Good news: I'm Not Dead! · 1:03am March 25th

And neither is Student 32!

Yet.

Shut it! Anyway, I apologize for taking so long, but the last chapter of this mini-arc is on its way to my editor. I'm afraid this latest batch of 3 chapters is rather short. But I have learned an extremely valuable lesson from these months of struggle.

I. CANNOT. WRITE. SLICE OF LIFE. DOWNTIME. FLUFF!!!

Random Thoughts: Thanks for All the Fish · 12:27am Dec 11th, 2023

First things first, progress is good on the next arc of Student 32. It'll be a casual, slice-of-life style arc as we get ready for the source manga's big Genre Shift.

But that's not what I'm here to talk about. Every few months I go through my Read Later and Tracking folders and do some "Spring cleaning," taking out all of the stories that no longer hold my interest and/or have stopped updating. I did a round of this today and reached a sobering realization.

Hello boys! I'm baaaaaaaaack! · 6:41pm Aug 30th, 2023

About freaking time.

Hai hai, my bad.

Anyway, I'm happy to report that the last section of the Mahorafest arc is complete and off to my editor. Up next is a sort of transition arc before we head off to the Magical World. I've had a lot of time (you can say that again) to think of how I want to handle those arcs, and I'm happy to report that my ideas for Mundus Magicas are far better-formed than my ideas for Mahorafest ever were.

New Chapter: Don't Panic · 11:30pm Mar 2nd, 2022

Yes, I published a new chapter of The Undying Angel.

No, this does not mean that I have taken significant time away from Student 32: Sunset Shimmer or shifted focus. That is still my primary project. This chapter just came together recently, so I decided to publish.

And by "came together recently," he means "was sitting around mostly finished until he put in the last half-scene while bored today."

Random Thoughts: Melancholy · 1:49am Sep 7th, 2021

*Disclaimer, this post has nothing to do with my fanfics. Just needed somewhere to vent my thoughts.

You know what the most annoying emotion to deal with is? Melancholy.
Sorrow lets you have a good, cathartic cry.
Anger lets you vent through loud, fast music.
Fear goes away once you're done with whatever was making you scared.
But melancholy...

Family Vacation · 4:20am Aug 14th, 2021

Howdy, y'all.

Unfortunately for my writing schedule-

He says, as if that's a thing he has.

-I am now on vacation with my family in Oregon. We will be hiking the Timberline Trail around Mt Hood over 5 days and spending the following week at Crater Lake, the Oregon Coast, etc. I've nearly finished the current set of chapters and I might write some more during downtime, but y'all should expect my newest chapters no sooner than September.

Arc 5: Students of Evangeline, is done!

About time, too.

Quiet, you.

Arc 6 is going to be a bit of a wait-

-he says as if the others weren't-

-BECAUSE up next is the massive juggernaut that is Mahorafest!

Two Down, One to Go! · 4:54am Nov 19th, 2020

There's just one section left in Arc 5 before we start getting into Mahorafest!

This last part is largely combat, and he's usually good at writing that quickly. Hopefully *cough* not likely *cough* he'll have it done before the end of the year.

Love you too, Show. *rolls eyes* But yes, I hope to have Arc 5 finished up in the next month and a half.

Until then, I'm Show Stopper and I'm Show Stopper.

And then he writes 3 chapters and sends them to his editor in less than 24 hours. Dude's a freak.
