    Adulting is hard.

    Buying a house is hard. Just saying that right now.

    So some minor improvements.

    We have a new person at work, and they appear to be getting used to the job quite quickly. My phone, meanwhile, has been fixed, and I have gone to great effort to thank my current phone provider for having so much better customer service than my previous provider.

    Househunting is still ongoing, but even that appears to be making some positive progress.

    I don't think it's getting better.

    So the good news is that we have a new supervisor at my job. The bad news is that one, the new supervisor is sick with something and her doctors are failing to help her get better, and two, the job is taking its sweet time hiring anyone new. This coupled with various unforeseen factors led to last week being a pain in the hindquarters at work. Plus, my househunting isn't going well, and my phone

    I think my job is trying to give me PTSD.

    I was awoken by a phone call this morning. Work asked me to come in, as things were crazy. I did so, was there from around 9:30 AM to 6PM. Worked without a lunch break, I might add.

    The Moral Event Horizon.

    Gonna discuss another trope today in relation to the Quiververse. In this case, it's the Moral Event Horizon. In simple terms, this is the point a character passes that forever marks them as EVIL and potentially irredeemable. TVTropes itself lists a few examples from FiM, and I won't repeat them here...though I will say that

Apologies in advance. · 2:56am Mar 22nd, 2018

There's a very good chance that, despite it almost being done, I won't have the next chapter for Scars of the Quill online and ready for viewing this coming Friday. The reason for this is actually very good - I might just have employment again starting tomorrow, and any time spent at work is obviously going to take away from the writing.

In any case, wish me luck folks, and I'll do my best to get the next chapter out as soon as I'm able.

Hey, that's perfectly fine! Wish you all the best, friend!

Is fine! I know perfectly well how personal life can get in the way of writing... that and procrastination.

There's no need to apologize. As I've said multiple times before, real life is more important than pony. And from a real life perspective, this is cause for celebration, not remorse.

Thanks, all of you. And as for the job, well, I'm happy to say that it's more likely than not that I've got it.

Well, I can promise that the next chapter at least is coming. I literally just finished typing it up within the last twenty minutes. I'm going to start serious work on the next one after that, circumstances permitting, tomorrow.
