The reaction to Succubus has been overwhelmingly positive, and more than I could have hoped for. I don't usually have one of my stories get that many favorites in such a small amount of time.

It's quite flattering and humbling, really. And it's giving me the courage to do something that I've always kind of wanted to, but haven't really worked up the nerve to before now...

So a lloooong time ago, I put up this blog post. It has taken way longer than it has any right to, but I've finally followed through with the publication of my latest story, "Succubus."

Warning: It's Sad.

The semifinal! Read it, and tell me what a terrible writer I am for dealing with various emotional and mental stresses in the characters in a long-term, healthy way!

No? Well, it feels like it, sometimes, with the responses I got from the last one...

Seems to have gotten a proofreader for the final stretch. Will update either tomorrow or Saturday depending on how the day goes.

Operation: Patriotism :

I got my proofreader situation fixed now, and we are back on still way behind schedule back in business! Go see The Color of Royalty, Chapter 8, Fight For Your Mare, in local theaters* now. Where the ponies try to treat the situation like adults.

They've been struggling to do exactly that the entire story, but I think they're starting to make progress with this one.

*relatively speaking, on a very broad term of what a "theater" is.

What is it? Well, you'll just have to click this link to see, but I'll give you a hint; it has to do with a certain book I've been talking about. You might have heard it. You might have not.

I mean, it's not like I have it plastered all over my user page and short bio, do I? Ha ha ha ha ha ha... ha... ha...

Can you tell I'm really excited about this book?

And I thought I was past this point of inconsistent updates.

Related to the above, this story seems to be in need of a new/additional proofreader? I don't know why I seem to keep running out of them. I don't bite!

You know those stories I keep threatening to have restored? Well, it finally happened today, thanks to the glorious god we call "Meeester" when he deigns to grace our presence with a mortal form.

Gratitude expressed as hero worship aside, the stores in question are "FIM:P Bonus Stories," now given the much more creative title "Tales From An Iotaverse," and "Operation: Patriotism," which ... has a lot of history behind it, I'll say.
