Georg’s March - Monster Mondays, Tutor Tuesdays, and Flash Fridays. · 11:18pm Mar 2nd, 2015
I’m about to do something really stupid or really awesome, I’m not sure which. Starting Monday(today), I will be posting a chapter per weekday for every day in March.
Mondays will be Letters From a Little Princess Monster, where our little alicorn confronts the fears of her friends in Lessons In Flight.
Tuesday through Thursday will be a sequel that has been in production forever: The Traveling Tutor and the Royal Exam where Twilight faces the most terrifying test she has ever taken: Parenthood.
Fridays will be chapters from Flash Sunset, where the Everfree Forest faces off against the combined forces of Sunset Shimmer and Flash Sentry. Will they escape or become fertilizer?
I’m not worried about keeping up with Tutor, because I’ve got enough chapters to fill out the month, but I’ve got three chapters of Monster in the editing process, and almost two of Flash, so I hope I should be able to maintain this process all the way through March if I keep writing like the wolves are catching up. 22 chapters in 22 days.
Wish me luck.
Or better yet, wish Sunset Shimmer and Flash Sentry luck.
(excerpt)
The tree shook as it broke free from the rest of the snag in the now raging river and began to float downstream, causing both Flash and Sunset to jump as the massive tree trunk rotated. “You think that’s going to make me quit!” she howled while scrabbling up the bobbing tree, ducking wet branches as they took swipes at her. “Stupid forest! You missed! I’m still here and I’m going to make it to Celestia if it’s the last thing I do!”
“You’re crazy!” shouted Flash Sentry as a bolt of lightning stabbed down from the sky and burst a tree on the far bank into blazing shards. “What do you think you’re doing?”
“I’m not crazy!” screamed Sunset. “I’m angry! I was crazy to run away from Princess Celestia twice!” The entire tree they were clutching to plunged underwater as it surged down the raging river, making Sunset splutter as they burst back onto the surface. “I’m not making that mistake again!” she screeched as soon as she had a moment to breathe.
“Sunny!” screamed Flash, pointing downriver.
“Shut up!” she screamed back. “I’m on a roll! I’m going to beat this stupid forest! I’m going to make it back to Princess Celestia to apologize! And nothing is going to stop me! Not you! Not this stupid river! Not every starving monster in Equestria! Nothing! Do you hear me, you stupid forest!”
The only answer she received was a blinding flash of lightning that coiled across the sky and illuminated the entire river in stark-white light. Or at least as much of the river as she could see until it came to an abrupt halt downstream.
Sounds like the best variety of stupid/awesome.
It's like One-Shot-Ober, but with focus!
I wish you the best of luck. It's a crazy, crazy thing.

Excelsior, sir. I'll be watching up here from the NASCAR stands, marveling at the speed.
What about Changlings, Love and Lollipops?
Good luck to everyone involved, author and characters both.
As if I didn't already have enough of your writing to catch up on...
This certainly sounds ambitious. Remember that luck favours the prepared; so instead of 'good luck' I will say 'may the horsewords flow freely and easily'.
2844663 It's not speed, it's more like 'Oh, God! I've been working on Royal Exam for over a year now and nothing has been posted. I need to get it out before S6.'
2844680 Mister Tolliver shall not escape my pen. (Hm, wonder if I could do a April Fools chapter for April 1)
2845128 May the Horse be with you... Always.
2844507 Depends on if I have any Sanity points left at the end of the month. Then again, I did survive having twin girls in high school for four years now...
2844629 Hm.... Twenty-Two Shot March doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
Huzzah! Some good news to end the night with. Thank you, Georg!
I'll leave my chips riding on 'really awesome'; the table's been hot that way since I started reading your works. Just try to not combust while keeping pace! Or at least make sure to have a bucket at the ready...
2844663 Marvel a little more. I just punched out a children's story titled The First Library of the Moochick for my Foals Tales collection. It's Sunday, so this doesn't count towards the final count.
