    Update for June 2019

    I've been mentoring a grad student on "de-scoping". It's time for me to do that here too:

    Update for June 2018

    The good news is, I have a permanent job now (and it's one that I love). The less-good news is that life prior to this was not conducive to hobbies.

    My FIM-related queue is:
    - Finish marking up iisaw's fic and send the last section to him.
    - Do a detailed analysis of Bad Horse's code and dataset and send the conclusions to him.
    - Get my incomplete short-ponyfics in order.

    Update for August 2015

    I'm still alive, and still enjoying reading about ponies; that's the good news.

    The less-good news is that I haven't made significant progress on writing and I don't expect to soon. This is primarily due to a combination of job-search fatigue and burnout.

    (This has also been affecting my pre-reading time; apologies to iisaw for the delay.)

    Update for February 2015

    Writing-related:
    - Organized my notes for "LAN Party of the Night" into a coherent outline. This still needs work before anything gets written.
    - Continued making notes for "Time Loop Logic". I have a backlog of entries to add to that, and procrastination continues.

    Update for November 2014

    Writing-related:
    - Finished pre-reading Luna Cypher. Iisaw has indicated that he won't be making a second editing pass, so this task is now done. And the story was nifty :twilightsmile:.

Update for July 2014 · 5:22am Jul 23rd, 2014

Writing-related:
- Continued prereading chapters of Luna Cypher for iisaw. First pass pre-reading has been done out to Chapter 15. There will be a second pass, but that'll most likely be after the story is finished (a polishing pass).

Distractions for the last couple of months:
- Work. I've been making a concerted push to get data collection and analysis done for a paper, and it's been leaving me drained enough to interfere with other tasks. Still fascinating work.

To-do list:
- Still mostly the same as December's.
- Prospective MLP Time Loops submissions added to the writing queue.
