Minor Aneurisms and Montreal Nightfall · 12:56am Aug 26th, 2013
Bazam. My head is throbbing and the ibuprofen hasn't kicked in yet. What better time to write a hasty blog before slamming my head in the door a few times?
Kaplow.
Now that hasn't happened in a really long damn time. As in since I made my way back from my six-month-long soul-searching thingiemajig. It's funny, now that it's happened again. I was nailing the whole "washed up, crusty has-been" thing pretty well, but I guess I'm not even allowed to have that anymore. So I guess it's back to the usual "cheap hack" thing I've got going. So in an attempt to keep things brief, because my headache is only now starting to ease and because I've got stuff to do—for reasons I'll explain—lemme give you guys a bit of a breather and give you an answer to the uh... general quesiton.
"What in the name of Roseluck's perfect mane was that?"
Hopefully I'm not paraphrasing too much. What we've all had the misfortune to witness was chapter one to the big epic fic thing that I've been hyping for a while now: Bezithan. So whassit gonna be? Some people were a bit miffed that I chose the route of the pretentious reject again by not even giving you a straight answer as to what the damn shmorgashborg of words I concocted is even about. Well, let me try to give you an idea. Bezithan is gonna be a slice-of-life-ish romp through a strange, bizarre tale of world-building, arrogantly symbolic characters, and overall oddity.
This first chapter didn't give y'all much in terms of an idea of what this thing's gonna be about, but what I think I've managed to do is lay out the cards on the table, and my next task is to start fiddling with them. The response, while mixed, has been overall positive, and I really damn well hope that I can make this fic worth the attention and love that you guys have been giving it, because that's the most I can hope to achieve. So I guess that's my convoluted way of thanking you guys. More importantly, it'll be my way of thanking all the people that made this awesome idea possible (none of whom I'll link here because I did it already in the story description and I'm tired damnit). But they're awesome, and they've helped me in more ways than one, be it making amazing cover art for me, giving me insane ideas, pimping me out, or just straight up teaching me how to write like less of a moron. They're awesome and deserve voluminous and multiple pattings of the back. Go do that.
As for me? I'm moving into my new university and have just now been able to sit down in my dorm. So that's a thing, and it might be a while before I get time to sit down and write again. But something about this place is rubbing me right, considering I was able to sit down and write this entire spiel without even taking a break. And I can never do that usually. It's a sign, and I think good things are coming my way, so I swear to do my best to convert that into the best possible fic I can accomplish.
Ladies, gents, I humbly thank you for all the attention, love, and criticism you've given me thus far. I'll do my best to make it worth your while. It's my best foot forward, no more no less. So let's see what we can come up with, and I hope that you'll enjoy the ride with me.

You deserve the feature, really.
You're quite good. And I look forward to the fun to continue!

Don't let the days go by. Bezithan.

We could have met up.
