I write Hopepunk stories (the opposite of grimdark), the world has felt too dark, too cynical, too jaded. Time to bring some light and hope into this world and make it all seem less bleak

    Reason for no update

    Hey everyone, as you might have noticed the story is back on Hiatus. The reason why is for a few things.

    First thing is Writer's block as per usual, but I was starting to work past it. For about a week or so I had been doing really good about writing at least 300 words per day, I was on a roll and was starting to work my way up from there to even more words per day.

    Hi, if you've been stalking my story comments you might have seen that I made a comment saying that I should be able to get the story out in a couple of weeks, if not sooner than that.. well.. my editor has cut all contact with me it seems like. I don't know what has happened to her, but the fact of the matter is, I need someone to help me Edit, just a single person is all I require. What the job

    I am losing motivation kind of

    I am slowly losing motivation for my story.... I think its because of all the little ideas I have running around in my head and the desire to write a bunch of short little stories, and so I think I'm going to do that, but instead of writing just MY ideas. I want to write YOUR ideas, I am opening up requests to one shot stories so I can get the desire to write for Magic is her Talent

REVISED CHAPTER IS UP AND SOME NEWS!!!! · 7:08pm Mar 2nd, 2013

As you saw in the title, the revised chapter is up and its SOOOOOOO much better than before, some things at the last second I wasn't happy with but it would take an overhaul to do what I wanted so I left it as is -shrugs-

Onto the news, I have gotten over the biggest hurdle so far in chapter 2 and i'm slooooooowly working my way through it. This time, since I actually have an editor and a team of pre-readers, I will not have to give you such a sucky chapter for chapter 2, though it might take a while to get it all through since my lovely editor is in greece and I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO PUT HER IN THE AUTHOR'S NOTE AS MY EDITOR!! FRAK! I'm gonna do that as soon as this blog post is posted..... and I figure out what her Account is >.<

What was wrong with the old one? I haven't read it yet, it's still on my list of favorites that I haven't read yet.

881249 it was horrrrrible, in my opinon, I mean its better than a good amount of fanfictions, I've read too many to be blind to that, but it was paaaaaaainful, I made some seriously bad mistakes since I didn't have an editor, but now since I have fixed it you'll never have to see that monstrosity of grammar and punctuation

881279 Do you have a link to the old one. I really want to compare them for some reason.

881343 sorry but no.. unless someone had the proactiveness to save it and post it somewhere, it is lost for good... >.<
To give you an Idea though of just how BAD it was. My editor too the red pen to my story and I was happy that I found ONE paragraph... just.. one.. not marked with red, and the rest of them had at least 3 seperate mistakes in them.. at LEAST! and thats not even COUNTING the amount of horrible wording I had and just... -shudders- a good example would be me saying "When before when" in a sentence... I MEAN COME ON!! WHAT WAS I THINKING?? anyways, all in all, it was really horrible and you are better off not seeing it at all

881361 It seems smaller. Is this true?

can you think of any stories similar to the one your writing?

881963 Well I was inspired to write similar to Powers of Harmony and A Novice Swordsman in Counterlot Court, and according to my sister, my ideas of how magic works in my world is quite similar to a book series that I HAVE NEVER READ BEFORE XD

Its Mercedes Lackey's series "The Mage Storms" and you can do with that information what you will, but keep in mind I have NEEEEVER read it so... yea >_>
