    A Brief Hiatus

    Hey, all!

    Well, as anyone who's following it can see, Blood and Honor has (finally) wrapped up! I hope everyone enjoyed it!

    Sorry about falling off on the updates there at the end (fumbled the LAST F*ING CHAPTER >.<). Real LifeTM kicked in my door and made me it's bitch for a while there. It's also not quite done with me yet, I'm afraid...

    The New Plan for 2024

    Hey, all!

    So, Royal Equestria Cavalry will be wrapping up in April, with just ~4 chapters left to go (and maybe an epilogue, we'll see).

    Next up, thanks to some recent rebinging of a certain sci-fi classic, is going to be:

    Roadmap Update

    Whew! Well, Cyberpony: 1077 ran a little overlong thanks to me sucking at sticking to the chapter layouts and pacing I start out with. It's certainly a chronic issue I have :( (side-eye's Legacies :trixieshiftright:) But, it is concluded, and so now we shall move on to the next story on the docket: Royal Equestrian Cavalry: Blood and Honor.

    Milestones

    Tomorrow marks 9 years and almost 2 million words for me on FimFiction!

    Wow...

    That's, like, 2 Harry Potter series worth of writing on this site. If I'd invested that time writing "real" stories, I might have become a world-famous author by now!

    Meh. Who needs that kind of pressure in their life?

    Back to torturing tiny technicolor horses for my and your amusement!

Accelerating Chapter Updates · 3:25pm Oct 27th, 2020

So, Covid has left me with a lot more writing time than I'm used to and, as a result, I've now found myself with a SIX CHAPTER buffer for Ashes. It's a buffer that's only likely to grow with time, and it's getting kind of ridiculous.

As a result, starting in November, Ashes will be getting chapter updates on the 10th, 20th, and 30th of the month until further notice.

If the buffer keeps growing after that, we'll see about weekly updates, but that feels like pushing it, honestly.

Maybe, at this rate, I'll even have Ashes wrapped up before people are put back on the moon. But not likely :P

Oh my goodness, I almost forgot entirely about this story! Well, now is a good time as any to start, am I right? :D

P.S. : Jesus man, don't burn yourself out! At this rate, you'll finish the story in a few months... Not that that is a bad thing, but still, take care of yourself too. I found, from my experiences of thevlast lockdown, that the first thing to go when you're stuck at home is your habits, especially the sports one. Once they go flying off the window, everything gets waaayyy worse: you can't concentrate anymore, you don't want to do anything and, in some cases, depression sets in. It's not a good time, O can assure you.

Long story short, take care of yourself, stay safe (and your family also!), and yay more story! Have a nice day. ^^

Funnily enough, I haven't been directly impacted by the pandemic yet. My schedule's mostly still the same; work is just...quieter. Leaving me with more time to open up google docs and...write.

Besides, it's getting colder out and I've always been an introverted homebody anyway :P

Hope you enjoy the story!
