    Back on the horse! (That just sounds wierd in this fandom)

    So! I have started writing again. This next chapter is going to be LONG. I'm almost at 6k words and I don't think I've even hit the half way point. Brilliant Point and Demon Eyes Laharl are keeping me to task on writing and I will keep everyone updated as to the status of it. Despite the long pause between updates I'd like to think that I put a lot of effort into the holes and gaps in my story

    Long time no see!

    Been a while...sorry about that. I have excuses! Many Excuses!

    Unfortunately what put this off the most was the passing of my last grandparent. That was tough and the rest of the extended family certainly didn't help things at all.

    My Nefarious Plan

    So I'm going to have to head out of the country here for about a week. I'll have limited internet access and a lot of free time. "Uncle Shira, Uncle Shira," you ask, "What does this mean!?"

    Hmmm, that was unexpected.

    Outline for the next chapter of Hearts, Hooves & Hands is done! Slight catch, the outline, no dialogue, just an outline is almost 5k words. What was supposed to be the next chapter may have to be broken up into a couple of chapters. I'm about to go out of country for a week so if I don't manage to get good access and post a chapter then given my outline -> actual story conversion ratio then when

    Status: Currently under the weather

    Since everyone's asking I can just point you all here now. Had a stomach bug for the last couple of days. Finally finished my project before the deadline at work so I can take a break for a while. Sorry for the delay on all the projects, now I can get to it.

Long time no see! · 7:46am Jun 12th, 2013

Been a while...sorry about that. I have excuses! Many Excuses!

Unfortunately what put this off the most was the passing of my last grandparent. That was tough and the rest of the extended family certainly didn't help things at all.

Since that all got worked out I've been preparing for a move and starting a new business! Massive change is just around the corner for me. Hopefully everything will go well.

So I made the corrections to ch 2, and ch 3 is being begun in earnest. This is the flashback chapter and it may be big enough that I'll want to break it into two. There's...a lot of material so I hope it keeps everyone interested. After I get ch 3 finished and one pass by my editors if people are interested I may throw a link out for those interested in reading the per-release version. You know just in case something ELSE happens to me and this is delayed further. Also people pestering me seems to help a lot with getting stuff done.

Anyway thank you for your patience and here we go!

Hell, its about damn time.

Glad to see things have calmed down at least a little bit for now, and I hope your business does well! I look forward to the new chapters when they come out!

I was wondering if something had happened to you. Sorry for not really "pestering" you, at work they though it would be fun to throw me some stuff to solve:

But it's good to hear everything is slowly getting back on track. :twilightsmile:

You know, when there is a barrier between you and your hobbies, it's life. We got to take care of it before you can do what you want.

Anyway, We are glad you are back.
Have a Twiley. :twilightsmile:

I know rite?

Thanks for the well wishes Broderick. It's a gamble but that's what keeps life exciting! I'm putting my nights much more towards finishing the next two chapters (though it may be just one big one if I don't split it up).

Hahah that .gif is so correct. Me = dude, life = the trashcan. My time in Japan wasn't that crazy, it's only since I got back that it's been this nuts :rainbowlaugh:. I'll hit you up when I have some actual story this time around. Also thanks for the well wishes earlier :heart:

1139768

Glad to be back. Twilight avatar buddies :heart:. I'm trying to put a lot of effort into this part of the story, really showing off the characters and develop them as well as doing more world building. If I screw it up, just make sure to hold my feet to the fire.

1140144 I know, right? That gif is so apt for so many situations. Still need to figure out from which anime that is, it looks fun.

1140168

Definitely a more recent one. Not sure though, the uniforms look a lot like something from Ouran, but it's decidedly not. Modern moe stuff? I got nothing.

1140179 Well a lot of help you are. :ajbemused::rainbowwild:

I threw it at my social network and they identified the anime for me, it's Durarara!!:

I know it's been awhile since you posted the entry, but I just wanted to offer my condolences for losing your last grandparent. I hope you've been coping well.

Still thanks for the sentiment. It had been a long time coming and Gramps made it to 93! Should I be so lucky to make it that long. Independent till the end, he was one lucky bastard XD.

I'm fine now, Gramps had a good run and while it was tough at the time, he was ready.

Good chunk of the way through the newest chapter if you follow me for my stories instead of my asshole rants.
