I did it... · 6:18am Nov 30th, 2012

50,000 words done... In less than a month.

Over 13,000 words done in the last 5 days of NaNoWriMo...

Thank you all for the support. It helped a lot. It meant a lot. You guys kick flank. And I mean all the flank. You be kickin' it.


Love you guys for obvious reasons and I hope to have this book finished and ready to publish by the end of January. I might take a break (for my own sanity) to do another chapter of TTEOAP. Haven't decided yet. Right now, I'm just... This is what I needed. This was the pick me up required to keep me sane.

And for those that want to know, Dad's cancer is still treatable without debilitating him and my niece is talking again.


Again, thank you so much for everything. n.n

>:O And stop sending me Christmas presents! I feel like such a tool for not having the money to reciprocate! Just send me a love letter or something! XD

P.S. It's not even December, you clowns!

A Love letter? Would you even accept such a thing from a Chocobo?

Great to hear it Cards! :twilightsmile:

Dear CardsLafter
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas this year. Your's truly.
-Sneakyfoxx

Glad we could be of service. We'd do it again in a heartbeat. :pinkiehappy: Good job with the writing! Can't wait to see what you've cooked up there. It'll be great, I know that much. Anyways, glad to know things are looking up!

That's great to hear.
It's good to do something different once in a while , right?
I'm thinking of doing NaNoWriMo next year myself.

that's an insane writing pace, hope i'll be able to order a copy online or something :D

:pinkiegasp: You get christmas presents?! My followers never send me presents! :fluttercry:

Anyway, dude, glad to see you made it! Good for you! :pinkiehappy:

Well you seem chipper.
Here's something to scotch tape on your mini-fridge.
I worked extra hard for an awesome person such as yourself.

Alright, but I get to include chocolates with that love letter!

I will send all the love letters

Can someone explain to me what NaNoWriMo is? Also, GREAT JOB LAFTER!!!! I've been reading this story since the beginning ((The original)), and I still love it.

National Novel Writing Month.
Write a crapload of words in a month.

Forgot the letter:
Dear FunnyDeck,
Oh hey, you're the guy with that awesome story.
Merry fucking Christmas and a Jolly Ranchin' New Year.
Hope your dad doesn't get any more problems and that we get to see more of FlameShield.
~Always breathing down your neck, PlaceHolder

554924 I would but...
Besides good pony ficiton, I'm not sure what you like. :fluttershysad:

554924 I sent you a present, but I'm not sure if they'll allow the 'My First Bombmaker's Kit' to be sent to America.

Also, I would say good job but that doesn't seem like enough, so even though you can't see it Cards, I literally just gave you a standing ovation, no lie.

That last week didn't look anything like this, did it? Well, good job on kicking your own flank across the finish line.
Good luck in the future, and may the odds be ever in your favor! :pinkiesad2:

Dear Cardslafter
I love you.
Merry Christmas.

....*Tacklehugs*

So good to hear, dude.

Congratulations! And may the good news keep pouring in for you!:pinkiehappy:

554983

Is that just in the US?

Good news is always welcome!:pinkiehappy:

Congrats! And I'm glad things are looking up for you. =)

Well congrats on the good news and the impressive accomplishment. I mean, over 1500 words a day. Not including time spent planning, editing, peer commentary, etc. That is an accomplishment worthy of a Xbox live accomplishment. Not like those wussy 10p ones. Color me impressed. I imagine it as sort of a mauve. And I'll hold off sending you a Holidays letter when its actually IN December. But take a happy holidays greeting in the meantime.

Indeed it is. Tis why it's National, not world wide. We have a lot of strange holidays like this. Like Secretaries day. And talk like a pirate day. (Not making this up; totally real.) Black Friday is a fun one, first day after thanksgiving is the beginning of the holiday season, and is marked by massive sales at almost all US realtors. Couple years a man got trampled to death in a crowd outside Walmart when they opened at midnight for the sales. Americans like throwing celebrations for stuff :D

Does this mean I can stop kicking your flank now?

I send you love letters all the time and you never return them! >:

epic man, looking forward to seeing it!
*brohoof*

Cards You Rule!

I'm excited for your book bro! I'll buy it as soon as I can.
We all think you're awesome!

Talk Like A Pirate Day and Black Friday are celebrated up here in Canada too. But, hey, at least Canada has holidays which make sense.

Congratulations!:yay:
You're welcome.:twilightsmile:
We love you too.dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/lolface_Queen_Chrysalis.png

I'm glad to hear that your Dad's cancer is still treatable and that your niece seems to be recovering too.:yay:

You kick much flank too.:rainbowdetermined2:

Yes, yes. Boxing Day. The holiday which comes from the Old English tradition of boxing up old goods to give to the poor. It has become a symbol for consumerism now.

Never doubted you for a moment.

Dear CardsLafter,

Happy Birthday!! ...Ahem. It seems my inner Frosty got the better of me there. Anyway, Merry Christmas my friend! I also wish to congratulate you on accomplishing your goal! 50K words for a story in under a month is quite an accomplishment in my opinion. It is also really great to hear that your dad's cancer is treatable and that your niece is speaking again. Finally, I wish to express my completely and undying love for you (in a platonic way. Bro-love at its finest!).

-Menelaus Redz

WOOOOO!!! I dunno what i'm happier for! Your Niece and Dad being okay or your writing successes! Let's just go with it all rocks!:pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy::pinkiehappy:

Dear CardsLafter

The laughter that your writing brought
from times fills me with a sort of drought.
As the chapters come to end
I am inclined a comment send.
Then comes the waiting game
the drought waiting for me the same.
But as I 'bout too drought give in
the words they great me, an update in!
I fly to chair, drought forgotten
I SING the song "I ain't downtrodden!"
So come my friends and sing along
To the fray we join in song!

- A silly poemy thingy, by Lore

THE MAN LIVES!!! *glomps Cards* Good to hear everything's looking up! :pinkiehappy::twilightsmile::raritystarry::rainbowkiss::yay::ajsmug::derpytongue2::scootangel::twistnerd:

*Looks around shiftily* *hides Christmas present*

Awwwww no presents? :pinkiesad2::derpyderp2:Well merry its-not-christmas-yet

Wow, that really must of been some hard work, I hope you enjoy a well deserved break. Also if it's not too much to ask I am curious as to what your current novel you are writing is about.

This is great news to hear. I'm happy to hear that everything is turning out for the better. Also, congratulations on reaching your goals. *raises glass for toast* And here's to many more in the future! Well played, Lafter. Well played indeed.
Best wishes always,
KnightShadow

Dang, that a lot of words
i'm betting your story is epic!
:D

It's so awesome to hear you're doing better dude. Hope you have some awesome holidays and your life continues on the upward trend.
Lotz o' love from Colorado! :heart:
