I think it's about time I start throwing some unique words out here for you all to use...

Lycanthropy!!!

Okay, less funny and more frustrating. Still an 'F' weird though. I like those.

Back on topic though: Starlight Over the Forest has a new chapter going up soon... ish. I was going to hammer out the last bits of the chapter but the Blizzard had to ruin my plans with an inconveniently timed update to Overwatch that released a new hero and other features. (I play on PS4. I am a dirty console peasant.)

So really, this is Blizzard's fault that there's a delay.

I'm not gonna say what's been going down across half the world lately, kind of obvious, that and I haven't exactly been active lately... or at all... it's a habit, sorry. Point of this blog, slash rambling, is simple, got something in the works that I thought I'd try.

Crossovers.

In my absence, things have happened that I would love to highlight. I also have some news on writing, in the interest of not being declared dead again.

So.

Every so often, my mind will string together a few words or an idea, and I jot it down to use later.

Later never comes, in my experience.

Instead, I go through my files months later and see a small document with a nondescript (note: I wanted to say indescript, but apparently that's not a word) title and, upon reading it, think a variety of thoughts ranging from, "Hey why can't I be this creative anymore" to "What was this supposed to be in the first place why am I like this?".

Yes, the fact that this blog post is up means that there is no BronyCon Highlight for today.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away...

Jake the Army Guy recently ran another Horse Words Extravaganza contest, and I apparently agreed to review one of the finalists. This of course means two things: a solo post, and a lengthier one than I might otherwise have done. It needs to be special. :)

“Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight.”

Next week is probably going to be the most nerve-wracking and stressful week of my entire life.

WE DID IT, UNIVERSAL MAGIC REACHED 1,000,000 WORDS! LET'S CELEBRATE!...

Splendiferous. You've probably heard the word before, most frequently enunciated by Pinkie Pie, or the local equivalent thereof.

Because of this, you might, at times, want to use it in a story.

Today, I did just that while writing my latest story, a MarbleMac piece which may-or-may-not be coming out soon, depending on how it goes.

However, I discovered something strange while doing so - Word didn't recognize the word as a misspelling.

So I decided, after finishing TOML, that I'd take a look at all my stories and see how many words all my stories add up to, how much I've written over these years. The number surprised me; I've written a total of 826,092 words of story, 775,801 of which are all in the same general story arc (ACTF, ACOF, TOML). Damn, that's a lot.

You've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?

This may be one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.

"To digress for a moment, in the Equestrian language, the term alicorn can refer to any of, first, the thaumatically-active substance making up the core of an alicorn (sense 2) and certain other bony structures; second, the bony spiral horn of a unicorn or alicorn (sense 3); or, third, the rare sub-species of pony manifesting the combined traits of the three major sub-species, notable for possessing thereby the largest alicorns (sense 2) and the largest proportionate quantity of alicorn

If you really think about it, its not that much to write.

Like say... you want to write a story that's 100,000 words long, to some people that is a lot. Like, its enough to keep you busy reading for a couple of days or more, and when you write it out its even longer. Because you have to focus and all of that business.

And really... when you think about it, and I mean really think about it, it isn't that much to write out.

Well, bound 'n gag me and call me 'gimp', it has been six freaking months. Holy mothballs and half-eaten jackets!

I've been away FAR too long, it seems. Well, you know what they say 'bout long absences:

Man oh man, where to begin, where to begin...

So I may have jumped into my first NaNoWriMo a bit enthusiastically.

That being said I hope it works out, I have started an original fiction on the side, and I am working on a pony story just for you guys.

37,000 words.

That is how many words I have put into my new story idea this last 22 days. It isn't even edited yet, so it will probably only get bigger, but still. WOW! I am impressed that I could do this all in such a short time.

And I'm not even done yet. 50,000 is the goal, and by Celestia I am going to get there.

If you're a fan of Never The Final Word, the commentfic anthology I curate, you might have noticed a sad anniversary: yesterday marks one year since it last updated.
