    Hereafter Ponies Delayed, Changed Workflow due to RSI, Will Practice with New G1 Story

    Due to RSI, I took two weeks off at the beginning of October. When I tried to go back to work, my hands still bothered me. It was only on the 16th that I came up with a solution.

    Using an Android app called Orgzly, I've begun to outline Hereafter Ponies in its entirety, something I'd been doing sparingly in recent months. This'll let me rest my hands while also staying productive.

    Health Update: The Greatest Showmare, RSI, Dvorak

    Last week, I had just finished the second-to-last scene of the next chapter when my hands started bothering me. I tried a whole bunch of things like wrist braces, setting the ceiling fan to the lowest setting so that it wouldn’t blow cold air on my hands as I type, gloves, rearranging the pillows since I type in bed, an elaborate series of stretches, and, most importantly, learning the Dvorak

    Afterword: The Mare in the Moon

    In late July of last year, my cousin was going away for a week, and I was asked to house-sit for them. As an aspiring author, this gave me a chance to write in private (and use their internet). Of course, my brothers invited themselves over and spent the first couple of days watching cartoons. After they ran out of shows to watch—and since I wasn’t getting much work done—I suggested we watch My

Hereafter Ponies Delayed, Changed Workflow due to RSI, Will Practice with New G1 Story · 12:41am Oct 30th, 2019

Due to RSI, I took two weeks off at the beginning of October. When I tried to go back to work, my hands still bothered me. It was only on the 16th that I came up with a solution.

Using an Android app called Orgzly, I've begun to outline Hereafter Ponies in its entirety, something I'd been doing sparingly in recent months. This'll let me rest my hands while also staying productive.

However, given the enormity of the potential outline, the fact that I'm not used to making one, and the time it'll take me to finish it, I shall practice this new workflow on a new, much shorter story: Rescue at Midnight Castle.

Megan Williams falls down a well into the magical land of Dream Valley. Transformed into a blank-flank alicorn, she is recruited by the little ponies to rescue their friends from the dark hold of Nightmare Moon.
