    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!

    Not Dead

    What the title says. Sorry about the sudden unexplained hiatus, and obvious issue regarding the lack of a certain fic I was meant to upload. Something tantamount to an explanation this time next week, at the moment I'm still figuring things out and trying to find my feet.

    The Final Countdown

    So. On The Rocks. Out tomorrow.

    Hope you guys enjoy it, and I also hope it's worth the wait. The actual submitting for review may be a bit later than I'd hoped, as I need to stay a few extra hours at work tomorrow (le sigh) but it will be posted sometime tomorrow night. You guys ready for this?

Gracious in Defeat. Honest. · 3:28pm Aug 1st, 2014

So that obvious cheat lovely chap Blueshift won the UKofE writing contest for the first month! Am I annoyed? YES! A little, have a photo of me balancing plushies on my head. It cheered me up.

I'm kidding, if you haven't guessed already. I had a blast writing that story, seeing as I've never written about my OC before. The other contest entries were all great, but Blueshift won it, my theory being that he went for the 'dem feels' approach, rather than the 'make 'em laugh' approach. I really need to steal his brain and harvest his writing powers try that tactic sometime...

But seriously, congratulations to Mr Blueshift. There's still many an opportunity ahead for me to kick your flank at these contests!

I'll possibly write a few more OC-centered one-shots in the future, but for now, I have other priorities. 'On The Rocks' will be with you in less than a week, so to the fans of the Scotch-verse trilogy, I thank you very much for your patience, which will soon be rewarded. I hope the finale meets with your expectations, and I apologise wholeheartedly for the wait. I will be submitting it for review before the Fimfiction deities at 2100 hours GMT on August 7th, meaning it should be up shortly after.

Also, going back to the competition briefly, I've already begun plans for my entry for month #002, as you may see here:

Have a good one, guys!
