"I could lift you up. I could show you what you wanna see, and take you where you wanna be. You could be my luck. Even if the sky is falling down, I know that we'll be safe and sound."
;P

But I can't post it. It's saying Failed To Save Object Chapter.
Most think time is like a river that flows swift and sure in one direction. They are wrong. Time is an ocean in a storm. There are many different ways that time is perceived. Some feel days are short, others think days are long, and then there are folk who feel as though the length of a day is somewhere in between short and long, to various degrees. As Jack fell through the abyss he had fallen in once before, he felt as though time was slowed to a minuscule fraction of it's normal speed.
Absence is a terrible, dreadful, thing. Absence of the mind, of life, of the soul. For the longest time, I have been absent from each of those things. My actions guided by the orders fed to me as if by a spoon. I descended into a world of nothing but forced thoughts, numbers, and hysteria the likes of which no one should ever have to suffer. They were all just... bricks in the wall. The wall that I had been involuntarily building for years. I had nearly become trapped in a prison that I myself
So, I know I promised chapter two today, and I am terribly sorry that I have to say I can't post it today.
I do have good news, though. The first draft is nearly done(I'd say about 80%), and after that it is smooth sailing for the second draft, just rewording things to sound more poetic/prose-y and adding more description. So hopefully it can be up by Monday, to help you all through that most horrible of days.
I am deeply mortified to tell you all this, but I cannot release Chapter Two today. I had a lot going on this week and the last: birthdays, parties, a con. I got really tired from it all and I needed a break to rest for a couple days. ...I just wasn't able to get it done by today.
I am hoping that I can get it done by at most next Friday, and at least next Tuesday.

I'm going to get to work on it tomorrow night, I swear upon the goddess Luna that I will. I want to finish it just as much as I'm sure you guys want to see it get finished.
Rock on, everypony.
So, there hasn't been any comments on Cogs & Needles since Act: I Chapter I. I'm just wondering, am I doing a good job? Is there anything I could improve on? I want to make sure that what I am writing is of good quality, and the only way I can know if it is is if you guys tell me it is.
I'm not begging for comments or anything, I just would like to know if I am doing a good job.
Yes, you read that right, I am back from the dead. After such a long time of un-creative torture, I was finally able to begin writing again. I've finished the next chapter of Cogs and Needles, and once my editor finishes going over it, it shall be posted here for you all to read. I apologise for the excruciatingly long time that I did not update, and hopefully in the next few months, I'll be able to make up for it by actually working on the story for a change, instead of staring at the page and
