So, despite my endless desire for self-promotion, I apparently forgot to write a blog post to let readers know Your Own Worst Enemy was out. User Peachy Keen was kind enough to let me know, and since there might be other readers out there like them, living unaware that Sweetie's story is getting the continuation it begs for, I figured I'd just write this to let

So, as I get ready to start publishing story number thirteen on fimfiction, I'd like to ask everyone again if they can help me find someone to do coverart. This is going to be... maybe not my biggest story yet, but at the very least, my most daring, and I'd love it if we could come out of the gate with something memorable for cover art. I'd be willing to pay something for it, since this is just such a big story for me. Any offers or advice would be appreciated. See you all in the comments

Well, I meant to write this out yesterday, but stuff came up. Anyways, as of yesterday night, I finished the rough draft for the sequel to The Unbearable Lightness (Still strange saying the new name). Plus, I might even have an actual title for the story. Anyways, I thought I'd make an update about it to let you know how things are progressing and what my game plan is. I'm planning on taking the rest of the month off to relax and refresh, but I might start editing sooner,

Two blog posts in the same day? I know, I'm as surprised as you are, so what gives? Well, I know I'm in the middle of something resembling a content drought right now, and although I am working on a big project, I'm sitting on my chapters until the project is completely complete. Call it an experiment like what I did last year. So, to make up for the little drought, I'm trying to shoot out little blog posts to keep conversation going and let people know I'm still, you know, alive.

So, as lots of people have pointed out, Princess Luna's Academy is a pretty non-indicative title and better reflects the story I planned to write a year ago than the story I actually wrote.

Read the epilogue if you haven't done it yet. You might spoil yourself a little.

That's it everyone, Princess Luna's Academy is officially D-U-N done, so let the party commence, I guess. Hmm... Well, I guess now is as good a time as any for a retrospective on whats-

Excuse me, does that mean that-

One minute. That's as good as time as any for a retrospective and a look at what's-

So, we are approaching the end of PLA. Don't fret, there is a sequel (and a sidequel) planned, so the story isn't over, but it is reaching a big break. I mention all this because I just finished the last chapter's rough draft (clocking in at 21,000 words, it's long enough that I'll actually split it in half. Instead of one monster chapter, you'll get two slightly less monstrous chapters). However, before the last chapter goes to the editors, I have to finish the epilogue, so we still have

Instead of talking about possible spoiler stuff in the Author's Notes, I'll be talking about vague plot points and story formatting in this nifty little blog post. If you don't want to read that stuff, just know there's a brand new chapter out, and you can read it here. Consider this a director's commentary that vaguely alludes to future events (but doesn't spoil major plot points). Still here? Awesome.

So, the last update should've made it pretty obvious that Sweetie's heading to a not so great mental place. Like... really dark. Anyways, to give us a little break, I've been toying with the idea of giving us a few chapters out of her head so we can see her with outside eyes. I've already picked out the PoV pony, but I just wanted to make sure everyone here was okay with a possible change in perspective (No more than two chapters out of her head are planned). Also, I'm still struggling to

This is an idea I've been musing on for a while, and I thought that since it's going to play a decent sized role in the PLA within a few chapters, I might as well talk about it now. Plus, I had time, and... you know, I could also apologize for not updating WTPV in a while (I'm sorry for not updating WTPV in a while, Sundays are usually my writing day and I've had stuff going on during them).

Well, I'll be going on vacation in a few hours, so before I leave, I thought I'd tell you how all my stories are looking and what my plan is for next year.

Welcome to Pony Vale: Chapter 9 is done. I'll publish it from my phone on the usual day. After Chapter 9, I'm taking a week off.

Alright, so for the first week or so in November, I was visiting a friend in Las Vegas, a few of you commented on my odder hours, and that's why. Living three hours in the past will make anyone's schedule seem erratic. Anyways, I've been back for about two weeks, finally got back in a good writing routine this week (although I took Monday off), and I wanted to share my writing schedule with you all.

So, some of you might've noticed the fact that romance is starting to play an important part in our little story. I feel this is a natural development as this is a story about Sweetie's transition from being a filly to an adult. That's a lot of time to cover, and as she grows up, dating is going to be a big thing for her. While I'm all for developing the story, I also don't want to improperly advertise the story if it becomes something more than what it currently is. To give an idea of what we

So, work on Princess Luna's Academy is progressing, I currently have one 25,000 word chapter waiting to be edited and 15,000 words written for the next chapter. However, I'm in a conundrum, with Sweetie Belle's focus on singing, I will occasionally need to include song lyrics and I have a very limited pool of songs to choose from (show and fan songs, and I'm not familiar with most fan songs), so if anyone help me come up with a few lyrics for Sweetie to sing, I would be greatly appreciative as

So, some of you might notice that it's been almost two months since this story last updated. Maybe it's actually been two whole months, I'm not entirely sure. For the delay, I'd like to... if not apologize, explain myself.
