So I just got home from work a few minutes ago, and the first thing I learned upon walking in the door was...that our Boston Terrier, Oberst, had passed away while I was at work.

Hey everyone. It's been about two weeks since I said anything (or posted new chapters, for that matter). My plan, of course, is to keep writing for the foreseeable future, but it'll be mostly when the muse strikes me. A recent emotional upheaval of my own making has sidelined me, and it's going to take some time before I recover fully from that (if at all). I haven't not been writing; I've written some words to explore various ideas knocking about upstairs, but none of them have been words for

GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE!

First, you heard that in Professor Farnsworth's voice. Secondly, writing is seriously happening now because I finally got my...ALPHASMART NEO! WOOOOO!

Here is a picture of what said device looks like (picture not mine):

Re: title. I am not dead horse. I am currently writing Chapter Six of The True Shape as we speak, a little bit at a time, chipping away at the marble to find the sculpture within. And when I do finish that, I'll be working on the next chapter of One For The Archives. I don't have and won't have a set schedule, as that kind of time pressure is too much and will only make my writing suffer. I'll do my best not to go too long between chapters, but depending on how inspiration and focus come, the

Y'all probably already saw it, but I posted the sex scene that was not shown in Chapter Five of 'One For The Archives'. The clop is in the story tagged to this blog.

Oh, and I finally started writing Chapter Eight of 'One For The Archives'. Finally. Got some words written, at least. Will do more tomorrow after work. Love you all. Snug your lovebugs. Kiss all changelings.

I wish I could say that I'm not biased, but that would be a lie. WishyWish is a good friend and an inspiration, and it is largely due to her influence that I am doing my own fic writing today. So for those of you who enjoy my writing, please thank her for that.

Wish has been doing this writing thing a lot longer than I, however, and her prose is just so much lovelier, so enticing. It just draws one in.

Hey y'all, Arta checking in. Here's the skinny.

Just taking a few days for myself, taking a well-needed writing break. I've been doing a fair bit of writing the past few weeks, so yeah, I just needed some me-time to recoup and recharge the writing batteries.

Heyyyyyy all. Arta here. Just wanted to tell you about this little one-shot I wrote this evening: Cleansing The Chakras. It's a Rarity x Tree Hugger fic.

Crack ships. Any ship. SHIP ALL THE THINGS!

Also, a little update about the other stories:

Chapter 5 of 'The True Shape' is well along in the writing.

So, yeah, I've definitely been doing my part to contribute to the recent flood of changeling fics. I'm guessing that a lot of it has to do with 'The Times They Are A Changeling' (which I still need to watch, shame on me). You won't find me complaining, that's for sure. For the little screen time they get, changelings sure do get a lot of attention when it comes to stories and art. Part of it is that we know so little about them, and our innate desire to know more about them, to construct a

Did a little more work on Chapter Three of 'A is for Applejack'. It's getting there. Murf. Flarp.

Finished Chapter Four of 'The True Shape' and as usual it turned into mushykisskiss. Chrysalis isn't the incorrigible one, I am.

'One For The Archives'...nothing yet on Chapter Eight. I'm rather enraptured with writing 'The True Shape' right now. I'll get back to this later.

OKAY BYE GONNA GO LOVE SOME LOVEBUGS IN MY DREAMS
SLEEP NIGHT
GOOD TIGHT
