Re-write! · 4:01am Nov 11th, 2014

Almost finished with a new chapter of The Literary Appeal... you know, after a year. It's been...

Wow.

I've been through a lot these past twelve months. I was in an unhappy situation, reeling from the loss of my closest grandparent, stagnating my life one day at a time, going through the motions and generally just being... discontented with life. Pony was the only good thing at the time, on reflection. Friendships were strained and disappearing, and I was struggling largely with my competitive dreams.

Since then, I've... moved away from all of that. I have a lot to be thankful for, and while I have garnered a whole host of new and even tragically poor problems, it has lended itself to a life of far more agency. I'm almost always living in the day and planning for the future, and writing took a backseat to it all. But as things are settling down and I have a better idea of where I'll be in six months... suddenly I am feeling the return to writing, and with that, a return to my favorite fic I've ever written.

And I'm now completely rewriting the ending act. What was once supposed to take place over a single night at the party, we're spanning a bit longer. One thing I noticed before is that it was simply too heavy with the drama and did not lead itself to many other jokes than 'TWILIGHT IS PERVERTED.' Yes, I think after this long together, we've... noticed. So we're having a bit of a re-write, and as such, I'm enjoying the freedom that's allowed me. Before it was a crunch to get all my loose ends together in a single party, and now I can let them tie up much more naturally.

Anyway, back to writing. Thanks for reading.
