So, I've been not doing much writing for quite some time, at least not for The Worth of Words anyway or anything longer than vague thoughts. Anyway, I've got about a chapter's worth written plus another partially written one, with the former a bit further in the future (at least a chapter or two more as it stands). If there's anyone at out there paying attention, are you interested enough to see those bits or should I just hold off until I get around to finishing chapter 7 and the intervening

Today I happened upon thoughts about the nature of alicorns in The Worth of Words. By which I mean I was contemplating what my answers were to some of the questions raised in the comments. In particular, those regarding what my definition of an alicorn is (and how they come into existence) and whether Twilight was or would end up as an alicorn. I have since jotted down a fair chunk of text crudely laying out my ideas on my computer. Naturally as a process of attempting to answer some questions,

Chapter 6 is coming along,... slowly. It's a little over a third finished, but I'm working on it. Hopefully it'll be done by Monday, sooner if possible. I've also got a chapter's worth written out concerning Twilight, Luna, and Celestia, but that'll have to wait for the right spot (to be put up, that is). Anyway, hope someone is still paying attention.

So, anyway.

Self imposed deadlines... what's that I hear? *WHOOSH*

Oh, wait, there it went! Bugger...

I apologize and resolve to work harder to meet my own schedule. My cozy bed was really calling at 2 am this morning.

So, that's Chapter 5 for you. When's Chapter 6 getting here, you may ask? I don't have a clue. Before two weeks, hence, maybe?

* you are totally awesome if you caught the reference above

Chapter 5, is err, still being written. I am a very slow writer of late, no thanks to trying to decide how the next day or so of the story is going to unfold. Hopefully I will be done by tomorrow afternoon/evening, well, this evening really (it's after 1am here on the east coast of the US)... Anyway, that's about all for that. I do hope someone is still interested, even if a three week wait is a long, long time on here. *shrug* No, I do not have a good reason for not having written much

Two weeks... wow. D:

Well, that took longer than I meant it to. I was hoping to be done a few days ago, since I was halfway finished with it then. 1500 words. Yeah! I'm looking to lengthen the future chapters a bit (maybe 2k words if I can get my writing to that level), but it can be quite a bit of work sometimes to get more story onto the screen.

Okay, so it isn't the utterly unique (not!) story entirely of my own creation that I was hoping to have written, but it'll have to do. It's a fanfic of a fanfic so to speak. After all of what worth is a fandom where no one ever writes fanfiction of fanfiction (namely inspired or a sequel to someone else's fanfiction)? Surely in a fandom there is fanfiction worth writing, perhaps deserving, a sequel? Okay, okay, so without any further rambling, I present the first two chapters of 'The Worth of
