Progress has officially started today on Chapter Five for Tales from a Double Date. Alas, work is likely to make things difficult for further progress, at least until next week. Because I requested Sunday off in anticipation of needing the time to recover from my convention (as well as drive home), I have to go in this coming Saturday. Six straight days at work...again...

I'll live, however.

So it's recently been announced that IDW will be bringing the ongoing My Little Pony series to an end after one hundred and two issues. They'll still be producing MLP content, including a crossover series between G4 and G1, but the mainline series is almost at an end.

The comics have had their ups and downs, I'll be the first to admit, and I'm glad to see an endpoint come from a storytelling perspective, but I will be sad to see the storyline end.

So I'm back from my convention. I had fun, for the most part, but now I have to deal with the aftermath.

I've got photos to post online, but can't post them immediately because I have work to get to. And that's ignoring all the usual at-home headaches, plus the chance that FedEx screwed up a delivery. Not fun.

EDIT: FedEx didn't screw up the delivery! Yay! But I still have to deal with the rest of my bullshit. Boo.

Chapter Four for Tales from a Double Date is at the point where I'm happy to declare it finished and ready for release. Said release will, in spite of my work schedule for next week, come a week from Saturday.

I've got my fingers crossed that I'll have a little bit down for Chapter Five by the time said release occurs, but time will tell as it always does.

Tales From A Double Date continues to be a little more difficult to get put down than I'd like. I'm getting it done, a little bit here and there, and I still think that I'll get the next chapter done before its planned release date, but it's still harder than I'd like it to be.

June 23rd. July 31st. August 28th. September 25th. October 30th. November 15th. December 25th.

I'm planning on having something related to the Quiververse up on each of those dates. Exactly what remains in flux, but I'm optimistic that the first three will be the remaining installments for Tales from a Double Date.

Cross your fingers for productivity over the course of my vacation time, folks.

I really like my vacation time. I'm afraid that today hasn't been quite as productive as yesterday was on the writing front - I ended up finishing off my viewing of WandaVision on Disney+ today - but more at least is getting done, and I find myself increasingly optimistic that I'll get that next chapter out this month.

Also, WandaVision is damn good. Can't wait to start on The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.

I survived a tumultuous week at work. My vacation officially started today, and due to a combination of assorted factors, today was a very good, very productive day. I even got some writing done! Might even get more done before the day's over.

I needed this.

What I said in my last blog post about me going into work on my day off? Well, it got worse.

I woke up this morning, sat down at my PC to eat my breakfast and browse some websites, and then my phone rings. It's work, and they want me in right that second. I don't get in for another hour or so, and thankfully I'm able to keep things under control, but stuff still goes screwy due to my coworkers making mistakes and other departments making things even worse.

Well, work decided to screw me over. It screwed my entire department over, but still.
