    Be still, sad heart! and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining.

    You probably know how this sort of thing goes. There you are, mowing your grass on a day that can't decide whether to shine or drizzle on you, a few years and counting into your non-writing streak. Whatever thoughts you're having are at the expense of your lawnmower picking a fight with every passing tuffet and losing.

    On Brains

    A nice breezy dialogue to ease in with:

    CARABAS’ COMMON SENSE: So, a hypothetical conservation for you.
    CARABAS: Two lines in and we’ve already got fictional discourse nested in the initial fictional discourse. Gosh, I must just love to live dangerously.

An overdue use of this space · 1:58am Dec 24th, 2013

Nine months before touching the blog feature - or using much of this space at all, really - isn't too bad, right? Right?

Anyhow, an introduction. I'm a fanfiction writer from Scotland (I also go by the handle Marquis Carabas on FanFiction.net, under which I first started writing things for other fandoms) who first got into this whole pony business back in the summer of 2011, and subsequently tried my hand at a piece of pony fanfiction, The Devil's Details, the year after. Subsequent to the first three chapters of that, writer's block mugged me and left me unconscious in an alleyway for over a year. Registering an account here in March of this year was intended to resolve that, and I can only refer you to the first line here for how that went.

In any case, things are finally looking up in terms of progress on the story (which probably benefited from the aeons spent in frustrated contemplation and refinement), and I hope to be able to keep up a regular update pace on The Devil's Details and any other stories which may occur in the future. I welcome any and all constructive criticism anyone may offer, and I hope to entertain and improve in the doing thereof throughout.
