Last two days my insomnia has been ruining everything. I'll get tired, sleep for a rough four hours, with waking up every 30 minutes for no reason. Then I'll need to get up and do something because life doesn't stop for me, then not sleep until next time while being drained all day. I'm trying to work my second delivery job, but I've seen so tired that driving is risky.
Me before work "I'm gonna work on the next chapter of KOTD!"
Me during work *Edits an old chapter or starts to*
Next day
Me before work "I'm gonna edit an old chapter!"
Me at work *Works on next chapter
Next next day
Me before work "I'm just gonna do some writing!"
Me at work *Cleans up notes*
MAKE UP YOUR MIND BRAIN!
It's done! Finally! I really pushed my writing limits on this chapter! I was describing things with words that are...normally purely visual and auditory. It's new ground for me and I hope it flows well. I'm absolutely exhausted and disappointed it took me so long to get it out. That being said, it was fun and I hope you all enjoy it! Thanks again for your patience! Gonna do some more editing on a few older chapters now, so it will be nice taking a small break from new content.

New chapter's done. Will be posting it tomorrow around 5 as usual. Thank you all so much for your patience! After I post this, I'm gonna spend some time doing some more editing on KOTD.
Don't worry, still working on it. I'm just having issues describing the dancing. I'm waiting for a few prereaders to get back to me on whether it makes sense or not. I've never done this before and trying to explain what someone is doing without being repetitive is a nightmare. Thanks again for your patience!
There wasn't much to edit honestly. I found some better words to use and some awesomer descriptions. This is definitely a chapter that gets me pumped and I don't know why I put off editing it for so long.
It's been an interesting time as of late.
Yeah, Ring's Tuesdays and my Wednesdays are both fucked. You'll survive two extra wait days.
We've got another segment of "The Catch" in the bag. Good work, those of you who managed to escape alive.
Tree Hugger as an art model was probably the single most amusing thing in this episode... save for Bulk Biceps. My God, that guy is written like he's a bullhorn starring in its own sitcom.
YEAH! YEAH! YEAHHH, YEAAAHHHH!
And yes, I saw the shipping between Apple Bloom and Tender Taps.

But Ah did it!
Ah sat down, after working on mah Halloween cosplay, and finished proofreading, editing, and getting all the bits situated to finally submit the new story.
Thankfully, Ah'm awesome and proven worthy of Auto-Approval, so more than likely it'll be ready to read within the hour, maybe less.
Definitely will be up by the morning, for sure...barring any unexpected chaos.
Warning: Minor spoilers from the latest episode, Make New Friends but Keep Discord, abound. Proceed with caution.
Oh hey! Fluttershy made a new friend! During the breezie safari. And I'm writing a story about the breezie safari...
...
Remember when I said I like to keep my stories as canon-compliant as possible? Yeah, looks like I have some major revamping to do once I find the time. So much for my whole Fanfiction Foresight schtick.
So I've had a lot of stuff go down recently. My roommates and I are putting up a friend who's fleeing an abusive relationship and it's ...well a bit taxing. since she doesn't have a car. I'm working on the next chapter, but I've hit a snag, mostly due to having no idea how to "write" music. Like how do I describe an entire song, even if it's just drums? Well anyways, next chapter might be a bit late. Thanks for your patience!
I thought it would take me longer to edit this, being 6k words long, but it was rather easy. No major edits. A few clumsy worded sentences here and there. Found like...one typo. Otherwise besides the repeated uses of "I did this" and "I did that" I'm rather happy with this chapter.
So after dealing with a lot of financial crap, work was like "Go take a huge ass vacation."
Chapter 39
Chapter 33:
I spruced up the descriptions some, and changed some wording. A lot of it sounded unclear and awkward so it should flow better now.
Chapter 34:
There were a decent amount of typos and I was rather shocked. They were all technically words, so it might explain why spellcheck didn't catch them. Same deal as before, some descriptions were kind of unclear, and I added in some extra imagery.
Eh, saw several annoying typos and a few places to spruce up the wording. Also there were some unclear actions I was able to tidy up, nothing too serious imo.
This was a longer and more difficult chapter. I spruced up the descriptions and general formatting. there was some stuff that I felt could have been described or worded better. At the end, I added in a character and put in a few more things with General Versa. I might add a bit more later, but for now I'm content with it.
