IN WHICH TOPICS ARE FOR LOSERS
I have another new story almost ready, and I'm not even participating in NaNoWriMo!
It's a sequel to Two of Swirls, so I've updated the last three paragraphs of the prequel to fix what new canon broke.
It's coming...
#10th Blog. Every 10 blogs, I'll tell you a little bit about myself. Here's the little bit for the first 10: I am only 15 years of age. Totally didn't say that so that people would be gentle when I get the inevitable hate-comments on this blog and/or upcoming story.
WARNING: HEAVY LANGUAGE AHEAD!
New story won't be today, but it'll be soon. I have to finish editing now that it's ported to Fimfiction.
Family-friendly, in a manner of speaking.
Will it be super-controversial as before? Buck if I know. I no longer lay claim to the pulse of normal people.
Currently I have three projects on the front burner.
I completed the first two side story chapters in under a week, typing in the 12,000 words between them like rapid-fire from a Marine M249 Squad Automatic Weapon (SAW) on my keyboard.
I’m forced to break one chapter into two, because it got too big. The next Feathered Hearts chapter was already well over 17k words and probably on its way to 20k, which is a lot more than I typically allow in a single entry. It also had a natural breakpoint mid-chapter, so I elected to make use of it. This means you will be getting not one, but two new Feathered Hearts chapters in short order, each around 10.5k words each.
I’m sorry it’s taken so long, but this has been one of those chapters that just does NOT want to come quickly. It’s certainly been fun to write in places, but I’ve only been able to write a little on it at time. Regardless, the completed chapter stands at 7500 words and will be published tomorrow morning. No further teasers except to say it’s got a very unlikely ship, one that I daresay has never been explored before but makes perfect sense in the context of how this thing works. You’ll get a
So after a long, thumb-numbing vacation, I'm finally back and I believe it's finally time to announce the title for the upcoming fall release. The good news is... Season 6 Part 2! Who couldn't be excited for that? Anyway, I'll end this off with another teaser image. This may be the last one concerning the Fall Release, but you can still check out my Deviantart and Twitter just in case. (I made a few teasers that didn't make the cut. I'll be posting them there.)
3. Rainbow Dash
Dash and Anon spend the afternoon playing a popular video game she got from Manehattan, Them's Fightin' Herds. Dash never played video games before but surely, it can't be too difficult. She can totally kick Anon's butt. Hopefully, the human won't be too distracting...
4. Rarity & Fluttershy
It's coming...
Here's the result of madness, sparta, and Fallout 3 and the fallout 4 hype train.
Enjoy!

Last time I wrote one of these I was all braggy about managing to do a SotA two months in a row. And I was going to do a post for New Year, and . . . aw, what the heck, it’s not too late yet.

I've been sick for two weeks, but I'm doing better now. And I have some big news.
But first, smaller news.
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.
