One Year of Fallen Canterlot · 6:35pm Jun 25th, 2018
So, a year ago today I released the first chapter of Fallen Canterlot, and what a journey it has been.
I started off hoping that each chapter would be released every two weeks, and for a while I kept to that. But then I got a job. And then more life got in the way. So, in short, I'm so sorry that the updates have been very few and far between this year.
Rest assured, that chapter 9 is in the works and is currently going through its second draft. If all goes well it will come out within the next 2 weeks.
I've learned a lot with my time writing. Mostly it's crippling doubt that my story is any good and the plot is going in a good direction (The outline has been rewritten many times). Writing is hard. Writing good is harder. And the more I wrote, the better I thought I would get, but instead I just kept doubting myself.
Another reason why I haven't written much is because, simply a lot of my free time has been taken up working on the Equestria at War mod for the game Hearts of Iron 4. I recommend you check it out if you're remotely interested in the game.
Still, I have found my pace again and I am currently working on the next chapter. Thank you everyone who has read, favourited, liked and commented on Fallen Canterlot. I hope that you can just stick with me a bit longer.
See you all later.
It's alright, take your time

That.
And don’T worry thoise of us still remembering you are here, do like your story.
Now get back to writing and enjoy some cake and coffee/tee/ hot chocolate.
As I've told you before, you shouldn't worry so much. You write well, and while there's always room for improvement that doesn't mean you have to be too hard on yourself either. Everyone tends to go through the same thing you do when writing, and doubt is normal. Doesn't mean you're a bad writer at all, or aren't improving. Also while you may not have maintained the update rate you wanted, 82K of story in one year is still pretty impressive. There are novels around that length. You're doing great man.
