    Peeks head out of rock...

    Hi... It's been a little while.

    Checks...

    ... Okay, it's been a long while. Just shy of 5 years apparently.

    I'm not going to try and explain away that absence, but the main reason that I stopped - probably - is that I lost interest in the main storyline of MLP.

    So it occurs to me that I am pretty much dead on this site at the moment – this post aims to a) state why this is so, b) state why it’s probably going to continue, and c) why lists are bad for people.

    Still Not Dead Yet (a.k.a: What Have I Been Doing)

    So... as some people may have noticed, I'm in one of my infamous periods of doing sweet f.a at the moment, so that's a thing.

    100 Follower Special (AMA)

    Little bit of explanation before I go any further into this... about half a year or so ago, when I was on about 93 watchers, I said to myself... Cynical, you pessimistic and sarcastic person, why not make a special post for reaching the big one-double-oh? To which I promptly shot my conscience in the face for using such a long-winded way to say 100.

-'Till Death Did You Part

'Till Death Did You Part

It's the event of the decade, the arranged marriage of Twilight of the Royal house Sparkle to the daughter of the baron and baroness, Applejack.
Starting Word Count: 0
New Word Count: 83
Change: 83
Percentage Change: 100%

Some Other Statistics

Total Words Written: 134838
Percentage Change: 1.78%
Total New Words Written: 2360
Daily Average: 337
Percentage Change: -72.82%

These stats are according to my MSWord word counter, so it should be more accurate.

As you can probably see from the stats, this week seems to have been more of the ideas type of week. I'm particularly looking forwards to when I get to work on 'Till Death Did You Part as that's going to take a lot of influence from Tim Burton's Corpse Bride. Add to that that I've already got the bare-bones of the plot sorted, it should progress quite nicely too.

In other news... I don't think I'm going to have my TwiDash competition fic done in time. A mixture of writers block and an inflexible prompt has sorta killed that for me... (also I'm having too much fun writing Ends Meet <.< >.>)
