State of the Scribe: November 2026

Here we are at the end of the year, nearly, in this the sacred month for writers everywhere. My goal for this one is completing Into the Everwood–should be about 50k, so it makes a good fit. Not technically the right conditions for a Nanowrimo, but–the org that pioneered those is dead, so I figure I can make any rules I want. Hopefully I’ll be able to report positively about how that goes. Got a little behind on the editing for this one, hence why it didn’t go live, apologies about that last month. But I’ve got a friend checking my work now so at least I’ll notice when things aren’t live that should be.

Things are just keeping on with the other stuff, though. Very much hoping I’ll be able to get it finished. Sad as I am to switch projects from the other story I was writing (Children of the Sky 4)

Really trying to finish up Quarantine. I feel like the finish line is almost within my reach. I can just about grasp it if I stretch all the way out on tiptoe. But the ending needs TLC too. There’s a lot we’ve set up that needs to pay off before I can tie a nice bow on Wayfinder’s personal story.

Anyway, I’ll catch up next month. Still remember how I almost died this time last year. and I’m doing better than that at least. Have a great November, everybody.

• Light of Danu, A human prince came to the cervines seeking peace, only to be betrayed, murdered, and remade by their goddess. Twenty years later, Sage is Skye: a cervine druid, one of Danu’s Chosen, and the daughter of the very leader who destroyed his old home. But when Skye returns to the ruins of the human city she once knew, she finds the past isn’t quite as dead as everyone believes—and strange ships approaching the coast suggest that humanity may be back for revenge. (not yet posted to the new site, since no non-fanfic is there yet. I’ll get it updated this month to support them!)
• Quarantine, a vote driven story about a transformative pandemic that sweeps across north america. Like Voyage of the Equanox before it, this story unfolds based on user votes. If you’re not voting yet, now’s your chance to influence how Elliot’s story unfolds. https://www.fimfiction.net/story/568477/quarantine
• Accidental Sunshine: Changeling discovers ponies, but can she learn to master friendship before her deception is discovered? https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-story-105351764
• New Way Home is the story of when accidental human arrivals to Equestria are discovered by some very unfriendly creatures, and they’re forced to fight for survival: https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-story-rescue-94115163
• Into the Everwood is my take on the Bloomburrow/Redwall type setting. Small wild animals, a medieval/magical elements, wars to fight and mysteries to solve. It’s an anthro world, though you’ll find plenty of my usual hallmarks (like TF), ancient technology, human influence, etc. I’m hoping to see it work as a series, it’s one of those worlds that has so much going on it could sustain several books with ease. Brave squirrel twins face creatures much bigger and stronger than they are. https://www.patreon.com/posts/new-story-into-144942218
• Layers of Change–Imagine an infinitely recursive hollow earth, where our same planet becomes increasingly bizarre the deeper down you travel. The story follows a true shapeshifter (at least he becomes one early on), which in this world are one of the most feared and dangerous beings–as they can travel freely between layers and take forms suited to each one. He becomes strange creatures, though his travels soon lead him to creatures he fears to leave behind. Everyone says he should be traveling deeper into the layers, but does he even want to? https://www.patreon.com/posts/147029874/
