Aaaand there's the one shot I mentioned last time!

The next Those Blue Wings chapter is written. I am simply awaiting on the artist (the second, in fact. The first one was going to, but real life conspired against him to give him tons of work at his job, and he's been unable to do anything. But I've found an excellent substitute, which I think might actually look even better! )

*bang*

Oh, wait, not that type of shot. Ahem.

Before you ask... yes. I'm still waiting on something for Blue Wings. The chapter is written and ready to go apart from that detail. There's been an issue obtaining it, hence the delay, but I might have a different solution soon.

B- but... I need my wings!

So some time ago, I found an absolutely awesome, fantastic piece of pony art on Deviantart. Favorited it, because a) awesome, and b) appledash.

I just glanced at it again and realised.... it fits. It fits so perfectly well with chapter 7. The emotions displayed, the expressions, everything fits.

I know it wasn't drawn with the fic in mind, but it just works for that scene so well. So I asked the artist if I could include it in the chapter, and they said yes.

Before you ask... no, this isn't the art that I was planning for this chapter, and not the art that delayed things.

It is, however, awesome fanart regardless!

By the awesome zaiker42. Go follow/watch that guy, I tells you! :D

Yaaaay!

Technically, this is about half of chapter 14. It's been ready for some weeks now, but i was waiting on art for the chapter. Sadly, the artist i've commissioned has been swamped with work... so he's been unable to start work on it yet.

So, after some prodding by a prereader, here's chapter 14! Or at least, enough of it to whet your appetite

Following kits' post of 600 followers (*shakefist*), I decided to check my own.

...turns out, there's now 205 of you.

Where's you all come from?!

There's progress on the TBW front as well. Many scenes have been written, and after a little break, I'm in fact going back to add some more scenes right now! Woo!

In any case, thanks again to all of you following me. Never imagined anything i'd write would have this many people interested in in it :)

So, after getting that drawing done by Ratofdrawn for chapter 13, and seeing how great the pic turned out... combined with having recently read a fic that some artist turned into a full blown multipage comic... plus numerous comments suggesting that... I've been debating doing just that.

Commissioning Ratofdrawn to turn the fic into a comic.

Would that be something people would want to see?

.... and 12! And 13!

See. I kinda went crazy with this chapter. Previous highest wordcount? Around 4400.

This?

...this ended up being 12 600.

...yeah.

So I split it up into three, and it reads better. And there's a little surprise. You'll see ;)

... yeah. Those Blue Wings just hit 1000 favorites ( 1000th being Farrier_Nails!).

What the hell. I never expected anything like this when I first started writing. I'm still rather shocked at the amount of response it's getting. Now, you crazy people, go 5 star it on EqD! (i kid, I kid).

In all seriousness, I'll just take this moment to thank my prereaders while I'm at it:
