    Angry PMs

    When I get angry PMs from authors whose stories I left a negative comment on, I always laugh. This one I got a few minutes ago is one of the funniest I've ever seen.

    Planning a rewrite of Night Fury's Lament

    Anyone remember that story? It was one of the first stories I ever wrote, and the first I ever finished. And it has a lot of problems. From edgy OCs, to HTTYD canon-defying moments, to confusing and absurd plot points, to suspicious contrivances and coincidences, and finally MLP characters acting wildly out of character.

    Looking back on Trust in the Night

    Even after the story has been dead for over a year, I still get PMs and comments asking me for updates on Trust in the Night. What I'd really like to know is why. I was idly thumbing through it the other day and I realised that it sucks. It sucks really, really bad. It has about the same writing quality as those crappy one-shots with the 'X Verbs Y' titles that you see in the

    Ergh

    I said I'd start writing these more often. Here you go.

    I just had to write a six and a half A4 page poetry response for homework. All in one night wherein I also had about a million other things to do and only an hour and a half with which to do them. Needless to say, I'm a very tired froggy right now.

    Sylvia Plath and her depressing poetry will haunt me to the fucking grave.

    Infuriating authors

    I don't make these things very often, in fact I'll probably start making them more often, but I'm a bit ticked off right now and that's going to leak into my writing and reviewing if I don't do something about it.

    I cannot stand it when well-known and respected authors act in a juvenile and childish manner and no one says anything about it.

Oh noes! School! Also first blog post. · 1:00pm Aug 27th, 2013

First blog post (yay?) is here to tell you that school has started here in Ireland. As such, updates will be less frequent.

Now, story related stuffs.

My Little Ace Attorneys is still going on, don't worry. I just hit some pretty bad writers block. The same thing happened for Starlight

By far my most popular story, and currently my longest, Night Fury's Lament is still going very strong. The next chapter should be out sometime this week, if I can find the time.

In other news, it seems quite a few people want me to bring back Fading Moonlight. I don't know what to do. In my opinion, and in a lot of other opinions as well, it was a terrible story. Tell me in the comments-should I continue/rewrite it? I'm not sure. I would like to fix it, but it's also a terrible story that may be beyond redemption.

Keep comments and all that jazz going, it really helps. Every nice word you type for me makes me want to write more!
