The next chapter of Hand in Hoof is done, for the most part. I simply need to finish working out the kinks with my editor and I'll be able to post it.

However, I should confess that you likely won't be seeing an update in July, but this time, it's not simply because I'm a slow writer at times.

It's actually because I've just started Camp NaNoWriMo!

I want to do a session where this weekend you spend 24 hours doing nothing but writing. (You can do stuff like eating of course ) but basically just lock yourself in the house and work on stories. I'm hoping to get others for
1) Help, in case you reach writers block
2) Motivation to keep going
3) Someone to talk to while writing
I'm going to start Saturday (3 days from now) at midnight, and go for 24 straight hours.

One massive writing session under my belt (2600 words in one shot!), and now we finally get to something I have had planned for over a year! Tell me what you think, and always be sure to comment and share if you enjoy my story! Nearly halfway done with NaNo!

I failed.

The goal was 50,000 words. I managed 21000.

Despite this, I feel proud of myself. I wrote more in this past month than the total amount I have written in fanfiction.

Given that I started from a blank slate with a few notes, getting to 21k is a decent push for an amateur like me. Further, I can continue writing it. If I keep writing, I could have it done and edited by February 2018.

Looking forward to it.

And so it all comes together. I did something a bit different for this finale where I tried to keep as much heavy lore stuff out of it as possible. I figured enough of that had been revealed during the course of this part, and I ultimately wanted this to focus on the resolution for Cadance and her motivations before we move into what I am going to be calling the penultimate arc (boy, that's satisfying to type out after all these years).

And Sun's side continues! What is going to happen now that he's in the Swamp, where more questions than answers are cropping up? Come have a read and see!

Thanks again for the readership, and remember to like and comment!

So, this is my april update my angels. This will be a short little one actually. I changed my NanoWriMo Project to being "The Life of a Songbird" instead of the novel I want to do because quite frankly I want to get this finished. So without further delays this is the status of the sequel to Makings of a songbird as of today:

Prologue: 2,551 / 2,500 words
Chapter 1: 4,537 / 7,000 Words
Chapter 2: 1,010 /11,000 words
Chapter 3: 5,028 / 5,000 words
Chapter 4: 0 / 5,000 words

So, while trying to write for my NaNoWriMo project, I struggle to get even 500 words a day (one-third of the target, for anyone who's counting).

When the latest meme sparked by Obs gives me a stupid idea, I can write 2100 words in under two hours, while giggling at my own stupid jokes the entire time.

Attention deficit disorder strikes ag—oh, hey, a bit!

And as is my yearly tradition, I'm working on both my pony stuff and my original works. I am currently at a little over 11k words, hoping to get to 12k tonight. This will - with hope - get me to a point where ch 9 will be ready to go, because as I've mentioned ch. 10 is ready to go, but I should think that y'all might like to read them in order.

Just bear in mind that there might be an eensy bit more of a wait after those two go up.

Okay, I'm feeling betterish right now, at least to a point where I can communicate without a wall of emotions twisting anything I could potentially type.

Here's a cute picture of Sunset. After the break, you can listen to me talk for a second. If you want.

And now the beginning of Starlit's half of Part V! I agonized over a pretty key scene in this chapter for a while, but I think it all came out really well! Enjoy, and don't forget to comment if you enjoyed it!

Man, who'd ever ever guessed I'd get to fifty whole chapters of this! When I first had this idea, I thought I'd have finished it by chapter 30 at best, but here we are, over four years and fifty chapters in! Thanks again so much for reading and liking and commenting, and strap in for some twists and turns here, folks!

So, Sun's last chapter ended with… something, huh? Let's take a moment to deal with that in this chapter, why don't we? Don't forget to like and comment, and thanks as always for your readership!

Reunions and whatnot, something poetic about that, more Alicornae! Sorry if this blog post seems a little terse, it's just that all my creative juice is going to the story right now. Speaking of which, enjoy!

Do you want feels and lore? Because I've got some feels and lore for you in this next installment of Alicornae! Enjoy, don't forget to comment, and here's to getting over 10,000 words into NaNo!

Boy did a lot of stuff happen last chapter! How about we take a break from all that mess and see what Rainbow and Sun are up to? Enjoy this next chapter, I think you'll find some fun stuff in there

Explanations are given and hearts are mended in this next installment of Alicornae, so come get it while it's fresh! I nearly made myself cry a couple of times while writing it, so I'm sure it'll get a few of you misty eyed as well.

And back to Sun's side! I wanted this to be a bit of a quieter chapter after Starlit's big one last chapter, so expect to have some good old fashioned character development! Except… well, let's just say I did a thing I wanted to do three years ago but didn't really think I had the stones to do then. Guess for yourself what it might have been!

Thanks again for the readership, and don't forget to like and comment!
