    I know it's been a while...

    ...But I've been working on something else on another site. I said I would be working on that fantasy story when I left, but things came up and I haven't been working on it much. The thing is, around Christmas time (oh God, I should've at least said Marry Christmas and Happy New Year to you guys... better late than never?) I got this idea to write a super hero story in novel form, and I've been

    Groooooan.... I'm so sorry...

    Screwit Screwit Screwit... Uhhhhg.... Okay, so I've been sick for a while, now I'm getting better, but I have finals, and I've got so many Irons in the fire.
    How many irons? All of them. All the irons are in the fire right now.

    New Chapter

    As I mentioned a while ago, I am writing a story on a different site that has nothing to do with ponies. I have just added the first (real) chapter to that story(if you wish to read it, follow that first link, then the appropriate link on that blog post). This means I am back on this site for a few updates. The tagged stories are to expect updates

I just am not feeling the urge to write jack siht on this site. I'm so sorry guys, but I don't know how long it'll be before you see another update from me. I've just been working on so many... how do I put it? Real things. Ideas, actually writing, and colaborating on actual stories that have nothing to do with a fan base. I'm sorry, but I think it's time I got serious about my writing career. I AM interested in getting books published after all. I've been trying, I really have, but the pony fanbase (while I still enjoy the show) has begun to disinterest me. I used to love these vivid colors, the fun stories, writing about them, and so much more, but now? It just doesn't feel the same. I guess it finally occured to me how real siht is getting in real life. It's taken too long for me to start missing my dead G-pa (I never met him, so I suppose that I really shouldn't miss him at all), and I never wanted to focus on my girlfriend as much as I do now that we've passed eight months (pretty good for a first romantic partner, no?). I look at ponies and think "those were good memories" not "I should write more...", or "man, that's just too happy" not "wow that makes me feel good". I honestly miss the days when this show inspired me.
I guess what I'm saying is: I'm not really a brony any more. I'm just a fan. I'd promise to finish the stories I'm writing right now, but let's face it; they won't get anywhere beyond the reader base they've already got, and I have no planned endings for any of them. Besides, I can't find it in me to really finish them. Maybe someday, it'll come back. Maybe this is just how the gloomy, snowless winter I'm having is effecting me. I'm not sure, but I am sure of this: I'm so sorry, but I'm done here.

MAYBE. I may find it in me to update, but please don't check eagerly on a daily basis, please don't post comments asking why it's taking so long, and please don't be upset with me. I'm just.... I'm trying so hard to be serious about becoming an author and, in all seriousness, this site was honest-to-God just practice. Sorry again.

That's fine. My fans understood, so I'm sure yours will as well. Real life comes before the internet of course. :pinkiehappy:

So long my friend and good luck with you writing

Well, so much for your stories, they are effectively dead.
Wish you luck in the real world dude....

But as some Southern folk would say.
"If you dare to come back...."

But I digress.
Just don't expect a warm reception if you comeback.
Chances are, you'll be a changed person....
I rather not get a into a heated debate about contributing some damnable idea to some cause that warrents not my loyalty.
I had seen this happen with a Pokemon fan group.... It resulted in the entire group of about 800 members dissolving...
Feelings were bitter ever since then.

Well I guess so... Even though I did want to see how the rest of New Perspective was going to turn out, your life is definitely more important that anything that you could possibly post on here. I hope you best of luck in the world of writing, and based off what I have read in just that one story I say you have potential to become a fantastic writer.

Ugh... why is it that after I join a site all that good artiists on there start leaving?.... Mr/Ms Seven81493 is right though, real life comes before internet so I wish you good luck with your writing career:twilightsmile: See you around, hopefully

You do what you feel is best, you already gave us great times, no need to be sorry when reality comes a knockin'. :raritywink:

Good luck, with getting things published, I know you can do it. :twilightsmile:

Don't worry don't worry all your fans can wait so just take your time and calm down ok:twilightsmile:

That is most understandable. Good luck with all of your writing endeavors!:twilightsmile:
