    Also, Commissions For Charity

    So right now I’m offering vignettes (roughly 1000-2000 words) as commissions, but instead of paying me you make a donation to charity. Any charity. If you need suggestions, then:

    Charity: Center for Disaster Philanthropy

    So okay. Originally I was going to raise money for something closer to home but the barn has secured a grant that makes me less worried about it, and I think my efforts would be better focused here.

    Next Month: Charity Time

    So I'm thinking that next month I'd like to run a charity event, but this will be a little different from previous events and I'm trying to figure out how to make it work.

    Happy Hearts and Hooves

    In other news, I'm going to be getting a charity thing up and running maybe next month, so that should be exciting. We'll see how it goes, though. The format will be a little different but hopefully it'll be a lot of fun for everyone.

    Here's To The New Year

    So it hasn't been exactly the best year, really. While I've had a record amount of commissions, it's cut into personal writing time. There's also the whole "working with actual horses" thing, and the fact that, you know, that seems to be even more of a passion for me than writing is. Not that I'm planning to stop writing or anything.

Well. · 8:47pm Jan 20th, 2017

So I've been meandering back and forth pointlessly, trying to figure out what to write next. I think I finally have it, though.
It won't be a ponystory, but it'll be familiar characters. Think Cowlick and Rainbro in the Valk universe.
That's actually it.
Cowlick and "Reese." I've actually written a story with them before that's pretty crazily offensive because, you know, it's Cowlick. I've always wanted to expand on that, though: I mean, it's not exactly like Cowlick understands what Reese is actually going through, and Reese can't just. Magically explain it. Plus, you know. Human world, human rules, there is no magical solution.
It'll touch on a lot of sensitive topics and probably make a lot of people really mad. Which is, you know, what I do best. But I haven't written anything that's not "action action action" for a while and I'd like to show what I can do in a field that isn't people kicking each other in the face.
It's going to be a novella, I think. Relatively short because I don't want a hundred thousand words of drama. This won't be part of the main Valk series, so I'm going to put it up on FictionPress. Cowlick doesn't appear in the books until... Trickster, I think? Which is number three.
I talk like I'm ever going to actually chase publishing them all. I'm probably going to be dead before that happens.
It'll be great, though. Cowlick's awful. People will make wild, baseless accusations at me based upon the actions of fictional characters. It'll be great. You'll love it.

When you say relatively short... :twilightoops: I don't know what exactly that means, since most of your stories have +300K words. :pinkiehappy::rainbowlaugh:

Although, I'm glad to hear that there's going to be a new story! Cowlick, huh? Cool. Tell us when it's out!
