    Seasons Greetings!

    It's that time of year again!

    Thank you all for the love and support on my next big project, the curious tale of a big-eared, silver-tongued, no-nonsense little donkey. Maybe the next chapter in her journey will be less in need of her deadpan humour?

    We can only hope.

    To show her gratitude for how much her story (so far) has been appreciated, she has this little message for you!

    A Shoutout!

    This one goes out to Skijarama!

    Discord Writes a Letter went down phenomenally well, it spent nearly a week in the Featured Box, and then a further few days dancing between the Popular Box and occasionally back up into Featured. Reception to it was amazing, I'm so pleased my take on several well known fandom fanfic tropes was recieved so positively.

    Something Worth Celebrating

    So.

    As is pretty obvious, I’ve been on a bit of a writing spree lately. Ideas are forming, and being translated to words on a screen. I don’t know how long this bout of energy to churn out words will go on for, but make hay while the sun shines, right?

    A Nice Thing To Wake Up To

    Morning all!

    You know, these days I'm largely writing for myself. Which is to say, I'm no longer hugely concerned with getting as many views as possible. Story ideas occur in my head, and I write them out because I enjoy the satisfaction of them being transcribed into reality where other people may also read them. Ten people, ninety people, a thousand, honestly it's inconsequential.

    How Things Are

    Phew. It's been a minute, huh guys?

    At this point, I'm not even especially sure how many people will read this. But there's some therapeutic gains to be had by getting thoughts written down, so here we go. An update. If you're reading, here, have a cookie.

    Hooray! Nutrition!

Updates and Things and Stuff. · 7:39pm Jul 24th, 2013

Right, Chapter 29 for The Equestria Games was just put out, so I wanted to let y'all know whats happening. And stuff.

Now my allergies have begun to loosen their throat hold on me (Luna be praised), but I have had other issues. Technical issues. To put it simply, my laptop has reached the era of being senile. Slow, decrepit, and generally useless. I run disc cleanups every morning on it, which take about an hour each time, but the performance increase, however significant, is always brief. When the performance drops, it is useless. Example time! I was listening to music on iTunes, and a song called "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" came on. It's a good song, but I wasn't in the mood for it, so I hit skip. The song has a duration of 2:58. It wasn't until 2:01 that my PC registered my clicking of the skip button, and finally skipped the song. So writing is difficult, but not impossible. That specific example was during a negative performance spike, so it's not like that all the time. But it's still frustrating.

In other news, I have begun work on my next project, which is now uploaded to this here FimFiction website doohickey. It will stay where it is, but will remain unpublished until The Equestria Games is complete. This will prevent me from feeling under pressure to finish my current story, so I can get on with the other one that I've already published. What will the story be about? Not saying until I publish it. Don't like that? Go sit on a cactus.

That's all from me for now. Catch y'all later.

Man, this cactus hurts. That's the last time I listen to you.
