    Issues Going On, No Promises Made

    Long time since I've posted here, but I've been kept very busy the last four days or so.

    TL;DR-On work furlough for at least three weeks, I did get one full paycheck coming next week. Past that, I'm burning my remaining PTO for my company's health care, which will last about five months-call it August/September before I have to pay the company for my healthcare every two weeks.

    So, Nearing The End Of 2018...

    And, between work, commute, the novel that I'm writing, and everything else, I'm lucky I can get things in like sleep or anything that could be considered "fun".

    2018 was kind of a kick-in-the-nuts sort of year for me. It was not good.

    But, there's some light at the end of the tunnel and I might actually think it's not an oncoming train.

    I'm Writing Again...

    ...just not Pony stuff right now.

    Since about...call it the early part of December, I've been writing a completely original story. For those that are curious, it's very much a Magical Girl story...if it was written by David Drake.

The Range Of An Excuse... · 1:20am Apr 6th, 2015

The range of an excuse is zero meters.

The Celestia chapter of "The Dawn of Dusk Shine" has taken me much longer to write than I care to think about.

It's been restarted at least twice, revised at least three times, and I'm stuck at this one spot that might mean restart #3.

Add to that personal problems in my life. I might be moving for a new job, if the job will pay enough. If not, I'm still looking for new employment from where I am currently now.

I'm still working on it, and it WILL get done. I even know how it ends, finally. And, even happily. It's getting there that is the issue.

I hope everything works out. Good luck. I do hope that you get a good paying job where you want.

The thing I have been hearing from everyone who creates, be it art, writing, whatever, is that: "Even if it isn't perfect, release it. You will never get to the point where it is perfect. You will learn from the experience."

Then don't rush, take your time.
I know we're going though.
Good luck, best wishes.

so im guessing there wont be a sequel to it?

2957563 There will be, luck and hope permitting.

The only issue is where the sequel starts and how much trouble I can get Sunset Shimmer and the difference between human and pony mating behaviors involved in...

Take your time man. You can't rush perfection.

Good good! This is good news. Gives me a chance to get caught up! But don't take too long now, I read fast. :scootangel:

Please keep writing, I'll keep reading!
