Considering Anon-a-Miss · 6:22pm Sep 30th, 2017

As promised, this blog is about the Anon-a-Miss comic and the interpretation I chose to use in Finding a Place. It's been a pretty major headache for me and the main cause of my writer's block over the summer. I suppose that makes it worth examing, especially since it seems to be a somewhat controversial story.

Warning, there will be potential spoilers for those who haven't caught up on the story but I've placed those parts in tags. More after the break!

On Rewrite Completion · 9:53pm Sep 12th, 2017

Greetings! I am pleased, although quite late in announcing that the re-writes of Chapter 1 - 8 of Finding a Place are complete and published. On review, I will probably be writing additional chapters but for now, I'm satisfied with what I've accomplished.

An Overdue Decision · 3:33am Aug 25th, 2017

Greetings everyone! I apologize for my relative silence of late but life's been a bit nuts. I was away on vacation for a while and I've been having a touch of writer's block. I've mostly cleared that way but I've come to a decision that will delay the next update a bit longer. In short, I've decided to prioritize re-writing the first 6 to 8 chapters of Finding a Place before publishing the next chapter. If you'd like to know more about why the explanation is after the break.

On Trailers and Things · 2:35am Jun 29th, 2017

Greetings! I apologize for the extended silence and general lack of updates this past week. RL has slammed me hard and I've been short on time to sit down and write. I'm sort of getting back on track but I'm afraid I don't have an eta on the next chapter release. On the bright side, I have made progress on some outlines but the headaches come from hashing out the details. Given today's event, I thought it might be a good chance to peek at what's been going on in the world of mlp and

Formatting Adjustments · 6:53pm Jun 5th, 2017

I suppose nobody will be surprised that this is a post about the website update. It’s startling and it’s clear there are still some bugs to work out. I’m sure I’ll get used to the new look which does have potential but there are one or two headaches I can see for writers. I have nearly finished Chapter 34 of Finding a Place but publishing will have to wait until I figure out how to fix the formatting.

Moving Onward · 10:17pm Apr 13th, 2017

So as you may or may not have noticed, I'm updating again. It just occurred to me that it might be sensible to update my blog. :twilightsmile: Some details about the status of the various stories after the break.

Conceding Defeat (For Now) · 2:13am Mar 25th, 2017

As much as I am at loathe to admit it, I am not certain when the next chapter of Finding a Place will be done. I was absolutely flattened by illness this weekend and my head just hasn't been in the writing game. While I think I'm on the road to recovery, I'm not 100% certain. With the way the last 6 months have gone, I'm not counting on it. Rest assured it is in slow progress, as are my other stories and I'll publish it as soon as it is done.

State of the Stories · 6:01am Jan 20th, 2017

Greetings all! With my life and energy back to a form of normality, it is high time I posted an update about my writing. For those of you that are seeing this post because you are following my short story Impossible Chance, I just wanted to let you know there is a sequel up in case you missed it.

Everything else is after the break but it should be 99% spoiler free.

A Good Run · 6:22pm Dec 28th, 2016

Seventeen chapters in seventeen weeks is a pretty decent accomplishment for me and I was hoping to keep that up. I suppose this day was bound to happen though. My holiday curse has hit with full force this Christmas and I have barely written anything in the past week. I've been sick in or around Christmas for years now. I get my flu shot and everything but something always takes me down.

100,000 Words . . . · 6:47am Dec 15th, 2016

As of the posting of chapter 16 of ‘Finding a Place’, this story has grown to 100,000 words in length. It’s quite a mark to reach in my honest opinion. You only need 50,000 words for a story to be considered a novel apparently. I’ve got some thoughts about the story past the break to share but they might contain a few minor spoilers. If you’d rather avoid spoilers until you’ve read the story I’d suggest leaving for now.
