Happy National Splash in a Puddle and Splash Your Friends Day!

Which is a kinda odd holiday to have in January . . . up here, all our puddles are frozen. But anyway, on to the blog!

Just promoting a group called Marvel Crossovers & stuff

Have you ever realized something that made you feel stupid, and suddenly unfitting music starts playing in your head? For example: you were looking for your phone but you realize that it's in your hand, and at that moment the fight theme from One Punch Man starts playing.

The survey seemed to work wonderfully. With a solid 75 votes it is a 60/40 percent split with permanent infestation taking the win. To everyone on the lo...not wining side, I do want to let you all know that there is a bit of a consolation. there is a good chance of more flowers being planted with some action therein related. My goal is to have the next chapter written by the end of the week with the story updating next weekend. I do apologize that things have slowed down a bit, the first three

Freakin' hallucinations in the dark. They scare me to death. Fluttershy would call me a wuss.

I just realize I've published 10 stories...

I still have no idea what I'm doing...

First off, I apologize all, but I've done nothing since posting the last chapter.

Well, at least I'm... alive. Pretty sure. Yup, seem to be.

The night I posted I also accomplished one of my other long time goals.

To the West Coast!

I don't normally do this kind of thing 'cause I'm, well, shy, introverted, quiet around people I don't know, withdrawn when in strange surroundings, etc., etc. Buuuuuuuut... Later this week I'm flying out to Portland, Oregon for an uncle's 80th. I'll be around for a few days, and even traveling up to Bend to visit the resting place of a relative from long, long ago.

It has been found! The picture from Quills and Sofas!

Yes, yes, I know I'm very late to the party, but in my honest defense, nobody ever tells me anything. Apparently horizon had it all along! /superfrownyface Well, thanks to an amazingly circuitous series of happenstances, I'm now in the know!

Which makes me so happy! Now I've got proof that I was in the immediate vicinity of G.M. Berrow!

Who doesn't like bonuses?

Shut up, Aaron!

Here's a little doodle I've been working on for a bit now; an imagining of the Summer Sun Festival from the pictures Etherea showed Alex back in chapter 7, part 1.

Personally, I think it would be filled with the cries, threats, and lamentations of deprived readers.

Anyway!

I sat down to write this because I needed to check in, post some things, and make an announcement. I wanted to comment on To Love a Pony and how much I love the idea of a Christmas chapter. Deadlines are good for motivation, and last minute panic is still motivation. (But let's not let it come to that.)

Note: If you take this post to its "logical conclusion" and act on it, I'll be forced to have my story's Luna pay you a visit. Capiche? Good.

One of my long term goals has always been to get my story into The Good HiE List. The exclusivity! The fame! The *cough* fortune! *cough* I even had a folder all picked out, so the only thing still missing was to actually have Alex end up in Equestria. (Spoiler alert...)

So...

I saw a bookshelf addition pop up that made me sad the other day. And then angry, but mostly sad. (Okay, not that sad or angry, but I was suddenly motivated to plagiarize... well, you know.) So what's going on?

It's kinda' long, but it's Monty Python, (sneaky rhyme!) so deal with it. It's good for you!

Happy Birthday Dad.

Here's to a year of College.

Here's to another interview.

To be honest, though. As amazing as my year has been, a lot of people have just been leaving lately for really stupid reasons. Let's not ruin this beautiful day month year by causing completely stupid drama for once please?

Here's some healthy cringe. Even I couldn't finish it.

Eh, close enough.

Well, everyone, I've finally gotten the next chapter of To Love a Pony sketched out. A few days away to visit family up in northern-ish Minnesota backwoods (you don't know how much I've missed decent water pressure!) gave me plenty of time to grind away at the stone. Chapter 11 clocks in right around, oh... 18.8k-ish words. So now all I need to do is...

Revise the entire fucking thing?!

Yes, that's right, I've gone and joined the Dark Side.

No, it's not like you may be thinking. I simply submitted Insecurities to them. And after a bunch of work, it got accepted! Yay!

Amazing how Putricide's lines work so well for my blog posts.

So, unfortunately I'm not going to finish in time for Bronycon. The first nearly-half of the chapter is edited, but that still leaves me with 40 pages-worth to go, and I've got only about 13 hours before I plan to be in Baltimore. It's coming (and M1nty keeps poking me) (Thanks for being cool like that, by the way!), just not as fast as I'd like.

Which, I'll admit, is my fault.
