While dropping off a book at the Corvallis Public Library on my way home this afternoon, I happened to glance at a whiteboard set up with the question "What is your favorite book to re-read?" written on it. There were only a few responses - I saw Eragon on there (tch), along with a few other books I didn't recognize.

But then I noticed something rather interesting sitting over on the edge of the whiteboard.

Stuff's on pause for a bit. Here's why.

I recently heard about an experimental treatment for depression: a series of low-dose ketamine infusions. So I immediately took off work and headed to the nearest clinic (about four hours away), and that's where I'll be all week.

This group is advocating that the month of June shall be FIMFiction's NaNoWriMo-esque month. Unfortunately, I am not at a point in my life where I can confidently assure my participation. Standardized tests, finals, first flurry of job applications, praying to Chrysalis that I can at least lock myself in my room on the weekends and finish my current stories...

Yeah, I can't finish such a project by July 14th.

I think it's about time I see where I stand. Come take a look with me?

Well guys, I've come to a realization.

Let me discharge some words of wisdom having come from the Sonic Fandom, The OG PPG era and now this MLP era:

As many of my esteemed colleagues in this fandom have said, it bears repeating:

Creativity cannot be boxed in. It cannot be stifled. it cannot be destroyed.

Hey out there in internet land. Short time, no see.

Sorry to those of you who have been messaging me with commissions and stuff If I've seemed scattered. Rough week doesn't even begin to describe this week.

Hi!

You may be wondering where are the fanfics I promised? Well, here's the thing:

I have some fiics ready to go (like the sequel to 'the night of the outcasts') but I'm afraid of releasing them, that's why I haven't uploaded them yet, but that's not the only reason, I also am getting ready to go back to school, and it's keeping me from writin.

first, that's a metaphor. i am not dead, and i am feeling surprisingly non-suicidal, so take that as you will.

over the last few days i reached out to what i hope are all my commissioners, offering them full refunds on their purchases. i won't share any more details about that here, other than to say it's something that i can't really afford but am hoping to sort out through various means.

maybe. possibly. at an outside chance.

ahem.

so it turns out PayPal has not completely left me to go fuck myself. they say that if i can provide enough government issued documentation that proves who i am, i might be able to unlock my account.

obviously, i'll be attempting to do that. however, there is a problem in the meanwhile; without my PayPal account functioning, i can't manage payment for my work in any reasonable fashion.

this will be our last update unless something goes right or majorly wrong

we still do not have a reliable place to stay. we know someone who has said we can stay with them, but it doesn't seem like they are going to come through for us. we have an interview with two potential renters tomorrow, but we are scared they will not work out.

currently we also do not have anywhere to store our things. we do not have much, but our books take up a lot of space.

we are unsure how to respond.

tldr: Not canceled, just IRL is a pain in the ass. Last 3 chapters are still in the works.

I haven't posted here in a bit, and I thought you all deserved an update. The gist of everything is, the events of COVID-19 have put a lot of stress on everyone involved. I don't want to go into personal details, since I figure you guys are here for horse stories, not the personal life of some random guy on the Internet. Progress is still being made, slowly, but surely.

"Dying to get there" is a common English idiom meaning "anxious to arrive at your destination."

It also happens to be the title of a fanfic by yours truly about everyone thinking Twilight literally kills herself every time she teleports (as it turns out, I not-so-secretly love puns).

So, which is more important according to Google - the MLP fanfic, or the masses of humanity who use the idiom?

My brother found my porn folder..... and the first thing he saw was Braeburne

This may be the last time ill be on for an unforseen ammount of time. See you all when i get back

Hello, everyone. Randome here.

The past month or so has been very busy, and I haven't really had the chance to do much. I've had many exams, and have been in a semi-depressive mood as of lately. And sleep deprived. But I've had multiple of you supporting me when I couldn't do it myself, and I thank you for that.

Well folks, it’s 2:10 in the morning on the day I’m supposed to start work. I’m supposed to be up in two hours to get ready. I haven’t slept a wink since going to bed at 9:30 PM. Today is the first day of not only my two weeks of training but also of my riding the bus to work, which I have never done before. I ran the route yesterday with my mom in her car, but I have to say I’m pretty nervous anyways, even though that helped me feel better.

Hi everybody, and good morning. So, if you haven't heard, there's this thing with YouTube lately and COPPA (Child Online Privacy Protection Act). COPPA is a good law which prevents the collection of data on children under 13 years old. And, well, YouTube broke that law. So they got sued by the FTC. $170 million, a pittance, really.

Fair tidings and well met! By sheer coincidence and the stars aligning, my editor finished combing through chapter 32 last night!

.... While the entire site was down.

But now that we've got that out of the way, I figured I'd update everyone. For those who do not know, Magisight is 33 chapters (32+epilogue) long. Here is the current status of the last two remaining chapters

32: Draft+Revision complete. Edit complete. Awaiting final proofread, then release.
