Hey guys sorry about the lateness · 5:36am Sep 9th, 2016
I guess that's the story of my blog is apologize haha,
Unfortunately, I was part of the ITT Technical Shutdown so I had to divert some of my time towards finding a new school to continue my second degree. The GOOD news is that I plan in getting the final part of the three-part story published and I'm working on some kinks. My editor took a small hiatus dealing with some life which is perfectly fine as I could not have had some good pointers without him so as a substitute I am using a third party editing site to get my grammar underway for the next chapter which involves a bit of self-editing on my part.
Other good news is that I'm close to reaching the same amount of words written in the Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien. Although I cannot compare my works to his I love that I have made it this far and hope to continue gaining support along the way. As a personal request from me if you do find my book inside your shelf please rate it for better or worse, (hopefully not TOO worse. . .) I do take a lot of motivation from reading the sites statistics and I'm happy to see Remnants of the Void in 57 Bookshelves and have 157 Readers total who haven't shelved the book. SO if you find it acceptable and like it please give it a thumbs up cause that would be simply amazing.
Thanks for all your support and see you in the next chapter! Prepare for a return to Twilight and the crew!
Some FAQ that I've gotten through Site Mail:
1. Who are the main characters?
- Twilight
- Starlight Glimmer
- Luna
- Saad Ayran
1.25 Are there going to be ships or clop?
- No there will not be clop, I have decided on that heavily and I'm not comfortable writing those scenes, Sorry!
- There will be ships but they will be heavily backed up by story actions, not MLP Fandom Lore, Expect some very new/rare ships to be set sail.
+ Personally, my most hated ship ever is Luna + <Insert Name>, because they simply are both misunderstood and they both like the night sky, its an empty ship made of paper and looks great but after a while the paper gets soggy and the ship sinks. If Luna or anyone is going to ahve a ship in my story it will have meaning behind it because not all ships are made with love and well wishes, love is tough, love makes compromises, and above all love is hard work. I'm not going to be saying that all relationships are forced but in real relationships, we all have our bad and good sides and what makes us love each other more is knowing and overcoming those negatives to see the good.
1.5 Who are the Support Characters?
- Rainbow Dash
- Daring Do
- Spike
- Guard Characters (Shadow bane etc)
- Stewards of the Castle (FORESHADOWING WOOOOO)
1.75 Any other character references?
- I try to make this as much as an every pony story as possible. If you ahve an OC that you would think would fit or just wanna submit to me names that would be great cause im horrible with making names so some names are going to be. . .yeah.
2. Why does the POV change so often?
- The reasoning for POV change is to give sight into some characters within this universe of MLP. Although many characters won't get their POV unless it's a necessary occurrence for some good background, as Celestia and Ember are very distant from the story and past the first checkpoint that I have you won't hear from them often or they will be referenced very little.
3. I thought you said Flurry Heart wasn't going to be an alicorn?
- Although I stated previously that Flurry Heart wouldn't be an alicorn the more I looked into the story cannon I found that NOT having flurry heart an alicorn would be confusing and a bad idea. In short, I changed it, SORRY!
4. There's a lot of monologuing and not enough story. . .
- Individual POV stories will be some monolog, times where characters are alone we all have thoughts to ourselves and times when many characters are present I prefer to set up the scene and include dialogue. I like to feel included in the story and being able to setup the image of where you are in a story seems more fulfilling, but that's just my personal opinion, I try to setup as much dialogue as possible but always remember not every story is straight dialogue.
- I've also been commented as my writing style as Poetic (still not sure what that means) but I do have a sort of rhythm that I do follow. If you have any issues or suggestions please Comment instead of messaging me as I like others to contribute to the story or their recommendations especially as a new writer.
5. Artwork?
- Yes, All artwork is used with permission and will be lightly referenced as certain storylines are developed. For now, I have artwork Shared on my Drive and sometimes there are things that are not viewable, chapters can be viewed in another folder but I'm not releasing those as of yet. Please do not Judge too harshly on the artwork as I am taking bits and pieces from these concepts and including them into my story. The Helldivers will be 100% referenced though so have at it, Everything else please take with a grain of salt as some elements will be used while others won't.
