Some among those of you who, for reasons unfathomable to me, have chosen to pay attention to my profile and my stories will have noticed that Binky Pie has, after five years, finally been set to 'Complete'.

Excuse me while I blow the dust off the account.

Today, the renowned author Sir Terry Pratchett died, aged 66. I wish to mention this because, as my dogged/devoted readers of Binky Pie will know, I enjoyed his works and am saddened at his passing.

... As of writing this it has been well over a year since I last wrote a chapter of Binky Pie, and, to my further shame, over three years since I started it! I'm sorry I never got around to finishing it. It's been a constant nagging presence in the back of my head for so long I sort of got used to ignoring it, and life has a way of getting... in the way, as it were.

... As to why I've been rather quiet and why you should care (spoiler: you shouldn't). In short, last year of degree, last term was more hellish on writing time than I thought it would be, and this last term is exams, exams, exams. Once all that's out of the way (16th May), I can dedicate myself to writing more and finishing Binky Pie, which I believe just turned two years old. Which makes me feel old. And slow.

I've finally finished Pony of the Opera, for which I am thankful. I started writing that around July last year, so it's good to finally have it done. To tell the truth, before beginning it, all I had done was watch the film adaptation of Lloyd Webber's musical about ten times.

This chapter of Pony of the Opera has been in the writing for quite a long time, although there was large chunks of nothing between writing. It's been a nightmare to write specifically because of the confrontation,

I got 'tagged' or something. While I ain't gonna humour the notion in its entirety by annoying a further eleven people and forcing them to answer some questions, I'll answer the ones that were sent to me.

Namely...

1. Who is (the) best pony?
Rarity, and Celestia.

2. Why?

Just as an awareness-raising point; I'm currently entering my month of exams, hence the considerable delay in updates on my various stories. The finale to Pony of the Opera is still being penned, and once that's finished I'll be writing the next chapter of Binky Pie.

Whelp, I finally updated Pony of the Opera after five months. I'll try and do the next, final chapter in the coming week, but no promises there. Then it's back to Binky Pie!

Speaking of Binky Pie, two things have come to my attention regarding it. Namely:

I'M GETTING THERE, HONEST

I'm in the middle of exams at the moment, but I'll soon be back to updating. Next up: Pony of the Opera - Act II: Scene II.

In the mean time, I also run an RPG/Writing forum, which blends a choose-your-own style story with RPG style elements in a Sci-Fi setting. I... can't really summarize it that well. Go take a look, and sign up if you're interested!
