Dissonance past the 50k words threshold · 9:13pm May 22nd, 2019

So, 12 chapters in, over 50k words, and finally past the 100 readers line too.

Updating the story has now become a new regular point of my week, and though my fears about it getting little exposure proved true, every like or comment brings me joy.

In other news:
- Loved Frenemies.
- Didn't hate the GoT ending, though I do have some problems with the final season. I know how hard it is to make all plot lines end up where you want them to.
- Isekai Quartet is awesome.

Dissonance is now my biggest fic · 5:29pm Apr 23rd, 2019

So, with the 8th chapter ready for reading, Dissonance has overtaken A Day At A Quest Hub as the longest story I've ever published.

Let's hope it can get at least a fraction of its readers.

Meanwhile, I discovered several fics of similar length, that didn't take their authors nearly as much time. Once more it turns out that discipline is one of the most important qualities of a writer. (We're looking at you, George Martin. Or not. Most of us have already found other stuff to read.)

So, seen the premiere · 9:11pm Apr 6th, 2019

A lot has changed.
Some parts looked like out of a fanfic, which just shows how in synch our minds are with the show.

On a different note... in the history of the series I've never seen anyone so explicitly disintegrated

Dissonance: A Hidden World published · 12:33pm Mar 30th, 2019

The story is finally ready for reading :coolphoto:

I can't believe how long it has taken.

Well, they say you live many lives, because roughly every 7 years you are a different person. I spent my last six years being "the guy that is writing Dissonance".

Now to anxiously wait to see if you like it :rainbowderp:

I keep learning of new musicals through MLP · 9:20pm Jul 31st, 2018

I'll be looking to find the full musical now. Reminds me of Jekyll and Hyde a lot.

In other news, my writing work has been stalled by the D&D campaign I've been Dming. So much maths at high levels...
The final battle approaches so there is a good chance I return to work soon.
