So, the story has officially started, and it is being based in an alternate universe of the Bumbleverse. I decided that was the best way to go. A few basic things that happened in the official Bumbleverse didn't happen here. So, what does this mean? Well, folks I would like to get feed back from some outside sources, and thus I am willing to share the Google Docs (For comments and viewing) to a few individuals. If you would be willing to read it, and comment on it, along with letting me

Welcome all. First, I've really, really, and I mean really got to get better at updating my blogs. So, I'm sorry for disappearing for a while. I'm sure that everyone knows that life loves to throw curve balls. What does this mean exactly? Well Curve balls like the pandemic, or just life in general. For someone like me that means having sparatic writing at best. Although I will admit that I managed to crank out two full novels in about... four months, so maybe not so sparatic writing...

Well, since I've started rewriting a bit, at least a little before the move, I've taken time to notice that more than a few people have asked about using Bumble Hooves. First, wow, I'm surprised that anyone has even asked. Especially after what he was inspired by, but that said here's the short list to using my version of Bumble.

1) Please Pm and ask before hand.

2) If you want the story to be considered canon to the 'Bumble' verse please include his herd. if not, then go nuts!

Yes, you're not mistaken, there is in fact a reading of Bumbling through my Education! Currently it's just the first chapter, but here's hoping to see more. Also, here's hoping that if sound effects get added... Well, we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Yes, you read this correctly. I've been playing with the idea for a while. One of the jobs I had back in college was working with Technical Services in the Library, which meant learning how to bind books, and of course make hard covers for books when needed. If there's enough people interested in getting an actual physical cover of the book, well then I wouldn't mind putting one foot in front of the other and getting to it. But that's the case, I don't want to make a ton of these if no

Yeah, when we said the last chapter was going to be big, we meant it. So, currently I'm a little over five thousand words in on the last chapter of Bumbling through my Education. The chapter is setting things up for the - wait for it - sequel that is coming out. With that said, I should have the chapter done this week, I'm hoping by Friday, but I will push for Thursday. Right now I'm focusing on this chapter, so currently Crystal Apple and Celestia the Broodmare are on hold, but not for

Hello my friends! So, I'm sure that many of you have discovered that the spinoffs/spin offs/Spin-Offs of Bumbling through my Education has already begun. In truth, they were meant to start well before now, but The timing was perfect for the Cake's story yesterday. With it being Valentine's Day/Hearts and Hooves Day. So naturally I had to do something sweet for that day, and besides, it was a story dedicated to my own personal Mrs. Cake, my darling wife.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to apologise about the lack of updating on Bumbling through my Education today. I had every intention of updating, but then my Dad's headstone came in. It's funny, sometimes things just aren't real until you get that last bit of closure. For me that closure came in the shape of the headstone.

First, I want to give a huge shout out to Sketchy Changeling who is an amazing artist. Sketchy is currently working on a comic for Bumbling through my Education, and what I've seen so far is simply amazing. I'm hopeful that the completed work is going to be simply fantastic.

Thanks again Sketchy.

Okay, so I haven't done one of these in an exceptionally long time. Basically ask a question to any of the characters in Bumbling through my Education and they will answer you.

"Ummm, is there going to a lot of Ponies here?"

Yeah, I mean it's a question and answer, so I'm going to assume that there's going to be a few Bumble.

"Do... Is this really necessary? I don't really like crowds, at all."

Wow, colored me surprised! So I never really figured that I'd get featured for anything, but apparently Bumbling through my Education made the cut! So, thanks! Thanks to everybody that has liked this story, and thanks too all of you that have favored it. All of you Rock so hard.

I've been considering creating a side story for Bumbling through my Education, and that side story would be the Bonus Scenes. I figured that before I went off and did anything I'd ask all of you about it.

So, keep the Bonus scenes in the main story, or separate them into a side story?

So here's some news. Currently I'm cranking out Bumbling through my Education, and I'm working on a commission piece for an individual. On both sides things are going well. The newest chapter of Bumbling through my Education has about two thousand words so far, so expect to see a new chapter up tomorrow, Sunday the latest.

Also, expect to see a Q&A up tomorrow for Bumble and crew.

Later days,

RJP
