    Be still, sad heart! and cease repining; Behind the clouds is the sun still shining.

    You probably know how this sort of thing goes. There you are, mowing your grass on a day that can't decide whether to shine or drizzle on you, a few years and counting into your non-writing streak. Whatever thoughts you're having are at the expense of your lawnmower picking a fight with every passing tuffet and losing.

    Just as alicorns descend upon parched wastelands bearing storms and seeds, so too do kindly translators upon my horsewords. Dark Country's received a Russian translation by the kind efforts of

    Stellarum voces

    A jolly update for folk who like either fanfic readings or The Motion of the Stars, and a downright rapturous one for folk who like both. My name is R has brought their vocal talent to bear on the story, complete with images and background music to help

    On Brains

    A nice breezy dialogue to ease in with:

    CARABAS’ COMMON SENSE: So, a hypothetical conservation for you.
    CARABAS: Two lines in and we’ve already got fictional discourse nested in the initial fictional discourse. Gosh, I must just love to live dangerously.

[Insert poetic and clever title incorporating both angels and stars here] · 2:16am Aug 17th, 2015

Another grateful shout-out to Seattle's Angels - and to Professor Plum and RedSquirrel456 in particular - for paying kind consideration to The Motion of the Stars in their most recent review post!

It's the third time one of my stories has been recommended by the group (the other two being Second Sun and The White Horse), and I think it's approaching the point where I don't think there's actually anything left of mine that they can draw attention to by their own rules. Regardless, each review from them's been a pleasure to receive. Check out the Angels here if you haven't already. Join them in their noble faffing endeavours, why not.

In other news, Noctivagant now has something vaguely like an actual existence, and I'm about four and a half thousand words into the actual text. Wish me luck, and wish curses on any writer's block that threatens. I'm looking forward to seeing this one completed.

Good luck. :)

Thank you also! May it be fied good and hard.

Congratulations also on finishing The Last Vacation, and my own apologies for not keeping up with it recently. I'll catch up with it as soon as I can.

I really have to read some of your other works. I actually just started the newest chapter of UALS today. So, coinkydink. And does Motion have any down votes yet?

Please do! I'd be delighted to know your thoughts on any of them. And good stuff about the new chapter. Let me know if and when you want my cackhanded proofreading applied to it.

No downvotes for it that I'm aware of. It's uncanny. If it persists, I'd be almost tempted to give it one myself just to defuse the inevitable torment.

I could downvote it for you :duck:

Would you? Truly? You're a kind and generous soul. :twilightsmile:
