What to say, what to say? Well I live in Utah, and I like Ponies, and Doctor Who, and Doctor Who combined with Ponies.

    A translation finished and another new one.

    So the Chinese translation of A Friend of the Night I mentioned a few posts ago got finished today. Find it here. It was quite a ride to follow it, even though all I could do was get a 'close enough' translation from Google Translate. It was interesting, seeing through post scripts and such, some of the difficulties that translating comes with. A few

    As I'm finally getting around to resurrecting it, I figured a quick story recap of Time Keeps Wibbling On would be appreciated so:

    "Friend of the Night" getting a Chinese translation.

    I was contacted by a fan by the handle of "Professionalism" who asked me if they could translate "FotN" into Chinese. I said yes, naturally :)

Returning to activity. Hopefully for a while yet. · 6:21am Sep 25th, 2014

Sorry about the long absence here. Writing reached that point where it was feeling more like a chore than an enjoyment, so I had to take a brief break. Still got a new chapter out, so that's good. And while I haven't been terribly active on the writing side, there has been some exciting--at least to me--things happening with my stories over the last few months.

First of all, A Friend of the Night was accepted by the Royal Guard. As this was a group you have to submit yourself, with prereaders and the like, I had to go back and re-edit that particular piece, making it now on it's... third revision I think. Nothing's changed from a plot perspective, but the reading is a bit cleaner, and the word count somewhat affected.

Spike's Hoard has been given a Dramatic Reading by Dr. Wolf, found here. It's very well read, and I'm uber flattered that he did it. It makes me squee.

A Storm of Chaos: A Doctor Whooves Adventure has been given a TVtropes page. And it wasn't started my me, either. (I always felt it bad form if I were to start a TVtropes page of my own work. That said, I'm not above shilling it now that it's made, so any Tropers out there, please contribute :) )

And, most recently, Cheese n' Crackers was reviewed and put on Seattle's Angels, which is a particular honor in that I couldn't have submitted the story if I wanted to, somebody else did, and the whole point of the group is to bring attention to underviewed but good works.

So, all in all, I've had a pretty good couple of months, from a recognition side of things, especially since I'm such a relatively small-time writer in this here fandom. And I owe it all to you guys out there who do read my stuff and follow me. Cheers to you all, and I'll try to get my next chapter out much faster this time.

Glad to see you back. I love the latest chapter! Looking forward to more :3

Awesome re: the TV Tropes page. Took as look and can think of a couple tropes to add when the opportunity arises (like Graceful in their Element for Derpy)
