    The Economics of a Wasteland

    Well.

    This is a long overdue post, isn't it? Looking back, I honestly can't believe it's been five years since the last chapter released, and, to get to the point straight away, WEcon is not coming back.

    Wherein I admit I'm Terrible at Blogging Regularly

    I'm terrible at blogging regularly.

    Really, I am. I know this, and every time I break silence to say "this time will be different," a small part of me knows I can't keep that up. And on top of that I know that back in October I promised y'all Chapter 17 would be out in November. Clearly, that never happened. So let me clear the air on one thing, absolutely and definitively:

    Blogpost 6/26/2017 - Where the heck is Chapter 16?

    A perfectly justified question and a complicated answer. As a short answer, Chapter 16 has been delayed by a huge project that Pipistrelle had to take on for work. I've actually seen how much of her time it's been demanding of her, and seen her work through most weekends for the past several months. Perhaps I could have tried to release Chapter 16 in a state without her going through the

    Blogpost 4/10/17 - Breaking the Silence

    Alright, remember when I said that I have a bad habit of keeping quiet if I have nothing to report? Yeah, that kinda happened for a bit there. I got crazy busy IRL (and also maybe a bit too absorbed into NieR Automata), but I return with good news! Chapter 16's draft is complete, and editing has begun!

    Blogpost 2/13/17 - 3 Years of WEcon

    Holy shit, 3 years already. It's kind of amazing to me that I've managed to stick with this for as long as I have, and I have y'all to thank for it. Writing this story and seeing people actually enjoy it enough to talk about it in my comments section has been such an emotional rollercoaster, and I know it sounds cliche, but I really, truly cannot thank you guys enough for the joy you've given

WEcon Update, Sweet Treat, Sweet Art · 10:44pm May 26th, 2014

Bad news first, Chapter 4 of Wasteland Economics is gonna be a while yet, though I know it's been five weeks since 3 went up. Part of the problem is that Chapter 4 ended up being 12,000+ words, and so writing the first draft took longer than I expected. I know it's not as impressive a wordcount as some other FoE fics out there regularly put out, but it is almost half the length of WEcon to date. Neither I nor my editors were prepared for it to get that long. It's in editing now, and hopefully y'all will get to read it soon (tm). But in the interest of full disclosure, probably going to be another couple of weeks. Sorry!

But, I'm at least not making this post empty-handed! First off, I wrote a little one-shot for the FOEWriters subreddit, then cleaned it up a bit, and hopefully you enjoy Fallout Equestria: Sweet Treat. Fair warning, it's a bit rougher around the edges since I never sent this one off to Mondo or Pipistrelle for editing, so you can hold me accountable for all of the horrible mistakes in it.

Secondly, I commissioned a piece from the fantastically talented InLucidReverie. He provided valuable help with the color scheme for one character in particular, and I asked if he would accept a commission to draw her - my favorite raider boss, Malice! I love how it came out.
