    Let's Try This Again, Shall We?

    It seems like every time I'm ready to say, "Yep, this chapter is definitely done and I'm 100% satisfied!", I end up just putting my hoof in my mouth. I'm presently on my FOURTH rewrite of Chapter 2 of "Breathe" not because I'm dissatisfied with the writing itself, but because my mind keeps changing its stance on what it thinks would be the best way to kick off what I'm hoping will be the most

    Worldbuilding

    Well, I'm quickly coming to the realization that writing a story in the MLP:FiM universe becomes significantly more difficult when your six main characters are 30 lightyears away from Equestria in another star system. Worldbuilding isn't an entirely new thing to me, but keeping things "believable" and in line with the MLP canon definitely poses a fun challenge!

    Continuation

    Well, who's ready for a bit of romance? (disclaimer: no, it's not a clopfic. Sorry!)

One thing I've gotta throw out there for anyone who is looking to write a story:
DO...AN OUTLINE...FIRST.
As someone who's never written anything longer than a 6,000 word analytic paper in his life, I can safely say that when you're any great length into something as complex as a good (or at least I hope it's good) story, and you realize you want to change a critical plot element...well, it sucks to say the least when you have a 4,000 word chapter that has been rendered null and void by that change.

So, recap: outline first, then write.

May the wind always rise under your wings,
