I was just looking, and Cubic Zirconia hasn't been updated in almost a year. I promise I haven't forgotten about it.

Hello!

I know I rarely post any blogs. I had intended to at least occasionally do ones about writing progress, but unfortunately, that only works if you actually are making writing progress. Between my own issues, procrastination, and overtime at work, that hasn't really been happening. the longer it's been since I've written anything, the harder it is, too.

Well, that was something.

I mainly thought a reminder might be in order that Cubic Zirconia already says on it that nothing after Season 3 is canon, and that very much includes the latest episode. Spoilers after the break, both for the episode and Cubic Zirconia.

For anyone not reading the spoilers, I'm not planning on trying to work the changes from this episode in, except possibly shoehorned in in au ways...

I probably could have posted this a few days ago, but I didn't want to get anyone irritated with too many blog posts in a short period, and I've also had a really long week, so I was generally pretty tired after work the whole week anyways.

After my last blog post, about Robsa990's fanart for Cubic Zirconia, he saw my suggestion for a scene I personally would like to see, and he decided to draw it:

I just thought I'd share that Robsa990 pmed me a few days ago with a picture he did as fanart for Cubic Zirconia.

Naturally, I've gone ahead and uploaded it to derpiboo.ru as well. Thanks, Robsa990!

I'm sure some of you already noticed this, but I finally did a Cubic Zirconia update. I pretty much finished the chapter this weekend and after making a few changes based on feedback, I saw no reason to delay it more with the massive gap I've had between chapters, even with today being April Fools day.

I hope everyone enjoys the new chapter.

Alright, I suppose I really do owe you all a status report on Cubic Zirconia. Was the last update really released Dec. 6th? Three months, and not much to show, I'm afraid.

So, you may be thinking, alright, arcum, you put your other two fics on hold, now you've got a lot more writing time, so how about an update on Cubic Zirconia?

I thought I'd let everyone know that I did something I've been thinking of doing for a bit.

I've had this picture as a cover for Cubic Zirconia for quite a while:

The next chapter of Cubic Zirconia is currently at 5385 words, and I just typed the last words of the last scene a little earlier. This doesn't mean I'm releasing it right now. I'm still going to look it over a bit more myself when it's not as fresh in my mind, and I usually have Luminary and/or Elric look the next chapter over before I release on Cubic Zirconia. But I just wanted to let you know it's getting there.

I'm not sure anyone will care that much about this, but I've decided to bump Cubic Zirconia's rating up from Everyone to Teen.

Some of the themes of child abandonment, depression, mental stress, etc, probably deserved it anyways, and there's a scene that'll eventually be happening (though quite a ways off) that I can't really picture without one character swearing enough to affect the rating. There may be mention of gambling, too.
