Just in case you missed it, there was a quick news post that went up just before this post. Be sure to check it out! It's got all the news you need to know!
I finally got around to converting the bigger video of my last trip to Lujan Zoo, and Allan the lion. His two sons were in there as well. You can see that Allan really likes being petted. At one point he shifted to lean against me and I could really feel how massive he was. Such a big snuggly lion!

Hey readers. I’m still in the grips of dealing with the devastation visited upon both my family and my hometown (and for a terrifying read of what the community has undergone, see this news story)
Welcome back, readers, to a Monday post that’s actually on a Monday! BaBW is back to its proper day once more! So, to commemorate the occasion, what’s today’s writing topic?
Puzzle pieces.
I can see the curious, questioning looks even from here in the past, so let me explain a little further.
Welcome back to another Being a Better Writer post! I've got a lot to do today (tax season) so I'm diving right into this one as quickly as possible. Today's topic comes from the request post I made several months ago (which I've been slowly digging through ever since), but it's a topic that I've heard brought up before in writing panels as well as in other places. And it's a good question, one every author will either probably consider or run afoul of in the course of their
Mike: No, fuck you, I'm not dead. Everyone assumed that I'd suddenly be shitting out chapters when I said I'd write for hat. Well, Spoilers! I'm not a fast writer. I do't just magically get an idea, put it on paper and publish it as a chapter. I also do other things. I work a full time job now, I do editing for other stories, I play the fuck out of rocket league (not fallout 4 anymore. I beat the 4 story lines and am too lazy for side quest.) I also sit and talk to a bunch of
Hey hey! I'm almost back to full health, and it's been far too long since a Classic Being a Better Writer post went up on the site!
New? Unsure what those words meant? Let me clarify! Being a Better Writer is a writing feature that's been running for almost four years now, posting every Monday. These posts cover a wide, vast assortment of topics, from subplots to mystery to dialogue, all with the goal of helping writers young and old improve their craft.
This post can also be found at my website, Unusual Things. The superior reading experience is found there.
I apologize for the lateness of this post. Despite not having work at my part-time due to a knee injury yesterday, this post ended up so long (my longest yet) that it wasn’t done in time to post.
I have a smidge of good news to report. I have begun work on putting together my first official story for this site. It's nothing fancy or mind-blowing, just a comedy story with Pinkie Pie, but the first chapter is more-or-less complete and the second chapter is (hopefully) to be finished soon as well.
But hey, I think it's still worth celebrating. After only three years I'm finally around to posting actual story stuff and not just reviews. XD
May I present;
Pharynx unleashing his inner bookworm!
I drew two versions of this.
Here's one with Phar and Celly:
And here's one with Thorax in it too:
As a mediocre writer I constantly feel an impending sense of doom/the thought of ruining a story my fans like hurts.
So that is why I want to ask everyone who is PM’ing me for the next chapter of one of my stories to stop I have revived 3 over the last month.
And you know who you are but i puts strain on me as a writer and makes my work less then it usually is so I would prefer not to have PM’s.
Comments on the stories are fine but I’m against the PM’s Bugging me
As you might have noticed if you're one of those who waits on the morning of, today's post is a little late. My apologies. I wasn't quite as quick to arise this morning because I was catching up on sleep. And I was doing that because the injury I gave myself on Saturday didn't let me sleep that well that same night. Turns out, cracked ribs can be quite the pain. Who knew, aside from those with cracked ribs.
Don't forget, Unusual Events is out!

Well, this should be a short one. That, or today we'll be learning from the mentality of "Those who don't, teach."
Today's post is going to be a shorter one, as I still have more near-final proofreading to get done by tomorrow on Unusual Events, and I need to get to work on that to make sure I reach the January 19th upload date (after which you'll be able to pre-order it, huzzah!).
You ever watch an old movie? Not like black-and-white, pre-talkies era, but forties or fifties-era flick. You know, color, but early color, surprisingly regular inclination to break into song and dance?
It was a thing.
Anyway, if you've ever sat down and watched one of these older flicks with friends, family, or even on your lonesome, it's likely that at some point during the runtime of the film, a comment similar to the following was made:
Welcome back! And welcome newcomers! I've been getting a lot of hits from Reddit's r/writing, so those of you that are new, welcome to Unusual Things!
So this last weekend I came to a conclusion. I'd spent the week writing, as usual, working on the first draft of Jungle (you know, that sequel to that Colony book everyone keeps talking about), but between being sick and low on sleep (said sickness really, really wanted me to sleep), something just wasn't clicking. Something about the chapter I was working on, even when I finished it, felt off.
