Hey gang,

I’m really sorry about this, but this week’s chapter is going to be a day or two late. Im dealing with some major irl family drama and it has left me too emotionally wrung out to be able to properly give the chapter its final editing pass.

I am super sorry. I tried, but I just couldn’t brain enough to edit and revise to my normal standards and i dont want to oost a subpar chapter when its got important stuff in it.

Gonna try and give it that final pass tomorrow Or sunday.

Hey gang,

I put this in the most recent "Author's Note" but I figured I'd also add it here. Just sort of a fun thing.

I have some plans for the Friendship Games that may involve minor characters. A lot of minor and bit parts. And I can only fill so many of those with "Background Humans" of my own making or with ones from the show who exist as a name only.

But, my team and I talked about this a while back, and I thought it could be fun to open up the option to the readers...

So, Chapter for the week is going to be delayed because my writing partner/editor/lovely lady has covid and is not in any condition to do anything except sleep and eat. We were in the process of tweaking the chapter that was supposed to go up this week (to bridge the stuff we added with the things we already had written) when she fell ill, and I can't do this without her.

No cause for alarm folks. I know Rubicon's title has changed slightly, but that's me doing some formatting formally. Its always been broken down by arcs and Intermissions in my Scrivener, and Rubicon itself has always been two parts: Volume I, which is titled "Cross the Rubicon: Choices", and Volume II--"Cross the Rubicon: Consequences."

Likewise, the arcs and intermissions each have their own titles.
Arc I has always been tagged as "Redemption", and Arc II is "Shadow Rising".

It took a while, but we have two new chapters and an interlude that are brand new and part of the upcoming story that delves into some questions you guys asked!

It also added almost 20k words to the story so far, haha.

Provided nothing explodes during final editing, I’ll see you kids tomorrow night/Friday morning with the next chapter!

Hugs and cocoa from the Rubicon Crew!

Okay, my dearest readers....

So there's going to be a bit of a hiatus from chapters being posted for the next few weeks, as the absolute STORM of comments and speculation in the recent feedback has inadvertently spawned some...extra chapters and some minor edits and reshuffling. Something about it all set my editor/co-writer into a bit of a flurry of inspiration, and now we have....an interlude and two or three extra chapters to write and insert...

Not much of an announcement, just that due to the over-eagerness of a number of readers, I've chosen to post the first part of a sidestory entitled "Memories of the Little Sun". Its not much yet, but it is ultimately intended to be a companion piece to "Supernova" a story that deals with Equestria, and the pony side of 'what happened with Sunset Shimmer?'

Just figured I'd let people know! :}

Hugs and cocoa,

Well. A gift.

As I mentioned in this week's chapter, we wrote a little holiday short-story for you guys and gals! It's going up now, so, huzzah! I do hope you all enjoy, especially because so many of you were talking about seeing things from Celestia's Point of View. This should give you a little taste of that, hahahahah.

So, I've been debating this back and forth for a long while, since I know a lot of creative sorts do things like patreon or ko-fi or other donation things to let people toss them money here and there.

Hey cats and kittens,

Met my personal editing goal for the month, and now have about 10 months worth of weekly updates ready to go! So I'll pop the first one up on the 30th, for all you people who have been languishing and wondering if I died or gave up. :}
