Edit: I've set up a link in the description of the story in place of where I kept the progress percentage to make this blog easy for people to find.

Second Edit: Click here to read the story mentioned below.

OK, so there's something I want to get off my chest. Ripping the bandage off, as it were.

OK, so with the release of the latest chapter there's a few things I want to go over a bit more in-depth regarding the story.

Here's the short of it: After the story concludes, I'm going to give it a complete and total rewrite, and here's where you guys come in.

There's two things I can do.

OK, so the next chapter of ANCTL has been finished and polished, and is just now awaiting the final editing process. If all goes well, I hope to have it out before the week is over.

New story hype!

After having one of those fucked-up conversations only friends can have thanks to this pervert, I've been convinced to put out another clopfic.

Okay, so, because I went on holiday over New Years, I didn't have any time to write unfortunately. About two hours after I had gotten home, my boss called and asked me to cover one of my workmate's shifts. So in a period of about two weeks, I haven't had much time to get my affairs in order given how hectic things have been. Fear not, my fellow horseword enthusiasts! After taking today to "blob out", that being getting up at 2pm after having gone to sleep at 5am, play Overwatch, get stoned, eat

Merry Christmas to all of you from the ass end of the world that is New Zealand! As one of the first countries in the world to experience this momentous date, I just wanted to take a moment to wish you all the very best of holidays and a happy new year to come! Here's hoping the new year will bring a brighter year than this, whose story starts with "Well it all began with this fucking gorilla..." All jokes aside, heh, I hope you have a good time over these coming holidays.

From the land of no internet, through three and a half weeks without, my internet has finally been connected!

In the three and a half weeks I have been gone, I had my 25th birthday.

...Which was two weeks ago.

And I also cringe when I realise I haven't updated ANCTL in two and a half fucking MONTHS. I hope to rectify that as soon as I can.

It's been approximately 193 hours since the internet at my place died. As I mentioned in my last blog, the phone companies and providers are upgrading the systems to fibreoptic, so I don't know how much longer I'll be without. Oh yeah, currently sat at an internet cafe again.

But, I come bearing art!

This one is from Samaru163, someone I brought in to help edit and proofread the story.

After two and a half months, I've finally finished writing the twentieth chapter for ANCTL.

It's longer than the previous by about two-thousand words, so hopefully a meaty chapter with plenty of drama and beat-downs will make up for the long awaited chapter.

Right now I've sent it off for editing, so it depends on the time schedules of the editors, to whom I am eternally grateful for lending their time and effort, as to when it will be available for publication.

First off, I wanted to share with everyone the first ever piece of fanart (for ANCTL) I've gotten!

Drawn by Samaru163, he said he really wanted to draw Joseph, in his 'mare form', drinking

Secondly, chapter twenty is close to being finished. Work has been picking up so I haven't had much time to sit down and get much out.

872 words.

Why do I have to be 872 words short!?!?

Because I accidentally published the chapter a couple weeks ago, it might not show up in some of your notifications. Hopefully those of you who catch this blog will be informed to its publication.

During a conversation between the proof reader and I, it has been decided that the current chapter of ANCTL is too long for what is contains, and we mutually decided to release a large portion of it while we go through the remainder of the chapter to be released at a later date.

I cropped out the name of the chapter title to avoid possible spoilers for those that don't like them, and left in the number of the chapter and the word count.

IT REALLY FUCKING HAPPENED

WHAT DO I EVEN FUCKING SAY TO THIS!?!?!?!

Thank you all so much, it really means a lot

...until ANCTL hits one-thousand upvotes.

I was doing some late night writing before I went to bed, and I accidentally clicked "Publish" instead of "Edit" when updating the chapter here on fimfic, the buttons of which are right next to each other. It was an honest mistake I can assure you, and let me state that I know full well publishing chapters only to unpublish them to boost it or whatever is against the rules. It was an honest mistake, really.

EDIT: This blog now doubles as the place where I say I accidentally hit publish on the incomplete chapter of ANCTL. There's no updates yet.

Ok, now that you're done giggling about the title of the blog, listen up.

On writing chapter twenty of ANCTL (mild spoilers below), I realised that there was one more thing I needed to add in.

Over a year and a half later, twenty-one months to be exact (more or less), we're approaching the final stretch of A Nightmare Come to Life.

I've started the twentieth chapter today, after spending two weeks flushing out the outline, and it's sitting at 1000 words.

So, it behooves me to tell you guys that something went fundamentally wrong with my internet connection and now I'm left without any wifi.

So, it's been several weeks since ANCTL has been updated, but not without reason. Mostly it's a combination of video games, work, commissions, and general laziness accompanied by being stoned as hell for three days this past thursday to saturday. Given the weed shortage crisis going on in NZ, I'm surprised I managed to score a gram for so cheap.
