards a new TLaTU chapter release. Part 33 currently stands at just north of 6000 words, and I have an eye on publishing it this weekend, most likely Sunday. What kind of chapter will it be? A mixture of sexytimes and summer fun involving the Fairgrounds, a Ferris Wheel, and some evening music. I have one last surprise to spring that will be hinted at here, but you'll have to wait one more chapter to get it. Expect this chapter to be

All prereads are in. Will publish chapter 32 tonight or tomorrow morning. Just need to write the author’s notes and get some musical selections added. As promised, the focus comes back to our favorite couple, and like all ending chapters will be quite adult.

As a bonus, expect cameos by a couple of notable Ace Attorney characters not yet seen. Aside from that, heavy TwiWright action ahead!!!! I cut loose on this chapter, so be afraid, folks...

Well, it's been 10 days since The Lawyer and The Unicorn (T-rated version) was released, and the response to it has been extremely tepid at best. To this point, in fact, it's underperformed even my low expectations, garnering less than six comments and an even worse upvote-to-downvote ratio than TLaTU-M. I wasn't expecting a blockbuster performance by a T-rated rerelease of an already-completed M-rated story, but I also didn't think that readers would be so few.

Along with new cover art. This includes one brand-new chapter--a second prologue. Basically, the first prologue chapter shows Phoenix's perspective of Twilight's arrival, while the new second one shows Twilight's:

Hey, folks. After eighteen months of hemming and hawing about it, I'm finally doing the promised updates and major editing pass to The Lawyer and The Unicorn. The early chapters especially need the latter as I read some of the stuff I wrote back then and wince. No more violet unicorns, more showing and less telling, and fewer ellipses, which I had tendency to severely overuse back then.
