You've written the same worldbuilding dialogue in two places that make sense, but it doesn't make sense to have them both, so one needs to be cut out entirely or redone into something else.

It's a minor pain.

Also, there's some worldbuilding coming up in a bit, so there's something to look forward to.

I've looked back at some older chapters of I Burn and have seen many mistakes. I will be going back through them and bringing them up to current standards, so things will be quiet on the updates for a bit longer.

I'm working on something big for an upcoming chapter, and I thought I'd give everyone a hint as to what's coming.

The full and completed picture will be revealed in the chapter that it's relevant to, but feel free to try and figure out what's in there (aside from Lego pieces).

I'm opening OC submissions again. This time, it's for OCs to attend the Entrepreneur Awards Ceremony. They can be ones you've had for a long time, ones made just for this occasion, or anywhere in between.

Here's a blank submission form

After nearly a month of being unemployed due to Toys R Us closing (I was the Lego Specialist at my store), I finally have a job again. Because of this, I will no longer be able to dedicate hours to writing like I've been able to, so chapter releases will slow down. They should still come at a decent pace though, so keep looking forward to that.

And now, a picture of business Yang.

Serious business.

While you awesome^TM people have been waiting with patience for the next chapter of I Burn, how about taking a look at another idea I mentioned in a blog some time ago? An idea called Mirror Mirror, which has Displaced elements to it without actual displacement. For those who have noticed a trend, and for those who haven't, I will say that yes, I do have an idea for Red Like Roses, but I don't have one for From Shadows.

And I plan to use it too. Once I figure out an adequate enemy and/or situation to use it in.

I'm working on the next chapter of I Burn when I can, but due to work picking up because of the holidays, I'm just not finding the energy to work on it as much as I'd like to. I wish it was done now, but the writing for this chapter is a little. . . tedious.

Once it's done, I'm sure I'll be able to pick up the pace again. I'll aim to have it done by Thanksgiving so that, if I'm going to be with family for the day, I'll have something to do on my own.

However, it will not appear on FiMFiction. Similar to I Burn, it takes an odd twist away from the standard Displaced formula.

Actually, calling it Displaced isn't really correct. It has elements of Displaced in it (form changing item, sent to a strange place), but it doesn't drop the main character into a foreign world. The main character's sister does that.
