Chapter 12 Rough Draft accidentally published! Sorry for the false alarm. · 11:22pm Jun 11th, 2012

They really do put those buttons close to each other.

Sorry for the false alarm! Chapter 12 is not done, of course. If you've read it, you know that it was just a half-finished leak. I've got the last two chapters almost done, but you're going to have to wait to see the final product.

Ciao!

still good for being half-finished

half-finished leak.... but but it was sooo good

Last two chapters? You said that 4 chapters ago! AHHH!!! :raritycry:

weird, didnt get a notification

169438 Yeah, I know I'm a stinker like that. :twilightsheepish: These things tend to take on a life of their own.

Hah! You know me, I was already trying to read it, but looks like I was too slow.

169549 Well, from what I read seems like the final battle starts in that cliffhanger. How long until we see the real chapters?

169556 169552 169434 Chapter 11 and 12 are being reviewed by my editors right now, so I'd like them to be out by Wednesday. It would be awesome if I could get Chapter 13 and the Epilogue sent to my editors' desks by the end of the week. The reason this always takes so long is because I have a tendency to rewrite entire scenes several times before I am happy with them. The Luna scene you read actually was my fourth draft. I played with the idea of having Fluttershy use her stare instead of Luna using her magic, for example, or having Twilight do it herself, so you can see that a lot happens between drafts. In the course of writing this story, I've probably deleted twice what I've published. I'd love to update once a week like Anthropology or any of the more popular tales, but when it comes down to it, I just am not happy enough with first efforts to keep up that pace. I'm just looking forward to putting the finishing touches on DB, so that I can turn towards what I really want to do.

Romantic Comedy!!!

With violence. Lots of violence.

169433 Thanks mate. It's a little embarrassing knowing that people saw unfinished work. It's like stepping out of the shower to see your room mate standing there.

170804 That awkward moment when you thought you clicked the Edit button and suddenly you have emails saying, "What's up with this Chapter d00d????" :pinkiegasp: :derpyderp1: :rainbowhuh: :twilightoops:
