Midwest Brony. Really appreciate critiques, especially if you catch grammatical errors. I'm far more used to prose and poetry than narrative, so any advice, hate mail, etc. is appreciated.

Lots of stuff I should discuss... · 11:26pm May 11th, 2013

So yeah, I'm aware I haven't been very active in fanfic for quite a while. There's several explanations for this, but it really comes down to time. My job has been working me 70 hours a week and I'm too stressed to sit down and write in my free time. On a good note, I will be leaving this job soon and starting a new one mid-June, but this new job will be very time consuming, but far more rewarding than what I do now. My hooves have been equally busy in my free time with other things. There was

A Public Apology to Purple Tinker, milesprower06, and the Brony Fandom · 11:27pm Apr 19th, 2013

tl;dr : I’m sorry the fandom is in an uproar because of my actions.

I truly loathe that I am in this position right now, but I feel my hand has been forced, and I must make a public statement about a bit of uproar in the fandom that while I had no direct involvement, I still feel somewhat responsible for causing.

Semblance of Normalcy · 4:48pm Mar 28th, 2013

Well, the last three months have been hell, but I'm finally returning to 4 day, 40 hour work weeks. Which means spare time. And no distractions, because I'm also single again. Maybe I can finally get some writing done.

For now though, I'm gonna finally catch up on my read update list and gotta organize a meetup next weekend. Taking the local bronies downtown Chicago to see Hey Ocean (DRINK CIDER LEARN NOTHING)

Thanks for your patience · 11:35am Mar 12th, 2013

The last two days have been my first chance in weeks to get some writing done.
Unfortunately, I spent both days in bed, sick as a dog...
I have the rest of Gravity planned out, just need the time to writie it. Soon I'll be done training employees and back to four day, 50 hour work weeks instead of my current five day, 65+ hours.

I Should Be Dead Right Now (LPU Relief Auctions!!!) · 5:30pm Feb 27th, 2013

So... The last 24 hours have put a lot of my life into perspective. As the blog title implies, I really should be six feet under right now, and it's a small miracle I'm alive.

Radio Interview Tomorrow · 1:16pm Feb 19th, 2013

Hey bronies and pegasisters.
My pals at Radio Is Magic are having me on as a guest tomorrow night. 6-8 central US time.
This will be my second appearance on their show. The last one was a blast and very random.
I like random

Oh and the season finale sucked. Now I'm eating my words...

Well... That Escalated Quickly · 11:47am Feb 14th, 2013

I gotta say, I'm quite surprised by the warm response to HMPDITTCALB (gesundheit!). Seriously, it was a rather weak draft before I talked it over with Steel and Kar. The original ending was garbage (I had written a story that was 4k words longer than I expected and realized I had no idea how to end it). But I'm very happy to see the response and thanks for kind words and I'm glad it made people laugh. There's enough craziness in this fandom, and sometimes you just gotta smile and laugh.

New Story in the Queue · 8:33pm Feb 8th, 2013

Well, it's not Gravity, but it's something. After watching the fandom go into a meltdown over the announcement of AliTwi, I just felt the need to write something about it.

Gravity's next canto is about half complete, and sitting at 6.7k words. In the meantime, I hope y'all enjoy How Many Princesses Does It Take To Change A Light Bulb?

Progress and Pearls · 1:22am Jan 26th, 2013

Gravity's next canto is about a third done. 4.5k words at the moment. It would be more by now, but there have been complications going on resulting in me working 70 hour weeks with only one day off. I'm picking up the slack basically, and it makes it very hard to find the time to write. Especially when I am also supposed to run meetups, an active fan forum, and have a woman to make time for. I know I'm just making excuses. I want to get something written as much as people want to read it. I

Just a bit of fanservice · 2:46am Jan 6th, 2013

Well I'm way behind on not just writing, but letting people know I'm still active. It's been difficult to remain active in the community recently mostly due the charity project and several personal life events.

The good news is, the charity is over. Complete. Package was packed shipped and received earlier this week. Thanks again to all out there who helped me with it in any way. The Havivys are very appreciative of your love and friendship.
