First draft of Chapter 12 for What They Expect to Give is at 3,345 words so far. It's not really going in the direction I originally envisioned it, but maybe that's a good thing. I had a kind of manic, slap-stick comedy thing going on in my head, but on paper that might come across as jarring. I'm wondering if what I have so far might already need some slimming, though...like maybe I can still achieve what I'm going for without so many words? It'd give me room to do other things this

So I decided, after finishing TOML, that I'd take a look at all my stories and see how many words all my stories add up to, how much I've written over these years. The number surprised me; I've written a total of 826,092 words of story, 775,801 of which are all in the same general story arc (ACTF, ACOF, TOML). Damn, that's a lot.

I'm so sad~ The story turned even darker as I typed! Yikes! This one probably will have a Gore tag if I go too far with it. I've chosen the 3rd chapter's chapter title. I've summarized the differences between Equestria and MU & FMwS (aka Searching for the Full Moon). It becomes this: Differences Between Fate and Destiny. It's so emotional and horrifying at the same time!

I feel like I'm letting you down. I know what I'm going to write for the next chapter, but I just never seem to write enough each day. It is shaping up to be a long one, well probably not that long, but at least around a 10k word count. I suppose my lack of any actual writing throughout my life is the biggest cause, but I just feel like I should be able to at the very least 1k words down everyday, and not my pitiful 200-500 word count.

A chastity device (male or female model) that only unlocks each day after you've written a set number of words. That would up my word count!

Of course, how useful a motivational tool this would be is entirely dependent on your sex drive.

Also, I normally keep my love of pony and my love of bondage separate, but hot damn KRD draws some good shit. I totally didn't discover this after a search for "chastity" on derpibooru. <---LIES!

That's how many words Chapter 24 for What They Expect to Give currently has. That's about 38 pages. And I'm still not done.

I did KINDA find a natural stopping point about 3-4k words ago, but I'd rather just get it out as one update. I've been kinda wanting to reach this point since I first started this story. Er, I mean, I want to reach all the things I've been planning for this story, but this was a huge milestone I reached. I didn't want to break that up in parts.

I seriously can’t get over how cute Sunny is in this picture. There is no doubt that this guy has an insane amount of talent.

IN WHICH NEW YEAR HAPPENS
A couple days late, but Happy New Year, y'all! Here's to hoping this year is better than last (which was itself better than 2016, a.k.a. the worst year of my life). Anyway, I have things to discuss beyond the jump, if you'll follow me.

I Surrender! Refer to this please.

Try as I might I always seem to work better under pressure. It's not good for me, but there it is.

Good day, folks!

I hope you all have had a lovely Thanksgiving, even if you aren’t in the US. And I hope you’re a good person who didn’t shop on Thanksgiving. Because there’s a special spot in Tartarus for those who shop during Thanksgiving.

...okay, no. Not going to go into a rant about retail. After 12 years, I am free of retail. Have been for two and a half years. But some things… they stay with you.

Didn't get to make any progress on chapter two at all today (˶ ╸▵╺ ˶)
It was insanely busy at the office and I didn't get even a moment to come online. Imagine having to actually do work while you're at work.

So it’s in fashion for authors to do a monthly review of their work. Seen a few folks do it. I think I’m going to start one of my own. It’ll help when I’m feeling discouraged about progress for my stories. In case you're working, the "Takka Takka Takka" is the sound of fingers on a keyboard. I'm 'borrowing' it from Diane Duane's Twitter Account profile pic.

So the news dropped today that a bunch of the folks who did the BronyCon Bookstore in 2019 are revving up for another go. This time, the location is Everfree Northwest in Bellevue, Washington, on August 11-13, with the book shop now being called Twilight's Book Nook.

Phew. What a month. I can’t believe August is already over. Totally insane, right?

Seriously. I need to find a freaking time stop spell just so I can get some stuff done. Always so much to do… and then there’s always something that pulls my attention away from what I should be doing!

Phew. November is finally over.

I guess I should give my final NaNoWriMo report eh?
