A warm welcome to any and all new Feathered Hearts readers, folks, whether you read Eros or just Continuation and Chronicles. I hate calling those two latest Eros chapters an ordeal, but they were at times simply for much I was trying to do and how much I wanted to include, both in terms of sex and worldbuilding. It took over a month to write what ended up being all 25,000 words, though it seems to have turned out well in the end.

I promised that once the Griffon Kingdom arc of Midnight Rising was finished, I would try to do a single chapter of Continuation and Chronicles before working on Nightmare Night. So here we go. Thankfully, I already have about 7000 words to work with that I removed from the ending of the previous chapter. So hopefully, it won’t take too long. I guess it depends on how easily I’m able to ease back into it after five months since the last chapter.

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.

Fallout Equestria: The Angels of Oasis is going to be held back until late evening Wednesday or early Thursday as a result of unfavorable front page conditions. There are three brand new FoE sidefics sitting in the new box, a strong number 1 story and An Intricate Disguise posted some trend-riding RGRE-HiE clopfic. Posting any new story for the next three days is playing Russian Roulette with a Fat Man.

Even a lightsaber-wielding Ron Paul is excited to know that not one but two Firefly chapters are on the way, and both are draft complete. One by me, and a guest chapter by our good friend and Changeling guru Denim Blue.

First and foremost, 🎇Happy New Year, folks! 🎇And second, the first preread of C&C Chapter 38 is in and favorable, courtesy of Silentwoodfire—thanks, SWF. Hopefully the rest will be as well. But while we’re waiting for that, I’d like to go back to Eros for a bit, both to work on and wonder if I made a mistake by releasing the first part of the new Changeling arc as one big chapter.

I’ve given them a week to hit it, and I’ve already started into into a brand new chapter, with the first 500 words down. At long last—and sorry again for the long sideshow there; I will address that directly in the first part of the text as Sunset gets dinged by creative writing instructor Ms. Cherilee for letting her narration lose focus—it’s time for Midnight to deal with Lemon Zest. Probably going to be a two-parter this go-around, but we’ll see.

Final preread is in—thanks, Silverblade5. So all that’s left is a final editing pass followed by creating the T-rated version. It shouldn’t actually be much shorter than the regular one, as sex does not take center stage here.

Draft ready and will be posted as soon as it has a prereader seal of approval--including a surprising one from my good friend AJ_Aficionado! Look for it this weekend. This will be the longest chapter yet, and definitely have some surprises! You already know who's getting it in this time, but just how it happens may surprise you... Zesty is indeed the worst of the shadowbolt bunch, as will shortly become plain. What else to expect? More WTF Pinkie moments, a couple surprise cameos... and

But it will probably be a few more days yet. Currently sitting at 10k+ words, but the chapter is only about 2/3rds done. It's tentatively titled The Attorney and The Earth Pony, which, yes, is a deliberate play on the title of a certain other story I do.

That's right, folks. The second half of the great crossover involving a certain famous fictional lawyer is going to prereaders and currently tips the scales at 11,574 words. Will Five Stars get her man and first Gentleman? Or are his wounds simply too deep?

Awaiting final preread before posting. Titled "Midnight Daydream", this is the climactic chapter in more ways than one, folks... you all wanted SunLight, you're going to get it. In spades. It's going to be the longest chapter of the story, and quite deservedly.

A teaser? Well... okay. But nothing suggestive. That's best saved for the full chapter so it can hit full force.

But writing motivation has been lacking as issues in my personal and professional lives have picked up. For the latter, I've worked a slew of additional hours the last couple weeks, and on the home front, I've got a painful shoulder and knee as well as a home desktop that just failed and requires replacement.

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.

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:

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.
