    Solidarity

    A troubling modern trend is complex issues being boiled down to pithy quotes. Nuance matters. Context matters. Problems that have a simple and easy fixes don't stay problems.

    Nevertheless, sometimes the pithy quote is on point. This is one such time.

    Signal boost

    I doubt I can add much boost, but Horizon's blog post on sexual assault bears maximum repetition. For the good of the fandom, or at the very least in the name of being a decent person, check it out if you haven't already.

    State of the Author

    I continue to not be dead. :yay:
    Still job hunting, though. :fluttershysad:

    Words continue to happen, occasionally in the writeoffs, but mostly on the novel I've mentioned. I'm now about halfway through the first draft, and it's full steam ahead.

    See you all on the other side (or if I get a really cool pony fic out of the writeoffs).

    Interview!

    Hey folks, still not dead. I actually just finished an interview with SirNotAppearingInThisFic, which you can find here. Some great questions, and hopefully my answers are equally interesting. So go hit it up if you want to see me talk about writing, rockets, and stuff I've been working on.

    Enjoy!

State of the author · 3:32am Apr 18th, 2015

So, news. Good, bad and other.

Author existence failure has not occurred. Life is complicating fantasy, but I'm still actively writing, and plan to complete JPT. I've actually increased my writing efforts, and feel that my speed and skill are gradually increasing. Unfortunately, I doubt that will be apparent for a while, as the bulk of my recent writing has been on an original story (That said, the next chapter is about half done, and I have a nice trip coming up, so one can never tell).

As I mentioned before, though, I have no plans to discontinue penning pony prose, and I was recently inspired to contribute a small snippet to:

Additionally, I recently met with Cold in Gardez (Being that we're both in Japan and all - he's a cool guy), and he's inspired me to give the writeoffs a try to further hone my skills. I tried to pen an entry for the most recent writeoff, but my story idea never really gelled and I ran out of time.

So I apologize for the wait, but hopefully you can enjoy Anthem and any other bits that I come up with in the meantime.

It's good to see you're still writing, and making some more friends in the process as well. I can wait for a new chapter to come, and from the looks of it, it's going to be great. :pinkiehappy:

I'm down here in Japan as well; come drop by Sasebo if you want to talk. :derpytongue2:

It was great working with you, and it'll be good to see you in the Writeoffs!

Thanks, I certainly hope so!

I'm up in Tokyo, but if I ever have an opportunity to head down to Nagasaki, it'd be cool to meet up.

Thanks, I quite enjoyed the anthology process, and I look forward to future endeavors. :twilightsmile:
