Hey, those who are watching this space and haven't been seeing much? That's because I've been busy with non-furry projects which don't belong here. I've also been lacking in inspiration to really get to work on even short pieces to keep this place alive. I thought I'd get a chance to really get to work on myriad other writing projects after finishing "Evalia's Tale" (and the edits) but wrestling with getting FA to accept the full story kinda put plans to a halt.

And then after that... reality happened, as for two months I became consumed with a lot of things which HAD to be dealt with immediately. (Or else.) And then there was some minor interpersonal drama with someone in reality which needed the REST of my full attention. This is outside of running a (very long) BattleTech campaign back up to speed again, and starting to 'spin up' a D&D 4e campaign back to process again. The good news is at least these projects are going along fine - everyone involved claims to be having fun with it, so it's working out.

(... no, there are no plans for an anthropomorphic version of the Inner Sphere to sink time into. Because there are WAY better ideas I could be doing with that IP.)

However:
- I've got a couple collaborative pieces which are in the pipeline just waiting for finishing touches to get done. This could take a while, or no time at all, as it really is out of my hands for the time being. Just know the text is (mostly) finished.
- There's a folder of ideas for short stories featuring Evalia, but the aforementioned problems have kept me from doing more than add to the list.
- The tease I had for working on "Green Eyes" is going to start going into motion again once I can find the "voice" for various characters again.

But there's not a good chance these are going to happen any time soon, because in four weeks work starts pushing for the holiday season and that's always a "good time". (Disclaimer: How good it is depends on whether I've gotten into the wine yet.)
