my current urban fantasy story, "Saga of Soul".

Oh hey, I have encountered this thing in the past and I think you have interacted with one of my beta readers and you promoted my friend Emily's Kickstarter. Hi!

Hello! Unless I'm mistaken, you're the author of Hi to Tsuki to Hoshi no Tama? I used to read that.

Comment author: Alicorn 27 July 2013 06:45:44PM 3 points [-]

I am, yes, but I now consider all the webcomics I used to do embarrassing and would rather steer you towards my more recent prose, like Luminosity.

Well, it's your call. But for what it's worth, I enjoyed HtTtHnT when it was running (particularly how the protagonists handled the loss of their secret identities).

Luminosity sounds like an interesting idea, though I'll confess I've never read any of the Twilight books...

Well, you could always try reading the first few chapters and stop if you don't like it >:D

Luminosity requires no knowledge of nor affection for canon Twilight.

Speaking of your recent prose, what's the update schedule on Goldmage?

Comment author: Alicorn 27 July 2013 06:50:02PM 2 points [-]

Goldmage is stalled due to plothole. (Basically, I thought I could write about goldmagic without doing any math, and this doesn't seem to be the case.) I don't have an ETA on fixing it. Elcenia is not suffering from that specific problem but my life in general is being eaten by a freeform roleplay thing I am doing that leaves me with this tendency to open story files, stare at them, and then close them.

Damn, that's too bad. I really thought it was a clever idea. And to end on a cliffhanger! Sigh.

I haven't actually decided to abandon the story, it just needs math to happen and a significant part of my brain wants the math to happen via magic.

I... understand? A significant part of my brain always wants math to happen via magic.

Sometimes it does! Sort of.
