I know that I haven't updated any stories in a while, and I'm sorry this whole thing has taken so long, but I've had a huge case of writer's block, and I have an essay due on Tuesday.
Those things should not go together.
But, I have been productive! I just finished editing a new cover-art for the story, and it took me a few days. I'm still not happy with it, but I can't really do anything about it. I'll get it up the next time I'm online here.
Okay, I just knocked out another thousand words on Ungrounded, bringing Chapter 4's word count up to... 2,400 and rising.
Meanwhile, that other story I was talking about, the one with Luna, is at 1,000 words and I'm almost finished with chapter one of three.
Sparring hasn't seen much work since it's last update, and I'm only at half a page in, in my notebook. Sorry if you're a fan of that one, but I did say it would be taking a permanent back-seat to everything else.
Ok, so I know that I really shouldn't be doing this, but there was this one idea that wouldn't leave my mind, so I'm making it into a short, three-chapter-ish story. I really know I shouldn't be doing this between work on Ungrounded and Sparring, but I think this one is a bit more dramatic and I'll be able to finish it up pretty quickly.
It'll be about Luna. That's all I'm giving. Sorry.
Until the next chapter,

I LIVE!
Even if I can't eat any real food, and I can't do any serious physical work in P.E. Basically, it sucks.
Either way, I can still write, and I'm sorry the new chapter was so short, so long in wait, and so boring. I had some stuff I needed to get out of the way, and then I ran out of inspiration because it was so boring. I still finished, and next story will have more magic, and more shenanagains!
Just got my wisdom teeth out. They hurt.
I'm going to get a lot of writing done, 'cuz now I have nothing better to do and I'm all bedridden for the weekend. Hooray.
For you, not for me. I enjoy writing, but it sucks being out of commission when I got invited to a party and a previewing of "Wreck It Ralph."
And news!
I really am. Physically and mentally.
I'm ashamed to say that after 5 days, I'm only 2,000 words into the next chapter. But, I'm still working on it, and I hope it'll be done soon.
Stay tuned.

Finally someone disliked my story!
Geez, it took long enough! I just checked back in for a few minutes in between homework sections, and noticed that along with my 40th like came my first dislike!
I will hunt them down and kill them. (Not really, I'm way over exaggerating it, but inside, I'm happy and angry at the same time.)
So far, my expectations for this story have been shattered thrice over. The first time being my original posting, when it reached over 10 likes in 2 days. The second was when people didn't hate on it. The third is that it had 28 up-votes, and no down-votes at all.
Really? I didn't think I was that good.
I am!
I have continued the story ('bout time!) and I'm gonna finish it tonight and post it tommorow morning.
And news! Changed the picture on the story. I said in the description that the picture wouldn't be permanent, just a placeholder until I found something better. And, well, this fits a little bit better, and doesn't have a "DeviantArt" watermark on it. That's a 'win' in my book.
