A Plain, Boring, Update · 3:02am Oct 16th, 2012
Unfortunately, I have lost my creative energy. Duffman18 has promised to return it, but I have my suspicions. Still, it would be wrong for me to not update you on what my writing plans are even though I haven't per say written anything.
October Hiatus: I'm sorry to report that with homework assignments up to my neck, my recent illness, and other commitments I will not have as much time as I would like to write. The Halloween one-shot I promised? Not gonna happen unfortunately, as I have too many ideas but I can't think of a way to properly implement them. So, you're not going to see any updates this October... though I've broken promises before.
The Sordid Truth: Contrary to some comments I've read, this is probably the next thing I'm going to update... if I can get around to writing the next chapter. Ever imagined what you want to write but couldn't figure out how to write it? Yeah... that's The Sordid Truth.
Project KAFKA II: The next story arc for Want Me, Need Me, Love Me is shaping up to be rather nice... though a little plot problem has arisen. I know where the story begins and I know where it ends... but for the life of me I can't figure out how to move the characters from Point A to B. I have ideas but they're all formless and abstract. That and I can't stop thinking about KAFKA III, IV, and V and how much I can't wait to write that...
And the Rest...: Let's see what other stories I have snippets of written... Self-Insert that comments on the relationship between author and creation... Rule 63 shipping story where Rule 63 isn't the focus... Terrible Twilunestia... The MoonLight fic where Nightmare Moon isn't all mind-rapey or real-rapey... A Portal crossover starring OCs... Terrible Twilunestia... non-shipping MoonLight involving alternate dimensions... Terrible Twilunestia...
Oh god Crit, stick to one story...
I'll see you later when I have something to report.
-CriticalMess
PS - YES, there are THREE started Twilunestia fics on my laptop. Three. I'm serious.
PPS - This may come as a shock because of my stories, but Twilight is not my favorite pony.
That's just super, criticalmess.
Sorry, couldn't help myself.
Anyway... carry on.
Hearing I wasn't the only author with this problem made me feel better about myself
The Walking Dead starting has only muddled my brain with crossover fic ideas. Anyways hope everything works out.
Wow. An incredibly compelling Moonlight concept just popped into my head out of nowhere. Weird.
You have my arbitrary internet approval.
Go forth and prosper!
Since April, I've had this wonderful idea for a slightly-dark comedy that nobody has done (I checked). I have a good idea of what I want to happen. Grammar and spelling aren't issues for me. The only problem is that I can't bloody sit down and write anything.
425434 You and I... are one and the same
I take offense to the fact that you would doubt my promise to return your creative energy. I have deposited it in front of your room as requested, only slightly used. . . Okay, maybe a bit more used than that, but now where is my [PRECIOUS OBJECT]? I fulfilled my part of the deal, now you fulfill yours.
PS. Hope you feel better soon man, keep up the good work.
There -> (CREATIVE ENERGY PILL) You might find it useful. I know writing is hard, so take your time
"Kafka II"? Is that in any way a reference to Franz Kafka, writer of "The Metamorphosis"?

I have a habit of assigning project titles to my upcoming fanfictions. KAFKA I was the first story arc of WMNMLM and I still refer to it as such with my friends. CONNER is the project title for my Rule 63 fic, SIMMONS is the title for my Portal fic, and NOT-A-CLOPFIC is the title for The Sordid Truth.
And yes, what other Kafka is there?
425956 I do not know of any other author, person, event, etc. that goes by the moniker save Franz Kafka, the author I have previously mentioned (author of "The Metamorphosis") and your project, and I have to commend you on giving "Want Me, Need Me, Love Me" such, as I see it, appropriate implicative project name.

Oh come on, I do like Twilight Sparkle. Not only is she great to write about, but she's also a fun character overall. She's just not... in my humble opinion... which doesn't affect yours in any way... best pony.

Terrible twilunestia? No such thing!
Unless its badly written, or ends terribly, or twilight is forced to chose. Or something else.
But you want to know a weird idea that has plagued me?
You don't? Well I'll tell you anyways. "Twilight's harem of gods". Think about it. Actually, don't, the images will burn into your brain.
434107 How dare you! I've already got enough ideas floating around in my head and you add that one?! Thanks a lot, you've just delayed my update for another month as I try to get my thoughts in order...
434111 Hey, it's my idea! It may scar me, but that doesn't mean it needs to scar you too! If you want it, shove it on the backburner until everything else is done!
PS: You're welcome.
I didn't think that there was a reason behind my terrible friday/weekend, but then I remembered this.
Whiskey. Or red wine. Get the fairly high quality stuff (+15 USD for a bottle is a good sign) and drink at least two shots worth. Browse a Drawfriend on EQD, then try and write something. Should work pretty well.
