November was a good month for me, both for writing and in meat space.
Writing-wise, I put out three stories last month. This is a new record for me. Seriously, I'm more inconsistent than quality in a DC superhero movie.
The last story I posted in November did... Well, astoundingly well. I expected to get a few chuckles and then have my story get buried by others of higher quality.
"It was the year of fire..."
"the year of destruction..."
"the year we took back what was ours."
"It was the year of rebirth..."
"the year of great sadness..."
"the year of pain..."
"and the year of joy."
"It was a new age."
"It was the end of history."
"It was the year everything changed."
“The year is 2017.”
“The place… right here.”
I know it hasn't quite been a year since I published the story yet, but then again Twilight has been working on getting Rarity's attention for some time before that already, hasn't she? Either way, I've already put this post off way too long, so let's do this.
Do you love the concepts of the show, the more serious implications of world-building, and the easy libraries to find topics that interest you? Have you ever read a story with an exciting idea that wasted it for a gag? Did you ever see something that would make a fascinating headcanon, if only it was done in a way that played out more seriously? Well, this is the group for you.
It's been almost two months..... I'm very overdue for this. Yes, I am still alive.
I want to apologize for not writing anything for so long, especially to those few who wait for updates of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity". At the beginning of August, I got thrown into a deep depression and found myself unable to do any kind of writing.
I recently crossed the threshold of one thousand followers. Who’da thunk? That’s a grand amount of people who think I’m something special. I guess I’m supposed to have a milestone celebration, right? So here it is: critique me!
Time to weed out some followers. A while ago, it came to my attention that Save MLP has a group here on FIMFiction.net. I checked it out and when I was going through the group's member list, I discovered that some of the members are also followers of mine. And I don't want to have anyone following me or reading my stories who supports this harassment campaign. To be blunt, if you support what Save MLP is doing, you don't deserve to read pony stories and you don't deserve to read my pony
I missed my username too much sob
I've been wanting to try out a new username for a while, so I've gone from Monochromatic to Jupiter XVIII!
Might switch back in a few weeks, but for now, my old username will link to an alternate account where I post stuff I don't want here for one reason or another.
It has on okayish raritwi story, and a really nice unrequited twishy story.
IN WHICH I JUST HIT ANOTHER MILESTONE
My sincerest apologies for making a second blogpost within the space of a day. It's something I don't normally like to do, but sometimes it just works out that way. Anyway, I wanted to say two things in particular, and then more "fun" behind-the-scenes info below the jump.
It is. It really, really is.
I mean, you don't really think about it, do you? We spend so long clicking in and out of stuff where we can see that people have thousands, millions of followers and subscribers, and suddenly a million becomes the new benchmark of excellence. Some channels, you won't even look at them if they've got under a thousand subscribers. Because it all just becomes a number.
I’m rather shocked to find that April had already gone by. I’m seriously having to look at the calendar and wonder what the heck just happened. Then I see my new work classes, some pretty crazy stuff going on behind the scenes in A Study On Chaos Theory, My Kind of Crazy and spending a lot more time with the kids and well…
It’s a miracle I wrote anything this month.
While I haven’t posted a Recommended Story Review set every month, I have been trying to do so, and this set brings me up to #15. This is starting to have an interesting consequence, though. Because these sets are composed entirely of stories that I enjoyed enough to recommend before I started doing reviews, the number of stories I can include in these sets shrinks every blog post.

"It was a new age."

Today I learned that some people won't accept you if you don't like skittles. I also learned that getting slapped in the face with a bag of skittles repeatedly hurts.
Yep.
it's my birthday. Ish. I'm posting this at almost midnight, when it'll technically not be my birthday anymore, but in my defense -- I'm very busy. So here's a BUNCH of short comics! I've been trying to get better at short punchlines, literally just cause it's a fun challenge for myself, and that way I have something to do whenever I am not working on the next Big Comic, which is coming along nicely.
So, here you go. I hope you like them.

Fuck it. Here’s a thesis in two parts that literally nobody will like, ‘cause y’all fucking cowards.
Hey, I actually put out a new story. Some art tempted me to write a bit and I ended up with a fluffy little one shot. I've tagged So Maybe because the two stories are related. Anyway, the story is embedded below so go check it out while you're not-so-regularly scheduled Enemy of Mine update remains in progress.
I am bored and my semester has been over a bit. While I've gotten quite a bit of writing done since then (most of it is unpublished) I'm still kind of distracted. My last two stories roped in a lot of new gremlins. Way more than I've gotten in a while. Also, getting to know the person behind the screen and pen name is something I am admittedly bad at doing. I figured doing another ask-me-anything blog would be a pretty rad thing. If any of y'all have suggestions for things I can blog

Right now, it is a little late for me to be making proper puns, so that is the best I have to offer. I've been typing mostly emails and other purely academic things lately. Though, I wouldn't be blogging without a few things to discuss. I hope that y'all will read on since I do want to do my best to get back in the saddle for... well, pretty much everything in my life. The first thing to get out of the way: I got my laptop back! The new battery is in, and it ended up costing far less than I
