    That Time of the Season Once Again

    Hello all, hope everybody is having a good holiday.

    I'm a bit too hopped up on eggnog right now to really go into depth, but for anybody who remains who cares to hear it, I'll try and have a status update pretty soon.

    Hope everybody is enjoying the season! Merry Christmas~!

    I found some VINTAGE Brony Meme Stupidity in the back of my closet

    So, no real work done on anything creative right now, my dudes. Still working through my shit. Getting a lot of therapy, but unfortunately the "greater situation" I'm dealing with is both existential, ongoing, and an annoyingly hot topic right now, so it's an uphill battle.

    Happy Yearly Holiday Update

    Huh. I wonder if anybody still checks this page. I've been pretty dead on this site for a while now.

    Happy Holidays to everybody out there who still finds themselves entranced by stories of technicolor equines. I hope everybody is having a Merry Christmas.

    The Yearly Holiday Janitorial Update

    *peeks in*

    ...Is anybody even still watching this space?

    So, another year has gone by and I'm afraid, once again, I have little to show for it.

    Christmas Wishes, Apologies, and Updates

    Hello, everybody. Long time no... well... anything really.

    It's been exactly one year since I've given anybody here any blog whatsoever, and that was just a quick Christmas gag. It's been even longer since I've actually given anybody any updates on any of my stories or what's going on in my life.

Sooooo... about that chapter (and about future streams) · 11:45pm Nov 30th, 2015

I am deeply sorry that it didn't get out when I expected it would. I was caught up pretty much the whole month trying to write my own original work for NaNoWriMo

It... didn't work out. =__=

I got, like, a third of a novel done so that's something at least. If I've learned anything from writing fanfiction it's that I'm very slow, though. And apparently it's no different with my original work. What really killed me, though, was my lack of a sufficient outline beyond the first quarter of the story.

Remember kids. Never fly by the seat of your pants when writing. It never ends well.

But whatever. November is done and... it seems like it was pretty disappointing all around. Thanksgiving was a tense affair for me this year. A great deal of my family has stopped getting along so well in recent years and it was pretty hard to watch them snipe at each other for the whole night, eventually ending up forced to pick sides myself. With my time taken up either by writing or by trying to smooth out family issues as best I could, I ended up with little time to finish all the edits on the latest chapter of Applebloom, even though my good friend Merlos sent his list of recommendations to me a while back now.

On top of that, I came back onto the website a couple days ago to see that November was pretty disappointing for the rest of the fandom as well. Yikes, that finale sounds like it was bad. >_>

I guess what they said is true. November really is the Thursday of the year.

BUT! Thursday is behind us now and it's onto the Friday that is the holidays! Hopefully December will be better for productivity, the fandom, and family matters. With this in mind, I'll be starting up streaming again at the usual set times this Friday. That's December 4th

Looking forward to seeing you all again.

Furthermore, I intend to have the chapter out on Wednesday. That's December 2nd in case you can't be arsed to do math (I know I can't most of the time)

So yeah. Stuff to look forward to. Like I said, hopefully December will be better than this last month (hopefully I'll also be able to work more on that original work in my spare time, too, but I'll try not to let it cut into stream time).

Anyway, it's good to be back. Later guys!

I'll be there when I get off.

Yikes, that finale sounds like it was bad. >_>

Only the ending, really. The alt universe gauntlet it showcased is a platinum diamond mine of fanfic potential.

Sorry to hear Thanksgiving was such a bust for you. :applejackunsure: Hopefully the season of giving proves to be better.

The finale wasn't bad. Even the ending wasn't THAT awful. It wasn't ideal, but not awful.

Glad to hear this story is going to be continuing soon. I can't wait to read more of this!
