Star Swirl would like to ask you some questions.

Please do not look directly into the tea cup; Star Swirl may not be held responsible for any harm that results from the tea spirits gaining entry into your brain.

I've just uploaded a new chapter of The Education of Clover the Clever. Expect updates for The Crown of Night over the next couple of days. It's been a while in coming, but I like it.

In other news, I just learned today that, in addition to Dr. Who and of course season 4, another thing that will be released in November is an expansion to XCOM: Enemy Unknown, one of my favorite games this past year. It rather seems like the universe is setting me up for a huge reward for finishing my master's thesis (which is due in mid-November) on time... or else setting me up for massive disappointment by making all these things suck if I do not finish on time.
What's that? Are you suggesting the universe does not revolve around me? How dare you, sir?! PISTOLS AT DAWN!

But, cheers. I hope you enjoy the new chapters.
