Bi-Monthly Update (October 2018)! · 1:15am Oct 4th, 2018

Hey everypony, and welcome to the best month of the year!

It's about time for another update to start off our spooky month; sadly, life has really gotten in the way of writing since I last posted a blog. Save for Stalled Out's most recent part, I haven't finished anything I'd deem fitting to publish. Lots of things happened and are continuing to occur IRL that sap my time, ability, and drive to write. I don't normally talk about my personal life here much, but I'll share the short version:

-In mid-August, my car hydroplaned in the rain when I was returning from college and crashed into two concrete barriers, totaling it. I only suffered minor injuries in the crash, thankfully, nothing but a sore leg for a few days; however, that meant that I had to deal with insurance through the phone, retrieve my belongings, and spent most of my weekend mornings/afternoons throughout September shopping for a new car, until very recently getting a new one.

-College has started again, and while it's not too bad of a semester work-wise, that still takes time away from creative efforts. There's a lot going on there and in my personal life that's preoccupying my thoughts, and I'm unsure when those issues will be dealt with yet.

-I've felt a bit under the weather this past week, perhaps starting to develop a cold. It's that time of year when I often get one.

That's not to say I haven't done any writing at all, just not nearly the output I wanted to shoot for since August. I'm unsure when I'll be able to finish another draft, probably not until things settle back down and my head's back on straight. Hopefully the deluge of distractions will pass in a week or so, I'll dodge this cold, and have something to show for it by month's end. My apologies for such a downer of an update; figured it was best to be honest though. With luck, I'll be back to my busy self sooner rather than later.

Have a happy October! It's too great of a month to be spent wallowing.
