    PPA Announcement (It’s been a while)

    Okay, so, I had been looking back on Papers Ponies and Attitude… and I’m not gonna lie, to me, it did not age that well. However, I’m still somewhat proud of it. That being said… I want to delete a few chapters. I think one person said it best in the comment section in the last chapter of the second arc: This is a good posit to end. And it was.

    Waking Up

    I jolt awake as I yell in surprise, sweat pouring down my back and neck as I look around wildly.

    “Oh God, how long have I been asleep for!?” I ask myself as I scramble for my phone. I check the month and see it’s April. “ah… okay, a few months, that’s… not too bad-“ I then see the year. “… Damn, no wonder that nap was so good.”

    Isolated Room (short vent story. Trigger warning: depressing)

    The walls surrounding me mock in shadowy jeers. I stare at the ceiling in my arm chair, feeling my face slide down more and more as I grow tired. I’m always tired. My shoulders feel disconnected, my muscles are reluctant to move, the constant crawling of invisible insects haunt my skin. A pit sits in my stomach as the mockery of production continues. The days slipped by since I have last slept

    Short: staying alive

    A silent room is suddenly woken up as a familiar figure walks in. The room is mostly empty, with a desk and chair in one corner. A computer sits on top of the desk, which comes to life from the push a button. With that, the man sits in his chair, and sighs.

    So... it's been a while. Almost ten months. Where have I been? That's a good question.

About ‘The Good Monster’... · 11:25pm Apr 27th, 2019

I’m really nervous about saying this, keep that in mind everyone.

When I first started up the story, I wanted to do some dramatics. Lots of feelings, lots of imagery, and lots of comedy. However, more importantly, I wanted to tell a specific story. Sadly, looking back, I realized that I have strayed from it, and it was a complete failure in accordance to my intentions. It was too complicated, too edgy, and worst of all, it was not conveying any real feeling. I didn’t want to write a story about love or things similar to that pillar of thoughts. I realize that I wanted to write something people could relate to in some way or form.

So, I stopped writing it for a while, thinking I could think of a way to remedy this. However, I haven’t. I’m not being hindered because of Papers Ponies and Attitude, mind you. ‘The Good Monster’ was supposed to be more meaningful than references and gags. Yes, I want a little comedy, but I delved too much into that instead of the bigger picture. However, when I went serious in some parts, it’s accidentally done in an overboard fashion.

I know this feels like an obnoxiously serious blog, but this is how I feel. Thus, I’m going to cancel ‘The Good Monster’. However, I might continue it one day. For now, it’s on the back burner.

Thank you, if you’ve bared with me throughout this blog. Have a good day.

We've all been there. Having the wisdom to recognize and the guts to own your missteps if vital. Keep learning.

Will do. You keep being awesome.

When you do start up again remember this is what rewrites are for. You’ll make it better. Some of my favorite stories were rewritten so you’ll pull it off.
