    Well. This is new. And horrible.

    I’ll be candid and short, since my typing is currently compromised by lack of computer and a ventilator that makes voice-to-chat darn near impossible.

    UPDATE:

    Another Month, Another Update

    It feels somewhat hyperbolic to open with "EVERYTHING IS WORSE NOW", but here we are.

    Collab and Signal Boost!

    Recently, the Kirin Fans of Cuteness group performed a story exchange, and I was a participant! Hooray!

    Then my symptoms got worse! Bleh!

    Life Update: Things Suck Bad (rereading everything to get back to writing though!)

    It's... been a bit hasn't it? I really shouldn't leave people in the dark so long. But when it's sometimes this dark, I just have to stare at a wall and wonder if any of my (lovely, wonderful, marvelous) watchers really care to hear what's going on.

    Update: Monkey's Paw

    "Boy, I know the oncologist said before that he expects the surgery to happen within 2 to 3 weeks, but I hope not. I'd want to be able to move around at least for my birthday. Gee, I wonder what the surgeon is going to say today..."

    And the Monkey's Paw clenches.

    GENERAL WARNING. Moroseness and details on bad cancer stuff incoming.

April 2021 Update · 4:54am Apr 6th, 2021

Alright, so I figure it's been long enough. Time to give everyone a little heads-up about what's going on at the moment, even if nothing's really going on. But, since that's kind of the problem/not-problem, still a good thing to bring up.

So far, I've managed to write between 5 and 10 thousand words for the final main chapter of All These Midnight Days.

Pause for effect

Unfortunately, I've since deleted all of those words, since they were GARBAGE. Getting this finale right is important, and so... multiple drafts. And some are stinkers. Happily, this latest one is slapping, so I think I'm now making excellent progress. Describing the Dream Realm and covering what exposition I need to cover in a way that's not... bad... is really tricky. But the words are flowing now, so... it's probably good now.

Maybe.

In other news, I've been convinced by one friend to look into some sort of Buy-Me-A-Coffee or Patreon scheme system thingie. It would be nice to see a little dosh every now and again from my hobby, but I'm still very much conflicted over that sort of thing. Not that I disapprove of people making money. It's more that I don't think I deserve nice things. Or money. Or happiness

Right. There might also be a... Group in the making. I haven't finalized the art or rules or - sweet jesus how long of a post would it take to summarize every Anarchyverse story thus far??? - some other things for that. But making a group for people who just wanna talk about writing, or about Anarchyverse itself would be super-cool, kinda like how the Oversaturated World has its own group.

God, that feels so egotistical when I write it out.

So, Midnight is coming along well, I'm definitely interested in whoring myself out for money and approval, and I'mma build a clubhouse soon and invite ya'll over sometime.

After that though... interesting times. I've got some Zap Apple stories bouncing around I'd like to get down on digital paper, and Trixie is always in the forefront of my mind. That's the one story that's actually fully and completely mapped out in every way (except for one), so it's like I'm just running a completed film through my head whenever I think about it. And I've got non-Pony stuff in the works, one even being a horror story for a cultural contest.

And... that's about it. I have once again forgotten to write down any cool ideas for a D&D themed post. Let me know in the comments if you'd like my hot takes on rules and editions, or some storytimes about past characters and campaigns I've been a part of.

Excited to see what you come up with. Take all the time you need!

But making a group for people who just wanna talk about writing, or about Anarchyverse itself would be super-cool, kinda like how the Oversaturated World has its own group.

God, that feels so egotistical when I write it out.

For the record, I am more than okay with you making a group for this setting. :twilightsmile: Looking forward to the thrilling finale of Midnight Days.

And I'm certainly interested in some campaign storytime.

How the Little Ministers are going?

Very slowly. Just haven't been feeling very creative on that front lately.

They are good. I will wait.
