    AppleDash Contest #6 - 19 Days Remaining

    That's right! Just 19 days left in the sixth AppleDash contest. I can hardly believe it, myself!

    I meant to post this a couple days ago, but ended up getting way too sucked into Factorio. But hey, with the odd February and end date, 19 days might just be fitting!

    I'm back!

    I'm sure my absence on this site went unnoticed by most, but I'm back! Had some 2FA issues with an old phone that wouldn't work long/well enough to let me get a token to log in here. Finally, after 17 months, it worked. I missed you all so much and will be trying to get back into the swing of things.

    AppleDash Contest #4 - Deadline Extension and 1 Month Warning

    I figured people would like to spend New Year's with friends/family instead of churning out horse words last minute, so the deadline has been extended by 24 hours. This means entries are now due at 8:00AM (GMT) on January 2, 2016.

    That's a few hours under a month to go!

NaPoWriMo and You · 11:52pm Aug 1st, 2012

Alright, alright. Cheesy title is cheesy.

But— NaPoWriMo is now in full swing for me. What does this mean? It means I'm setting a goal for myself of at least 2,000 words per day, or 62,000 words by the end of the month. NaPoWriMo has a goal of 50,000 words, so I have some room to play with should I miss a day for whatever reason. This also means that if I can keep up with this (because really, 2,000 words isn't that much work), you should see chapters a little more frequently than once a week. I'm looking at around 8,000 words per update currently (one < 1k word chapter and one 7k+ word chapter each), which comes out to roughly 4 days per update.

By the end of the month, I should have more than half of Past Imperfect written and if this month is a success, I'll likely continue writing 2,000 words per day through September as well to finish the story off.

Two months for over 100,000 words? I think I can do it.

Chapter Two should be done by this weekend. Saturday, probably.

I'll cheer you on! I'd be right there with you, but I can't focus on one story right now (or ever) and I probably write that much anyway.

But if you want, I'll PM and make sure you've written your words. Or whatever else might help. :ajsmug:

Yay! A supporter!
I think the most important thing for me is just knowing that people are interested and enjoying what I write. That's usually motivation enough to keep writing and so far there's been no shortage of that. :twilightsmile:

I can't read that many words!

I don't even know how to read!

Nah, but seriously. I'm right there with you!

Unfortunately, with school starting up, I might be a bit related on reading your story :pinkiesad2:

I'll keep up with it as best I can and provide positive encouragement. Good luck on your endeavors!

Thanks! And don't let me get in the way of school. The story isn't going anywhere! :ajsmug:
