Good morning, folks. Some of you may be familiar with my series of Thirty Minute collection of stories. Among those of you, some may be aware that the source of all 183 short stories that I have published in that series has been the Tumblr group, Thirty Minute Ponies.

So... I thought I understood how the three update slots in the Featured Box worked. I thought that whenever a story that met a certain minimum threshold of likes and favs got a new chapter, it would go in one of those update slots.

I tell you, the last few weeks have been pretty darn great for folks like me who subscribe to the Most Delicious Ship.

So, the handful of you that are following my Thirty Minutes series probably noticed that I stopped updating Thirty Minutes Shy rather abruptly, with very little explanation. Well, I am here to provide that explanation now, and that is that there was stuff. And reasons.

Attention, slaves loyal readers!

This is your glorious leader, Esle. I am pleased that you have chosen to surrender your foolish notions of 'free will' and instead elected to click the 'follow' button next to my name.
