    Tumblr and More Frequent Updates

    Hello! Alright, just two quick but VERY important updates.

    (1) I set up a Tumblr a few weeks ago and finally got the sense to post a link to it. Here it is: whats-your-cosplay-anyway

    Sickness and can't think of alliteration

    So basically I'm sick and badly so. As I write this very post I am wrapped in a blanket, downing Dots candy while my body feels like it's taking an extended vacation to the Crystal Empire (LOL, BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE! GET IT?!!??). But other than update my everyone on that, I have some nice story related news to get around to.

    Indefinite Hiatus

    Hey guys, important update time again.

    So basically, as the title would suggest, my activity on the site as well as working on the next Alistair entry is currently on hiatus. I know I've said this before when the going's gotten tough before but for once I actually have a different reason (or excuse if you want to get negative) for it happening once again.

Indefinite Hiatus · 6:57pm Sep 14th, 2015

Hey guys, important update time again.

So basically, as the title would suggest, my activity on the site as well as working on the next Alistair entry is currently on hiatus. I know I've said this before when the going's gotten tough before but for once I actually have a different reason (or excuse if you want to get negative) for it happening once again.

So basically I've attempted to work on three projects simultaneously when writing. Alistair, another fan fiction, and a separate original piece. But as time as progressed I've realized that just working on two projects at the same time is a hard enough commitment as it is, splitting time, effort, and even states of thought for three entirely different stories. I've done it before but I feel like the quality is under threat of suffering and I don't enjoy the process as much.

Not only that, the entire first few drafts of the latest Alistair entry had to be scrapped. Where the initial idea was going just wasn't up to my own standards of where the character and story needed to go. So instead of stretching out another grueling process of writing something that I don't believe is proper (Equestria vs. Japan I'm looking at you) I've decided to just restart entirely.

I'm still trying to pin down exactly where the series will go next so in no way has production ceased entirely. I will try to shy away from obligatory trilogies as the time stands however. The expectation of three interconnected stories may have worked in the first half of the series, but for now I'm thoroughly content with segmented vignettes that still tie in together.

All in all, I still love writing for you guys and in no way is this the final straw. I don't want to end it like this and I hope you guys stay patient with me throughout my consistent slew of consistent material. Once again, you guys are all awesome and thank you so much for the support!
