    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!

Twenty Facts about Eight · 10:40pm Jun 26th, 2014

Stormblaze tagged me for this on DeviantArt. So here. Twenty Facts about me, of which three are false. Which three? See if you can guess...

1. In my house, my brother is referred to as ‘The Twat’, a name that was imagined up by my mother.
2. The infamous dog joke from ‘Scotchtavia’ was also imagined up by my mother.
3. I once broke my wrist in a go kart accident.
4. I was once thrown out of a Tesco supermarket for putting My Little Pony stickers on a load of meat products.
5. I was once thrown out of a Toys ‘r Us for riding a bike into a Hot Wheels display stand.
6. After drinking half a cider, I totalled my car that I’d only owned for two weeks.
7. My childhood fear is horse riding.
8. I own the slowest laptop ever made by mankind. Never buying anything from Samsung again!
9. I apparently do a half-decent Granny Smith impression.
10. Never once have my travels taken me outside of Europe.
11. Massive Whovian, I am.
12. I’ve never seen any of the original Star Wars trilogy.
13. Me and my friends once sang ‘In the Air Tonight’ at Comic Con as Mike Tyson walked past us.
14. I’ve been living in my overdraft for about a year now.
15. I like to scare people on planes by going “What was that? I heard a crack!”
16. One of my other fears is spiders. Ew.
17. I could never pronounce the word ‘moustache’ when I was young. I used to say ‘musk-a-tash’ instead.
18. My dream is to drive a classic American muscle car the full length of Route 66.
19. I don’t hate Applejack, but I’m not fond of her either.
20. I own more nerdy t-shirts than I can keep track of.

I'mma also tag Nonagon, Cyneryk, and NewKidOnTheBlock. Have fun, and good guessing!

Aw, dangit.

6, 15, and 11.

u wot m8?

Uh.

Well, I guess I gotta do this now. I wonder if I can do it without being depressing.

Edit: Did it!

Do you know what you should do? Bring some heavy duty nuts and bolts/electrical cable to a theme park, and just before it leaves or when it has left, pretend to pick them up or 'find' them, turn to the person next to you, hold them up to them and say 'do these look important to you?' They get very scared for the rest of the rollercoster. I also got kicked out for this.
