Quite frankly... the last few months have sucked for me, health-wise. I haven’t had the focus to work on Chatper 7 much, never mind anything else.

But now I’m mostly better, and making progress on it again.

I probably should have said this a few weeks ago, but I took an unintended break from rewriting things.

Translation: I burned myself out writing close to 50,000 words of mostly-original narrative over the span of two and a half months.

What it says on the tin. If you were waiting for Chapter 5, go read it! Please.

I’m a little over halfway done with rewriting 6. Unlike with chapters 2-4, I’ve been able to salvage most of 5 and 6. A lot of the work is reframing the same events from the original version, recontextualizing it, and some of it is shortening things, trimming the fat.

The last chapter that should need significant rewriting is 7.

Go read my fic!

Chapter 4 was a real piece of work, but absolutely worth it.

I finished and published a completely rewritten Chapter 3 of To Bellenast. If you recently read the original version, you have my condolences. It was awful.

I promise the new version is an order of magnitude better. It’s 1/3 the length, has no pointless fight scenes, no plot contrivances, and no unnecessary exposition (there is a teeny tiny bit; I wanted to keep it to the absolute minimum, but these bits are vital).

Contains significant quantities of Adorableness, Cuteness, Fluffiness, Happy Pony-ness, and also significant (though also directly foreshadowed) spoilers for To Bellenast.

I am now ~3 years younger than one of my fic’s characters.

Chapter 2 of To Bellenast was a pile of garbage.

So I completely rewrote it from scratch.

It’s much shorter now, it has better pacing, better characterization for everyone involved, less pointless exposition, less clumsy narration, and a couple pieces of foreshadowing for things later in the fic, which were present in the original draft, but which I failed to execute properly.
