Do you know Nobody? He’s my best friend,
Once befriended, we'll be friends 'till the end.
He’s right there when I wake up in my bed.
“Hey, have a nice day, Ben,” Nobody said.
Nobody and I, going out to town,
Don’t feel lonely ‘cause Nobody’s around.
We go to the shops to try some new clothes.
“Looks good,” says Nobody, keeping me close.

Night-time: the club with Nobody and I,
Nobody watches me, keeps a close eye.
Nobody helps when I dance and I drink.

I wrote an article about editing, how to get better at it, and how to be a nice guy while doing it.

I am very proud of it, and I hope you will all enjoy it.

A house is like a mould, I think:

It has lines and contours and nooks and crannies

And every house has a shape of its own.

When you put a person in a house

They grow to fit the shape of it–

Conform to its contours–

Feel out the space and impress upon the imperfections.

There’s a wall in my house with words written on it.

“Anglers Quarters,” it says, “Also known as Irish Row.”

It tells the whole history, top to bottom, front to back.

Enormous thanks to Illya Leonov for this absolutely lovely reading of one of my less well-known stories. Gave me legitimate goosebumps.

I've been writing for the last

12?

13 hours.

For a contest whose deadline has since passed.

And I'm still not finished.

11,076 words in one sitting

(well, two, if you count the time I spent shoving pizza in my food hole after writing the first 2k or so)

I must rest now.

But I swear to you, I will have it posted by the end of tomorrow.

And you can find it over on my friend Aragon's page!

So, uh, hey.

Recently I've been feeling a lot of nostalgia for the halcyon days of "actually being able to write and publish things and feeling good about it" so I ended up taking a look around Fimfic at my old stories and checking if certain stories had updated in my absence. I don't feel like I'm that interested in actually writing about magical horses anymore, but I really wish, for my own sake, that I could get back into writing as a hobby.
