New Holiday Story for 2018: "Hearth's Warming By The Numbers!" · 11:40pm Dec 25th, 2018
Merry Christmas, folks!
Merry Christmas, folks!
À la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time) is a classic of French literature.
A few nights ago, I finally found it. Lost Time, that is.
I got the rest of the set done on Saturday… and then my laptop had major problems on Sunday which are as yet not fully resolved, but at least I got it working again. This wouldn’t ordinarily be a problem… except for the fact that my house is being remodeled and, at the moment, is full of nasty fumes. Good old VOCs.
I saw this go around DeviantArt years ago, but trust me to be a decade late when it comes to a meme.
I'm not one for talking about myself, which is why I primarily use my blog to post story notes. But today there's a topic I think is worthy of discussion.
Yes, to celebrate my five years of being on this site I ordered a commission in secret based on my favorite character from the show. I know all my readers are fans of him so here he is, King Sombra as based on my oldest fanfic still up, Endless Time or Forever End.
I've just posted what may be the most personal story I've ever written, given that my middle name is Trixie, my nickname ever since high school is Trickster, and my mother has dementia. There are other deep parallels I'd rather not discuss here.
Took longer than I wanted, but due to losing a few hundred words yesterday due to being up for forty straight hours (beeping fire alarms suck) I had to fix and edit this monster of a chapter.
And this is the final chapter of this story.
Jeez, I've been coming here a lot, haven't I? Well, I've got some good news! My next chapter has been finalized, so I now have a total of three chapters done and backlogged. Further still, my editor REALLY loved the latest one I did, so that was a huge deal for me.
On top of that, I've started work on yet another chapter that I'll hopefully get done some time soon. I'm really gonna try to ride this creativity streak as long as I possibly can.
Lots of interesting stuff going on lately. GaPJaxie’s got a contest going in collaboration with the folks at the Writeoff, and I for one intend to compete with a story I’ve had on my mind for a few months now. But this serves to remind me that I’ve not yet released a story for February, and one of my goals since July has been to release a story every month. There are many reasons for this, one
Well, that was unexpected. Somehow, Good Morning, Cookie has managed to get into the Feature Box for the last… 48 hours? Something like that. I was not expecting this at all. The only reason I published it was because I wanted to maintain my ongoing ‘one story published per month’ streak. Not that I’m complaining, mind you, it’s just interesting. Mayhap more of my short stories will end up there.
The only good "woke" is that time you woke up with a beautiful girl at your side. The fact that your parents were on a vacation, meaning you didn't have to get up a like six in the morning before the rest of the family and quickly sneak back to your own bed without being seen, is a definite relief to be sure.
So, basically, that time you woke up, looked at the clock, kissed the sleeping beauty at your side and fell back to sleep for about three more hours.
Did you know that there are a series of elements and themes that I like using in my stories so much that my friends (and many readers!) have picked up on it by now? Did you also know that they make fun of me because of it, too? I love having friends.

The Codex Innocencia has been completed, at least for now, and will be updated with every new chapter of Seven Days in Sunny June continuing forward.
Feels good for it to finally be released. Check it out here:

Sorry it's a tad late. We didn't give ourselves enough time to trim the last riff to its final length. It's done now, though, and right here. Unsurprisingly, a lot of people died trying to conquer just the FIRST story in here.
Hey everyone,
Comma here again. I've been doing some number-crunching with the new wave of orders, and now that I have a better feel for the costs, I wanted to give everyone an updated estimate. The initial estimate came in a little under, and--
Boo!
Yeah, I know, the new price is going to be higher than the $47 USD I estimated earlier. Here's the rough breakdown as to why:
It's the sabbath and today I got another VHS tape from that huge box and one double LP-set.
One time when I went grocery shopping at Walmart, I started to get this weird feeling like something was slipping down from my waist. It took me a minute to realize that my underwear was starting to slide down by back side, slowly but surely. Like it was meticulously plotting its revenge for all of the times I stuck it in the dryer without the cottony dryer sheet, to save money by conserving the amount I used weekly. Oh it would have its revenge for not being extra fluffy like the towels that
The past week has been different. On Monday when I left my house for work out of nowhere a giant black wasp flew overhead and stung me in the back of the neck. My initial reaction was to essentially say, "Son of a bitch. Really?" I got a welt for a couple hours that went away. No trip to the hospital or anything like that. Just another day of me finishing out a shift before calling it a day.
Well, it's been a while since all the books went out, and hopefully most of you have either gotten them already, or should be getting them within the next week.
If there've been any complications with your order, get in touch with Comma-Kazie and he'll sort it out.
