Writing Plans! · 12:50am Oct 12th, 2016
A lot of things have been happening to my body and brain, and so far it has mostly been ordeals without a clear resolution (low response means we had to try a new anesthetic that hurts like fire going in, might be changing electrode placement which could lead to memory loss, the vein the anesthetic went in when I woke up during the procedure is hardened and itchy now, and so on). But I'm in good medical hooves, and expect that things will turn around eventually.
I mainly mention this because I don't want to delve into medical crap anymore on the blog. That's not why ponies watch my account, and I don't need to ramble on the details unless something interesting and significant happens.
Have a Pinkie!
Anyway, what's on the horizon?
There's a Writeoff going on right now that is my best format (Short Story, Friendship is Magic) and my canonical theme (The Darkest Hour) and I wasn't inspired enough to write anything! 
Unlike some writers, I need to have something to say before I can say it, and this is one reason my writing has tapered off lately: I'm focused on other things until I can be safely re-mused. I could write some interesting things, but I wouldn't enjoy doing it when I have nothing I want to express.
Most of my work lately has been on the Android game, which is coming along rather well IMO. It's just very slow work because I'm redoing hundreds of graphic images and rewriting code that was written by ponies who hate everything about computers and logic (as best I can guess). I can't ETA the alpha testing yet, but I'm hoping for later this year.
There are a few old stories I've written for Writeoffs that still inspire me which I'd like to clean up and post, so that may happen in spurts. The two that are most likely are a minific about a changeling, and a short story about a stranger in Equestria from Fluttershy's POV. 
Finally, the Epic Story I Always Wanted To Write is edging closer to fruition. 
I'm still uncertain how much audience-involvement I want, how much imagery/art I'll put in it, and in general how gimmicky I want it to be. I'll probably split the difference and make it text with occasional image insertions, and encourage either character suggestions or dramatic irony commentary or roleplay in the comments section which may end up guiding the progress of the story. I could start it anyday now, but the sooner I start it, the slower it will take off before it gets humming with regular updates. I don't think that's a problem, though, because I expect the quality will be high enough (and the plot intriguing enough) that it will capture a good-sized audience regardless.
As for other projects, I'll get back to them when I can. TSJ and the Secret Megaproject are both at the top of the list of "I'll be pushing these as soon as I can do so emotionally again".
But I love hearing about medical crap.
Just focus on staying alive. That's kind of the most important thing.
I'm glad of that. I really empathize with you on all the medical frustrations you've been experiencing. My father is a lifelong diabetic with neuropathy, gastroparesis, charcot joint, a kidney transplant, a leg amputation, heart valve and arterial stents, and plenty more besides. Hospitals and doctors offices are like my second home. The frustration and absurdity of it all can go beyond the limits of sanity so easily you don't know what hit you.
So...stay strong girl.
When that happens it's the worst haha. I'm the same in that I need to have something I want to say, a guiding purpose or emotion or idea or experience I want to convey that I shape the story around.
Continued good luck on the game ^.^
That's rarely a problem for me. I just ramble on about whatever comes to mind as I'm writing and then sometimes let my prereaders fix it later and other times just publish and see what happens.
