Hi, I'm British, and you're reading a bunch of stuff you don't really care about! Yay! Go easy on me, I'm still finding my way around.

    The Walking Dead; Or, My Plans

    The planets have aligned, hype has been gathered, and I'm now back. The logical step now is to outline in somewhat more detail what I'm going to be doing, so far as I've actually planned that in advance.

    The TVH1 Drinking Game

    While reading any of my writing,
    - Take a sip every time there's a spelling or grammar error
    - Take a sip every time the story is in present tense for no apparent reason.
    - Take a sip every time I self-parody or self-depreciate either in the story or the comments for that chapter.

    Yet another new story

    Yup, it happened again. I've been flitting between stories recently, and ended up not making progress on most of them for a while. In the end, I started a new one, since I felt it was about time. It's a sequel to Music, picking up roughly where the first left off. My current plan is for it to have Vinyl as more of a viewpoint character, in contrast to the first where most of the narration was

    Why Fear takes ages: a Primer

    I updated Fear a few days ago, and I let it sit for a little bit so the people who read it would have chance to do so. Now, I usually do a blog post accompanying chapter updates for Fear, but I didn't do it straight away this time. And the reason for this is, believe it or not, the same reason I update so slowly on the main story. Here it is:

    Fear is bloody exhausting.

Writer's block, ho hum · 7:41pm Mar 21st, 2013

See title, essentially. I've been struggling away with it for a while now, and thus have produced very little in the past several weeks; I can get maybe 300 words a day if I'm lucky before it feels like I'm smashing my face against a brick wall. I have not, of course, been wasting my time. Even though I can't produce very much in terms of actual writing at the moment, I've been doing idea generation quite faithfully, so the moment I can get anything down, I'll have more than enough to write about.

As for the progress I've actually made: about 1200 words of Fear, comprising mainly of a Twilight segment and a Spike segment (it's weird how much screentime Spike is actually getting in Fear nowadays), before switching to Music postseries thing in an attempt to break the doldrums and doing 1000 words of that. I've also been adding very quietly to that one oneshot I might not ever post, and that's at 1500 words or so. So, nothing, essentially.

I notice that the site is now quite different (I didn't look at it for a couple weeks, my bad). Seems a lot more like twitter/youtube with the feeds that require more loading once you get on the page, which has always seemed dumb to me. Oh well. The site is the site, and that's just something users have to deal with, I suppose.

So, yeah. Just confirming I am still alive, and there will be updates eventually. (I always feel like I should apologise whenever I have writer's block, since that keeps people waiting for updates. Then I realise that I do this for free, and I'm not actually obliged to keep on doing it for any reason. But I still feel like I should say sorry. It's weird. Oh well. I honestly doubt too many people care, anyway.)

I'm cool with it, so long as you don't take sudden three month absences. :trollestia:

We care! :pinkiesad2:
We just don't hold it against you.
Life happens, blocks happen, and writing shouldn't be a job here :twilightsmile:

Glad to hear you're still alive! Sorry to hear about the writer's block. :fluttershysad:

Was it only three months? It felt like longer. xD

Good to know. I sometimes feel like writing is a job, but then I look at my bank account and realise I'd probably be somewhat richer if it was.

Not as sorry as I am, believe me! Also, sorry for letting my comments go unanswered for so long.

You're fine, you're fine. No worries.:twilightsmile:
