    After Ten Years, I Finally Updated KUNG POW: ENTER THE HOOF!

    I said I would do it for Chinese New Year, so I have. What I've published was actually written about 5 years ago, with a little bit of addition and editing from this week. As such, it comes off very different from my modern writing, which is more technically proficient. But I wanted to get something done, so I decided I would just gussy up what I already had and call it a day. I'll update the

    January Updates and Plans

    Hey everyone! The end of the year was pretty hectic on my end (check this blog for the reasons why), but I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things. Despite the hectic schedule, I was able to write two stories in October and one in December, so there's at least some productivity on my end. There's actually quite a few

    December Doldrums

    Hey, all. Sorry for the silence through December, but unfortunately, right after Thanksgiving, my father started suffering from cardiac issues. He tried to hold out for a few days, but eventually my uncle and I convinced him to go to the hospital. Our instincts were right: he had intense tachycardia due to atrial fibrillation (when the atrium of the heart is not beating in rhythm with the rest of

    Thanksgiving Greetings and Contest Reminder

    Hey folks! Sorry there was nothing from me most of this month. My father got pneumonia earlier this month and had a lot of difficulty fighting the disease off, so most of my attention was toward that rather than anything on this site. I'll probably be more active in December, particularly in discussing my plans for 2025.

The Suffering Ends · 4:25am Dec 2nd, 2017

So this was one heck of a month for me. Not only did I promise to write 60,000 words for National Pony Writing Month, but I also had to go take the GRE Test in order to apply for my graduate school. Coupled with a birthday and shrinking possibilities of getting a job, it was quite the stressful month.

But I did it. I survived, and even succeeded in some places.

I studied for the GRE and got better than average scores.

I crammed in as much writing as I could in the final 3 days, doing almost 12,000 words a day until I reached my 60,000 word goal at 11:00 PM on the final night.

My birthday came and went, with the only gifts being a lot of money (definitely not complaining about that).

I still haven't found a job, but I need to apply to my school first before anything else.

So all in all, it was a hard month, but one that produced plenty of interesting things for me. Here's hoping December will be a little less stressful.
