and climb curtains
and shes afraid of thunder

Ah, Valentine's Day. A day for spending lovey-dovey time with the love of your life... or, if you're like me, staring at a laptop screen wondering where it all went wrong.
Anyway, in the spirit of Valentine's Day, it's time I asked you all a question. A question that has been in this fandom for nearly half a decade.
Gay horse?
Or lesbian horse?
Well, that's one more year done with.
I'm not really one for celebrating New Year's. Mostly because I'd rather sleep and the stupid fireworks prevent that. When I get elected into government, mark my words I'll...!!!
But I did make a resolution!
It is, to post one of the many stories I've been writing on these last 2 years!
So, first off, I'm throwing Pawn into a Hiatus.
I've made some... really bad mistakes with that one, and it'll take some time to fix it. Because of it, I'm suffering a little bit of a motovation block with it.
But, for the good news, I've posted a new fic!
Heatbeats of Iron, maximum 4 chapters, minimum 2, most likely 3 chapters.
I'm planning on posting the next chapter by monday next week. (22/10, Australian)
Progress! :D
Howdy, y'all.
With the next chapter of Trip the Light Scholastic nearing completion, I've decided that I want to take this project a bit more seriously. It originally started as a side project while I worked on other stories in the same universe, but it has come to take up the majority of my time and attention. I'm really happy with how it's turned out so far, but I want to make it the best it can be.
Hmmm.
It's past midnight (in my timezone).
Which means I'm officially 21 now.
(THERE ARE SELFIES OF ME BEING HANDSOME BUT IN A CASUAL, UNINTERESTED WAY UNDER THE CUT)
I'm about half way through chapter 4, so expect to see that soon(ish).
And remember, there is a competition in chapter 3. The prize is an OC cameo in both my fic, and the fic 'Monster is, as Monster does. (more info in chapter 3)
...
That is all.
War of Two worlds is hereby canceled.
I am obviously not a competent enough author to write such an ambitious project. So I hereby declare War of Two Worlds canceled until I improve my craft. I'll keep it up on my page for the few that did like it. But it is canceled until I reboot it once I am ready.
My deepest apologies.
Is indifference really the opposite of love?
Is apathy truly what's left after a blaze of passion consumes everything? Cold is only the absence of heat. So, is this...crevice in my chest where a heart used to be, the ashes of my emotions? Is this the fabled chill of indifference?
Oh, turn some lights on and lighten up. I'm only half kidding. Nihilism is only a Debbie Downer when you want it to be. I'm sure Nietzsche would be somewhat proud, despite not being a Nihilist, himself.
I actually have a fic waiting in the moderation pipeline. I wouldn't expect greatness, but I'm proud of it. It's just a short little humor piece.
So, look out for it sometime? I guess.
But none I'll be posting tonight. Probably.
I believe it's magic(magic)
I spent this week on a residential course on Popular Science Writing, which has left me bubbling with enthusiasm for putting together my own book proposal. I cycled into town this morning to visit the science section of my local bookstore and get some reference material. While there, I also decided to stop off at my college just to see if I had any mail—only to find the entire street had been closed off and was swarming with security trying to hold back a dense crowd, holding their phones high
A little something for all of you today! (Even if the links are a little dusty from their time in storage.)
If you want to see my deranged ideas:
Horizon is an evil genius — in which Themaskedferret shares the drink menu from the author party at Babscon, along with the drink descriptions that I wrote to go with the bad-writing-trope names.
Because apparently I think I'm somebunny skilled enough to give advice or some such
Alright bitches this is the closest you're getting to a face reveal. I just wish I can show you how fabulous I look this morning. I think it's from all the stress relieving I did recently.
Here is the link to the game.
I'll leave it up for an hour.
