    If you haven't read this, you need to

    Fresh from the "it's a crime if this doesn't get featured" list, is the short story Riverdream At Sunset.

    It's written as an 1800's period piece, with trappings more than reminiscent of Doyle or Verne and absolutely hits the spot on the whole look and feel.

    I blame it on Terry Pratchett

    Years ago, at school, I picked up a book. I blame what happened next on Terry Pratchett.

    state of the bunny, 2015

    So it's a new year.

    The previous one has passed much like every other one did, with a bang as much as with a whimper. For a while here, it was sodding cold, and I mean real proper brass monkey weather. Right now it's barely below zero, and instead of snow we've got rain and ice. Seriously, I could skate down my driveway.

    "chrysalis vs hearth's warming" may be a little late

    I know, I know: I missed hearth's warming.

    Well, I'm still writing my christmas special so you'll just have to wait. I think it'll be worth it...

    it features everyone's favourite changeling queen and her endless quest to destroy all love and happiness everywhere - this time by blowing up cinder claws and destroying hearth's warming. And how that doesn't quite go according to plan...

    I made a list, I checked it twice. Not sure to find out how is naughty or nice...

    Anywag, the winners of my admittedly haphazard and wonky contest were:

    Sypher Magical Trevor
    Professor Plum

Oh mah gawd, it's alive! It's ALLIIVVEEE! (muahahaaa) · 5:33am Sep 9th, 2014

Yah yah, I know: long time no see.

Well, I thought I should kind of fix that. 'Kind of' because I'm kind of scatterbrained at the moment, don't really have the time to dedicate to a proper entry and a third reason which totally helps explain things. I have been busy in life. The good sort of busy, I guess, which leads to not much writing but doesn't lead to horrible depression and ennui. I've not really had much time to interact here, so... I'm alive. And writing - slowly.

When it comes out, out and about chapter 10 will be the last. I hope it's as awesome as it is in my head...

And when it comes out, king of diamonds chapter 28 won't be the last... but it will also be awesome.

Promises, promises, I know, but almost one thousand people can't be that wrong, can they? Yes, that's right, almost a thousand people think I'm kinda awesome! I'm shocked. I'm also hoping that it's a modicum of talent and not merely having been here forever.

So what have I been doing when not-writing? We-eelll... I've been coding. It might be going somewhere. And once I finish (actually, once it's 'good enough') then I might use what I've learned on something else. Something writing-y related.

Stay tuned.

So, what've you all been up to?

Glad to hear from you again, Midnight! i hope that your extra curricular activities in the lands of the code monkey have proved.. fruitful.

I... honestly haven't been up to much at all.. Good gods, I haven't even read the last chapter of Out And About yet :facehoof:

It's great to hear that your life is back on a positive track and that you're feeling good! :twilightsmile: :yay::raritywink::ajsmug::pinkiehappy::rainbowlaugh:

Working, working out in my mad effort to join the Navy (or maybe the Air Force or the Army, the jury's still out on them), and generally spending my days of staring at blank Google Docs :ajsleepy:

Getting the life sucked out of me in nursing school while I wait here for more adventures of Chip and the gang to take my mind away from the evils of this world into a land of awesome! Even if that land wants to kill Chip and company :p

Life has been getting in the way. Very shortly I should either be a mere memory or back in the saddle. I apologise for the wait.

3302304 No problem. I'm just glad to hear that you're still thinking about it! :scootangel:
