The purpose of a story is that it's a story. It can be more, but it can never be less.

    Friendship is Magic: the Musical

    So I've been trying to find ways out of my recent funk, and this was one of the most recent attempts. I thoroughly enjoyed the freshman season of Hazbin Hotel, particularly the outstanding musical numbers and how the whole season could, with just a few small modifications, be made into a Broadway style stage musical.

    So I figured hell, why not do the same with Friendship is Magic?

    Our Last Anniversary

    I've been radio silent on social media since my now ex-wife and I announced our split. A few days ago, I was moved to write this and post it on Facebook. Figured I might as well post it here as well.

    Folks say it's pretty good.

    State of the Author 2023

    It's bad.

    Real bad.

    So it should come as no surprise that my wife and I are divorcing. We're having to take it slow because she's so close to the end of her degree and I want her to be in a good place to help take care of our boys. We're still co-habitating, still friends.

    New Story Incoming

    It's taken years. Multiple plot revisions. The complete scrapping of "Silent Night." More false starts than I'm okay admitting. And, ultimately, it took the collapse of the life as I've known it to drive me into the mindspace necessary to find this lost child in the wilderness and finally bring her home.

    I hope the wait has been worth it.

The (Real) Announcement · 8:09am Apr 3rd, 2015

My April Fools gag this year fooled apparently no one. Ah well, I was bound to strike out at some point.

I am not retiring from fanfiction. Yet.

I've taken my three accepted stories as a sign that it's time to finally knuckle down and start writing my book. Starting May 15th, I'm setting aside one hour a day, every day, to work on my first fully original piece longer than 3000 words. My goal is to have a first draft, ready to show to publishers, done no later than Christmas.

What does this mean for you?

Not much. Right now.

I'll be sticking to the Continuity (and the occasional sporadic one shot) from this point on. This sadly means that 'For Ages and Ages More' is on the shelf for the time being. 'Victory Lap' will still be finished (probably very soon) but as to 'Good Girls...' well, who knows.

So there. Nothing earth-shaking, but still a pretty big development for me.

Your continued support is always appreciated, my friends.

(Returns to writing next chapter of 'Changelings.')
