I don't post blog entries terribly often here, because I'm more active on deviantArt in that regard.

Here's my Deviant page:

Yes, my avatar and profile image are the same as here; our late family cat Misty (14 years old, she was a strong and capable cat).

I don't post much in the way of visual art. Most of my submissions are based in writing; thoughts, feelings, reflection, speculation, and others.

Hey guys.

I wrote a new story recently. It was for the informal challenge I posted about not too long ago. I managed to write one up in about three weeks that meets the criteria, and it was actually quite informative.

So, every month for the past few years now I've done up a chapter of Brightly Lit or its sequel, Brightly Lit 2: Pharos. However, what I write after that has always been a major decision and I often have people clamoring for fresh chapters of stories that have had to sit for awhile. Also, I always feel guilty about taking money for writing. Yes, I know it's deserved and those of you who are Patrons are happy to support me, but I've always wanted to give you folks more.

A friend of mine created this awesome group to encourage others to use their creativity during these dark times.

So I thought I would promote the group for them, here.

Worry not! For I have the challenge for you.

Hello everyone, been awhile since I have done one of these. Lots of ponies ask me "Nailah, why do you do interviews, what do you expect to get out of them?"
So I thought just for fun, I'd answer that question here, since it keeps coming up in my interviews.

Hi. Been a bit since you heard from me, hasn’t it? I imagine you’ve been wondering if I’m doing alright, or what I’ve been working on. Have I been writing? I’m trying to. Below, I go into personal matters. If you want to stop here, you can. I won’t fault you none.

Have I been doing ok? Yes and no.

Check it out over here! Leeroy wrote the whole thing, I just did a quick write up for the epilogue. Be ready to continue another (not fallout equestria) apocalypse story!

No art right now, I am way to tired to find something appropriate.

Whew...

There is a lot of work going on.. A lot of people going on vacation, other sick, and I am working almost all by my lonesome in the burning sun... At least the money is good.

Starfleet Season 8 may be almost done, but... Oh, boy, do I have a PILEUP a mile wide behind me.

-Darkness of Dimensions (That's a must tend-to. It's been on Hiatus long enough)

-I have to keep my Beast Boys Magic Voices series going on Youtube

-I still have my Teen Titan idol coming up on March 8. Gotta get the pics done, and the vids made and ready to load (Work like this requires you start months in advance... which I did.)

Things ain't lookin' too good at the moment.

Now, first of all, as I already mentioned before (or should have mentioned at least) I consider a current version of the story a draft. As my writing skills are mediocre at their best, my intent and it's execution may just turn to be a completely different things. So, I'm going to do a slightly controversial thing here. I'm going to describe at least some of my intend behind the certain points of the story. As I'm obviously avoiding significant spoilers here, but I think that a more direct

I like writing all kinds of things. But most of all I like writing about ponies kissing.

That is all.

And other things. Dirty, nasty things that uncontrolled kissing can lead to.

If for whatever reason you're reading this before reading the first fourteen(!) parts of this blog series, then you might want to go back and start from the beginning. Though, for your own sake, you might be better off leaving well alone.

It's done, folks! All fourteen chapters of One Extraordinary Time have been read, documented, and thoroughly despised.

I guess after posting a gazillion times that I will write one, I'm probably deceiving you again......... but mark my words! I will be doing nothing but writing tomorrow! writing what? who knows, but hopefully something good eh?

Greetings!

Sorry for the delay everybody! I had hoped to get the chapter out today, but I've been sick and have not come as far as I would have liked to.

Anyway!

The next chapter will be out tomorrow, so not a terrible long delay. I hope you guys will enjoy it.

My new science fiction novel "Virtual Horizon" is out! It's about people who "upload" to a virtual game world under the care of a possibly too-nice AI, and about those who don't take her up on the offer. Obviously inspired by "Friendship Is Optimal".
