    An Apology

    I doubt many people will read this, considering the broken promises that are The Curse of the Wolf Pony and One Honest Mare unfinished, but I owe you folks who are still paying attention an apology.

    New Curse Chapter

    Hey Folks,

    Sorry for the 5 month wait for a new chapter. I was working on another project and finding a job. It looks like I've found one, which is nice, and the project (a tabletop RPG ruleset) is at the point where I don't need to devote a significant portion of my time to move it along. So, it looks like I'll have much more time for writing in the future.

    New Story, Sorry OHM Isn't Updating

    Hey guys! I've submitted a new story, which should be up soon, and those of you who are wanting One Honest Mare updates are probably wondering why I'm working on something other than it. Thing is, it's really pissing me off. At the moment, I could make it a great action story. There's nothing wrong with that, because that's pretty much where I am at the moment as a writer. Problem is,

    I'm Back!

    Hey Folks,

    Some of you may have noticed that One Honest Mare has been updated, kind of. I moved the two chapters so far into one short story. This chapter will be followed by another short story from Spike's perspective. Has anyone read Casual Vacancy? That's kind of what I'll be going for here: a series of connected, but independent stories telling a larger, over-all story.

    Hiatus: Indefinite

    Long story short, I don't have the time I want to be able to devote to these stories. My life is kind of in limbo at the moment, and I'm spending all of my time at my desk, preparing a portfolio to use as a freelance writer. I'm either working on articles or original fictional content. If I'm not writing, I'm looking for a regular job. If I don't find one this month, I'm probably moving back in

Hiatus Over: OHM Update Incoming! · 11:34pm May 5th, 2013

TL;DR Hiatus is over, expect a chapter in the next couple of days. Also, I need an OC for the Ponyville telegraph operator, so if you want yours in the story, tell me about them! I'll mention you in the author's notes.

You are now reading this in Claptrap's voice. If you haven't played either of the Borderlands games, you have my sympathy.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm back! I'm done school, looking for work, and get to pretend to be a writer in the meantime. I actually couldn't be happier. I no longer have constant studying and homework hanging over my head, giving me the time for my two favourite things: writing and chasing women! I will be finishing the next chapter tonight and tomorrow morning.

Lastly, as stated above, I need an OC for the Ponyville telegraph operator, so if you want yours in the story, tell me about them! I'll mention you in the author's notes.

Do you want a PM, or do you want your blog post covered in information?

:rainbowkiss:

So do you just want us to post our OC's info here, or what?

Oops. I actually did that. A character just poured out into the comment box. :derpytongue2:

A One Honest Mare update? :yay:

1057493 1057451 Posting them here is perfectly fine. I'd actually prefer that, makes it easier to keep track.

1057337 1057609 Lol, I made the exact same face when I started working on this again.

Aight. I got an OC for you.

An Earth Pony by the name of Mezzo Forte. He's the starving artist type; an amateur singer and composer taking odd jobs around Ponyville, waiting for his chance to break into the music industry. Calm and relaxed, yet lazy and easily distracted (usually by his own thoughts). He's got a purple coat with a curly, dark blue mane and tail.

1057898 Anything specific ya want?

1057976 Nope. I really just need a description, he won't have many lines. He'll basically be sending a couple telegrams for A.J.

1057987 Hmm. Well, that'll be easy.

Nimble Bolt. A pegasus who is part of the local Search and Rescue group, and though he is skilled, he frequently finds himself with days off or easy tasks in his job. He is very serious about it, but also knows when to let it all loose and have some fun. He is dark brown with a black and white mane. Did I mention he's very protective of his Stetson?

1058041 1057956 Thank you for the suggestions, gentlemen.

1058043 Anytime, fello writer. :moustache:
