This will be really quick, as I'm at Bronycon and I'm in a short lull between programming events I want to attend. If you didn't get an update (and nobody ever seems to get updates about my fiction) you haven't heard that I've finally published a new chapter of Quizzical Greystone and the Basements of Doom. It's only ten months late, give or take a week. I hope you enjoy it, it has villains monologue's and stuff. More details when I have more time, and here's hoping I can keep some momentum

Okay, first off, I said chapter 18 would be out this week. That was said without taking into account that this week would be short. Because of the holiday it would be only 4 days instead of 5. I loose one of those to snow removal. I could finish the chapter in my remaining three days, but I would have to ignore the other convention I'm going to this weekend. This is a LARP con, and I'm in 4 mini-games and I have to work on (study character sheets, prepare minimal costuming, stuff...).

I'm a little late with this, it has been the Year of the Monkey all week already. Oh, well. I also missed Quiz's birthday again (it was Tuesday. She had a white cake, lightly frosted).

The workshop/panel I bid for the Ponycon convention has been accepted. link.

I am terrified.

I'm not worried so much about the presentation its self. I've been practicing it for months, and it's similar to presentations I've done before at local libraries. I'm pretty confident about that.

Happy holidays to you and your's.

If you'll take a look at my avatar you'll see that Quiz has her Santa hat, and you should too! When she ordered her hat Diamond Tiara altered the order form when Quiz was looking away and added a couple of zeros to the size (reformed villain or not, it's hard to give up your hobbies, and tormenting Quiz is DT's favorite hobby).

So, I've published chapter 17. No one has complained, so I guess you all got notifications. Also, two chapters in a row without seriously endangering Quiz's life - and this hasn't bored any of you. Hmmm. So... I don't need to begin the next chapter with an explosion? Oh, good, because I haven't given the Ambush Raiders anything combustible yet. I think I've done all the big reveals... except for the identity of Bowser's mysterious customer, oh, and what exactly has been calling "Ooogie,

Many of you did not get any alerts that there was a new chapter. Sorry about that. However, Basements of Doom did spend a good long time on the front page last night. The glitch that lets all my updates get into the feature box seems to be even more broken than before. This chapter is a little more personal and rather less exciting than recent chapters (Quiz needed the break, and sometimes I am merciful). Her life isn't in danger until the very end this time.

When "Maud Pie" came out I was inundated with messages about how "OMG, you have to see this, Maude is just like Quiz!!!" To this day I have readers who cannot be talked out of the notion that MLP:FIM stole my OC.

Nothing of the kind happened after "Fences Amended" came out. So, why does Moon Dancer remind none of you of Quiz?

It looks as if you all got the alert this time, but I'll announce it anyway. Chapter 15 went up last night. This is by far the longest chapter I have even written. It's about twice my usual chapter length, and actually longer than all my one shot stories.
