I once was lost, but now I'm found. Just a quiet blue unicorn with a passion for the written word.

    My Journey

    So I've finally set aside the time to sit down and properly write out a blog post for you all who are still around (the one I promised in my last post seven months ago :twilightsheepish: ). I want to tell you all about where I've been, what I've been up to, and share my journey with you guys. You were all around for some of the best times, and I felt it's only right to open back up again and

    Well Well Well...

    Holy hell, that's a lot of notifications to look through! I suppose that's what happens when you disappear for... *checks watch* three years. Huh... I suppose it's been a while, huh? It would be shockingly rude and unprofessional if I was to just suddenly turn up again out of the blue, wouldn't it? Yeah, I guess it would...

    I'm Sorry

    Over the past week or two, I've gotten messages from several of you guys asking if I was okay, if everything was all right, and just wanting to check in on me in general. I wanted you all to know that I was really touched by your concerns, and that I am just fine, but it also made me feel guilty. I'm sure you can guess why... I haven't written any new material for well over a year. I haven't been

    Dusk is a terrible, awful, no good, very bad pony...

    I have apologies to make to all of you. It's been close to six months since I had any activity here on the site, and even less for my friends outside of FiMFiction. I feel I owe you all an explanation and my deepest, heartfelt sorries. I am still alive, if just barely by now. These last few months, I sort of bit off more than I could chew with life. I took eighteen college credit hours in an

The End of The Griffon War · 9:47pm Nov 26th, 2012

Well, that's it. The Griffon War has officially ended. Cider all around!

But now that leaves the all-important question... what happens now? The Griffon War left a lot open-ended in its conclusion, which I did deliberately, to leave room for a sequel. I made a vow to myself that when (if) The Griffon War hit 1,000 views, I'd let the public decide what course they'd like to see best. Well, it just broke 1,000 views, which, if I'm honest with myself, I never thought would happen! You're all awesome, I just have to say that!

So now comes the big question. What would you, the audience, like to see happen next? A continuation of the story? Multiple continuations? I have tons of ideas of where I can take this adventure - literally so, so many options. I can either cherry pick the best one and write a one shot sequel to the story, and that'll be it. Or I could turn the aftermath of the war into a story series with several of my better ideas (several adventures, antagonists, etc.).

Personally, I vote for the series. It gives me a long-term goal and storyline, and something to be constantly thinking on and writing about. I do have a couple other story projects to work on as well as this, so I wouldn't be solely focusing all my efforts into one series. But this is all about you, readers. I wanna know what you think, and what you'd like to see from me. Feel free to drop a comment here, or send me a private message - either one works!

Thanks again for all your continued support!

Definitely the series, I can't wait to find out more! :twilightsmile:

Do you remember what I suggested during my last comment from the story? The one with the complications during the Griffin Kingdom's reconstruction? Or maybe another country that has claimed to be oppressed by Equestria or maybe IS REALLY oppressed by Equestria but most Equestrians (even the princesses) weren't aware of it. Like, Equestria's prosperity being at the expense of another nation?

Either that, or if you already have a fresh storyline, I'd gladly help or preread for you.

In fact, just roll with your storyline and have me as support. Luna knows that your idea is probably better.


If you do have a fresh storyline, please...lay it on me! I'll do my best to pick out inconsistencies and whatnot.

Silver out!

Oh, don't be so quick to put your ideas down, my friend! I'll send you a message with a synopsis of several ideas I'd use in the series, just to give you a taste of what I have running rampant in my head. One idea is actually inspired by what you commented on the story itself.
