    Hey I'm alive!

    I suppose an explanation is in order of what the hell has been going on with me. Well, to be frank college didn't work out and I ended up moving down south with my family. The hectic nature of moving to a new place has put a damper on my writing and made it difficult to motivate myself to write. So I kept putting off writing as I've tried to get my real life in order. I can't say it's completely

    Any artists out there?!

    I figure after going several months, Equestria Guardians and some of my stories could use cover art. I can't pay for them because, college, but I will credit any artist who provides cover art. Please, either contact me on PM or tell your friends who can draw about an oppurtunity. I really want to help get Guardians up there.

    I'm not dead fellas!

    Gosh, I never thought I'd actually get to say that, guess I can cross that off my internet bucket list. Anyways, here's what's going on guys, I've been sick, out of school and just depressed for so long I've honestly lost interest in writing all together. My confidence was totally shot for the longest time. So, I gave you guys a huge hiatus that nobody asked for. For that I truly apologize and

    Hey guys, with another case done I feel like we can look forward to the future. Honestly though, the biggest thing for new ideas I'm looking for are side stories. I have a handful in mind though, so check it out.

    Welcome to Ponyville.

Writing foals · 1:09am Aug 13th, 2012

So case 5 will feature children prominently and I thought I'd ask you guys for advice and tips to give when writing children.

Well it depends on the character. Are they OC? Diamond Tiara? Cutie Mark Crusaders? Ask yourself these questions and think how they'd react to with their own personality, eg Diamond Tiara would find pain/bullying funny but probably not to the point of serious injury or death, which imo she'd be horrified at. Scootaloo likes doing dangerous stuff, while Sweetie Belle is not so sure. These are just examples, if there is an OC, do tell of his/her personality.

Good advice, as for OC's the only foal OC I have is Tailspin who's wheelchair bound and can't fly because his wings didn't develop right. He's a good kid who idolizes his older brother Private. He does think himself a burden to him though because as mentioned in case 2 a lot of what Private earns goes to Tailspin.

So is case 5 taking place in Ponyville, or Manehatten with tailspin? Also check out chapter 6 of case 4, I've put some more advice there with my review.
