    Merry Christmas, all!

    My track record with Christmas releases is no longer perfect, but I do try! Only one 5k chapter of Sharing the Nation this year, though I'm hoping to have 5k more out before the new year. To make up for it, though, I've also brought out the Harry Potter crossover that's been languishing in

    Nothing this year, sorry

    Man, this has been… a year. Shortly after my last blog post, I had some (non-covid) medical issues that somewhat took over my life for a while, and while that's all in the past now, I'm only back where I was beforehand—completely unproductive. I was determined to get back into things at NaNoWriMo, but work steamrolled those plans and I just haven't been able to find the words to write something

    More burned out than I thought

    Jeeze, it's been four months since I decided not to force myself to generate updates for the sake of Patreon and gave myself the freedom to write whatever I wanted… but I haven't really written anything. I've done a thousand words or so here and there to play around with other fandoms, but nothing of significance.

    Shocking, I know.

    Tis the season for status updates. Not as much the other kind of updates as I would like, though

    It wouldn't be Christmas if I hadn't been completely incommunicado for at least a month or two beforehand, right?

    Unfortunately, I don't have chapters of Sharing the Nation to post for Christmas this year. I do have some Equal Opportunity Ascension chapters that only Patreon has seen, and I'll post those, I guess, but it's clear this… isn't working.

    Christmas Updates!

    Merry Christmas!

    As I've done every year since I started writing, I have updates here for you on Christmas day.

    ( It might look like there's a missing one, but the chapter for Sharing the Night that year was taken down and reposted)

NaNoWriMo · 8:29am Nov 1st, 2016

I'm not dead! Things are… far from ideal right now, but I'm not dead.

Anyway, since the next chapter I'm supposed to have done is Sharing the Night, and I would normally need to be on Sharing the Night next month in order to release the traditional christmas chapter, that doesn't leave any time to slip anything out for A Sparkle-ling Perfection! Well, I guess it being NaNoWriMo and all, I'll just have to write chapters for both this month and see how that goes. It's nowhere near the actual NaNoWriMo goal of 50,000 words, so I should be able to do it…

Well, I guess we'll see. If you want to poke me on, I'll be in whatever chatroom EQD sets up for NaNoWriMo. Actually, I and a few others are still in the Skype channel we used last year, so it might be the same one, though I put in a vote for using Discord this year…

Anyway, scene-by-scene updates for Patrons will also be resuming pretty soon unless things go horribly, horribly wrong, so there's that, too.

The last time I suggested Discord on Fimfiction I triggered some sort of cult that worships that ancient outdated TeamSpeak program, glad to see some authors around here enjoy it.

Yay! Very excited. :)

Discord is great. A far superior experience to Skype, IMO. I'm in Discord chats for a couple other fimfics and it works quite well! I encourage it. :)

Glad you're not dead, but I'm hoping my last comment doesn't become prophetic.

Les Bump!! Hello hope your doing well. Love your stories!
