    Been a while

    Bit of a long-winded update post. Sorry. That is my writing style, after all.

    So obviously I haven't been active in a hot minute. Two main reasons:

    1 - I wrote way too much way too fast and burned myself out, and as such need time to recharge (that happens a lot with me. My love for writing, among other hobbies, comes and goes).

    Good news and, well, not bad news, but kind of neutral news, I guess? Also next story plan, and a wiki of sorts.

    So uh, the final chapter is ridiculously long. Like, over 20k words long. Obviously that's too much, so I'm splitting it into two chapters.

    Yo I promise I'm not dead

    I'm actually pretty close to finishing part 2 of FiMTech. I know it's been over half a year since the last chapter was released, and I make no excuses; I'm lazy and have things I'd rather be doing. However, I do still write every now and then. I love this series and want to see it completed someday. No telling how long that will take considering the number of titles I have planned for it, but

    Hmm

    Chapter 13 of The War of Annihilation is basically just 5.7k words of dialogue. I can't help but think that's a bit much, but at the same time I don't think I could have made it much shorter while still fully preparing for the next (and final) chapter. Well, the ending should be exciting enough to make up for that, so hopefully it's not too unforgivable. My stories are usually

    Haven't been feeling that writing bug lately

    I've had a bit on my mind the past week and it's kept me from writing anything. I'll try to get back to it at some point. I'm sitting on almost 20k words of a story that I need to proofread so I can submit it, but I just don't have the motivation to do it yet. Soon. Once that's done I'll get back to FiMTech.

Writing will slow/come to a halt for the next month or so · 9:59pm Jul 15th, 2019

If you don't want to read the whole explanation, the short version is; after I release the next chapter of FiMTech, there is a high likelihood there won't be another until the middle or end of August. I might be able to write a bit here and there, but don't expect anything to get published.


So I've got a pretty big thing in my life that I need to get done ASAP. It takes priority over everything other than work, so depending on how fast I get it done, I probably won't be able to write for anywhere between one to two weeks starting this Wednesday. I should be able to release one more chapter of FiMTech before then, so hopefully that will hold everyone over.

After that happens I've got BronyCon 2019 to prepare for (I'll be in Baltimore from Thursday until Monday), so that will be exciting. During that time I won't be writing, just trying to enjoy the last BronyCon and Neighhem Fest directly afterward. Since it's ending I want it to be extra special, and I can't be distracted by my writing or anything else.

And of course, the postcon blues are going to settle in during the week following the convention (or post-con depression, whatever you want to call it). Since it's the end of BronyCon I expect it to be especially rough, so it's possible that I won't start writing again until the second or third week of August. I guess we'll see what happens.
