    Been a while...

    Hi folks. How are you doing? Been a while. I like to imagine in the great solar system that if FimFic I'm some trans-Neptunian object that only occasionally comes into view intermittently before wandering out to the cold antipodes of space to which I belong. Personally life has been the same. Some original writing. Glacial progress on Homelands, but its not dead. I'm going to be at EFNW in

    Feeling better. Also, an interview.

    So my temperature is almost back to normal and I feel a lot better. Hopefully in a month or two I can get an antibody test and find out if that was C19 or just flu. Anyway, either way, doing better.

    I'm also going to be doing an interview for the midair pony faire on twitch. It'll be on Horizons, Homelands, and Worldbuilding in general.

    C19, cons, and other stuff.

    So 2020 sucks. It just sucks. I'm sick with something and waiting on a C19 test. Hopefully it's just a flu or some junk.
    But there is something good happening on the 25th. Ponyfest Online is a discord con and I'm going to be holding an hour long discussion on character creation, evolution and development.

    Ministry of Image Fallout Equestria print finished.

    Coming in at a whopping 9 books is all of Horizons. You can read it... prop up a leg of your bed... kill a caribou with it... Paper the walls of your house... have a yearly supply of toilet paper... the list goes on and on.

June Update · 10:37pm Jun 6th, 2016

Okay. May sucked. Not as bad as it could have... but it sucked. Apart from being able to go to Bronycon due to a particularly wonderful donation and folks letting me crash on the floor, it was rough. I'm doing construction work for some extra money for the trip, but if anyone is feeling generous, I'd really appreciate any spare bits.

My plans are to get out a non-FoE fic inspired by Silver Quill. Consider it an AU for Magical Mystery Cure or "The missing half of second three." I'm not sure which. I hope to have the next chapter of homelands out by the end of the month before bronycon.

Some folks were asking me how I felt about season six. All in all, good. I haven't had an episode that's been my 'dragon quest' yet. What I don't see is any signs of an arc. Season 1 and 4 did arcs well. Season 5 had bookends that I wish was carried through in an arc. Season 6 feels like season 2 in that it's just doing its thing. I expect something completely out of left field on season 6.

We also need a lot of episodes... a Celestia episode. A batpony episode. I'd like to see more of the world like we saw in season 5.

That's about it. If you like my writing and want to see more of it, please support my patreon. It's evaporated over the year and May was a rough month.

Well, don't forget the blurry background changeling at the end of the premiere. That will likely amount to something in the finale, I figure.

I heard that there's supposed to be a cutie map type of episode coming soon.

I would love to see a Celestia episode!

I know you're doing a fantastic job so far, and that you have so much on your plate right now, but if you ever do get any spare time, could you please look into adding additional spaces in between some of the lines on Project Horizons? For example:

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
ccccccccccccccccccccccccc
fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.....

Instead of that, it becomes:

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj

bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

cccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......

It's just that it makes things so much easier to read. But you know, if you ever get the time and all. Just whatever you think is best..... :fluttershysad:

Holy shit, you are going to BronyCon? Super excited! I would love to meet the author of my favorite fic. I'll have to get something for you to sign.

I'm very sorry i forgot to wish you a happy birthday last month, sir... i really hope things do get better for you.
