IN WHICH I ASSESS THE DAMAGE
I'm not spending every hour of every day on my story, but I am working on it. I'm trying a few things different than my previous stories, like taking a lot of time on it, and getting people's help with editing and the clop writing.
Anyways, here's the current progress on the story.
Heyyyy. Another look at my progress on 'Girly, Girly Rainbow Dash'
I started focusing on it more, finally over whatever stopped me from working before.
Anyways, the Prologue is finished; the Girlification is 1/3-1/2 finished, somewhere between those; and the Clop chapter is almost finished.
Here's my progress on 'Girly, Girly Rainbow Dash.'
The first half of the Prologue is done and proofread and such, The second part is written but waiting to be proofread and edited. I already have a proofreader. just a small progress report.
I make a point of not being sorry for stuff, but for this I actually am.
It's not that I'm being particularly hard on myself for letting people down (I do feel I am, but in this case I know I kind of have to and I'm not going to kick myself for it), but that there are things on here I want to do, want to write, want to create... because it's FUN for me. It's a chance for me to unwind, let my hair down, and not give a fuck. I absolutely LOVE not giving a fuck. But...
Heyyyy there, my little herd of followers! Just heading off to bed, got work early in the morning, but wanted to drop a little news:
- Chapter Three of 'A is for Applejack' is well under way in the writing stage
- Chapter Eight of 'One For The Archives' still remains in the planning stage, and I'm waiting on the OFTA muse to give me a good swift kick in the flank
aaaaaaaaaaaaaand
This has been yet another productive month for me. I'm excited to dig into the details to see how far I've come.
Buckle up folks, this is a long one.
In TER, I fixed all of the errors so far in the chapters that I have. This included name mistakes (I changed the MC's name 3 times now and in some chapters I neglected changing it, so fixed) and spelling mistakes. The Ending Race might change, as in, the name, because I just couldn't think of a name back then when I started writing it, so I will think of one again.
More info about Editors etc + YouTube after the break!
I’m sorry it’s taken so long, but this has been one of those chapters that just does NOT want to come quickly. It’s certainly been fun to write in places, but I’ve only been able to write a little on it at time. Regardless, the completed chapter stands at 7500 words and will be published tomorrow morning. No further teasers except to say it’s got a very unlikely ship, one that I daresay has never been explored before but makes perfect sense in the context of how this thing works. You’ll get a
IN WHICH I BRAIN-BARF ON YOU, AGAIN
Why do you read these blogs? Why do I write them? Eh, screw it. Here's some FatRat as reimagined by Irish-Trish (another composer I like).
It's a pretty good remix-cover, I think. Anywho, shall we get this trainwreck a-rolling?
Normally a meat-appreciation isn't so necessary to apprieciate the finer-morale of a children's story. (funny, as children can randomly be less biased by obvious interpretations, depending personal culture.)
Anyhow. S5 final was less charm and more intrigue, mystery and drama suspense, with a bit of bedazzlement. Compared to our usual post-modern fairy tale-ish MLP.
Before I say anything, let me just apologize for staying aloof these past months. I've got unanswered PM's and haven't touched Discord since last December. I've just been dealing with personal stuff and felt the need to detach from the internet to do it. I'm not angry at anyone and I'm not quitting anything. In fact, I actually feel pretty refreshed and feel like the break has done wonders for my mental state.
So, on top of getting some new music to add to my collection (Rammstein's latest album 'ZEIT' finally showed up, and picked up two albums of Unleash the Archers), which will no doubt give me more ideas to play with, I've also managed to finish a brand new chapter in "Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children"! Just gonna get it looked at by my best friend and best editor, and then I'll decide on when I wanna post it. Might actually try to get another chapter done before then so I can have some
There will be a new story upload next week, and on the week after, I will post the next chapter to Elements! YES! YOU HEARD IT RIGHT! I HAVE A CHAPTER OF ELEMENTS MORE-OR-LESS AT THE READY!!!
*calms down*
So, uh, yeah, be on the lookout for that, and I hope you enjoy the current chapter and the new story next week.
So it's been a whole year since I updated Hand in Hoof. Quite a sobering thought, now that I put it in retrospect. I've really been that horrible of a procrastinator in the last six months.
Yes, yes, I know what I said. I can admit when I'm wrong. I caved and decided to spend the next 24 hours writing that Clock Tower fic I mentioned in the last blog entry. While I did want to put it off, I also couldn't resist the allure of posting a horror-based story on Halloween of all nights. That being said, here's a quick rundown of what I have so far (contains a major spoiler for Friendship Games, so read at your own risk):
Two blog entries in the same month?! What could possibly have brought on such jubilant lack of sanity? In my case, I’m just very happy that seven months after its last update, my favourite of my stories now finally has a third chapter!
Death by cute. Egophiliac's latest “puppet” set? Death by cute! I can't handle it. I can't handle it! Halp! HALP!!!
