Well, chapter 2 is done, and waiting for proofreading! Now I'm about to start on chapter 3, and after yesterday I'm more than ready to work on a new chapter, what with all the corrections I had to make. For some reason I kept messing RD's dialog - and only hers - that's what was so weird about it, made her sound like she was drunk as hell lol! I mean we had such gems as, "We got fin te uters Rarity!" and lets not forget, "Don't Twilight worry! The cavalry are her!" and the ever memorable, Their Pinkie for it now in!". Seriously, I have NO idea why I couldn't RD with my writing on this one, though I got to admit, now I want to write a scene for Rainbow where she's completely b-snamered off her plot just for the s&g's . Also, because I'm going to have to write some none-English words at some point for my fic, I had to set up an English-international keyboard setting. Care to know how long that took?...2 hours and 44 minutes, of research, setting and resetting my computer, sobbing, screaming and cursing out every deity I could think, and just generally fighting with microsoft...again. I get into it with them at least once a month, and sadly I've got waaaayyyy to much stuff connected to their services to just drop them...and I think they know it, is the worst part, and all just so I could type this, "ö" witch let me tell you - even after all the work I did just to make typing that possible - involves the single most convoluted series of button-input combos just to type that one little letter, that I have ever seen IN MY LIFE, PERIOD!...so...yea...that was fun.... That's (hopefully) all behind me now, so its off to chapter 3 with me, see you next time!
Quick mini update, just a little left on chapter two! I've also just finished updating the prolog chapter with all the tweaks and corrections from proofreading! I may release a little teaser-esque thingy or something prior to publishing the first three chapters, so be on the lookout for that! Till next time!
Progress is coming along nicely, With chapter 2 more than halfway done, and chapter 0 (prolog chapter) nearly through proofreading, I hope to have the first three chapters released within approximately 2 months! Now I know that sounds like a long time (mostly because it is) but I have my reasons. #1 My proofreader (who is very good at their job) has really long, really random hours at their job and only has a limited amount of time to work on my fic, though in spite of this she's still making great time! #2 I want to have at least the first three chapters ready to publish together, because I want people to at least give the first three chapters a try before passing judgment as they set up a lot of the rest of the story. #3 I've got other projects I'm working on so there's simply not enough hours in the day or energy in my body to work on everything in one day and still produce anything that meet my standards and if I don't think something is at least somewhat above average IT WILL NOT SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY, PERIOD! So that's why it may still be awhile before publication, I just want it to be the best it can be, though I may release some teaser-espue stuff for it closer to then so keep your eyes pealed for that! Until next time! (by the way esque is a pain to deal with in writing fwi!)
Well after much consideration I've decided to up my fanfic's rating to M. This is do to a number of factors, but namely because there a number of mature issues that I may cover throughout the cores of the story, one of them being when is it necessary to take life (such as when fighting for one's own life) and when it's not (such as when someone does so out of hate or fear) and many other "hot button" issues. Though there the fic as a whole will not be constant death and misery, such elements are key to telling the story I want to tell and watering them down just for the sake of keeping a T rating would be doing both the story and myself a disservice which would be both abhorrent and inexcusable. So...yea, wont be posting a link her to it out of respect to both the rules of this board, the staff, and all you wonderful users out there, fear not though, I'll still let you know when its out, and as long as we obey said site rules we should still be able to talk about it here. If anyone has any questions about this fic (provided your not asking for spoilers) I'll be happy to answer asap, and I may yet post an excerpt fro it that doesn't have anything in it that would violate the rules, so that might be a thing later. Thank you for your patients and understanding, see you around and have a nice day!
Wellp - I'm done with winter. Thanks to the weather changing I'm so achy all over that I can't get to sleep and my sinuous issues aren't helping! Think I might get some writing done, hate wasting time just lying around in pain. If I can't get to sleep might as well accomplish something if possible, hopefully once the weather is clear I'll fell better. Sadly I live in Ohio USA, and when it comes to the weather here I saw it best described in a meme on facebook yesterday - Nature: "You can't have every season in one week!" Ohio: "*hic* Hold my beer!" - you might think that's a joke or an exaggeration but its NOT! One day it was in about the low 50's, the next day it was in the higher 70's, and the day after that we had a snow storm! Think Ohio might be bipolar with sociopathic tendencies.
Thought I'd test this blog thing and do a bit of boasting. Been working on a fanfic for the last week or so and stuff just keeps on lining up with little plot device type things. Can't go into too much detail just yet and sadly, do to it likely getting ether a light M rating or a heavy T rating Probably wont be able to post a link to it here, but once it comes out if you go to my Fimfiction account (which is also called CHA0SXIII) you can likely find it. Will post more updates as time passes and hope to see you there once its out! Also, if you have any questions about it, as long as they don't involve spoiling anything, I'd be happy to try and answer them. Just bear in mind that my schedule is very unpredictable and it might take me awhile to get back to you, so sorry in advance. :/
