Some things... · 5:42am Sep 29th, 2013
Okay folks, sorry I haven't been updating on stories for quite a while. In fact, I want to give out the reasons why:
As you all know (obviously) the school year has started and things are a bit rush for me now that I am in Grade 10 and I really have to focus on a lot of my studies, not to mention that I have piano classes and I am going to become a Cadet for the St. John's Ambulance. Writing chapters will be a bit longer since I have all these things to do.
The other reason is that I am really considering to do an entire rewrite of all the stories I am currently doing. I know I have other plans for other stories, but I feel like the three stories I am doing deserve to be finished and refurbished beforehand. I know that I should finish the stories before editing it, but I'm really considering to re-do everything.
For Preston Marlowe Goes to Equestria; I think that Preston is a tad bit too soft and that he trusts Nikolai way too quickly. What I'm planning to do is make Preston feel like he has no emotion when finding out he died and so on, but he will also be kind to the ponies and the CMC. Besides, I believe that Preston isn't that mean and hardened like in Bad Company 2. But there will be emotion added later on in the story, mainly on Preston, his friends, and his family.
Faith and Loyalty; Needs to be rewritten. I feel that none of the stuff makes sense so I'll try my best to re-do those parts and the whole story line.
Fallout New Vegas - (Not so) Lonesome Road; I need to rewrite that. I feel that the Courier, my Courier that I am writing in is a bit to OP and I don't want that. I don't want some glory hounding Gary Stu, fuck no, that's not what I want. Even though I didn't do it, I still feel like my Courier's way too overpowered and that the story nearly doesn't make sense, do that I would need to re-do. Already I re-typing the prologue but I am struggling a little bit. And as for Twilight's arrival to the Mojave, I feel that the whole "magic spell gone wrong" is too cliche and I plan to hopefully change it to much more different. For instance (spoiler alert), Twilight and her friends our out in the Everfree Forest to investigate something that has crashed there, which turns out to be a replica of the satellite that crashed at the Mojave Drive-In in Old World Blues. As Twilight investigates the crashed satellite with her friends in the middle of the Everfree Forest, something goes wrong and the satellite transports Twilight to the Mojave Wasteland. Technically, that's what I plan to start off with since the whole "magic spell gone wrong" is just too damn cliche.
Okay, I hope that helps you all to get started on what the situation is. I'll try and update as soon as possible from now on to get these stories written. But there's one more thing I must add.
I feel that the reason I am not doing so well in writing is because I am always too independent. I don't ask for people to proofread for me and as a result, my story turns out to be what it seems to be. The only reason I write is because I've been writing stories for quite a long time and it was inspired by my English Tutor whom during the last months before the summer holiday passed away.
I've been never asking for anyone to help since I'm always too independent when it comes to story writing, plus I ain't that popular since I just write these stories for fun. But if anyone is willing to do so, to be my editor and proofreader, feel free to contact me by PMing me here or on my deviantART which there is a link on my profile.
Welp, I hope that helps you guys understand what I am going through, and hopefully you'll see more coming from me.
