    Signs of Life

    Neither I nor Millennium Wake (part II) are dead.

    Yet.

    As some of you may have noticed, bad things happen when I set down a timeline.
    Therefore, I am specifically not saying that I expect to have chapter 2 (26) finished by the end of next week.

    Speculation (the other other road not taken)

    The other day I received an interesting prompt from Regreme,

    how do you think it'd be possible for the Elements of Harmony to be swapped in different ways due to changes to their lives as fillies?

    The future is soon-ish (Millennium Wake pt II news)


    I'm assuming everyone here has read Millennium Wake (now 'part I'). If not, that's a link, go do yourself a favor and read it.

    I'm also going to assume that you know I've agreed to continue the story, six weeks ago. I make a lot of assumptions, it's a thing.

The episode in question was called 'The Shy Baboon', from Feb 8, 2010.

That's it.
No deeper meaning, I just found the idea interesting.

Hmm... as an NPR listener I'll have to check it out.
