I'm a writer of fluff, kibitzer, and especially interested in canon AU: Equestria Girls, the comics, etc. They are fun to play with.

    Follow-up on that stalker thing

    He seems to have gone quiet for now. I'm assuming the admins managed to smack down all of those alts. I haven't seen any new material on Tumblr or DeviantArt, either.

    Speaking of DeviantArt, here's the reply I got from them:

    Thanks for getting in touch!

    A member of the DeviantArt staff has reviewed this situation, and we have taken appropriate steps to resolve the problem.

    Just so you know...

    There's a person on here who has been creating alts and harassing me. I keep getting posts like "why have you stopped talking to me? Tell me what I did. I need closure." I'm also getting PMs along the order of "yo, why are you ignoring X? I thought you were friends."

    I lurk

    I know some people have asked why I won’t say anything, etc., but the truth is that I lurk. I sign in to see something, usually to re-read Rage Reviews. There are some things I can’t see unless I’m a bonafide member over a certain age. And then I just don’t ever log out, but I’m not “here” and ignoring anyone on purpose.

    Some people make themselves very, very unhappy

    Haven't been around much, but then, you knew that. Busyness, health issues, and frankly a whole lot of depression. Even ponies weren't interesting me very much anymore. I had a ticket to go to EQLA and a party that same weekend, and I did not go to either.

    Hey guys guys guys

    So, hi, you haven't probably seen much from me, and that is primarily because I have been sucked in again by my primary fandom, Harry Potter. Which isn't surprising, considering that I help run a convention and teach a course on it and am the school's club's faculty advisor and have given talks on it for, oh, over a decade.

    So for me, for the last few months, it has been mostly about:

--thanks to blacksilverflames. Thanks to everyone, in fact.

I wish I could guarantee a timely finish on Command Performance. In fact, I'm already behind, and I don't know if I can catch up. I'm not feeling all that great, and I'm also very sad. Usually the way I deal with being sad is by being funny. Funny is great, and Roger Rabbit's right when he says that sometimes it's the only weapon we have.

Then there eventually comes a day when the zing goes out of the bauble. Either I've tried to cheer up too many people or put it off for too long or a bunch of stuff happens too fast and somehow, nothing's really very funny anymore. I don't think I can manage a broad comedy chapter like the next one right now.

I don't know how soon I can be funny. It might not be very long, but I'd hoped to finish by January 6th and it just might not happen. I might try an essay or a review, or get back to my real-life work, which has gone begging for attention.

Sorry, folks. I'm sure the laugh engine will be running again soon enough.

We've all had days like that. Do whatever you need to cheer up, even if that just means waiting. Also, congrats on the three hectofollowers.

Sorry about those blues getting to you. I hope it passes soon.

By the way, congrats on 300 followers! :pinkiesmile:

You don't have to be funny all the time. I've seen you do other effects in your stories. You're a really good writer. And you don't need to write fanfic all the time -- much as I love your work.

I am sorry about that we all have days like that just take all the time you need we hope you feel better soon. :fluttershysad:

It's no problem, everyone has off-days. Congrats on the 300 followers! :pinkiehappy:

¡Yeah! ¡300 followers!

2687501 299 now, but eh. It usually only takes a day or two to recover from that, and besides, if I'm failing to amuse or someone is somehow disappointed in or dislikes something I've said, they've got every right to un-follow, and I am cool with it.

2685871 Thanks, guys, but I don't think cute ponies are going to shift this one.
2685720 Thanks. Yeah, we'll see.
