I have a confession to make.

I thought I could write two chapters at once, and drive for many hours to my folks in Pennsylvania (from Vermont), and spend a few days at the behest of Jinxiemom, and drive back and still have a terrific chapter as if I'd never gone anywhere.

Here is a party for a few of my pony friends… in celebration of a Trixieverse milestone.

1,000,000 words
