I'm back, kind of. · 1:18am Dec 28th, 2016
Hello all,
It's been a while but here is the short version. I worked myself almost to death for a year, all I really have to show for it is some stupid shirts.
The last few months I've been taking it lightly but now that I've distressed some this is what my plans are.
I am still involved with Everfree NW but to a smaller degree. I won't be managing anything but will be providing some perspective to the new head of the writing track and I will be on panels, hopefully, more than last year.
I am doing more with youtube. I will be doing an occasional writing video. I will also be doing a few let's plays and some reviews for audiobooks. The theoretical schedule is 2 let's plays a week, probably mostly Minecraft, and one audiobook review a week.
The audiobook reviews will focus mostly on sci-fy and fantasy but there will be some other genres thrown in as well. I will do series, so each book in the series will get a video.
For writing, I have a few things going on.
1st, I need to focus on becoming a professional writer. I know I can do it I just need to get off my lazy ass and do it without getting distracted. I have a bad record for completing longer stories. On the bright side, I won't be doing anything experimental with it. This is a big thing that held me up with my mlp stories. There are three professional stories for me to consider. I will make a special video/post about this later.
For ponies, I hadn't decided what I wanted to do. I can't do anything long. That kind of commitment will be harsh as hell and I will fail as my record has shown. So that leaves short stories. The kind where I can get an idea, and complete it in 4-5 hours plus an hour of editing. Actually, most of by more popular stories were done this way and a lot of my long ones were not as well received. This should be healthy for me, completing stories, even short ones, should give me a moral boost.
I don't have a schedule for ponies but I expect to start looking at creating a possible short story this weekend, which would take about a week with editing.
Hey, good to see you again.

Hey, hows everything going for you/your family?
4358322 Just got back from a cruise, first vacation in a year. Come to think of it, I stopped and saw you the last time I was on vacation. Otherwise, we're maybe a couple weeks from publishing my wife's first story.

Oh wow, Awesome. I haven't been following my feed much, that will probably change soon but let me know when she does.
