Several tiles of our house just came off in the wind! Serious damage has been dealt to our extension roof and a glass window has been smashed to hell. Photo below taken from my bedroom window.

One of the slab tiles nearly killed my mom and her puppy chihuahua! Went downstairs and found her shaking to hell, the poor soul. Look at that gaping hole in the plastic roof! Those tiles are not light, people - let that give you an idea how strong the winds are lately around my place!

So, sitting here, half asleep as it were, I was able to complete the next chapter of 'A Cold Wind Blows'. Thursday night or Friday the chapter should enter and exit my revision and editing, and hopefully be up by Sunday.

Just wanted to give everyone a little heads up on the progress since I've been incredibly slow with this one. I hope that the wait will be worth it for you all.

So... Jinxy (my brother) came over Wednesday night and he wound up taking Fiance and I to Baker's Square for dinner... T'was good times! Then we ran back up to my parents' house so he could get some last minute stuff, and so I could try to find some formal wear to potentially go to the Grand Galloping Gala tomorrow night... Wound up finding a few things that could work... My only hope is that the shoes I brought will be acceptable... I mean... I have a pair with me that I

The post-con update will need to wait until later... but needless to say, I had an AMAZING time... Many thanks to Zoljen for providing sleeping space, and also acquiring a few goodies for me while also getting things for Sylvian to torment him with hints of until he gets the package... It was also awesome meeting Nighty, Calm, Kestrel and Changeling32... All awesome peeps! And now I'm super stoked for June to come around because Calm said he'd probably come to MLP-MSP!

Just thought I'd give you guys a bit of a teaser about some of the stuff I've put together for future Rainbow Dash content. This is also me showing proof I'm not just flinging empty promises at you when I say I'm working on the story. This takes place in the second story, The Legacy of Erised.

Back in 2019, Air New Zealand offered to fly George R R Martin out to New Zealand so he would finally finish writing his book:

George R. R. Martin kindly declined the offer, but noted in his blog post about it:

I know it's been, checks notes, 7^1/2 MONTHS!?

I think its time for a couple updates then, huh?

First of all, IRL:

Sometimes I need to take a break from writing, and I can't ignore the siren-call of my Intuos graphics tablet. So, because it rained here on Sunday, have a portrait of Sly, from The Wind Thief:

That is all.

Something you won't see in many of my stories - a character death. Potentially, in this case, depending on which option you choose.

Hello everyone! I just wanted to give an update on an upcoming story that is currently within my later drafting phase, it’s currently planned to be a larger short story / smaller novelette, looking around 7-10k words. It’s a lot more slow, akin to Phantoms and has been a great project so far. ^^

Merry Christmas to all about, I'll make this a short little update post.

The holidays were a lot busier than I originally thought, so I haven't been able to refine and add to what I would deem acceptable just yet. I'll also be taking a small trip back to my old home city for my mom's birthday, so I won't be able to write then.

In between the end of the holidays and the trip I'll do my best, but I'm looking at the releases for some time in February most likely for both Ch1 & 2.

Phantoms has been out for about a week now and I'd just like to give a warm thanks to my friends who helped me out with it! Thanks so much guys! It's officially reached more likes than Midnight of Lies and has refreshed my creativity now that I've been able to finish something more than a chapter. With that, I'm going to give a little

Yeah, that's right, look at that caps lock title. It's garish and eye-catching. You're totally gonna look at this now. So why am I making one of these which I basically never do? Well, that's because I did a thing.

Yes. A thing. Very descriptive.

But first, if you've ever read anything I've written, you probably know I do a bunch of stuff like:

*Write cool OCs
*Give the Crystal Empire a distinct culture
*WORLD BUILD

I mean, spending the day in the Popular box isn't bad, and I know plenty of stories never pick up 200 views, but... I think my one-shot comedies have given me unreasonable expectations of success.

I mean, granted, "Legacy" is a really vague title, and there's no cover art...
