Trying to get my head back in the game after the series finale, writing has begun on the new Nightmare Night chapter, though Leo Archon and I will have our work cut out getting it done in time for Halloween, with the former working on at least one section. Unfortunately, we won't quite reach the story climax like I originally planned, as a little more scene-setting is necessary to get all the pieces

Hey, folks. Like most of you, I saw the series finale this past weekend. And like most of you, I've had my own issues in dealing with it, wondering what it means for the site, for the fandom, for my own stories, and for myself. So consider the following blog entry my attempt to help myself through it and sort through all my myriad thoughts and emotions.

In truth...

It's coming in at just under 7000 words and will launch as soon as all prereads are in--I'm only waiting on one more. Aside from continuing to build the story to its (hopefully) Halloween climax, expect the new chapter to do at least one thing I've been wanting to generally for a while and plug a major plot hole in the MLP movie. Which hole? You'll find out in the course of reading it and the author's notes.

The next Nightmare Night chapter is on the way and may be draft complete this weekend. It is likely to be a shorter chapter this time, perhaps around 6500 words or so. Highlights include Eclipse vs Celestia--in which I attempt to plug a major plot hole from the MLP movie--and action on the other side of the portal as Twilight and Sunset get ready to answer the map's call. There will also be some check-ins with the CMC, and Spike's group.

At 7k words already, Part 19 might even be draft complete this weekend. Expect this chapter to be alternating between the confrontation between Nightmarity and Eclipse, and the scene back at Canterlot High as a fleeing and frightened Trixie arrives. There will be some adult action, but mostly just scene-setting this time.

In a manner of speaking as its number of likes just reached 1776, the same number as the year of American Independance! I'd like to thank yet again everyone who read, enjoyed, or commented on the novelization, as well as the original author, Chrome Regios, who took on this Herculean task to begin with and churned out the first 42 chapters. The stories this work has spawned live on as well, in the form of the The Lawyer and The Unicorn, and the Firefly series. And of course, let's

Hey, folks. As most of you know, Raven (Chrome) Regios was the original author of the Turnabout Storm novelization, as she was very active on Fimfiction a few years ago, writing a slew of crossover MLP works. But then life happened, including school, job and marriage, and now she and her husband have a family to support.

But before that, I've decided that the last chapter was in fact too long and I'll thus be splitting it in half. Unfortunately, I can't do that without posting a new chapter even though it's not new content, so you will see that happen within the next few days. There'll be some tweaks, perhaps, but nothing too major will be changed with it as for the most part, I was quite happy with it. In hindsight, I should have broken it in two at the start and released the two chapters a week apart. 16k is

And very heavily guest-written. There will be one section by me, one by AJ_Aficionado, and one by Denim_Blue, each highlighting a different race/faction who will shortly have to choose sides in the war. And since I can't resist despite earlier saying there wouldn't be one, here's a teaser...

And that means it's time for an old promise to be kept. I don't recall when I made it, but it was suggested by a commenter or two a year or two ago that the story be turned into an actual book. I said I would if and when it hit 300 likes, and here we are!
