Hope everyone had Happy Holidays! · 7:41pm Jan 4th, 2019

Hey, folks. Apologies for not getting a new Nightmare Night chapter posted as I said I would over the winter holidays, but I've found I was simply burned out on it and needed to step away from it for a while. Sex scenes, while enjoyable, can also be surprisingly stressful to write.

Flight of Firefly - part 14 in progress · 7:25pm Feb 5th, 2019

It's just started, with the first 500 words down, but I've already worked out battle progression, which is what was giving me fits before. Best guess is it'll be a finished draft around V-day and launch the following weekend. So what to expect?

Just a quick note to readers of Firefly... · 2:58pm Jun 8th, 2021

There is a poll I posted on an earlier blog against Feathered Hearts: Continuation and Chronicles asking what I should work on next. As I decided it was unfair to tag that story but exclude my others, I’m posting additional blogs for readers of my other active stories as well. If you want to sound off, you can do so

Firefly update · 7:38pm Jun 23rd, 2020

Well, folks... some time ago I mentioned that there was a project to produce a voice-acted version of the first few chapters of Rise of Firefly. The project is nearing completion, and the first teaser trailer has just been released:

He's put a hell of a lot of work in on this, so give him a like and drop a comment if you can.

Work on Firefly continues · 8:42pm Mar 18th, 2020

After two quick chapter releases. it’s once again a question of momentum--I have it, so let’s continue with it. Hope you folks enjoyed the two chapters in 5 days! Coming attractions? Well, for starters, the gryphons ready their renewed offensive while back in Cloudsdale, Typhoon isn’t done with Thunderbolt yet and engages in negotiations with the Nightborne on behalf of the Princess. If I’m particularly ambitious, It’ll be time for another map as well.

Nightmare Night resumes soon · 6:40pm May 28th, 2020

After writing six chapters over the past two and half months for Into the Storm: The Flight of Firefly, I'm heading back over to Nightmare Night to resume work there in a few days. But first, I need some down time after the heavy push I put on the last two Firefly chapters, which contained some very difficult action and exposition scenes. I also need to reset my focus and mindset from warfic to clopfic.

Coming November Attractions... · 4:46pm Nov 9th, 2017

For fans of Into the Storm: The Flight of Firefly, I will be aiming for a new chapter release this weekend or early next week, depending on how quickly I can get the rest written. The new chapter currently stands at 3500 words and should be at least double that length by the end. Expect it to be the second part of a three-chapter arc dealing with the Empire's first-day attack on Cloudsdale, and as promised previously, it will be told from a new point of view, the identity of whom

Thoughts on thestrals and bat-ponies · 4:39pm Jan 18th, 2019

As anybody who has read my stories knows, thestrals figure just slightly prominently. Five Stars had a thestral herdmate who later became a famous singer, Fell Flight has thestral eyes and ancestry in Firefly, and over in Nightmare Night...

Well. Anybody who reads that knows what's happening there. :twilightsmile:

Take it from me, folks... · 9:50pm Mar 26th, 2020

Nothing is ever as bad--or as good--as it first seems. So do yourselves a favor and don't obsess over Coronavirus; checking news feeds and numbers constantly. It won't change anything and the overly-sensationalistic (and often false) coverage won't accomplish anything except to heighten anxiety. This thing will run its course and we'll come out the other side of it in decent shape; in the meantime just take care of yourselves and take what precautions you can.

Work on Firefly continues · 2:49pm May 4th, 2020

I had planned to shift over to Nightmare Night after this latest chapter, but I find myself with momentum on the story again after a successful release--I really enjoyed the comments this time, folks; they told me I hit the mark I was aiming for on this chapter quite well--and a scene I very much want to get to.

Merry Christmas! Happy Hearth's Warming! · 2:24am Dec 26th, 2020

And for readers of Firefly, your presents are as follows:

1. The next Firefly chapter, tentatively titled Rock of Equestria, should be draft complete this weekend and be off to prereaders. Afterwards, I need to create the promised graphics before I release it. Total length will probably be around 9000 words or so as we start into the battles around Maresk and the struggles of the Equestrian Army to escape envelopment and bloody the gryphons a bit five days into the war.

Flight of Firefly - Part 13 will be launched this weekend · 3:31pm Jan 23rd, 2019

Tentatively titled "Cavern Clash", which should give some clue as to its contents, it currently stands at 5200 words and climbing; I suspect it will be at around 8k when all is said and done. As I started into it, I realized I had yet to address a nagging question leftover from the first book--namely, what happened to the two Ravens captured at Epsilon the evening before the war? You know,

New Nightmare Night chapter will be released on Sunday · 3:23pm Jan 10th, 2019

It currently stands at 8500 words and will likely be over 10k when all is said and done. For that reason, I’m considering splitting it into two parts to give the climactic third section its own chapter and focus, same as I did for the Blossomforth/Cloud Kicker scene. We’ll see what my prereaders say on that score. If so, I’d simply release the two halves a couple days apart, and don’t worry; the second section has some sexytimes of its own!

What to do, what to do... · 3:01pm Jan 13th, 2021

I'm sure everyone has an opinion on what I should write next as we go forward into the New Year. On the one wing, I just left Firefly off on a massive cliffhanger after introducing a major new character, who will become the face of the Equestrian Army during the war. On the other, Midnight Rising remains to be updated, and I know my newest followers are anxious for news about when I'll be

Firefly part 26 is draft complete · 11:50pm Apr 30th, 2020

I think I've figured things out for the issue I mentioned in the last blog post, though this chapter will only represent the first part of the setup for what is coming. Currently coming in at 9632 words, the chapter will launch as soon as prereads are in and I can make some musical selections. In the meantime, have a preview, told from Firefly's perspective:

Into the Storm Book 3, chapter 7 into prereads · 1:22am Aug 30th, 2021

Titled When Friendships Falter, AJA and I have completed collaboration on it. It’s now in the hands of our other two prereaders, Silentwoodfire and Silverblade5.

What this means is it will launch as scheduled on September 1st, and it currently musters a healthy 10.3k words. It’s time to hear from the Highborne again, and learn what happens when an equally infuriated Fell Flight and Firefly come to blows over Gavian and Thunderbolt. Here, have a teaser:

Diminishing Returns on Firefly · 2:57pm Jun 13th, 2022

I’ve noticed before that when I release multiple chapters of the same story in rapid succession, the later chapters tend to do more poorly than the initial ones in terms of views and comments. Such was the case here as the fifth Firefly chapter was released with very little apparent interest. There were only three comments on the content, and two of them were to complain about my choice of closing quote. :facehoof:

August Outlook: TLaTU revamp and Firefly · 6:18pm Aug 2nd, 2019

Just wanted to let everyone know that in the first half of the month, I'm going to start a revamp of The Lawyer and The Unicorn, giving it the same attention and treatment I gave Turnabout Storm last year. That means edits, cleanup, fixes, and even the possibility of some new content.
