So, it's been a heck of a long time since I was last here on Fimfiction. I became rather preoccupied with a lot of things over the past couple of years, and I still have stuff going on. There's the new puppy (who is quite a handful just by herself), working on my novel, my continuing involvement in audio series production (with a new series coming out later this year, which I have a much more prominent hand in than the Who stuff), as well as other responsibilities, plus (and I'm ashamed

As some of my readers may have picked up on in my earliest author's notes, I started writing The Country of Roses for reactionary purposes. I wanted to see if I could blend something I loved and something which I still approached with great trepidation. This phenomena called My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was startling, bizarre, confusing, and perhaps a little frightening. I made fun of one of the best friends I've had in recent years,

So Camp NaNoWriMo has concluded for July 2014. Although I reached my projected word count, the book itself is still far from done, so I'll be working on that. This doesn't mean I'm abandoning Country of Roses, I'm still working on that now, but I've made a lot of headway with my original project and would like to see that reach its end and possible publication.

So for those who did not see the author's note at the end of my latest chapter, I will not be working on The Country of Roses until after July as I have signed up to compete in Camp NaNoWriMo, a lighter version of National Novel Writing Month (whether I will compete in the larger programme in November is still up in the air). As of today, I will be working hard to meet my chosen word count, so I will not have time to continue the adventures of Peacemaker, Twilight and the others until

I realise it's been a while since I last updated The Country of Roses. Now, I won't bombard you with excuses about work or school or life or any of those things, and I won't plead with you to understand or forgive me, however I do feel a need to explain myself to my readers, and any of those who may fear that Roses has joined the huge mountain of unfinished stories out there on the web. Goodness knows, I've had a lot of projects wind up like that, but this won't be one of them. I

First it was the Las Pegasus Tribune, then it was Equestria Daily, and now The Country of Roses has officially obtained triple-threat status with its feature on Canterlot's Finest, which itself recently celebrated achieving 50,000 views! For those who are not aware, Canterlot's Finest is a website run by Fimfiction's own Alexstrazsa, and is specifically dedicated to
