Lack Thereof · 5:36am Mar 26th, 2014
So as it's very obvious, I haven't written or updated anything in quite awhile. Well that's not completely true. I actually have been writing, but it's so little at a time that it really doesn't make a difference. I've also been just writing other things than ponies now.
So here's an update with myself for anyone that gives a a shit.
If you remember, I made a post stating that I was done selling and doing weed. Well for the most part or some part, this has held true thus far. I have completely quit on selling weed but still smoke here and there (not nearly as much as I used to) and in my time being silent for the most part, I have been contending with my own problems.
One of them was, holy shit wait for it, getting a job.
Yes, one does not simply quit doing something that was bringing in money and expect the money to keep rolling in. It's been awhile since I actually worked a real job making honest money and I kinda hate it, especially since I made much more cash just getting people stoned than working a calling job for my university. Regardless though, I can't say that it's not a good feeling having consistent money.
Also, Dj'ing has become more of a stress than joy now since I am doing a lot of recordings for an album that I will be releasing on Itunes in the future. So that has also been taking part of my life with the additions of school and family.
Lastly, I've also been dealing with my health which is now in question. For the past couple months the coughing up blood shit, along with fevers and wheezing fits, has came back and I have gotten xrays on the matter just a couple weeks ago. I am due on the 31st to come back and get my lungs looked at again because something has been found there as I have learned since Sunday by a nice call from my wonderful man doctor. Without sugarcoating it, I was told that it could be a sign of cancer or a benign tumor.
Hopefully it's the latter but I will see.
Moving on.
Now to address some specific people.
Ian
I know its been awhile since I spoke to you and I apologize. I haven't had time for xbox really anymore (let alone need to renew my sub), but I still have you in my thoughts man and hope shit is going well for you. Just want to let you know that I'm still planning that trip to come fuck with you and we'll have a chill time if everything goes as I want it. Just want to let you know I haven't forgotten about you. Once I get my sub back up and open more time we can fuck with some tanks, been awhile since that.

It's been a long while since I spoke with you, but I do watch the stuff you do and your posts and what not. I'm sorry that I haven't done anything with the story you let me take over but hopefully that will change soon. Hope you're doing well for yourself man.
BikerDash
I see you still doing some good stuff and been secretly stalking you on your page, you gave me some good laughs. And those bad days that you have, just keep heading on. Don't let the bad days get to you. You're awesome man.
CanterlotGuardian
We need to work on that collab man. I been looking at it and I got some ideas to throw at you.
ChaoticNote
I saw the pic of your OC and Luna.
Pray.
There's many people that I could list here, but I know I've been silent , so I guess I'm just letting you know that I'm still here and see what's going on, just time gets away from me.
Now to get to what you all care about: stories and wtf am I doing with them cuz we demand updates hurrr.
M0re Than Gam3rs is not dead. I have currently 3000+ words written on the next chapter but still not even near halfway to be done on it. I have found myself stuck at a certain part and it's really a matter of how I attack this roadblock. Until then, it will continue being a work in progress.
The Night's Veil is in dire need of an update, I know this. I actually have to go back and reread and analyze what route I was taking with it so I know where to go. It's been a damn good while since I really screwed with Luna and Twilight.
She's a Pony, He's a Human has been worked on a tiny bit but not much. Perhaps a page or two but still kinks I need to fix.
Dark Descent 2 I have gotten at least the opening done, but I have also come to a roadblock with this and it's a matter of just getting past it.
Dead Space: Expendable has a possibility of being put on hiatus because I may have a person collaborating with me and helping me improve on how to write gore scenes and stuff. This is still to be determined.
Twilight This will probably be updated before or after Gam3rs since this is the most I have been working on. An update for this is not far off.
The Royal Family
Whatever words you have for this, that's probably what describes me with that story right now. Apparently I can't have Sombra do meth so I have to re-evaluate alot of things.
So here's some new stories I been working on in the meantime though. Give a quick rundown since this blog is helly long already.
Breaking Bad: All Hail The Queen
(Featuring: Twilight Sparkle/Derpy Hooves)
Dark Descent: Laughter (Will be released at a certain point after Dark Descent 2)
(Featuring: Pinkie Pie/Princess Luna/Scootaloo
JSRF: Shape The Future
(Featuring: Vinyl Scratch/Octavia/Lyra/Derpy Hooves/Bon Bon)
Detective Hooves and The Case of the Black Widow
(Featuring: Derpy Hooves/The Doctor)
The Trotting Dead? (This is a maybe)
Sorry for this post being so long, but it's said and I have my motivation back to do what I do. So yeah, laters.

