The When The Bough Breaks video is now live. I suspect this is the last I'll ever work on this story, really. It has, I hope, been worth it. The sound quality is pretty poor, but you can now hear me read this sad story aloud. It was... not easy. But I think it was the right thing to do.

Remember how I said changes would go live with the next chapter? Yeah, me too. I did the minor things today, so all the chapters before “This Is Fine” are done and live. I’ll do the remaining chapters tomorrow, updating them as I go. I realized there’s no point in holding them until the next chapter comes out.
There’s also no real point to this post since the changes were so minor, but fuck you.

Men with Barry White's type of voice are very hard to come by and nowhere is that more revealing than here.
First, to start things off:
I am somehow all of these at the same time as I look over where I am as an author.
Second, let's take a moment to reflect on the best and worst parts of 2018. Or don't. I'm not your dad.
One of the things I frequently harp on my friends who identify themselves as Leftists is the large divide between needing to read 87 books to understand a ten-page Leftist joke, and the fact that there’s often a struggle within academia and in leftist politics to condense information down to people that, quite frankly, don’t have time to read said 87 books. My friend RoMS was asking what I meant by that, as one of the topics I frequently point toward is the difference between the oral culture
Why do people have to be so goddamn childish?
YES! Finally, it is OUT!!! After much trial and error, it is finally out and here! Go read it now! As explained in the author's note for the chapter it was spilt in half so I could get out something sooner rather than later as you all have waited long enough for it. So, this is part one with part two coming soon. Then after that is the finale to the whole story! The end is soon upon us with this story, I hope you've enjoyed it so far and continue to enjoy it further. Now stop reading this and
When the Time comes is not dead I am still working on it. My muse is just a B!$<* and will not let me find piece with the chapter, and working back to school in retail does not help.
More news after the break.
Apparently, I spoke far too soon. I left my new computer on last night to update itself to Windows 10, and this morning when I woke up, it was no longer functional. The case lights will come on, but none of the fans will, the motherboard lights indicate no errors, but nothing happens, and it won't even POST (that is to say, go to the BIOS stuff). I've tried just about
I write a fic where Trixie becomes friends with the Ursa Minor, then two days later this pops up on Derpibooru

After a few moments of rest, Pat Robertson made a huge comeback yesterday, advising a viewer not to let her son attend a haunted house on Halloween and instead to explain to him that the devil is using the holiday to try to “destroy you.”
Yeah, delays suck, I know. And it especially sucks that this has been the 2nd delay in a row. Well, the last one got delayed due to my grandfather's passing, and on that note, I'd like to thank everyone again for their kind words and patience at that time.
This time around, it was a combination of several factors that bogged me down, including work stuff, health stuff, and nondescript personal stuff. Still, I hate delays and I know y'all do too. Sorry about that.
wat.
Sunset Shimmer, canonically, has a drivers' license. This is from the Driving Miss Shimmer EQG short available on the Discovery app.(which I don't have or a link to a version online, sadly.)
1000 words in.
Hopefully I get some schedule where I can write 500-1000 (ideally 1000) words a day. It fits well in my schedule and with it only being 1000 word goal its attainable.
Cause I'm actually feeling this story.
Cause it has that right level of sort of heartfelt stuff and comedy and I like writing this. This is the tone I looked for.
Which is good people seem to like it.
Holidays and really random life has made the "fourteen days between updates" be kind of untenable so I'm going to the whenever its out and I feel at least like I touched on everything I wanted to model. This might make some updates rarer but this is kind of an arc end chapter for example. I feel getting the right balance of life and this takes precedence first and also this already had a lot of things running around in my head.
and it was well worth the 2 hours it took.
There are 3 scenes that really stood out to me. The first is the remote-controlled cars scene, where they were moving through the streets like a freaking buffalo stampede. It was crazy, and awesome, and really inventive. I wish Transformers could do something similar, have an army of Decepticons tear down a road in vehicle form. Now that would be scary.
