I've done a lot. I'll just dump all the stuff I've done lately. I've been on panels at conventions, done some editorials, and also have done the recent Scare Master followup. Have some links after the break.
Here is my Twitter. I am beginning to frequently update it with all the stuff I'm doing, so follow it if you have it.
Also I'm running National Pony Writing Month. The goal is to hit 50k NON CLOP words by the end of the month. Check out this post for more information.
The Official Equestria Daily Panel, where I as well as MaskedFerret, Pegasus Rescue Brigade, Cups, Noble Cause, and Pascoite talk about Equestria Daily. I had fun on it since I got to talk about my dead Applejack parents joke (Now redacted on an editorial).
The Crossovers in Equestria Panel (2015). While crippled by a terrible time slot, I as well as Capn Cryssalid, Aquaman, GAPJaxie, Cyborg Samurai and Wanderer D got to talk about crossover fics and how they were done. I would recommend Crossover Writers to check out this panel.
Writing Comedy: How to Make Your Horses HIlarious: With an excellent turnout (Because it was in the morning on a Sunday), this panel discussed comedy, both in fics and in general. With Gary Oak, Aquaman, Skywriter, Capn Cryssalid, and Totally Not a Brony, this panel was a lot of pun, even if Gary Oak's puns made me want to punch him. I guess that's the point.
So apart from that, my writing is at a standstill. My editorials are becoming more bi-weekly because I'm working on college, but I'm doing some regarding writing for the next few weeks for NaPoWriMo. So look out for those. I have a massive backlog of editorials that I've done since my last update. Here is the link to the main EQD Editorial page, most of which I've done except for a few by Seth. Check who it's by to make sure it's by me!
It's getting harder to write or do anything. It's harder to sit down and write something, because all of my ideas just bombard me. It's hard to edit any videos because once I sit down to do anything, the energy just drains out of me. I guess it's just college taking the energy out of me, but I used to be able to balance both. Granted, I'm doing well in college, and the cost is understandable, but not being able to balance either is really depressing.
I moved out of my old living situation, which was pure hell. To sum it up, I lived with my best friend and my mother, and neither were good people to live with. I slowly hated it, but now I'm living with my stepbrother, where I at least have my own room. I have more time to write and record, but I don't seem to be doing it. Maybe I just need to kick myself in the ass. I'll work on that.
I want to do some one shots and I want to finish some fics that I wrote a while ago. I guess I'm just having more fun with writing editorials, since it correlates with my journalism major. Either way, I'm very glad that Seth gave me the chance to do this. It's putting me a head of the many students in my classes, many of which haven't even blogged or posted any sort of opinion piece before. The numerous amounts of comments and discussions that come forth from my editorials are flattering to say the least. It is the internet, so there are many people who just insult me, but fuck them.
Either way, I'm AWOL, but I'm not depressed or anything. I guess I'm just focusing on other things, and am uninspired with current creative fiction. Maybe things will change. Who knows? Thank you for reading, and I'll see you guys next time.
