Yes, you read that right. There is now a new chapter of The Horizon Adventures up for your reading pleasure.

And it is part fucking one.

I'm basically doing what I silently vowed never to do, split chapters, but if I'm real with you... This chapter would've literally ended up well over 20k words if I included the final race in there.

As well as that, I had some last minute plot ideas and thought it would be nice to implement them.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well as we move into the middle of the Christmas season!

I, for one, couldn't really care less about Christmas but it feels weird that we're about to go into 2024.

Oh yeah, did yall see the GTA VI trailer? What's the betting that I still won't have The Horizon Adventures complete before then?!

I joke, but I do have some news and updates on how that's coming along;

Okay. Okay okay okay okay!!! Lemme explain.

My adrenaline has been going for the last 45 minutes just writing this segment out in the latest THA chapter. Over 1.3k words in just over an hour, I think.

The chapter is now at 11k words and I'm fucking ecstatic. COULD NOT have finished this part off better if I wanted to. It. Is. BRILLIANT.

I don't want to brag but I've been holding this off for ages and it's just exploded into something fantastic.

Burnout? Burnout my ass!

Well, the Standard release version of the game anyway. That's the one I got, way way back in 2018. I can still remember that day, coming home from a trip to a tech convention and immediately running to my local games store to pick up a copy of Horizon 4.

Five years goes by fast, doesn't it? And to think that The Horizon Adventures has been around for over four of those...

I'm so glad we're on the home stretch. In proportion to the overall story, that is.

Look at this.

LOOK AT THIS!!!

I got a random burst of inspiration to get into digital art for real this time. Just drawing Twilight took over ten hours, crazy right?

Might end up working on a few more of these. Got a third AMG One from this week's Forzathon shop and turns out it looks really good in blue, that's what gave me the idea to somehow pull this off.

Got word on Saturday morning, so literally the day after the previous blog, that a meet was being held on Sunday morning. It was a complete surprise, and the guys who organised it only set it up because one of the local Ferrari collectors had a Daytona SP3 delivered.

Yes, I'm serious. A Daytona SP3. Pics are below xD

Haven't dropped an update in a while, hope you're all doing fine! The summer months are not far from coming to an end, being mid-August currently.

To be honest, this might've been the worst summer the UK has seen in years. Rain, rain, the occasional sunny day, and more damn rain.

Hope you're all doing well, I've know I've been inactive for a few weeks. Mainly because I've been knee deep in YouTube stuff since I got back from Hungary.

Let me tell you, having a video file you spent about 30 hours on corrupt right in front of your eyes is not motivating at all.

But, two days ago released one of the GREATEST things I've seen in a long time. The Miraculous, Ladybug & Cat Noir Movie finally dropped on Netflix.

Woo! What a week it has been! Budapest was absolutely fantastic and I cannot recommend the city enough, if you ever travel that way.

Got bad news though, I didn't get any updates done, sorry

The majority of my time was spent out of the hotel, downtime basically wasn't a thing. It was a 'asleep at midnight, awake at six' type of thing all week. Certainly not complaining though, I was brainstorming ideas for the chapter and will be able to start on those soon.

Read More

Title is explanatory, I'm off on holiday for a week, all the way over to Hungary! (well, eight days. Friday to Friday)

I expect I'll have enough downtime at the hotel to bang out the next sequence in the chapter, since Tuesday I've written another 1.1k so we're close to 4k words at the moment.

There are no plans to do another split-chapter like Silverstone had, so I'm just warning you now; get prepared for an absolutely monolithic finale, definitely over 12k words if I can help it!

Read More

I'll keep it short and sweet because its genuinely 4:30am and I am exhausted after writing a metric fuckton of words tonight.

First off, I've finally finished with my education! I finished all the way back on the 16th, just had some immediate stuff that I needed to do afterwards regarding next steps in life, I guess, didn't want to make a big show of it in a blog on here.

The Horizon Adventures has officially passed the 1000 view mark, I'm so so happy that you guys keep coming back to this story!

Read More

Hey guys, hope everything is good over here while I've been vacationing on AO3 for the last week!

I seem to have been caught up in the whirlwind of, you guessed it, Miraculous fanfics. I found another fantastic one a few days ago, literally after finishing Back To Us, and started reading.

Now that story itself was 446k words, a damn big figure to say the least. This next one... Just under half of that, at 198k words.

Hey yall,

Just dropping a quick update blog since I haven't posted anything in almost a month, lol.

I think I caught some sort of illness last weekend and I've spent the last week in bed doing literally nothing. I suspect it was when I went on a 10-mile walk in exceptional wind in just a shirt and shorts, so much for trying to stay in shape, right?

Hey everyone,

I'm still buzzing from finally getting the newest chapter of The Horizon Adventures out, and I hope you're all enjoying it. It was a long process, but we pulled through, and I can finally stop writing about Fords now!

Now, the next chapter is currently in the works, and I've got a pretty good grasp on whats gonna happen within the first couple of thousand words. Seven hundred of which have already been written, so the start of the chapter is already done with.

Read More

Yes, you heard that right!!! I've written about a thousand words in the last three hours, AND THE CHAPTER IS DONE!

Over twelve thousand words, I don't think I'm going to beat this chapter's length for a while. I know I said the 20th, and it's the 22nd now... So only a couple days off! I'm counting that as a win.

Anyway, it's up! Feel free to check it out.

Yes, yes, I know, the 10th has been and gone. I've been in a bit of a dry spell with writing, as I'm sure many of you can relate to.

Don't worry! It's not another case of burnout. I will not be disappearing for another two years, that is just out of the question. It's just a short period where I've had very little time to sit down and let the creativity flow, and my focus has been on plenty of other things in life.

Hey everyone! First of the new month, February is now done!

For me, that means my step goal of 200k has now reset for the new month. For you, I hope it means something just as good! I'll definitely be getting a head start on that today with some walking.

Can you tell I'm in a good mood? It's almost 2am, but I just wanted to update you with that the next chapter is now nearing 10,500 words. It's like, 10,480 if you wanna be specific. (It was 10,200 an hour ago)

Read More

Passed 10k words, GG EZ WP. Roughly 10,150 at the moment.

Also, alllllll the dialogue in THA has now been sorted. It was essentially a readthrough of the story, and I quite enjoyed it.

If you do read the past chapters back and find any typos or dialogue errors, do let me know!

My mind is blown. Absolutely, positively, blown. More blown than a 2JZ swapped Corvette with 1200 wheel horsepower.

"A 2JZ swapped what?!"

Yes, that exists, Twilight. Didn't you know you can literally engine swap anything? I just V12 swapped my Fiesta last week.

"..."
