Sorry that I've been silent for so long.  It's been a long month, starting bad and finishing up bad.

Okay, not everything has been bad.  I'm doing game writing, which is new, and I'm training people at work some nights, which is better, but 3/4 weeks I've been hit with 50 hour weeks.  I also discovered the new tax law eliminated an exemption I depended on, so I got hit with a 600 dollar tax bill along with the 150 dollar accountant fees.  Finally, after 3 years, I'm showing signs of tolerance to my brain meds.  This means that I've been experimenting with new brain drugs to try and keep everything working, and so far the mood stabilizers they've tried first turned me into a zombie for two nights before I stopped them.  So my brain has been going crazy.

But there is good news too.  first, I will be at Everfree Northwest in May.  I'm going as staff, and I hope I can do some panels, talk about writing, and meet people.  I really enjoy talking about writer's craft and critiquing.  I will also, very likely, be at Bronycon 2019.  I don't know if I'll make any panels... I really hope so.  I love panels.  I like talking about things and ideas and stuff in front of people.  I'm weird like that.  But I should be.  The awesome guys I'm working with are trying to help me out a lot.

Also, if you want a signed copy of Horizons, there's a lot of hard copies coming out.  I know that Zemming is trying for one tome, but if you don't want to wait, there are series books coming out of group called the Ministry of image.  You can get the first 2 books here:  https://www.ministryofimage.net/product-page/fallout-equestria-project-horizons-vol-1    https://www.ministryofimage.net/product-page/fallout-equestria-project-horizons-vol-2 

I know there's some original artwork in them, so if you meet up with me in May, I should be able to sign something, if you want me to.

As far as my own writing, It's been all over the place.  Some I've been doing for game stuff, others for myself.  Here's a blob of stuff.  Sadly, no rabbit and no Homelands.  The former should be done except I read Brandon Sanderson and immediately thought myself a hack, and the latter because I'm twisted on where Homelands should go.

Here's some game stuff though.

Sorry I haven't been more productive.  I hope things improve in April.

Now to go mail my taxes... sigh...

I'm glad to know that your meds are working out a little better, finding the right mix for that stuff is a nightmare. I'm incredibly excited to hear that you will likely be at BronyCon2019! I have always wanted to meet you ever since I started reading that mountain of words you call Project Horizons (I'm actually 2/3rds through my second read through right now). It is my favorite fan fic hands down. I love how you make your readers hurt and how you take your time with details and the emotional turmoil faced by the characters. If you do indeed make it to BronyCon, I would love to meet you and get your autograph, and if you are on any panels I will be sure to be there.

Well, now I'm cursing even more the fact that I live in middle Europe and have a bordering on fear reluctance for travelling. I am still on the fence about attending the BronyCon, but Everfree Northeast is so much further to travel... shame, because I had actually had started considering attending it back last summer when I read few people's experiances, but then I looked up where exactly it was being held (and realized why there is "northeast" in the name). Oh well, maybe I will muster the courage to travel for BronyCon at least, I'd love to meet you^^ Sorry to hear about how awful March has been for you, hopefully April will turn out much better.

Getting drowned and getting around. Struggle well, and appreciate the update. Maybe encountering and interacting with people from all over at those wild places can be become a delimiter to better things. I doubt it will be mundane, if nothing else. And I'll be absolutely vigilant in getting something signed by you. Now, will we get an "Awesome April?", or "Apathetic April"?

More incentive for me to try making it to EFNW—to talk with you about writing, or at least hear you talk. That'd make the trip worthwhile.
