So I do still come here with some regularity, and I do read all my messages and notices, if only to remind myself of a time I had something I really focused on and worked on, and the most common theme is "Is The Most Unlikely Places going to be finished?" The answer, as one might imagine, is complicated.

...don't get used to it. I can't make promises.

So someone suggested to me that I should post a farewell note, regardless of the actual eventual result of the note in question. I think that makes sense, but I'm going to expand the eventual result--or so I hope--to some meaningful degree. Note I have been drinking, so the typos are a result of that. The sentiment is not.

...when you finally make a breakthrough on a scene you've been fighting for the past month. It's better than watching a new Rarity episode with a Tom Collins in your hand.

Okay, not quite that good, but close.

So I'd like to think everyone who is a fan of "The Most Unlikely Places" is also one of my followers, but considering TMUP has twice as many likes as I do, I recognize that's probably not the case. As a result, a lot of you may not have noticed that TMUP has a new spinoff in production:

It's almost too bad I liked the 100th episode as much as I did. If I'd hated the canon they introduced (and/or implied), I could brush it off and go about my business. I didn't, though. I loved it. Granted, the only canon that really interferes with anything I do was Vinyltavia related, so I guess I'm fortunate in that respect. That said, there was one thing I saw that I really liked that MASSIVELY interferes with everything I've done so far. I'm going to discuss it here because it

I try to be pretty accommodating to people's opinions, especially in the comments section of my stories. I try not to quash debate, even when it gets a touch heated, and I only step in when I think there's a chance for the discussion to take a vitriolic turn. But there is one thing I have asked people not to do, and I made it clear in two separate places--my blog and in response to some comments to the effect--and I've been ignored.

So I'm going to make it even more clear.

So I've been surfing the MLP subreddit and came across a pic by an artist whose canon I adore, specifically as it relates to Rarity, Spike, and their eventual life together. Siansaar has created a fascinating hybrid creature--the dracony--that I rather like as a concept, so I'm contemplating making it canon for the NLL universe. Normally I don't poll for opinions (see: Glitter Shell), but in this case, it seems a tad unfair to just shuffle a

Just a quick update so people know what's going on.

So there have been several people now who have taken umbrage with my use of the word "y'all" in a singular sense. I'm going to address it now and put the issue to rest, because I'm tired of seeing it rehashed in the comments section every time I post a chapter.

The argument goes that "y'all" is a contraction of "you" and "all". This is true.
