I feel like a smug boss now. Excuse me while I shower myself in the light of my ego for a bit.

Hello friends! In case you miss the Author's Notes somewhere, here's something you need to know:
Readers of Wandering, make sure to read Entry 1 of Mercurial Archives, Archive 1, before proceeding beyond chapter 7 of Wandering (when 8 comes out).
Hello everybody! I still don't know if anyone at all reads these little blurbs, but I felt a need to post something here about this. So there we go.
Currently, ReEN, Valere (TGINBTMC is a bad acronym) and The Late Clock are more or less on hiatus. Mostly ReEN.
Submitted Wandering to EQD just after I published chapter 6. This was my response:
Thank you for submitting your story to Equestria Daily. Unfortunately, I can't recommend posting it.
This is not the first time I've reflected on this, but it's even harder for me to ignore right at this moment. I'm sitting in my parents' apartment on my laptop, writing on Entry 5 of Wandering; and simultaneously, a chapter of a bit of swedish prose poetry I call the Book of Winter (which is exactly what it sounds like).
So yeah. Finals are mostly out of the way for me, and I can get my ass back where it belongs: the chair in front of my desktop. For a while.
I can't stop writing on Wandering. I just can't.
So despite my lab report still being an unfinished piece of mostly nothing yet, here's chapter 3. This, I think, marks the end of the "Introduction" - we'll probably see more plot advancement starting with the next one.
Yeah. Have one on me, boys.

Okay, just to alert you all: I've got a maths exam on Monday, which I desperately need to study for. After that I have a lab paper due wednesday, but that's not quite as pressing. Still, don't expect any updates within a week or so.
Stay cool,

GUYS WHAT ARE YOU DOING
FAVE/READER RATIO IS LIKE OVER 33%
I'LL MISS ANOTHER NIGHT'S SLEEP NOW JUST BECAUSE I FEEL OBLIGATED TO KEEP WRITING
DAMNIT
Lol. Just kidding. Well, I'm actually really surprised about the positive reception for this thing - I was NOT expecting that. But hey, who am I to curse my luck when it comes around?
I dunno how far I'll get tonight, but if you're lucky the next chapter might be up tomorrow/on thursday.
Keep being awesome,

Yes, really. I wrote a self-insert story. Deal with it (also read it, because I think it's really nice). Besides, it's like mandatory* for any decent HiE writer to do so! I had* to, eventually.
What it also is, however, is a spinoff of my personal log book from my ACTUAL week-long hike in Sarek this summer. Sooo...realism?
Maybe, maybe.
