    The Thing Is

    Every now and then, I get to stick my head up and realize - it isn't so bad out here, doing what I do, or more accurately, believing I am doing what I said I'd do.

    Every now and then that voice that taunts and jeers, that tells me that this won't mean anything or pan out the way I want it to, has to harrumph and look away.

    Writing is an Act of Faith

    TLDR: in which I do some somewhat philosophical ramblings about writing, because it's late, it's been a tough week, and I just need to get some words out. The power of the stream-of-consciousness essay should not be understated, even if it's completely counter to the premise of an essay.


    I've long held that writing is an act of faith, if not the product of it.

    What We Talk About When We Talk About Writing - A Small Update

    (At this point, maybe every blog will have a title referencing some literary work, for funsies)

    Hi, everyone! I thought I'd drop by with a quick update as to what I've been working on. Nothing too fancy - I'm not good at making a blog look like that - but I figure this might interest some of you.

    Where I'm Calling From

    Introduction: A Confession

    I lied. 

    Well, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration. It would be more accurate to say that I opted for a partial truth. In the words of Carlos Ruiz Zafon, “Perhaps, as always, a lie was what would most resemble the truth”1—and in this fashion, I did lie.

What's Coming Up? · 9:05pm Sep 8th, 2015

Hey all,

Just wanted to let you all know a few things.

One:
I'm sorry that I haven't updated some of my stories in a while. Due to school mostly, I've been having less time in the day to actually write. I'm also trying to focus more on my education, as last year I cut it close with my Math grades. (Thankfully, it appears that my mind is hardwired for Geometry more than Algebra.) The next chapter of Nix: Collision, however, will likely not come out for quite some time, as I am busy juggling several other projects.

Two:
I am not only busy writing out the next chapters of A Prose By Any Other Name, I am also going to start thinking over some different things. For one, I intend to write a sequel to Unpredictable Beauty, and add it to my Discord Teaches saga/universe. For another (and this is huge for me), I think it's time that I once again try my hand at writing another, non-pony story.

(Yes, I've written those before, long before I became a brony.)

I'm a bit low on ideas, but I have an idea of themes that I would want to implement. This will be something that I might work on in between stories, perhaps use it as an actual novel in the future. I do plan on being an author, after all, and I figured that writing something non-pony again would help.

Some of the stories that I've written in the past, that are non-MLP related, can be found in the links below:

Logic
Trick (incomplete)
X25

Let me know what you think.

Three:
So Saturday is coming up, and with it (or so I've heard) comes the next episode of MLP.

Only took them a fucking month...

I would be looking forward to that, but there is one thing that is happening that is making me more nervous than ever.

I'll go into more detail on it in the coming days. Just... wish me luck, because I think I'm going to need it.



So that's that, then. This is going to be what's going on, regarding me, in the coming days. Here's to hoping things go without much difficulty.
