Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

    Stepping Down from Fanfic Writing; Focusing on Life, Career, Game Dev

    This blog post might not come as any surprise given the last new chapter of anything I posted was a year ago. I meandered away from the site for some time, unsure if I would feel like coming back. I'm making this blog post because I'm pretty sure now at this point I won't want to write ponyfic any time soon. I really regret leaving A Darkened Land unfinished, since I did truly enjoy writing quite

    An Update

    After being silent so long I guess I should start by saying this isn't a gloom and doom type blogpost, heh.

    Unpopular Opinion #6: Learning Theory Can Kill You

    Okay, maybe "kill you" is a bit overdramatic, but "clickbait" is sort of a theme of these blog posts' titles anyway so yeah.

    I recently came back from Bronycan where I spoke on 3 separate hour-long writing panels. I got some pretty good words of encouragement from people saying they learned something, and actually in talking that much about writing I felt I learned something too.

    My Slow Writing and Life Update

    I'm 4th year University student studying Computer Science. I'm into writing, art, programming, and game development. I tend to plan far in advance for the future, and previously I've mentioned A Darkened Land will likely be my last novel length fic.

    Bronycan Details

    Hey there! So I'm all set for Bronycan and they've got the schedule up on their website.

    In a surprise turn of events, the coordinator approved of all of our panels! That means I'll be sitting in as a panelist on 3 of the 4 writing panels our little group is organizing. Here's the times/topics for all four:

Basically Crunch Time with the End of the Semester · 12:53am Dec 5th, 2015

Sorry guys. I feel like shit for not getting around to updating by now. I really wanted to break up A Darkened Land's hiatus with these character stories, but now it's looking like I'll probably be finishing the arc not long after I get around to posting the first one. I haven't had a chance to work on writing, gamedev, or art at all for nearly 2 weeks. I've had one or two PMs asking whether I'm going to continue the story and I just wanted to say: on principle, I very strongly dislike not finishing things. Whatever I start, I will finish eventually, however much work it is.

I didn't manage to get the new chapter edited before, but I'll have a gap in a couple days where I quite easily can get it polished and uploaded. In the next couple days I have a 30 page technical report due and a Calc III final, so until those are over on Monday, I won't have any breathing room.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some ~300 pages of calculus textbook to read. :twilightsmile:

Take your break sounds :P. I know that feeling.

Ah don't feel bad, Sounds, college/life is way importanter than ponies. Don't beat yourself up. Besides, finals will already give you plenty of reason to do that :pinkiecrazy:
