    I got ART!

    I know I haven't done a blog in awhile, but being a full-time single parent working a full-time job, and a part-time writer tends to really chew into the hours I have in a week. That said, I just had to carve out a little time to show off the remarkable gift I was given from Lady Lightning Strike by way of the amazingly talented artist Pridark.

    Commissions!

    Yeah, been awhile since I've written any sort of blog post, but I do have some good news. I'm re-opening to commissions! My patrons on Patreon will get priority for their commissions first, but it doesn't mean that everyone else can't ask for some stories either. Here are my commission conditions:

    So... a small heads up about the upcoming month...

    I'm about to start writing the final chapter or two of the Brightly Lit saga, after which time I'm actually going to be going on vacation for a week. As in actual time off from my job and all other responsibilities. Which means no Twilight Learned this month, and perhaps not next month either as I reassess things in the wake of the end of writing roughly 350,000 words on one pair of stories set

    So... a bit of a heads up

    Over the past few years I've engaged in a practice of letting my patrons on Patreon decide what story I should update following the Brightly Lit update in the month, and I've noticed a bit of a pattern. Mainly that anytime "How Twilight Learned" comes up in the voting it easily wins. So recently I asked my patrons if they would like me to just concentrate on Brightly Lit and HTL until one of

    State of the Pen

    It's been 10 days since my brother died and 6 since we laid him to rest at the foot of a willow tree near a shady stream. I find myself both functional and numb. I can act, react, and do things, but anything beyond the basics is like trying to push fog with your hands. Something happens but not much. I find myself staring at a computer screen and feeling... nothing.

Well, damn. I actually have people following me. I find that pretty incredible considering how new and raw I am to writing. So...updates, right.

Chapter 5 of The Bridle Path is being worked on. I'm still getting everything written so that I can then re-write into something that makes intelligent sense. I work and have 3 kids. So, as you can imagine, my days are pretty full. I write in the evenings, when things are quiet and I'm happy to get 400-800 words I'm happy with down.

As to the plot. It will definitely continue to be a slow descent for our heroine. Picture her on a roller coaster. There will be highs and lows but the overall trend will be downwards. To my mind, true evil is not destructive. True evil tries to convert good into becoming evil. True evil is patient. It is seductive. And make no mistake. Our heroine is in the grip of something that is True Evil.


On other notes, just got in from work at the alpaca farm

and caught the new episode. As someone who started playing D&D with the old red box this was awesome. Okay, time to get back to it. Shout outs to Damaged, who I look upon as something of a mentor figure here and to Cross Lament, who raised an excellent plot point that I will be addressing in Chapter 6.

Lawful Evil at its best. :heart:

Oh, and if you like D&D, and ponies, then I would be remiss if I didn't show you this, Ponyfinder!

Yes, today's ep almost seemed like an ad for it, which is adorable. We are working on a new version of the game for 5e D&D too!
