This has been quite a week. (Week, week, week goes the guinea pig and yes, I'm tired, I've stayed up late writing about young ponies being cute.) In addition to getting a kinda reasonable level of edits done for various jobs, I've had lots of fun with music as I've been introduced to an accordion club. Although i'm easily the youngest there (and two folk are in their 80s) its fun to play music with pros and play all kinds of sheet music. In addition, playing music in church
As per the heading, writing progress has been amazing this month. I wrote over 20k words while in Fiji. Much of that was for my latest one shot, set on an island far away from Equestria. Despite its quiet reception, Midnight Blue - Island Paradise was fun to write and was inspired by Amarynceus's amazing Tuna boat and the beautiful location I was staying at in Fiji for work. It was also something different, writing Luna as a male. I'll probably do mLuna x Twilight again in future as I think
I feel as though Crashing Angels is coming along well. It's into new territories and even when I set off to try and write other stories (such as finishing off my TwiLuna dance fic) I end up writing CA.
What feedback I am receiving makes me more certain that the direction is good, so on I shall continue with the story.
The next chapter should be ready within the next few days. I'm thinking thursday (NZ time) just before I drive my EV down to my brother's house in Hamilton.
I found chapter 10 to be a special chapter. At last, I have delved into something I have wanted to for some time.
And while I go off to work next up on a TwiLuna / GalStream (and more..) fic about a school dance that gets both cute and silly I do intend to return to Crashing Angels right after.

First chapter update of the year goes to Crashing Angels. The writing of it flowed well thanks to getting in two very good writing days so far.
Lots of good, sweet cuteness in chapter 9 and not all of it is between our main two fillies.
I think it's crazy that I started this back when I was Flutterdash7. This is nearly 8 years of carrying this story with me so far...
Hopefully it will take nothing remotly close to that duration of time to get it finished now.
It feels weird that its already about halfway through January. Work is kinda busy with plenty of editing that needs doing. I'm also working on stepping up my music practice in an attempt at playing most of the dance tunes on my accordion for the first Scottish country dance evening of the year (in August) here in Auckland. Even though its well over a month way, going from playing about 5-6 pieces (depending on what is chosen for the night) to trying to play most of the 24 is a massive jump.
Although this is late for Christmas, I'm glad to at least have chapter 8 updated and reposted before the end of the year.

While I'm stuck for updates on most of what I'm currently working on, I had a few great ideas for my first fic and so... Now I've just finished a 7 hour planing and tweaking session on Crashing Angels. Lots to do. The story has a long way to go before its fully up to date with my writing style and skills but it's getting there and I'm satisfied with where it's going. I think it has a lot more direction to it than when I first worked on it. It's quite different to write and edit compared to my
Posting from here in Mozambique, Africa, I have a newly updated and rewritten chapter 5 is up for Crashing Angels. If there's still interest in the story, it would be cool to know what folks think of it so far
Coming and going on my rewrite which I really want to get finished at some point soonish, its amazing just how many scenes are getting moved around or edited in major ways.
While the story is still feeling like Crashing Angels, (hopefully a better version) I think the new plot structure and re-written scenes are stronger.
It just continues to be daunting looking at major tweaks to another 80k words before Im likely to hit chapter 11 and at last see a new chapter notification.
Since deciding late last year I would continue Crashing Angels I'm in the middle of re-writes and tweaks. They were put on hold for two months while I put a massive amount of work into my story 'Fall of the Rising' but this week I took another shot at continuing with updating this classic. I seem to be finding some sort of momentum right now and I'm getting a clearer idea about what I want to do with this cute tale. I've re-posted the first four chapters and I'm onto the fifth. It's amazing
After much thinking, I have decided something. I want to finish my first major story 'Crashing Angels'. Its cute, its fun and I'm pretty sure its why many of you followed me in the first place. So providing there's still a good deal of interest in seeing it continued, I'll make it a priority and try and get some sort of reasonable release schedule together so that it wont take another 6 years to get it finished.
I think the next chapter update here will b crashing angels. Because I had a magnificent idea for it today, for about 5-6 chapters time and it involves two awesome young pegasi and dates. It's been the first in a Long time that I've written anything for the story. today I managed to smash out a whole scene and intend to keep going. Although I do fist need to update the old chapters as the new ideas will remove a few things. So once I start updating things I'll make the older versions avalible
Im just putting up a little blog post to say that my long abandoned story, Crashing Angels will finally be seeing an update.
Yes, thats right... It's not dead!
