So, the hints for my observation that the attack by King Sombra was just a giant ruse by Celestia and Luna to test Twilight and her friends before they retire that I expected to see in this episode weren't there. But nothing that contradicted my observation either, so I'm still on point with it.
I am not satisfied with the views of "Dreamwalker Dash". It did get a lot of favourites already (least, for my current level of popularity), 39 in total, and the overall reception is something I can compare with the success "Princess Flurry Heart, Destroyer of Worlds!" was. Minus the comments, there is far less discussion about it. But my fic for Flurry Heart started with a
I just finished Chapter 13 with almost 7,000 words..... Tomorrow will see a bit of tweaking and proofreading, but the chapter is for the most part ready for release. Expect it tomorrow, at the usual release time of 10:00 PM EST.
Stay easy as a filly!

Have you ever looked below the cute and innocent surface of a pony? If so, what did you find? Was it the cuteness you saw on the outside? Did you find the same cuteness in the soul of a pony? Or..... did you find something darker, something scary and twisted, in the souls of some ponies?
So, the short of it is, I suddenly don't feel too well. Mentally. I started the day joyous, but now that we got..... the confirmation that Generation 5, the entire show, will be full CGI, not just the movie that starts it, no, indeed the entire Generation 5 show, I..... That..... leaves me in shambles at the moment in a way I cannot explain, it's too complex to understand. I need to calm from that shock for a bit now..... At the moment, I cannot finish the chapter.

One day late and now Chapter 8 of "Dreamwalker Dash" is here! Do you know what a skinwalker is? If you do, then you can tell that scary times are ahead and you can be sure that this story earns its "Dark" tag. If you don't know what a skinwalker is, well..... then you might not even want to know.
But no matter if you want to know or not, this chapter will not spare you from hearing about them..... Chapter 8 awaits with "The Skinwalker from the Everfree Forest":
It's been a while since the last chapter of "Letters to Cozy Glow". Patreon preparations and depressions put it on a slight hiatus, but tomorrow, it will return in all its glory and we continue to delve into the mind of Cozy Glow, youngest world-conquering villain in the history of Equestria!
And it's Stygian who will write her this time, which turned out be a pretty epic letter! Get hyped!
Well, I officially failed to deliver the new chapter in time. I would say "I half expected it", since I'm only starting to bring the story back and I'm still in the process of bringing my schedule into full order after there wasn't as much progress with that as there could have been last year, but the circumstances that lead to a very minor delay now were actually very unexpected.
"Dreamwalker Dash" is fully revised. With that, something that has been a long time coming, but got delayed and delayed because of depression, is finally done. And now everyone who waits for the return of the story for more than 8 months now wants to know what is going to happen now and I will give you this information right away without a long foreword, because you all waited long enough for this story to finally get continued:
I'm pretty beat. The heat, rather strong headache, increased pulse, colors flashing in front of my eyes..... The new chapter might come only tomorrow because of that. I've started writing it, but I don't know if I can finish it today.
I'll tell you more once I know more.
Stay easy as a filly!

Progress has been made, a large amount of it. Chapter 2 of "Dreamwalker Dash" is now fully revised. Took me about 8 hours to do it, but it was very much worth it. I could fix so many errors and sentences that were less than optimal.
I need to make this short, because I am already very tired today due to remaining exhaustion after the long writing sessions to finish "Pinkie Pie's Hearth's Warming Vacation" in time for its release, but I want you to know about this.

Do I sound frustrated in this blog entry title? If that's how it comes across, then that's probably because I am. There have been nasty things that slowed this story down, mostly heavy depressions. Thankfully, the story is not dead and I am in a better mental shape to work on it again and finally finish this darn revision of the current chapters.
I missed typing that word. Cozy Glow has arrived in 2020 and that means that, as announced, "Letters to Cozy Glow" returns today!
We're finally nearing the end of the introduction round, with only Discord and Tempest Shadow, who have to introduce themselves to Cozy, left! And today it is Discord's turn to write Cozy Glow a letter.
I have decided to move another "Dreamwalker Dash" chapter release to Thursday. I spent the better part of yesterday and Monday with digging into the most recent Generation 5 news and I have done as much as I could to try and finish the chapter today. But since it is getting late and I will be occupied with something else for the rest of the night, I will finish writing the chapter tomorrow.
Another week and another chapter for "Letters to Cozy Glow"! Unlike "Dreamwalker Dash" for which I announced a delay yesterday, this chapter isn't delayed. Writing it was a bit of a strain today still, but I pushed through it.
So, since I had to miss the perfect release on the 2nd Anniversary of "Dreamwalker Dash", and therefore the chapter won't come out on the anniversary anymore no matter what I do, I am taking some more time with the chapter to make sure it's good.
