    I'm Basically Done

    I hate to say it, but I've moved on from fan fiction, and really the whole brony community as a whole. As with all things, you just get bored of it eventually, and I think that times has come for me. Who knows, maybe I'll have time for this stuff later in life, but I think it's time to say goodbye. I've been spending a lot of time working on music and stuff; my band is playing at the Burlington

    Because we don't already have skype for that.

    A Temporary Loss In Interest, And In Time

    So I haven't been on here very much in the last two weeks. I've been keeping busy with things, schools things, and adjusting to taking more hours at my job. I'm also not feeling particularly inspired in terms of ponyfic, but I do have some ideas I want to write before I call writing quits (which will probably happen within the next year, honestly. Though I'll probably still pop in here as long as

    Testing Testing 1, 2, 3

    So today, after spending all day studying for my upcoming AP exam, working 8 hours at my new* job, and then doing more of the same, I decided to unwind and try and catch up on season 4, which I admittedly never finished. And what do I get when unwinding? An episode about fracking tests for Baltar's sake. It's like mlp is trying to tell me to study instead of wasting time watching cartoons. Joke's

My Username · 3:18am Apr 2nd, 2015

Today I realized it was stupid to have my username be Garbo802, when I just wanted to be called "Garbo", and when the username Garbo is free (and has been for the last two and a half years I've been here). So after years of stupidity, I've decided to drop the numbers off of my username and just go by Garbo. Yeah. Also, I did an all-afternoon writing session this past saturday and got 1500 words done on the last chapter of Fool In The Rain. So that should be done by this weekend, then it'll get edited and stuff.

The only downside to name-changes is that prior links to your 802 will now turn up unfortunate 404's for those folks. Might want to go and have any pre-reading or editing credits fixed accordingly.

Happened to me when I changed to DtS last year. That collab fic I did with Kaidan still links to my old name, which brings you to a 404 >.>

Shiiiiet, it's been a whole year now, hasn't it? And nobody's gotten the bounty yet :V

I did consider that. There's only one link I really want to be changed, and that's on the spikedash collab I did that got like 700-odd upvotes. I've done a lot of proofreading work and I've gotten credit through links, but it's really not that important to me. If I really needed to, I could just use an alt to redirect people, though I probably won't since it's against the rules and all that.
