The purpose of a story is that it's a story. It can be more, but it can never be less.

    Friendship is Magic: the Musical

    So I've been trying to find ways out of my recent funk, and this was one of the most recent attempts. I thoroughly enjoyed the freshman season of Hazbin Hotel, particularly the outstanding musical numbers and how the whole season could, with just a few small modifications, be made into a Broadway style stage musical.

    So I figured hell, why not do the same with Friendship is Magic?

    Our Last Anniversary

    I've been radio silent on social media since my now ex-wife and I announced our split. A few days ago, I was moved to write this and post it on Facebook. Figured I might as well post it here as well.

    Folks say it's pretty good.

    State of the Author 2023

    It's bad.

    Real bad.

    So it should come as no surprise that my wife and I are divorcing. We're having to take it slow because she's so close to the end of her degree and I want her to be in a good place to help take care of our boys. We're still co-habitating, still friends.

    New Story Incoming

    It's taken years. Multiple plot revisions. The complete scrapping of "Silent Night." More false starts than I'm okay admitting. And, ultimately, it took the collapse of the life as I've known it to drive me into the mindspace necessary to find this lost child in the wilderness and finally bring her home.

    I hope the wait has been worth it.

A Note of Thanks · 3:16pm Jul 2nd, 2021

To everyone who has read and enjoyed 'a Change in Perception,' I just want to say one thing; thank you.

'Change' is the first time since 'Dear Sweetie Belle' that I've put so much of myself into a story, mostly in the hopes of processing the emotions that have come from this entire ordeal. When the story was finished, I agonized over it for days. "This isn't good," I told myself. "It's going to get brushed aside. No one cares."

But some of you did. And that means the world to me.

Now, let me address something; no, there will not be a sequel. At least not written by me. If someone else wants to take the ball and run with it, then be my guest. Just make sure to link me to the finished project so I can enjoy it!

Writing 'Change' was so emotionally draining that I would prefer to stay away from that well for the time being. It's a story of wish fulfillment, and it wouldn't be healthy to continue down that path when reality is the total opposite.

However 'Change' fares in the contest, the reception it has received thus far has shown me, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that writing it was the right thing to do.

Thank you again. I love you all.

You're the best people in the whole world.

I thought it was a very deep and moving story, and I think we should thank you for writing it, because you poured your emotions and thoughts all over the story, and published it even though you weren't sure if it would be well-recieved. You were very brave, and you are an amazing writer. I think you should pat yourself on the back for that. And have a cookie 🍪

No problem it was a very interesting story how it will go and everything and I say that was awesome keep up the good work man
