So it's on queue ... but! You can read it now!

It's not going to interfere with my other stories since I'm putting a limit of 3k words per chapter, but given the nature of the story, I believe you all can see why the word-count-per-chapter limit is so low

So, a brief update on the stories: TSC is going well & TER is also doing okay. I need to upload to the gdocs some of the work on it I've done for my editors to take a look at though

But, on to the blog!

So, Mass Effect.

For a while now, since it came out, actually, I've been struck by how well made it is, how detailed; how... epic. And my first thought when I started reading the history of humans in space? What series did it remind me of?

First, a quick update.

Apparently, I can block myself. Go figure.

As you might have noticed, on the left bar in my user page, TER is progressing nicely.

I am also working at the same time on TSC:F, which is roughly at 15-20% done.

So, here's a story several of us are writing for kicks, it's Poke, so be warned! But... it's by me and other bronies, so it's 20% Cooler than other Poke stories, right?

Right?

Anyway, if you want to read, take a look, we've got some good reviews already so if you enjoy random humor, this might be something you like!

So, I'm wondering... how would you react when a writer you're following writes something completely out of their comfort zone? (And therefore the reason you're following them.)

Lets say you follow a writer that writes the most amazing Comedy fics and then produces a really sad story?

Or a Romance writer that suddenly writes a Grimdark/Gore piece?

Or me writing a mind-control/psychological clopfic taking place in FoE? (Probably the most credible of the three scenarios, I would guess?)

So, how often do you leave a comment on a story you like?

Do you only track it and fave it but not bother to leave a comment?

Do you always leave one?

Do you try to?

Is it even important to leave a comment?

What do you think?

And one more question... how important is it for the author to answer the comments?

So, how often do you leave a comment on a story you like?

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't read the chapter!

First, a short announcement.

I have edited Chapter 2 of The Sweetie Chronicles: “Nightmares Don't Last Forever”. There are no major changes, the edits are only wording, small corrections and such, nothing that changes the plot or characters, but hopefully it reads a lot better now.

So, some ponies out there don't really like having the author notes at the end of the doc (much less the beginning).

Since I am planning to expand a bit on newer chapters of 'The Sweetie Chronicles' and other stories over here, I have decided that the 'A/Ns' will henceforth be published here along with my thoughts on the fic/chapter without any spoilers.

Anyway, Chapter 3 of 'The Sweetie Chronicles' is done! Now it enters its editing stage. Expect it to be completely ready in a few days!

(Edit: One thing I should make clear, when I talk about pre-readers here, I'm not talking about EqD pre-readers, or pre-readers for any web page, I'm talking about the ones that offer to help/you ask for help before you send stuff to be published.)

So, I'm sure most of use here have dealt with criticisms about what we should and should not write, how we should do it, what we should absolutely never do and plenty of rule book reasons to why.
