    What We Talk About When We Talk About Writing - A Small Update

    (At this point, maybe every blog will have a title referencing some literary work, for funsies)

    Hi, everyone! I thought I'd drop by with a quick update as to what I've been working on. Nothing too fancy - I'm not good at making a blog look like that - but I figure this might interest some of you.

    Where I'm Calling From

    Introduction: A Confession

    I lied. 

    Well, maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration. It would be more accurate to say that I opted for a partial truth. In the words of Carlos Ruiz Zafon, “Perhaps, as always, a lie was what would most resemble the truth”1—and in this fashion, I did lie.

    Going to a con might have been just what I needed...

    ... to get back into the fanfic writing game.

    I might totally be jinxing it by talking about it here, but I also think me saying it at all holds me to it, in a way.

    Or maybe I'm just superstitious. Many writers are. :P

Where have I been? · 2:26pm Oct 29th, 2018

One word: college.

It is amazing how within two months you become both incredibly busy and yet also sometimes incredibly not. It is amazing to think that two months ago I was online most every day, writing something. It is saddening to see and to recognize that I have not been able to match that same amount of work as time has gone on, and it is also saddening to reflect on what was done and is now done for good.

I do not think I shall write another story here. I have yet to even catch up on the show or the spin-offs. Nor have I been consistent in my readings of fanfictions, or otherwise exploring what FIMFiction has to offer. I cannot say if I shall ever regain such commitment as I once had.

I have a new friend group. They are good and fun. They have taught me so much in such a short span of time. I am, to say the least, comfortable here in college. I am growing. I am stronger now. It is good and it is true. I think that is all we need in life: something good and true.

Perhaps that's the same with writing.

But I digress.

I have been away and most likely will continue to be away. I am sorry that my time here has been cut abruptly short. But the one consistent thing about life is this: it goes on. So must we.
