Not having internet at home is refreshing. · 10:28am Apr 25th, 2018

That limits my online time to breaks at the office, bit there is so much more to accomplish :twilightsmile:

Finished painting the new appartment. Now to look for some more bookshelves. There is some stuff there that really shouldn't be relegated to the second row.

No writing done whatsoever.

I really hope Butcher doesn't go Martin on us, and does finish the series.

What are your favourite book series?

I think I'm using this blog more to track my progress that to communicate with people... so, in other news.

My girlfriend is sick, but stubbornly refuses taking a week off, for fear of disappointing her boss. Really, that's silliness out of an MLP episode...

My grandma has had her 93rd birthday. I'm happy she's managed to live another year. Though she no longer makes dresses, or apple cakes, she's a wellspring of happy memories that I like being near.

So, I went to youtube today, and found this :

It almost makes me want to learn Russian.

The story approaches its endgame. I hope starting a playthrough of Tyranny won't slow my work down too much.

And what are you people up to at the moment? Anything you're working on, or are proud of and want to share?

The endgame is about to begin, and just weeks after chapter 49 was completed.

All the praise goes to my girlfriend, who kept nagging at me to pick up the pace and finally get it done. She's a real angel.

I somehow managed to use the almost exact visuals in my fic, about a week before the episode leaked :pinkiehappy:

approximately 7-8 to go.

Also, Liszt rules. Search his music if you haven't already.

Somewhere over 8.2k words in 25 days.

That's about one third of the writing speed I aspire to. I need to learn to follow Stephen King's advice on limiting distractions when writing.

What goals are you setting for yourselves, and how good are you with following them?

Also, a windstorm has swept the country, killing two and causing millions of damages in uprooted trees.

My little brother is getting married this weekend. Looking forward to the trip.

What about you, people?
