Currently working my assets off. Between delivery work, harvest time on the farm and back to school for my own little ponies I've had precious little time to either write or satisfy my gaming needs over the past few days. Plus, as the fall rains have begun here the local forests are sprouting morel and chantrelle mushrooms which are super tasty. Which means more time afk whilst I hunt them down.
But I wanted to mention that I finally got those unicorns in my head to stop nattering away and Chapter 7 of The Bridle Path is being worked on. Just at a slower pace than I'd like due to the aforementioned life.
I also really wanted to mention a couple of stories. First Love is in every corner, even a cornerstone by Featherclaw. He is very new, but I think he will go far. His second chapter is quite good. The other one is one I ran into awhile back that has a new chapter. The Greatest Treasure by Evowizard25. Celestia decides to go on an inter-dimensional vacation and has a hard crash landing on Middle Earth. Where she is promptly captured by Smaug as an addition to his hoard.
As always, all the best to you and yours.
You think you are free of them? You will take that back when they return; trust me on that.
It likely won't be immediately, maybe not for a while, or even until after your story is finished and stamped "Complete". But you will have those mares come back to you, and point things out. "You are done? But we didn't even..." or "No, that isn't how I would act, darling, rewrite it now."
Characters will never leave you, so long as your story still has a shred of plot left in it (or a sequel).
Is the title of this blog a reference to anything in particular? Because I know the words "zug-zug" from Halo 2 (it's a voice line that the Grunts will sometimes say)

It's also a classic bit of audio used by the peons in the original Warcraft RTS. Along with "Back to Work."

Huh. I've never played Warcraft, but that might be where Halo 2 got it from. Then again, it could just be a coinkydink.
