    Where have I been?

    Where have I been? Short answer is dealing with very stressful things then getting sick.

    Long answer:

    Coping of a Former Human Removed (Deleted)

    Today, I have removed the "A Deer Named John" companion piece "Coping of a Former Human" from my published stories list. I've been considering this action for a long time (years) and have finally made the move. The reason being that it doesn't easily fit with what I have planned moving forward with its group of stories. Those stories I still want to write, just they now no longer have the weight

    State of the next chapter

    Have spent part of this week nibbling away at what could be considered the cold opening of the next chapter, which wasn't originally planned for. The fun of adjusting the end of the previous chapter. Reviewed the overall notes as well and am currently dealing with an issue which would have become a plot hole in about eight or ten chapters time so doing best to plug it before that can happen.

    It is finally here!

    It is here. It is FINALLY here! Approximately two years from the date I was originally aiming for and on a date I otherwise wouldn't have but the distraction is very welcome. The new chapter is finally out of my hands!

    As the author's notes say at the end of the chapter:

    Finally!

    The draft for the next chapter, current title (MA2-C3) City Search, is finally complete. It still needs a little tidying up but, so long as major changes don't need to happen, it shouldn't be long until it is posted. If major changes do need to happen, I will post an update. The title may still change if I come up with something better before it is posted.

Annoyed at myself - better explanation in the comments · 1:02pm Jan 13th, 2020

Disappointed that I won't be getting the next chapter of A Deer Named John posted by the end of the 13th anywhere in the world. I will try, just really doubt it now. Considering how low today has made me, I'm surprised I didn't make another part to The Coping of a Former Human. Ah well, maybe I can stop feeling down over getting older then get back to working on the chapter. Though, it is more about another year passing without achieving my dream than getting older itself. Still really want to share the next chapter, it is an interesting one. Hopefully very soon.

Just for today,

Ye olde Tael.

Been that, done there, threw the shirt in the garbage.

I have my browser on autopilot so whenever you publish it, I'll be there. Meanwhile, stay safe and healthy first, write later.

Personally, I will probably write more because we have entered the gray season of the year. Drizzling rain, mud, and just cold enough to hurt is all I'll see for the next two months or more.

If you want a little friendship, bump me.

Hum, missing a publishing window is only a big deal if you make of it, I can understand what you are going though, The important part that you need to keep in mind is to just keep writing, and to keep pushing through it, ignore the deadlines you make for yourself, is that best way to start getting out of a spiral of depression.

Just sit back take a deep breath you got this and you have fans and watchers that are here to support you

Thank you all and sorry for mixing things up a bit. The date is more of a big deal than the publication of the next chapter. And yes, I was talking mostly about the next chapter of John. Wanted it out to give everyone a present instead of me feeling bad about yet another year passing without publication of a non-pony work, one which is greatly linked to my ex who passed away (though originally not so linked, it grew into something more and I want it dedicated to them), but that is my problem to deal with and a goal for me to continue to try and reach. The thing about the date is, it is my birthday and I would so rather give a present to others on that day than receive. Not great at handling that day, I know.

Sorry about the pseudo spam there. Wasn't sure it was linking properly to all of you.

I have absolutely no clue what you had posted, and what ever it was I can understand that that your feelings are on a hair trigger at the moment, just try not to act on them in the heat moment, it helps to avoid a lot of regrets later down the road,; I am speaking from a lot of bad experience here.:raritywink:

I know. Thanks. I am trying. The two deleted comments were basically the same as the one I sent third, just the linking reply didn't appear to be working properly. Sorry about that. Not the first time FiMFiction comments have gone weird on me. Things should be settling down from now for me personally at least.

Honestly never thought of any of my watchers as fans before. Huh. That's many parts humbling, unexpected and something I will need to get used to.

You have fans. They mostly don't say anything but go look at your statistics. Every time you release a chapter, a 500% spike shows up.

Good luck with beating this software into submission.
