...It's finished. Finally. At long last. The rough draft of the last chapter of Breathers for Applejack...is complete. It's finally complete. I want to run up to the top of something and scream whilst tearing my shirt off. Now, of course, the bad news is that it's not done done, I still need to go over it and do a second draft, but, fortunately, revising it doesn't take nearly as much time or effort as putting the damn thing on the page in the first place. But, it will also be a four-parter. Eh, it happens. Whatever. I don't care. This story is finished, and now I just have to make it good. Thank you all so much for being so patient wit

Hello all!  It's been a long time since I've written a journal, so I figured I'd give you guys an update as to what's been going on. Progress on Breathers continues.  There was a time when it did not continue, but some shit happened that has given me cause to try and force myself into good habits, so I've been steadily pecking away at it, one page a day.  I've made more progress in the last couple weeks than I have in the 8 month span between now and part 1.  I've extensively outlined the whole thing in a notebook and I'm translating that to the document, which makes things easier.  In trying to end this whole saga with a suitably climactic

Yeah, I'm Harry Pottering that shit, don't even care. The sense of relief that I'm finally finishing this story is amazing.  I'm working on the second half now, and after that I'm DONE.  It'll be FINISHED.  I can FINALLY start publishing some of my other crap.  Not saying that I won't ever write pony stuff again, I just need to...take a break from it for a while.  Hopefully you understand. For now, I'm at the stage where I re-read it and have to edit/update the thing I just uploaded across three different websites cause I keep noticing things I somehow missed in my proofreading pass.
