I'm back from the dead again and this time with a new one-shot story.

It's about one of the many times a young foal named Pareidolia gets left behind for her mother while doing some shopping due to the mare's forgetfulness. However, when Artemis does notice Pareidolia isn't with her, she's ready to raise hell to find her. Thankfully, she doesn't have to. This time, at least.

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new and unrequested series on learning about writing. I've blogged about bits of writing before, but here I want to go from the ground up and do something a little bit more comprehensive.

I also really wish I didn't delete the Girl I Left Behind Me one.
Anyway, as usual I hope you enjoy and if you're interested in being an editor, let me know. Thanks!

If you need a little bit of inspiration, check this video out:

It reminded me of why I do this. Not for the feature box, but because you all enjoy what I do. So from me, I want to thank all of you for supporting me and my writing. It's not the greatest work of literature by far, but I appreciate your support nonetheless.

See you all soon,

So, yeah. I decided to keep going. We're not done yet. I've got more plans, but there are some things I wanted to talk about beforehand.
