Rumours of my demise have been greatly exaggerated, if there even were rumours to begin with XD · 4:20pm Sep 10th, 2020

Hey all! I am alive! I am healthy (or as healthy as you can be when your state is on fire and the air looks like something out of Bladerunner), and I am very, very, very slowly finding the time/headspace to write Speak.

I've gotten a few messages from people, sweethearts all of you, asking if I'm okay because I haven't updated much. Part of it has been because I've just been so gosh darned busy, and part of it is because with the busy comes a lot of my mental, emotional, and physical energies being diverted other places. But I am still working on Speak. I am still trying to write on occasion so I'm not horribly rusty. Heck, I even managed to remember to help Somber edit a new chapter of Homelands! I think he's published more chapters than me this year and I need to step up my game on that one because oh god I am writing slower than Somber these days.

I wish I had more of an update beyond having about 2k words written in chapter 22 of Speak, but I don't and I'm sorry. My hope is that things will calm down, though I'm not optimistic because wildfires + corona virus + US civil unrest + political dickbaggery that always comes with election cycles in the US tend to really impact how people feel. So if you're stuck with me in the dumpsterfire hellvoid that is the United States right now, please take care of yourselves, and remember that things are easier if you're able to keep in touch with friends. Even if touching your friends is haram right now.

I don't have any inspiring words of wisdom for y'all other than being able to build communities of people who support each other tends to make everyone feel better and safer in times that may often feel unsafe. Connect to your friends, hang out if you can (be smart and safe and have chats about people's health like you're doing a hookup in the middle of the 1980s AIDS pandemic) or online if you can't. You would not believe how soothing it is to just chill with people and kibitz over terrible movies so you have those audio cues of being around people who want the best for you. We're all in this together.

the world truly is fuck right now. maybe we should do a movie night in my discord server or something. Im partial to LotR but not everyone has 12 hours to spare lol, suggestions welcome though!

[pester]oh btw how's that SunFlower story coming along? :3[/pester]

Yes. When Speak

Also, crap, I didn't realize I somehow missed two updates along the way. Covid's really had me keeping my head down. @ me next time y'all're doin' Discord voice things!

isn't that a cult

5352811 it’s also a movie by Michael Cimino about the Jackson County War. It is infamously unwatchable.

can we watch a gay cartoon instead

I have prepared several hugs for you from various ponies.
I only agreed to this because you said there were cookies.

I heard books.

Just hug the smolpone, you two. Then meet me back at work.

I can't believe Heartshine is dead. She was so young.

Glad you're alive and (with state-on-fire qualifications, though not glad about those) healthy. :)
Good luck with all the things you're busy with, and with staying in good mental places. :)

don't have any inspiring words of wisdom for y'all [...]

- right now and for me even just having some honest humans around is better than whole Encyclopedia of Wisdom [but I have like 1666 comments {off-this-site} to read anyway .... not quite sure why I try still read them ...] .

Thanks for making this small post. And well ... may you have some resonating reasoning luck in those times ....

Disaster Bat. We love you, hun.

Rereading that 1 chapter in PH is less traumatic than watching come and see
