Writing through the first real chapter (I wrote a recap) for the conclusion of the Greater Menace trilogy, it’s getting heavy quick. Suffice it to say, from the get-go, the Green Shard uses Twilight’s body to inflict some graphic violence. Maybe I shouldn’t’ve eaten before writing. I’m already deciding to give it an M-rating for gore (but no sex). And I know it’ll be more severe in time, worse than how Eleven ended.

Just finished the rough draft of the epilogue. About to start another work week, and it’s Prime Week to boot. Longer days, more days, and doubtlessly more orders...oophta. But at least it’ll be more profitable than most, eh?

I’ll get to the editing when I can, but...it feels kinda strange that soon, this thing I’ve had bouncing around m’ for a year now will be done and behind me. It was last July the idea came to me, and now...’bout to put the icing on the caking and send it out.

Did it all today. Now that I’m on days, I get to be daddy on the days m’ wife works and I don’t...it’s nice to have the kiddo. Rinsed out and filled up wading pool for her. Had to slay mosquito larvae, and did so with enthusiasm. Hate the sodding buggers. Anyways, the kiddo wandered around the side of the fence, then screamed and returned to me in tears, demanding to be held. I could not find a sting welt, but after she was in the pool for a little while, the inside of her right foot looked

Well...almost. I have to endure the rest of this week on nights, then next week, back to days. Finally. Only put in the request in bloody January, and with as many that have come and gone in that time, I should like to think they could have readily moved me over. Alas, nope, not 'til now.

Nightshift means sleeping during the day. Been having some difficulty sleeping. Then she calls me just before 10am, in hysterical tears. She said she totaled the car.

There's simply too much left to write in this chapter for me to have any real chance of posting it tonight. I'm gonna take it easy and make sure it's done right; it's gonna be a gem.

Looks like I will get it out on time. Just finished editing, and we have internet back. We'll be massively reducing the number of channels we'll get on the tube, simply put because we don't use many of them at all. That'll cut down on costs significantly, and hopefully means this interruption won't happen again. If nothing else, ye olde internet is about the only effective way to look at job postings quickly nowadays. And while Amazon's not been a bad place to work, the checks simply aren't

Apparently m' wife decided to not pay the internet bill when she was handling the others. Typing away on ye olde phone, but with a cheaper data plan, and slower/less accurate typing, there's no way I'm going to punch up the next chapter on this thing. Might not be on here much in the interim. So...not yay. Will update once both the next chapter is readied, and can post it.

Clearly, I badly miscalculated on that one. I thought that after a number of heavy-drama chapters and with things about to get heavy, this was a good time to have a funny/silly chapter, as a comedy relief. Frankly, looking at the plot outline, this was my last chance to have a chapter that was more to the comedy side. Earlier in the story, poking fun at the game mechanics by having the ponies (namely, Rarity) run face-first into them and pointing out their absurdity was well-received;

All votes are tallied (glad this didn't number something like a county-wide election ), and somehow I'm not surprised with the result. The winner will be revealed when the new chapter goes up on Wednesday just after 8pm EDT, when I go on break at work that night.
