Crash lands into fimfic.

_{Yo, what up?}

I am not dead. But holy crap I did not want 2023 to be equal parts The Sunset Tree and Transcendental Youth albums by the Mountain Goats. But they were, life was A LOT^TM, but I made it through.

Speak Chapter 22 coming Friday to a Fimfic Near You.

DEAR GOD I AM GOING TO MAKE SURE IT'S NOT A YEAR BETWEEN UPDATES THIS TIME I SWEAR

Shows up Sleep Deprived, Over caffeinated, over stressed, and a year late

What's up bitches, I brought HORSEWORDS. 13.5k of them, pre-editing to be exact

Speak chapter 22 is going off to Bro and RoMS. All 3 of us are presently gestures towards her opening line of this blog, so it may be a bit, but hopefully by mid April I can get it out to you all!

Hey all!

Sorry for the comm silence the last few day-...wee-no, Months? Months? Decades? Time allegedly passed between 2019 and 2021 and I'm still not sure how long it actually was.

Coming on Thursday, the 21st of May!

So Speak is not dead, work has just eaten my life! While I do have a job that is often on call, I have a hard time finding the mental RAM to be able to write when a part of me is stressing about whether or not the phone is going to ring with someone having the worst day of their life so far. While things have calmed down considerably with CoVid-19 going around, it's slowed down the number of calls I get, but the stress remains.

So due to the fact that Speak has gotten rather... long, I figured now would be a good time to post a Dramatis Personae. I will be updating it periodically as more information is revealed about characters, new characters are added, etc.

Sorry this took so long everyone! I've had a busy few months the past three months, and between travelling, life changes involving Bubblegum moving out, and hosting Novel Idea for a week kinda set me back with where I wanted to be with writing. But, hopefully it's worth it! Chapter 20 so far has over 13.5k words, and usually revisions add more to it. It spans almost 40 pages on my gdoc, and I hope that we're able to get it edited and out ASAP!

I was going to post this Monday night but I forgot...

Hey all!

So Speak X.3 has gone to the editors, and I am planning on posting it on Friday of this week. As a bonus, I also have a little story called "We Were Bunnies" that should be ready for human consumption on Saturday. It's... not FOE related, but was a cute little fluff piece that I had fun writing.

Thanks for being awesome readers!

The folks on the Heartmender HQ discord server requested I change my profile picture to this. But I'm too attached to the smol, diabetes inducing picture of Heartshine, so it's going in a blog instead.

Multiple readers in PMs and on discord: I want to see what you can do with horror!
Me: But I don't like horror!
Readers: Please!?
Me: Fine
Writes 18
Readers: No wait stop no what are you doing!?

Hey folks!

Bronode, RoMS, and I have been working super hard to get this chapter done. I had it completed a few weeks ago, then real life decided to completely eat up all of our collective freetime. So we've been editing 18 piecemeal, but I plan on having it finalized by Monday. Sorry for the long wait!

Speak chapter 18 is with the editors! Yay!

So... folks have been asking about why the most recent chapter - soon to be chapters - are numbered as X.something. Originally, I had this grand, sweeping idea of writing chapter 18 in 8 subchapters for... reasons that will be revealed when I finally post chapter 18. However, after completing 2 of the sub-chapters, and starting a 3rd... and asking for help from my editor, Somber, and my roommate, who prereads for me and was the creator of Bubblegum... I realised I had bitten off way more than I

Now I am two - myself, and this other you call 'my lady'. For she is here as truly as I am now, though once she was only a veil over me. She walks in the castle, she dresses herself, she takes her meals, and she thinks her own thoughts. If she has no power to heal, or to quiet, still she has another magic. - from Peter S. Beagle's The Last Unicorn

Have you seen this story in the feature box? It's called "A Thousand Words of Noise". It's one of Monochromatic's newest stories, and to be honest, one of her extremely important ones.

Hey everyone!

So after 2 month's worth of quiet from me, I am happy to announce that 18.1 is going to the editors.

Yes, you read that, 18.1!

For reasons that will become clear once the series of chapters are posted, 18 is being broken up into a few different sections. Luckily, I've also been working on completing these sections concurrently, so that I'll be able to post them as soon as the editors are done with them!

How many are there? Well... we'll see!

This is a song with the same four chords
I use most of the time
When I've got something on my mind
And I don't want to squander the moment
Trying to come up with a better way
To say what I want to say - "You Were Cool" by The Mountain Goats
