It'd be nice if things went smoothly for just a few months. I don't things have been great for me for a longtime now. I'd had hope this year was my year. It is what it is. Just need to buckle down and figure it out.

Update on Rules stuff. · 2:44pm Jun 18th, 2022

Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a nice day today. I wanted to start by saying just how sorry I am for missing my previous deadline. The last few weeks have been pretty busy for me, and I was aiming to upload chapter 8 right before I left on vacation. As you can see, that didn't happen, but I was able to finish up and get it out, albeit a week later then I intended. I want to promise updates in the future will be more regular, but that would depend on life not throwing any more

Long time, no see... · 6:04am May 30th, 2022

Hey y'all. Just writing this to reassure everyone that Rules for Bodyguards isn't dead and apologize for how long this chapter had taken. Inspiration has been scarce these last months, and I've been pretty unhappy with what I've written till recently. As it stands right now I've got a little over 3000 words in the newest chapter, mostly written in the past week. Seeing how I try very hard not to go over 5000 words per chapter I'm fairly confident it will be in my editor's hands this week and

So I was hanging out in a discord today with a couple of friends (namely Eltirions, The Great Scribbly One, and Big Saij) talking about our stories and just chilling. Eltirions had a story hit the

I did a thing... · 4:50am Oct 6th, 2021

... and created a group for Rules for Bodyguards. I plan on making Rules the first of an ongoing series, and this seemed like a good way to gather everything in one place.

Chapter Frequency · 12:24am Oct 6th, 2021

So do Y'all prefer ongoing stories to release chapters at a regular intervals, or whole acts released over a short period of time?

So, I submitted "Rules for Bodyguards" to Equestria Daily... · 7:13pm Oct 3rd, 2021

... and because I am a latecomer to the fandom, I have absolutely no idea how EQD works. I got an email saying they received my submission, so I'm assuming their acceptance/rejection message will come through the same medium, but I really have no idea. Does anybody have any experience with submitting content to EQD? If so, how long can I expect to wait to hear back from them?

No, I'm not dead. Still struggling to write, but I've made a fair bit of progress these last few days. Here's a glimpse at what I hope to release in the next week or so. As usual, this is not the final product.
