[Reversal of Fortune] Final Words · 3:20am Nov 27th, 2015
Well that's it, I guess. No more waiting for me to upload a new chapter that takes unreasonably long.
Well that's it, I guess. No more waiting for me to upload a new chapter that takes unreasonably long.
It's 2:50AM and I just finished the final chapter for Reversal of Fortune. I'm a little tired.
All I have to do now is finish up the epilogue, and the story's done. Should be out within a week!
And don't forget about the bonus Author's Notes chapter that'll release once I clean it up a little bit so it's actually readable for anyone that wants to see it.
It's 1:11AM but that's cool because I finished the chapter yeah! It's double the original planned wordcount, which is why I should never estimate wordcounts, and it's like a whole month late, which is why I shouldn't estimate release dates, but it's done! Expect to see it tomorrow afternoon!
Besides, double the time for double the wordcount is worth, right?
Right?
Anybody?
Friendly reminder that if any time you want to check my progress on the next few chapters, I'm constantly updating a little box on my user page with the word count after finishing working on them. It's just off to the right, underneath a little image denoting me a Magician from this little personality test I did way back when.
I mean, it's 3AM.
But I've got my groove on right now.
So I guess now would be as good of a time as ever to get back to work on the next chapter.
OH GOD I'M SO BUSY ALL OF A SUDDEN WHAT HAPPENED
I WAS GONNA GET THAT CHAPTER DONE SO QUICKLY BUT SO MUCH TIME HAS ALREADY PASSED I'M SO SORRY
DON'T WORRY THOUGH I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN
I'M STILL GONNA DO IT.
JUST
WHEN I HAVE TIME I'M SORRY
Okay, so I might miss that "few days" soft deadline I gave myself and you guys, but it's for a good reason, I promise. I went into my notes and reviewed things, and I found that I really needed to restructure and replan the final few chapters, considering the way things kinda happened in the previous chapters. Along with that, I made a few small edits to other chapters to make the message I'm trying to get across more clear.

Hey guys, it's been a bit of a time since you've heard from me regarding the story, but I just made a very large breakthrough after many hours of writing/reconsidering the story. Check the tl;dr addition at the bottom of the post if you don't want to read the details.
If you do, let's get down to business.
Okay, first order of business:
*horns blaring*
*children screaming*
*nuclear bomb explodes in computer*
Hey guys, just your friendly reminder that I'm, in fact, not dead, and I'm still working on the next chapter of Fortune. I've been working hard on it when I can, but I just moved through a period of about 2 months where I had extremely limited free time, and it even cut into my sleep, which I've now just started catching back up on. I'm approaching the halfway mark for the chapter, at around 4,000 words, so expect it to drop within the month.
You may now continue to scroll.
Hey guys! Long time no see! Happy 2015 to everybody!
I just wanted to give a little update on what's going on with my side of the internet and the story and whatnot. So let's get down to it.
As of now, I'm 5,403 words into the next chapter for Reversal of Fortune, and I've been debating back and forth for the last few days on whether to publish it as is, or extend it further.
I'd like someone to give a segment of the next chapter of Reversal of Fortune a quick look-over. I like what I've written, but I'm a little on-the-border with it. Might be a little too extreme.
Shoot me a PM if you're interested.
Officially resumed work on the story today. With luck, I'll have the next chapter finished by tomorrow night. I'm also going back constantly and making tiny adjustments and corrections where needed in the first four chapters. Nothing major has changed, but some individuals have expressed their displeasure in Ryan recognizing an obscure Chinese goddess, so I think I'm going to take out that little bit. After thinking about it, it wouldn't make sense to have him know, even with all the books he's
The official announcement, if you even needed one at this point. I haven't been able to get much work done, because I'm super busy with tons of other stuff. The hiatus will end, most likely, around the end of May.
When I update it next time, I will also be submitting it to EQD, so I'll probably go through it another few times to make sure it's all ready, which might cause a few days' delay in the next chapter.
Thank you for your patience.
So it's 11:04 p.m. as I'm writing this, April 1st, 2014; so it's technically still April Fool's Day for me. So all you peeps that are on April 2nd right now can shut up.
No, I'm not going to make a joke about killing Reversal of Fortune.
No, there will not be an April Fool's Day chapter.
No, I'm still working on it.
No, I'm not going to drag this out any longer, so I'll get straight to the point.
I'm thinking about submitting it to Equestria Daily.
I required inspiration to work on the next chapter, (because these things are so damn long) so I went back to reread the prologue.
Instead of quickly going through it to get in "the zone," I instead got caught up on all the little mistakes I made.
So now it's fully edited and updated to have maximum relevance to the later plot developments.
Time to get cracking on the next chapter!
Just as a notice though, I will (at some point) go back and fix chapter 2. It's messy and I don't like messy.
So this is news for both Ungrounded and Reversal of Fortune, so I apologize to the people that are getting this twice.
I'm busy. Really busy.
Things I'm busy with:
-Real Life
-Other Things in Real Life
-Co-Authoring a fic to help out a friend*
-Other Project (You're not allowed to know about this one yet)*
-Ungrounded
-Reversal of Fortune**
