Wait this is only 1,000 words long this isn't big at all what the he— Oh, hello! Trying to get back into the swing of things, I've chosen to look at the stories of someone I've had my eye on for a while, SweetAI Belle. This particular story caught my eye because of its brevity: 1,000 words, and worked to be exactly that after extending its original 100-word form. Let's explore one of the shortest adventures we will embark upon. Ladies and gentlemen, fillies and gentlecolts,
Me, a long time ago, watching a PhantomStrider video: I can see how Sesame Street is the best live action kids' show. I wonder what odd trivia there is about Sesame Street.
goes researching
There's a Sesame Street character in Africa who's infected with HIV? That's interesting.
They had a central actor die during its run, and instead of glossing over it they talked about mourning and moving on? That's pretty cool.
The Cookie Monster's real name is Sid? That's neat.
One thing that I worry about when creating a new story is whether or not everything fits and is plausible. Two criticisms that seem to plague stories on a fundamental level, or at least criticisms that I've seen, are that a story is contrived, and a story is convoluted.

Chapter 8 is finished being written out. I will be publishing it Saturday; I’ll be using the time until then to check it for errors. So no delays this time! Woohoo, momentum!
The monumental moment of 1969 with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin just got more monumental, as the two astronauts discover an equine lifeform! Banished by her sister, will this new creature find friendhship in these two? Will Armstrong and Aldrin have discovered an alien species? Or will they have brainstormed an idea that's four decades ahead of its time?
Firstly, if anyone can spare a private 1-on-1 conversation tomorrow, I could use it.
Secondly, some story and blog updates:
1. A Rumble in the Distance will be getting a new chapter next Wednesday, the third.
2. A Little Cream for a Lotta Coco will have a new chapter and incident this Friday, the 28th.
3. A new For Those That Yearn for Adventure will be coming this Thursday, the 27th.
