    Also, Commissions For Charity

    So right now I’m offering vignettes (roughly 1000-2000 words) as commissions, but instead of paying me you make a donation to charity. Any charity. If you need suggestions, then:

    Charity: Center for Disaster Philanthropy

    So okay. Originally I was going to raise money for something closer to home but the barn has secured a grant that makes me less worried about it, and I think my efforts would be better focused here.

    Next Month: Charity Time

    So I'm thinking that next month I'd like to run a charity event, but this will be a little different from previous events and I'm trying to figure out how to make it work.

    Happy Hearts and Hooves

    In other news, I'm going to be getting a charity thing up and running maybe next month, so that should be exciting. We'll see how it goes, though. The format will be a little different but hopefully it'll be a lot of fun for everyone.

    Here's To The New Year

    So it hasn't been exactly the best year, really. While I've had a record amount of commissions, it's cut into personal writing time. There's also the whole "working with actual horses" thing, and the fact that, you know, that seems to be even more of a passion for me than writing is. Not that I'm planning to stop writing or anything.

Sleipnir's Big Adventure · 9:04pm Jul 7th, 2014

Today I completed the story, which means I'll be editing it over quickly, and hopefully posting will start by the end of the week. It's... I don't even know what's short or long anymore. It's a little over 300K words, we'll go with that. There's a whole bunch of adventures, from the Mines of Horsia to the Lich King. And through it all, Sleipnir gets to travel with a uh... particularly fun sidekick, we'll put it that way. Hopefully it should be an enjoyable adventure/comedy, and on the bright side it should be a little lighter than what I've usually done.
And oh, right. Even though it kind of takes place during Glory Be, there's not really any major spoilers you have to worry about. A few hints here and there, but otherwise it's a stand-alone story that people should be able to just pick up and enjoy, since I know a few people were wondering about that.

Derp. Sorry for the double post. Still trying to get used to this new computer.

This is going to be awesome

I'm hoping so. It should bring my Lord of the Rings parodying to new levels.

Finally a new fix.

Roughly 300k words?
Roughly 30 hours (at my speed) of time to read the amazing adventures of everyone's favourite big lovable stallion...
...I just can't think of a way to say that in which it doesn't sound odd.

Odd can be good. And hopefully it'll be half as good as people expect. Doing a whole Sleipnir story ended up being surprisingly challenging.

Well, that's great. I think I'm gonna finish rereading SK and then I'll start this story.
I'll even pretend that I believe you that it wouldn't be that dark; it almost worked with your two latest stories, after all.

True, but the difference this time is it's about Sleipnir. And with Sleipnir, things can never get too unhappy.
