General update blog post · 6:20pm Oct 6th, 2017
Hello! It's been a solid month since I've gotten any substantial writing done, so I felt like I should say something about why.
Most of it is just being strapped for time lately, and likely for the next few months, part of it is that I had computer-related difficulties (solved now!) that kept me from the site for a week and a half, and part of it is that when I do simultaneously have the time and drive to write, it's for things that I don't want to publish until they're completely done. I've been especially focused on a story I started in September of last year, because it's as therapeutic for me as I Can Smile was. There's something that's been bugging me that I feel is best expressed in story form, but I'm almost sure that, like ICS, the reader will have questions/grievances that are best addressed if I can just tell them "Keep reading."
Whether or not the story I ended up writing actually addresses things properly is something I've been iffy about this past year, but I feel it's at least adequate in serving its purpose.
Then there's a similarly sleep-better story I started early this summer (or late spring, I forget now) that I feel needs especially delicate handling and presentation, and even when I get new parts done, I want to be sure everything meshes together just right. Perhaps even more-so than the above story, I'd really like it to be done entirely before submitting anything.
I think that's all I wanted to say. Hope you all have plenty of other stories (or any other hobby, I guess) you enjoy to keep you occupied!
Gonna see the MLP movie today, and I have a ton of reading to catch up on, let alone my own writing that is currently at a snails pace, so I'm good. When I finally have time I need to comment on *sadly* last chapters of Sucker. So sad to see it end, but so glad it ended before you got tired of writing it.
Good luck and I look forward to reading what you make when it's done.
Take your time. Love to see updates but you are by no means obligated to rush or sacrifice sleep etc.
Glad to hear you're still plugging away :)
Well, glad to hear you're still writing. I'll look forward to seeing the fruit of your labors.