The good news-hearing from you woot! Also updates to the Twilight and Pinkie stories based around Decsent. Very cool.
The not as good- Nothing on a sequel or continuation of "One Bet". I really liked that one and was very happy as it ended initially in the first chapter. Now with the third chapter I am fully OK with having more content in either additional chapters or a sequel story. I thought that story was really good especially since it started off as a simple one shot. I actually put it as an example of an "under appreciated or relatively unknown PinkieDash" story in a thread as I think it is good enough for recognition in that way. I am not sure you think it is special but that first chapter especially is very good and after the third chapter I keep hoping to see something because I want to see those characters in your story actually succeed as a relationship since it feels like there is a misunderstanding or missed opportunity on their part.
Now for the important stuff I really hope that what they find will be benign and treatable. I don't know you outside of this site (and of course I don't you really even here but I know of you and appreciate your work) but even so I will keep you in my thoughts and even prayers if that is something that you are ok with (some people are not and some people are ok with it and since I don't normally do this I would like to make sure it is ok first).
I am happy to hear that even though it is hard that you are feeling some good from doing as some would call "honest" work (though phone centers suck I can relate I worked for one at a university). I am also happy that you managed to cut down on your consumption of weed since that was a goal of yours. Stopping cold turkey is very hard especially if you are under a lot of stress like you are so I think you are doing very well in that regard.
I am sorry that the best I can offer you are words but I do mean them and hope things improve. Also I am sorry if this was kind of sappy.
It is HIGHLY motivating to hear from you again, and to know you have NOT given up on your fics!
And BOOOOO to whatever it is that is assailing your lungs! I pray that it turns out to be something much less serious, such as an infection that can be more easily corrected!

Same here man. Hopefully it all works out so just being positive.
1956409
I wont have any problem with what you do and I appreciate the kind words. I'm sorry I don't have any plans on the sequel for One Bet. This isn't to say that I won't, but it will be something I will get to, just not now. I do like PinkieDash and even Pinkie/Twilight, but I do want to play more with that ship.
Yeah the call center sucks. Making 8.17 an hour which isn't bad with 15 hours per week but only getting approx 170 compared to the 400-700 I could make selling bud in a week, but I like that it's consistent and at least money is there.
Either way, life isn't bad. Just trying to adjust is all.
You. Saw. Nothing.

But in all seriousness, I sincerely hope you don't have a tumor or cancer. That would suck. A lot.
1956476
You whore I saw what your OC did to Luna. It's unforgivable. Not even cake can fix this
1956490
Cake can't fix it, but pie can!
I'll give you pie if you don't share that picture with anyone else.
1956491
No I can't share it with anyone else. I'm keeping it so the anger is always fresh.
1956493
Your DerpyXLuna shipping is still strong, ain't it?
1956498
Always.
Good to see you up and about. Hope ya get better man.
1956499
Well I like it too, but this is my fantasy. Don't judge me for having unachievable dreams, whose pains can be dulled by having such pictures.
1956538
I'm not judging at all. Not even close. I'm the last one who can.

1956543
What are you implying?
1956551
Nothing really.
Yeah, dude, we definitely need to talk more often. I do still get on Skype every day if you wanna chat it up. And I understand why you haven't done much story-wise lately. I've been going through a huge rut myself lately. That fic I just posted was easily a fluke and I'm not gonna be able to write something again for a while.
Also, I just wanna wish you the best with your health concerns. I'd hate to see a good friend of mine get something like cancer. So really, best of luck with that and I hope everything turns out okay man.

okaaaay
Can't wait to see more Dark Decent. One of my favorite fics.

Pinkie/Twilight is actually my second favorite ship after PinkieDash and is actually the reason I started reading Descent.
I remember the call center it was a strange combination of being like a Telemarketer but at the same time knowing that many of the programs you are raising money for could really use it with the continually decreasing state funding at most universities. Hopefully your place gives out nice perks like free dinners like min did
. To be honest though I enjoyed my campus security job a lot more. More fun, interesting, and less begging. Also paid more which was a plus. Good luck with that I had to work my way through college so i have been there.
Hey man just noticed this now and I gotta say its good to see you back. Regarding the problems that with your health I hope its nothing too serious and if it is I hope they patch you up good as new. I would've commented sooner but I've had to deal with some consequences for a mistake as of late and its been weighing me down but regardless I wish you the best because the one time I gamed with you and seven I thought you were pretty rad and we need more people like that.
Sincerely,
North
I hope it's the latter too. If you die on me, I will kill myself, go beat the shit out of satan, god, and the reaper. Drag your ass back up and resurrect you to write more. If it's lung cancer, I have a friend who beat it. You can too.
Good job on stopping the weed business as well. I hope to see you A) Live and B) Write moar!
