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

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.

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.

Read More

And at long last, after a month-plus of low testosterone and being sick twice, I feel fully ready to tackle it and write some serious clop. I intend this to be the last (major) chapter of the Griffon Kingdom story arc, though some scattered action will continue there even after it.

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.

I've mentioned it on other blogs and batted it around in my head for a bit, but I've decided to come back to Midnight Rising to do a bonus chapter, this one centered around Gilda the Griffon's appearance and experience when she crossed over to confront the human Rainbow. What sparked this was a sudden image I had of her that I wanted to commission from an artist, and from there it turned into a fantasy about how it might have happened in the course of Midnight Rising.

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.

Coming in at 6000 words; it'll be a nearly double-length chapter to close out the Ponyville Post Office story arc. Which is not to say we won't hear from this group again, both in this story and in the parent Nightmare Night adult epic! I'd like to thank AJ_Aficionado for the rapid preread, and I'm pleased to report he liked the stuff I was doing. As for who the focus is on, as there's only one unaltered pony left, it'll have to be Priority Parcel by definition, but making him the center

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.

Read More

I believe that is something that everyone, including my prereaders, have wanted to hear for a while. I have about 1000 words of new content already written, and this next chapter will be critical, not so much for its ending scene (which I intend to be epic) but for getting there properly and building tension for it. I promised everyone an answer as to who the biggest badass in the Equestrian military was, and you're going to get it in a scene I've been planning for some time.

I'm writing for her next, even though she'd find baseball a pointless pastime given pegasi could snag both grounders and fly balls nearly instantly and it would be therefore impossible for an opposing team to get hits.

Got it up over 8500 words now, with probably another 5-6k to go. Yep, gonna be another big one, like all the griffon chapters. Among (many) other things, I’m taking pains to touch on everybody else present so you can get an update on what’s going on with them, including the Shadowbolt girls and our illustrious school heads.

And since I mentioned that I’d be using a new narrative device in an earlier blog, I’ll give you a sneak preview of it, told (as always) through Sunset’s point of view:

Sorry for the delay, but I'm still tweaking it and trying to give prereaders more chance to hit it. Just remember that when it does drop, you'll see three new chapters and not just one. That's because I'll be breaking up the prior chapter into three to make the chapter size more in line with the rest of the story, like I said in a previous blog.

Read More

Wish it were Sunday. That’s my fun day.

Read More

It's looking pretty polished by now and coming in not far short of 13k words, though I keep tweaking it here and there. Even once the preread is in, there'll be a one-day delay so I can create the T-rated version of it. I don't like to do that until I'm satisfied the main R-rated/M-rated version is finished, in order to minimize edits or changes that would otherwise have to be done to two versions of text instead of one.

I have been advised by no less an authority than CHS acting Vice-Principal Ms. Cheerilee to use the upcoming Midnight Rising chapter as strictly a recap to relaunch the story, and not get into Lemon Zest until the following chapter, when I can devote a full entry to it without any split in focus. No, really. She did. You’ll see what I mean when the chapter launches, but basically, I’m going to make this kind of an interlude chapter where I catch new or returning readers back up and

Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I've last been on here. A lot has happened since I last published a new chapter on any story, and I think somewhere along the lines I came down with some kind of writer's block. TMS, for example, I have some idea of where I want to go, but the problem was how to get there. That's pretty much what I'm struggling with right now for that story, and when I'm not working on that, I try to put time in writing UTM, another bonus chapter for TMS, and even

Hey folks... hope you enjoyed the two latest UTM chapters!!!! The story continues to gain readers at a good clip, and just passed the 2000 read mark. I'm very gratified it's been received so well!

Work has proceeded apace on the next Nightmare Night chapter ever since the last one was released, and the next one now stands unfinished at a whopping 12k words with still more to be written.

Read More

Three out of four/possibly five sections and 4200 words are already written; 7500 words seems the most likely total at this point. I'm aiming for a weekend release with Sunday being the most likely day. Sorry to take so long on this one, but work has been a diamond dog mother and then I was on vacation to Las Vegas for a couple weeks. How was it? Weather was spectacular, cool and even a bit rainy at times with the desert in full bloom. Unfortunately, I suffered a drought at the poker tables and
