Well, I did it. I wrote 50,133 words during the month of November. Its the first time I've made a serious attempt at NaNo, and it was definitely a big of a slog. I think I'm going to collapse into a video game marathon this weekend and not worry about writing at all.
So what did I spend all of my wordcount on, and when can you see it on fimfiction?
Find out after the break!

Soooooooooooooooo March officially sucked.
I officially got nothing but a 2500 word short done which should be up and edited before the end of the month, along with a 5K follow-up fic which I am doing. But unlike with what I was planning I have no chapter of chains (or Songbird 2). The month has been one large stress fuelled shitstorm thanks to work which eventually resulted in what bordered on a nervous breakdown.

Just, what the hell, work? Life?
November has been one of the worst, most stressful months I've had in a long time. Had I not tried to write for NaNoWriMo, I'd probably have had nothing done at all.

A warm welcome to all new readers of Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night! Thank you very much for the likes and watches. The story featured for nearly a day and a half but hasn’t quite pulled itself over the century mark for total likes yet. Nevertheless, I’m pleased with the reception, and have plenty more planned. Things are just getting started with the end of part 4, and no member of Mane 6 will escape. Will Spike, Starlight and Trixie fall prey as well? Stay tuned!

Hey.
It's been a while since I've talked about Pony-Me.
Now, I know that I mentioned how I was working on a reboot.
But lately, I've been making almost zero progress on it.
Most of what I've been working on these days is my current flagship series, Splintershard.
It's refreshing to be able to write something new again.
But at the same time, I still want to give Pony-Me the chance to follow through with its intended ending, instead of what it currently has.
After chatting with Tchernobog, he seemed to think you all deserved a little more Alchemy in your lives. Ebon Quill and Little Tinker agreed. Ebon also pointed out that Alchemy was supposed to launch last week, so there's that too. With such weight pressing down upon me, I simply couldn't say no (Well, I could have, but then I'd be a jerk).
One day ahead of schedule, I have managed to write over 50,000 words in the month of November.
It's a hell of an achievement, and congratulations to any other authors out there who pulled it off. I found it a lot easier to get through this year than I did last time.
More importantly than just sheer word count, however,
The first draft of Voyagers is finally complete

November is fast approaching. And lots of stuff happens in November. Thanksgiving and election day are the noteworthy American events. (My fellow Americans, don't forget to vote!) But another event happens in November, one I'm sure some of you will recognize.
