    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.

    Going to a con might have been just what I needed...

    ... to get back into the fanfic writing game.

    I might totally be jinxing it by talking about it here, but I also think me saying it at all holds me to it, in a way.

    Or maybe I'm just superstitious. Many writers are. :P

Status Update · 12:36am Oct 1st, 2015

As September draws to a close, I suppose it's only natural that I provide a run-down of what I'm working on.

1)

The next chapter of A Prose By Any Other Name will be released, tentatively, by next Sunday—the fourth of October. Chapters Thirteen and Fourteen are also in the works—though I did write the two in somewhat out of order. Hopefully, I'll be able to release them every Sunday, if I can.

That's right; I'm going to try and write and post on a weekly basis. I'm hoping it won't be too hard; the story is reaching its closing ends.

2) A sequel?

Two, actually. One, for my Discord teaches saga. I'm having some difficulty in deciding what to write it on, though.

The other, for A Prose By Any Other Name. Yes, that is correct; this will have a sequel. And I'm very excited by this prospect! :pinkiehappy:

3) Nix: Collision?
I must confess. I'm not feeling at all motivated to continue writing the story. It's become bothersome to write it, and I don't feel the same drive as I did in the past. I won't put it on Hiatus, but it will be Incomplete for a very long time.


So, that's about it. As you can tell, I'm changing a few things to my work schedule. Hopefully, I'll be able to stick to it.
