The last set will be chapters 23-25, with another brief but intense M-rated scene in Part 25. I had intended to release it tonight, but I’m going to delay a couple days to allow my prereaders a chance to catch up to it and give myself a break. So be looking for it this weekend.
3 out of 5 are in with a 4th in progress. And so far they’re quite positive, though I did end up having to excise an 800-word sequence towards the end when at least one prereader objected. I decided after sleeping on it that they were right and it was indeed over the line. That’s why writers need prereaders, folks—to save you from yourself.
Consider it an early Christmas present, though I’m not going to get the next chapter after this done in time for Xmas. But that’s okay—you’ll get nearly 19,000 words in this one. Or I can break it in two to give more bite-sized pieces of clop, releasing them a few days apart. Guess we’ll see how I feel when the time comes.
After a couple false starts, I finally figured out how I’m going to fix the last Midnight Rising chapter and am attacking it with gusto now, though I’ve also been sparing some time to tweak the new Eros chapter that is only awaiting its final prereads.
It’s draft complete and already approved of by the Commissioner except for one minor request; I’m just giving myself the chance to finish it and prereaders a chance to hit the chapter before it posts. Next up in the goddess pantheon is everybody’s favorite pony-turned-human girl, and I’m taking a different approach with her.
Eros just picked up its 150th like! 
Well, I wasn’t planning to update it quickly, but as a thank-you to readers for getting it to that point (even if it backtracks), I think I should write a new chapter.
At this point, I’m strongly considering releasing a T-rated version of the chapter since after rereading it a couple times, I’m thinking it got a bit too R-rated for non-clop readers in a couple places. If so, you’ll see it posted in the next few days.
We’re almost there for C&C chapter 36, but don’t get too excited just yet, folks. Even if the last preread is in tonight, I won’t release because I still have to a) give it two more editing passes, b) create the T-rated version of the upcoming chapter, and then c) edit that. So my target release remains Friday evening, and I’ll have to allow a chance that it may slip to Saturday morning since I also have to get ready for my upcoming road trip this weekend.
Apologies for not having the chapter out this past weekend as I hoped. Unfortunately, work picked up big time last week, requiring me to work extra hours, and the new chapter(s) of C&C I was working with fell by the wayside for a bit while I concentrated on my day job. It might not be letting up much either given we’re trying to hit an end-of-month deadline here, so my writing efforts are likely to suffer a bit. But, gotta pay the bills.
And with apologies, I had to break it up again, meaning the ending M-rated scene will be shunted to the next chapter. For those who were ready and eager for that scene after all the hints I was dropping, my apologies, but the combined chapter had once again exceeded 20k words even with the ending scene not even half-done.
My writing motivation is a bit low right now in the wake of the big push I put on the last couple chapters, and I’m not finding the desire to continue with C&C at the moment except in very small segments. So maybe it’s just best to step away from it and focus on other things for a bit. But I did want to welcome new readers aboard and thank everyone who left feedback, which I always appreciate. It was another successful release and the story continues to accumulate new tracks with likes being a
And you’ll get the next M-rated chapter upgrade on Tuesday, which will be chapter 22: Know Thy Ally. There was a slight change in plans as I elected to include chapter 14: Feathered Heart with yesterday’s initial batch, as I decided it wasn’t fair to make folks wait for the full 5,000 words of Marco’s and Gilda’s first time. Not with the ending of chapter 13 leading right into it.
All you can do is surrender to them and let them have their way with you. But that’s very much to the benefit of readers.
I finished the second Feathered Hearts transition chapter last night, which now tops the scales at 11.5k words, and then charged right into the third one this morning, putting down the first 3200 words on it. This third one ends with the start of the Cloven attack. Expect a rollercoaster within it including some serious mood swings.
Just wanted to let everyone know that Into the Storm has been reorganized into a magnum opus containing several discrete stories as opposed to a single enormous one. The story page and chapter names have been updated to reflect this, with the former now given subheadings that describe the individual stories, while the latter reflects their place in the individual story they're a part of.
Firstly--the new Firefly chapter stands at 6000 words and growing. I still intend to release it on or before New Year's. And secondly... I have tried and failed to get in touch with Gentlemanverse founder and Feathered Heart writer Demon Eyes Laharl, who it appears has pretty much
In a word... whew! I Just want it known that I put on one hell of a push for this, folks, but for as easy as it came, it was joy to do. When your muse is fully engaged, writing becomes fun. Admittedly, having the flu helped, since it meant I could spend working hours on it, and I sure as hell needed the distraction.
Over the years, I’ve found there is an inverse relationship between how much I enjoy writing a clopfic, and how much I can write on it in one sitting. Ironically, but perhaps not surprisingly, the more fun it is, the less time I can spend on it for reasons I’m sure everybody can guess. That’s actually a good sign for the story, for when I enjoy writing something, it tends to turn out quite well, even if it ends up being a bit late.
Aiming to be draft complete tomorrow, at which point we’ll see about a teaser. Graphics will take longer, but it’s a three-day weekend for me, so there’s plenty of time to work on it. One of the perks of working for a bank is we get all federal holidays off, including Presidents’ Day.
I know you’re all anxious for a new chapter of Eros, but I regret to report it won’t happen this month, which is given over to writing for my Unleash the Magic series. I do pledge to have one out before the year’s end, but in the meantime, there might be something to tide you over.
Well, my pre-Christmas week vacation was memorable for all the wrong reasons, given I fell ill last Tuesday and ended up laid out pretty good, down for several days with what appears to have been a bad cold (not COVID, as my home test was negative, and it didn't feel like the flu). It left me miserable and unable to safely travel, especially not with last week's big storm crossing the country with flooding rains followed by howling winds and plunging temperatures—not what you want to deal with
