I've had a bit of time and I've finally written stuff again...

Quite a bit of stuff in reasonably short order...

Apologies · 2:24pm Sep 21st, 2013

Hey there.

It's been a while.

Sorry, I'm afraid it's going to be a lot longer before I can do anything else in this bloody place. I've moved into University halls where the internet is... less than great and the power supply is even less so. So that means that updates are not going to be happening for a while and I'm probably not going to be around much full stop.

An Introduction to my Stories · 1:53pm Sep 5th, 2013

Hello and welcome.

The name's Cynical if you hadn't realised by the author of the post or the page that it's on. I've been here for a while and I somehow find time to write a lot of things, so much so that I'm dedicating this blog post to setting apart my stories into the good, the bad and the downright odd.

Firstly, I currently have three prompt-related stories under my name (where a chapter is dedicated to a single prompt):

I’m back from various places and still going seemingly strong.

Figuratively that is.

Stories that have stolen steam from me over the past 7 days…

- From Afar
- Slow Down

I’d like to talk to you. I’d like to sell you my heart and soul.

Production Blog, Weeks Beginning 22nd July · 7:59am Aug 5th, 2013

Well. I had a nice week off where absolutely nothing happened. Internet withdrawal set in after about three days and I practically had to tear myself away from the wi-fi hotspots, meaning that my device ran out of battery. Anyway, we should be back to normal service now. The stories that have been worked on over the two weeks since I last updated the production blog are:

- Close Enough to Touch
- Fifteen By Five

I’m starting to think that this writing thing is more trouble than it’s worth. There has been effectively negligible progress this week, as is becoming the norm. In that regard… I may as well just give the figures here rather than after half a page of broken down stories and changed figures that are completely pointless in every regard.

I have written four hundred and forty new words over the past week. This amounts to around sixty words on average on each day.

Woo.

Welcome, once more, to another post of letters, numbers and symbols. This week we bring you a slightly different announcement… this one has a much more verbose sentence at the start of it.

That’s about it for everything new… let’s go back to the old news. Documents that have been written in this week include:

- Dynamic Fiction
- Fifteen By Five
- Subordination

Welcome, welcome, it’s that time of the week again where I talk to myself about figures which continue to have no apparent impact or scale.

Yay.

You know the drill… stories that have suffered my writing this week include:

- A Friend’s Torment
- To Rule the Sky
- Subordination

I can already hear the yawns and sighs.
