    Little Character Thing

    So I've missed 4 weeks. Wohoo. Or more like "boohoo", but that's more how I feel about missing 4 weeks than anything.

    But it's finally time this old thing becomes relevant. Made this a long time ago. Spoilers btw, if you're not caught up with Tapestry: A World Apart.

    Late Updates

    Wanted to apologize for being late on updating Tapestry: A World Apart. I'm trying to start an indie development project at the same time I'm taking classes, add in some health issues and the last weeks have not been great. Just know It's not a long-term thing and updates will begin again shortly. It's really just a matter of editing and finding a few hours for it.

    I think one of the most beautiful things about reality is how it never does a half job. Every little blade of grass, to every insect, and from the forces of gravity on planets and the fusion that fuels our sun, to the forces exerted by the motes of dust landing on the ground to thunder across the Earth, it's all perfectly consistent.

    Today... Is the day.

    The last time I uploaded a new chapter for A World Apart was just a month under 3 years ago.

    But today...

    After all that time, and one heck of a set of life experiences I can scarcely even remember all of or in order,

    That's going to change.

    This feels extremely significant to me. It's something I've put a tremendous amount of passion, soul and work into.

It's All Wrong... By Rights We Shouldn't Even Be Here. · 10:21am Oct 9th, 2016

I'm not going to make empty promises that I'll suddenly start writing a chapter every week... But I may be writing a chapter every week already.

OR rather, I've proven to myself it's possible if I stop vectoring and use that late night "I WILL NOT FALTER" time to do that, instead.

I've been re-writing A World Apart to have a much more satisfactory premise/start, but will otherwise be much the same story in later chapters - such as chapters 4 and on, or whereabouts.

I've been reading a bit, too - they say any good writer reads a lot. Recently, FlimFlam's videos made me aware of "The Star In Yellow" which seemed to possess that surreal, deep kind of tone to it that I love, so I decided to give the fanfic a try, and it's got some wonderful meta in it. I got to wondering about writing stories in dark settings - throwing these cute little ponies that belong under a happy, summer sun, frolicking, into a frozen hell.

But the comments had the most amazing thing in them that really moved me. Here it is. So I will continue to write A World Apart.
