Official Art for Bring the Dawn! · 4:51am Oct 11th, 2022

Hello all! You all know I don't post much - but today I bring something special. I've got some great news all around!

43 Chapters are done for Bring the Dawn. It took several months, a lot of rewrites, and patience, but I did it. It's nearly finished. All it needs now is a few rounds of rereads (it's over 120k words) and it'll be ready to hit the shelves. That's right, shelves! Shelves! I'll have paperback, hardback, and digital versions of the book.

Update: Bring the Dawn #1 · 8:07pm Aug 1st, 2022

Heya all! For those not incredibly interested in writings outside of ponies, this may still interest you. I'd like to introduce Bring the Dawn, my own original IP I've been working partly on for the last few months, until my motivation pool dried up after having to fresh restart at the very beginning.

Verve's Final Chapter: A Warm Hearth (6.7k Characters) · 4:17pm Jan 26th, 2022

I'm less than happy to admit that the story is finally over. There's nowhere else to go. The final chapter, no longer left to the stars - but here, uploaded, written, softly edited, and complete with fitting music and pictures of Vee.

I'm sorry it took so long. I always get this... severe melancholy, as a story comes to an end. I hate it when it happens; it hurts my soul, it really does.

Bring the Dawn! · 5:06am Dec 31st, 2021

Heya!~ If you're reading this post, you either do or don't know that I've been working on a novel for a bit. A lot of you may know that I'm a fast author. I typically write out 2-3 chapters a day, when I have the mood and energy to do so. Which, for Verve and Inertia, I had for... two months straight.

I give up · 5:10am Oct 3rd, 2021

I put a lot of work into Verve. I have 92 total chapters. But at this point, I'm not writing anymore. I'm going to finish the last bit of editing, let the story end on chapter 92 - and that'll simply be the ending.

70 Chapters, 40 days. · 8:24am Sep 19th, 2021

And I'm still not finished. I did the estimation, and the story could very well break 85-90 chapters baseline (5k words a chapter average) with 10 epilogue chapters. Tons of plot bouncing, talking, small rewrites, a few dumped chapters (a *few, like... 5) and work keeping me slow, otherwise I'd be done by now. Out of these 40 days (I think it's closer to 38 days), I've spent maybe 2-5 days with less than one chapter's progress each.

Looking for a New Editor for Verve · 4:43pm Aug 25th, 2021

Heya! I had some trouble with my last editor. Strictly speaking, they weren't able to provide constructive criticism and instead antagonized me over a minor detail regarding the construction of a dam in the story. I'm not joking. I spent over an hour trying to assert, with facts, historical accounts, engineering knowledge, and actual Earth Pony lore, that a dam could possibly break under record rains due to improper construction without advanced architectural knowledge and safety foresight,

Oh no. Verve is going to be much, much longer than Inertia. · 12:18am Aug 22nd, 2021

I wrote much, much too much. I'm on Chapter 30 now, and I'm happy to say I'm probably around the halfway point for Verve. I think I began writing in the early part of August; had I not been also working a nearly full time job, I would definitely be done by now. Also, I had to watch a family pet for a week, around the same time my laptop decided to catch fire. All in all, this is still a shocking amount of progress!

It's now officially an adventure story. Yay.

Bad News/Good News~ · 11:28am Aug 13th, 2021

Heya everypony! If you're reading this little update, I've got some bad news and some good news.

Let's start off with the bad news, as it's the most important.

The motherboard on my laptop decided now would be a great time to catch fire. Unfortunately for me, this specific motherboard is for an overly expensive gaming laptop - wonderful, right? So a replacement is not only hard to come by, but extremely expensive. $650! That's over half the price of the actual laptop.
