    Actually nice content

    Have a look at this lovliness.

    Remember a while back when I made some Hearths' Warming content, the pony version of Santa and the Krampus. It was a nice thing, a happy thing. The opposite of caribou and zebras. And I finally got something drawn on that subject. The Hearthkeeper, Kampfite, and their Pooka wives Klåsa and Kråmpa.

    Why I stopped (and might not restart)

    It's a short answer. They broke me. Given some replies in the past, I can actually say to some readers, you broke me.

    I finally found it

    Way back when, at the start of the Fall there was one specific image I was mining for context before I had more primary sources. It colored the entire perception of the caribou and gave rise to the ultra-harsh depictions as literal Nazis, and also why I hammer their racism so hard. If you happen to notice, all the women are ponies, and some men as well. Other species don't exist EXCEPT acceptable

    Placed in the monster pen

    A popular setting for horror anything is the haunted asylum. See, it was filled with crazy people. Crazy people are all sociopathic professional serial killers, and when they die they all turn into ghosts with have an insatiable drive to kill stupid teenagers. Nevermind that the inmates of asyla generally had even fewer rights and protections than even regular prisoners for a ridiculously long

    Help needed from Fallout: New Vegas fans

    It's no secret I'm a strong Black Isle fanboy. I believe in the purity of Fallout one and two. It had the retrofuturistic feel and look of the old atompunk pulps, the senseless exuberance and clean lines of streamline moderne and Googie mixed with B-Movie sci-fi and all the little idiot lies that made it fun. There was a frivolousness to it. A joyous abandon when designs aped Mad Max, when people

Frankly, I'm shocked · 5:04am Apr 2nd, 2014

"The Ballad of the Last Arch-Magus" has such... depressing numbers. It's the most "literary" thing I've done in a while. Yet I get better responses to quick clop.

I think it bothers me mos because I put in genuine effort and I wanted people to say at least "you wasted the effort because of..." and then explain. I agonized over the stanzas, rearranged a few a few times, rewrote a couple a few times, busted out the rhyming dictionary and did all I could to
dodge slant rhymes (even though they were judged good enough for Emily Dickinson.) That's 80 stanzas, of eight lines each. 640 lines, with a consistent structure and a scheme A-B-C-B-D-E-F-E.

I thought at least some of my watchers actually liked literary works like poems. I mean, maybe the subject matter scares some folks but I promise I do hate Fall of Equestria and what I write is against it.

Won't anyone give it a chance?

What can we say? Sex sells.
And this fandom is so full of sex it's a fucking brothel. :trixieshiftleft:

You're not wrong. Admittedly, it's good in some amount. But this seems a bit excessive. I try to do more drama and comedy than sex. Even my sex stories have drama and comedy.

Well, you do a damn fine job. I came for the clop, but I stayed for the plot.
There's not many authors on this site that can drag me kicking and screaming into their story telling.
Especially when all I'm seeking is a quick fix. :trixieshiftleft:

You wasted the effort because this fandom has a median age of 20 and doesn't give two shits about literary fiction. :|

Thank you for the kind words. I like to try a mix of things, but I spent a lot of money, and time, in literature classes at college and a university so I kind of have a bias in that direction.

I was hoping that was not the case but my greatest fear is you may be correct.

1976921
That does explain why you can write so well. Does it have anything to do with Olde Luna speak too?

1977010

I started writer her like that WHILE taking an Elizabethan drama class.

Well, I care, I'm just swamped. :B

I know. I expected your comment to happen far later. I meant my other watchers.
