First, I have a new Feathered Hearts - Continuation and Chronicles chapter in prereads, but even when the edits are in, I’m not going to release it yet. I promised before that I would not release more until I got the story written to the start of the Cloven War, at which point I’ll release the chapters in rapid-fire, one per day or every other day. I expect that to happen by Christmas if not sooner. Consider it my Xmas gift to readers, if so.

And not helping is the fact I had a recent health scare I'm still recovering from.

Getting up for work this morning was a bit rough, even three days after my return from Vegas and the three-hour time difference from there to here.

Though I’d hoped to have it draft complete by the previous weekend, the final ascension chapter of Harmonic Resonance is coming quite slowly, for the reason stated in the title. I’m only 5k words into it even after a week-plus, and I rather suspect that’s going to end up being less than half the size of what’s probably going to end up being a 12k-word chapter.

Harmonic Resonance Chapter 7 - Twilight Part 1/2 will launch on Sunday morning, likely weighing in at around 10.5k words. For all the trouble it gave me, it seems to have come together pretty well in the end as I’m more or less satisfied with it. I’m just waiting for word from the commissioner and a couple prereaders.

Hello again, dear Brethren.

Today I come to you with some news about a reading I did previously from an author named Pabrony, the story in question titled as Dark Sunset. A while ago, I was talking with Pabrony on YouTube, discussing the matter of Dark Sunset's rewrite in which it has been remastered and improved from the first version. I ended up promising that I'd look into recording it one day if I ever got the chance, so long as I gave him a heads up.

... In the form of a new Feathered Hearts: Continuation and Chronicles chapter which has just been sent off to prereaders. So get ready to ring in the new year with the start of a new story arc that picks up after the events described in the latest chapter of Eros. It’s back to business—mostly—but the new chapter will recap events in the Eros arc (including the as-yet unreleased chapters there) and start laying the groundwork for the next phase of the story, which will

Let’s start with some good news. AJ_Aficionado is now a week-plus removed from his procedure, which basically kinks his lower esophagus like a spiral sink trap right above the stomach to prevent acid backwash. He reports he has some minor reflux after surgery, which is said to be normal and should disappear with time along with the post-operative pain. He went home at least briefly, but is staying with family for at least as long as he needs to remain on a liquid diet.

It seems I have another issue to address.

I have to admit, I’m regretting doing the griffon arc right now. For as much fun as it was for me to write, it should have been a side story given how much of a distraction it turned into. And even those who liked it continue to complain about even the revamped ending, wanting the dragons to have won.

After receiving pleas from multiple readers to keep the Enter the Griffon chapters in place, I have decided to do so and go with my original plan, which was to simply offer new readers the chance to skip over them when they come and then write the current chapter to catch anybody who does skip

Based on some events that transpired not too long ago and from some thoughts in my head, I bring this to you. Word of warning, it's a little close to home.

The next chapter of Nightmare Night is well underway and currently coming at a slow to moderate clip. I've got 6100 words down so far and as these are the story's climactic chapters, there's a good chance that this will double that length before all is said and done. I think now that the entirity of the Sunset/Twilight duel will be done in one chapter as opposed to two, though.

Much as I didn’t want to, I made the decision to break it up since the full length of the War Council meeting had exceeded 20,000 words and will probably approach 25k for the now-two chapters before all is said and done. The breakpoint itself will be between learning about the general war situation both Aricia and the Griffon Kingdom face, and then discussing what in all the Crows they’re going to do about it.

Here is now the promised announcement of the release schedule for "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity", the spiritual successor of "Aunt Millie" I talked about here!
Currently, I am still busy revising the first chapter, which is taking much longer than I thought, since I could find a lot of errors in there and keep finding new ones.

Wooo~

There's not much else to put here. Enjoy the story.

Y’all may have noticed that one, it was in the feature box. Technically not a not-a-contest submission, but Jetty does work for the EPA, so that ticks a box.

We all love seaponies (we do, right?) because they’re adorable.

The next chapter of Nightmare Night now stands at 6500 words, with four completed sections and two half-finished ones. The latter, to little surprise, are the CMC scenes. They were coming along agonizingly slowly until I found the proper angle for them. Like Rarity, they needed proper treatment that respected their characters and even let them shine. Is that possible here? Based on what I came up with, yes! But no spoilers there.

Well, folks, two new chapters of the Feathered Hearts main and side stories are in progress, with the former just started and the latter in prereads, aiming for a Wednesday evening release. Sorry for the delay, given I really did want to get it done in time for publishing on Sunday morning. But the reason is that quite simply, the new Eros chapter is one of the longest clop chapters I’ve ever written, topping the scales now at 12,700 words. I had to work all weekend on it just to

I have two releases targeted for September. One is a second chapter of Midnight Rising. The other, Feathered Hearts fans will be happy to know, is a fresh chapter of Continuation and Chronicles. Feels about time to write it.
