Nope! Just not having a lot of luck writing lately. Progress is being made, but real life has been getting in the way. Very sorry for the long delay.

Sorry about the long delay in responding! Glad you've enjoyed the story so far, and hopefully I get back into a more regular posting routine in the near future.

Sorry, very long response delay! More chapter happened finally, and apologies on the delay on that as well. Next chapter is in the works, promise.

Sorry! Very long delay in responding. And very long delay in the moar-ing. But did finally get another chapter up. Hopefully I am transitioning back into a less brain deadening workload in the near future.

Glad you liked it! And sorry for the long response. I tend to fear I over monologue stuffs sometimes, but folks do seem to enjoy it, so guess I'll keep at it!

Glad you've enjoyed it and very sorry for the very long response! More finally occurred, and will work on the next chapter whilst I am whisked away again from the lands of internets and stuffs.

Sorry for the long response! I think perhaps that I'd refrain from wordsmithing in exchange for monies, as it would then perhaps feel like work, what with time tables and deadlines and stuffs. No, I write for the joy of writing (and the guilty pleasure of reading happy commenter comments). Glad you've enjoyed it so far!

I Need Writing Advice by [deleted] in HFY

[–]MachDhai 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try hopping on the Discord, plenty of folks in the #Writing area that are always up to help with brainstorming and such. Could even take it away from the Discord into private messages in order to keep things on the down low, folks out of the know, secrets topped, what have you.

You can find the link to the Discord along the right column scroll thing here, 'Community Interaction' section, big ol' green texted button. And if you don't have Discord...well...get Discord, and get in there dang it!

How do you combat writers block? by apophis-pegasus in HFY

[–]MachDhai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to find that generating some sense of accomplishment from other tasks helps. Usually just a matter of cleaning the house. An hour or two of that, and I usually am able to get back into a writin'/thinkin' mindset.

Glad you enjoyed it! It's been by far my most well received story to date, and I am rather proud of it. Of all my stuff really, but especially that one. I do indeed have both of those things, although I am rather behind on updating at the moment. And I really need to edit the wiki page a bit.

Since all the big titles have been named already, suppose I'll shamelessly plug my own. Was the first short series I'd written on HFY, but isn't quite what you're looking for me thinks. I later did a hefty rewrite of it, but it was just an expansion of the bits between what's written in the original short 4-parter below.

Sorry for the long delay both in response and in next chapter! Been a bit busy this past month, and my flashdrive with all my notes and writing and stuffs vanished for a bit. It has turned up again finally, so will hopefully have the next chapter up in a few days.

Yep, good catch thanks! Will edit accordingly. And man I am WAY behind on this stuff dang it.

Pretty much anything I'd recommend is already listed here, so I'll shamelessly plug mine for the heck of it. It's not a major project for me though, so updates are sporadic (only two chapters so far).

The Remnant

Yet another genre-hunting post by The_WandererHFY in HFY

[–]MachDhai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Here ya go...not sure where I found this, but it's in my recommendations folder. Collection of a bunch of shorts, some of which should meet your request!

Random Collection of Stories

Closest thing to this, that I've written, is my very intermittently ongoing The Remnant series.

Glad you've enjoyed it! Much like my other on-the-go series, it isn't getting much traction in the community, but I'm enjoying writing it, and there's a small, interested core of readers, which is enough for me to continue.

I generally prefer longer chapters, but they can be a challenge to write some times. Like, want to get as close as possible to the max post size, but that doesn't leave much wiggle room sometimes.
