Quite a bit late. I'll try to not repeat such terrible delays in the future, but the recent heat wave has me feeling all queasy. Anyway, enjoy the chapter- and let me know what you think in the comments below.

1-A Ballad of Snow and Flames (Name Pending): A semi-dark story featuring time-travelling Rhaella x Jon Snow.
Rhaella dies giving birth to Daenerys, only to wake up young again, right before she is condemned to a life of suffering by her parents, who themselves chose love over duty. In her fervent desire to get away from her fate ...

Not as late as I feared. You want some... aftermath. Here it is. I'm not entirely happy with the chapter, but I will probably go back during the week to go over it with a clear head, preferably when my mind isn't half-addled by the new heat wave. Anyway, let me know what you think.

Was a bit late. Heat came with a vengeance, and I feel like I'm melting. Anyway, the chapter is normal-sized. Now the fun part begins. This is part of a build-up I considered from the very start of the story, so I hope it doesn't disappoint. Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments below.

Anyway, without further ado:
Chapter 42: Precipice
Chapter 43: A Fiery End

The chapter is a bit late, but I'm overall satisfied with it. The editor went to sleep, so the last scene might be a bit... raw. Not too raw. I'm mostly happy, but not fully, with how this one went. Let me know what you think in the comments.

Okay, not as late as I feared. The chapter is of ordinary length, but it's sort of a trial writing style for me. I'm happy with how both came out, and I managed to tell everything I wanted to tell without digging into excessive detail. I'm extremely happy with the chapter as it is, but I realise it probably might be quite... weird for some, as I usually don't spin things like this. Lemme know what you think.

I'm not sure how I feel about this chapter at all (and it's not because I feel sleepy as heck). It's a transitional chapter, most of it written on the fly. I planned the previous parts of year three and the following ones, and this one is supposed to glue them together. Anyway, let me know what you think.

A bit shameful, but I have to say that I've burned out from editing too much(some of you might have probably noticed it due to the extremely late updates). I got excited about the final edits, and I went about it in depth, even rewriting certain scenes (again). With the CoF chapter this week and some real-life stuff that demands my attention, I have decided to take a break.
Anyway, I did a chapter and a half, so I will post the edited chapter, and posting will resume on the...
A bit late. Some aftermath. Some drama, but not too much. The chapter went somewhat faster than I expected, to be honest. It doesn't feel like I wrote 6k words, but here I am. Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments.

I know I'm late... but I rewrote certain things again on the final read-over.

Mostly on time... or not too late of a chapter. Normal-sized. I'm not entirely happy with it, but I fit everything I planned to write. As usual, this last arc continues being far more serious/dark thematically. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

Oh look, the plot is thickening. My head has sorta grown numb from writing, and I'm not entirely happy(or unhappy) with the chapter, so I'll probably go back to it later as I usually do(the problems in the previous chapters should be fixed now). Anyway, lemme know what you think in the comments below.

I don't think I can keep up the pace with releasing ten per week, so we're down to five per week.
Editing those was quite tiring, but I managed to push through.

Okay, that was a doozy to write, both longer than I thought and shorter than I hoped for. It's a bit raw and unedited cause my editor is asleep, so I'll be posting now since I'm already late. Anyway, lemme know what you think in the comments!

Editing those was a doozy. I had some edits done last week, but the whole day flew by as I worked on the rest of it. A sentence here that didn't flow to my liking, a line of dialogue there that I found too stiff, and I might have added a few thousand words... Next week, I think I'll post only five chapters to give myself some time to catch up on proper edits and review everything thoroughly.

A chapter not as late as usual! The previous chapter is edited again. I'm fairly satisfied with this one, but I'm sure there will be a few things I'll find to nitpick later in the week (or that you will find to nitpick). Anyway, lemme know what you think in the comments.

Apologies for the delay, I really felt under the weather yesterday, and could barely write. Anyway, the chapter is out, and it's a normal-sized one. A bit of a transition, but we see things rarely go according to plan. I'm not entirely happy with the chapter, but then again, I rarely am on a first write, and my mind is still a bit dazed.

To my great distress, I realised that with the rewrite, many of the chapters were entirely new or partitioned differently, and many of their previous titles were no longer fitting. I spent 30 minutes just now trying to come up with new names.

First, happy Easter to all of you who celebrate it!
For those who missed it, I edited and smoothed out the last chapter (15).
Anyway, a normal-sized chapter, and it comes out early (mostly on time) tonight. Mostly. Then, we finally come to the other pivotal chapter that I planned from the start. If I have to put it in terms, this marks the beginning of the last(third) arc. I'm not fully satisfied with the chapter, and will probably come for a round of polish later this week. Le...
What is The Breaker's Tale? It's tossing a very old and jaded Harry Potter from a broken world into the body of a freshly dead Jon Snow in a mixed setting of book and show. Does it make sense? Probably not. Did I enjoy writing and rewriting it? Hell yes.
It's been nearly two years since I started the rewrite. I promised to do it as a side project, and I actually finished it as I said I would! I am well aware that DW is a very flawed and cracky story, but it was the story that got me i...
For those who have not checked the edits in the previous chapter I recommend doing so - the difference is most significant in Rhaena's PoV, at least towards the end (nothing beyond Jon and Rhaena's relationship had changed, of course)
Anyway, this chapter is a bit long. A tad unedited, but I'm rather happy with how it came out.

For those of you who missed it, I've rewritten chapter 14(it's about 2k words longer), and the J&R dynamic should be more consistent and a tad different than the og iteration.
That being said, I'm pretty frustrated with Midjourney. Jon Snow remains the hardest character to pin down, but these were the two most satisfying attempts that I got. It didn't help that the new version of MJ somehow feels like a downgrade despite being lauded as 'better'.
Whew, that was a doozy. I'm not too late this time. The chapter was quite fun to write, and came out unexpectedly longer than I thought. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

A tad late, but an extra-long chapter, since I wanted to keep writing more and more until I arrived at my planned point. I also again decided to hug the canon divergence, if vaguely told by excerpts without dragging on unimportant PoVs (especially since I arrived at the parts of the Dance that made even less and less sense) Let me know what you think in the comments.

Oh look, some aftermath, and the die is cast. The chapter is not too long, not too short, and probably not that exciting, but we can't have constant excitement and escalation. I also wanted to sort of skip ahead, but I realised a lot of things have to be shown. I suppose. Let me know what you think.

Apologies for the delay-I'm still not feeling too well. Here's the chapter, but be warned - it's a tad raw and wholly unedited. Do let me know what you think.
