    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

    It never ends. It just...never...ends...

    So work decided to throw another curve ball at me. My supervisor has been transferred to another store. That means that I've had six supervisors in my department across six years, and it could take weeks, maybe even months, for us to get a new one. Which means I'm going to continue to be worked to death.

    So, I'm writing again.

    It's not much, but I got some writing done today. Now, be warned, it's going to be a very long time before I do anything related to the Quiververse again, but I'm hoping that time frame will be measured in months rather than a year.

    Still, at least I'm making some progress.

    A question to my readers.

    When I started serious work on the Quiververse, I made myself a promise. That promise was thus, to do the best I can to use whatever characters appear in a story to the best of my ability. I like to think I've done that, as various canon characters are reasonably consistent with their portrayals in the show (and arguably are undergoing development, though that's up to the reader), and my OCs have

Might be jumping the gun, but I'm hedging my bets. · 2:55am Mar 21st, 2019

I'm still optimistic that Chapter Six for Many Happy Reunions will be ready for my intended release date of April 5th - most of the chapter is done, and I just need to finish off the confrontation that the story's been building towards.

However, given my current situation, I have little faith that Chapter Seven will be done and ready for release before the end of May. Couple that with recent circumstances, and I'm definitely not going to get the epilogue for the story done by then. As of right now, I might end up moving up the release date for that Vignette that I had planned for June to sometime in May.

I need more me time. That's all there is to it.

That's perfectly understandable, man. Whatever works for you, is all right by me.

Thanks. The last couple weeks have been more draining on me than they have any right to be.

Take that time for yourself!
A friend of mine has a small vineyard. One year, because of weather and stuff he couldn't control, he could only produce a few bottles of wine for the whole year. Didn't change the fact that those were the best he ever made.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: Quality over quantity. Sometimes life will get messy, but that shouldn't stop you from making the best out of it!:raritywink:

We understand, so whatever happens, just do your best!

No, it shouldn't. Still, being able to sit down and write is good for me. Staves off depression.

Appreciated, thanks.
