Hey there everyone. First things first I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Secondly, I'd like to talk about this story.

Hey there everyone, I know this is probably a surprise after my long, and sudden, hiatus.

So yeah... I'm still here, and I want to apologize for not updating the story in such a long time. I think I said it would only take a week to get out, right? And yet here we are nine months later and I got nothing to show for it.

Hello my loyal readers!

I wanted to make this small blog to apologize for my tardiness regarding the next chapter of TAOAT. To put it bluntly I've been slowly digging a hole in my life and only recently did I finally get help and manage to drag myself back out. And even then, only about half way.

Its been a while, hasn't it?

To those of you who read the previous blog I posted in regards to the most recent chapter, I want to formally apologize for what I wrote. I was angry and frustrated with the way my story, and by extension myself, have been treated. I worded it in a way that put my readers in a negative light, and for that I regret what I have done.

It's been quite a while since I've been active on this site, and for the time I've been inactive I haven't gotten any writing done. I needed to take control of my life while it was going through a critical phase. That phase is starting to calm down now and I should be able to find free time to do some writing.

A couple of days ago I decided to go back and reread the first few chapters I had posted for this story. What I read was... pretty bad, actually. It's true that it was my first story and I was just getting use to the layout of FimFiction, but at this point it's inexcusable. There are numerous grammar mistakes, format errors and other bits I'm sure I missed.

Hey guys, I'll just get right down to business this time. I'm working on a new story and I wrote out a few chapters already. I'm telling you this because I don't really know how to feel about this story. I like what I have, but there are certain variables that are hindering my progress on it. The story features Gaara from Naruto and takes a different turn than most HiE. At first I planned on this being another Displaced fic (my second one), but I'm still unsure on that decision. If you guys

Hey guys, it's been... a little over a month now since I wrote a blog. As I mentioned in my last blog, I'm still incredibly busy with school and I'm trying to take my education seriously. I mentioned that I wouldn't be doing any story updates until around December 15-20, when the semester ends. The only thing is... that may change, and for the better.

Hello everyone, I just felt I should give an announcement regarding what's happening right now. I'm sure some of you have noticed that I've spent a lot less time online over the pass few days, and for good reason. For those of you who don't know, I'm a full time student at college. This means I take roughly 4 classes every semester. I don't really work, because school is considered a job in a sense.

So last blog post I said I would try writing some other stories. Well I went through with that and so far it's getting positive reviews. Without trying to seem as if I'm begging for more viewers, I thought I'd post a blog so those who follow TAOAT, but not me, will know of these stories.

Now before the chaos begins, let me explain!

So I'm up to chapter 23 of The Awakening of a Tactician and the story already has 620 up-votes. To say I'm happy is an understatement; I'm positively honored. When I started writing this story I would have been happy with 300 votes. Instead I get twice that amount with the number still rising on a daily basis. I can't even begin to thank you guys and I want you to know the only reason this story is continuing is because of the huge support I'm receiving.

There's some complications. Yes, I finished editing the behemoth of a crossover. 262 pages and over a 100,000 words. It's practically a story in of itself.

So roughly a month ago I said it would take me a month or two in order to get the crossover completed and ready for publishing. I'm sad to say that I'm going to have to extend that time. Work and school are taking a lot out of me and it's only going to get worse as time goes on. Out of the 264 pages I need to edit I have a measly 35 completed at this time.

So Flutters is Shy and myself have finally finished the crossover we've been working on together. What I wanted to do was announce future plans I had for it.

Yep, it's as the title says, I want to get some art for my story. This includes a one of a kind cover art as well as some scenic drawings during the story. I have a lot of good ideas, but the problem is that I don't know any good artists to go to. I'm looking for artists who are either good at drawing humans (and ponies, possibly together) and more importantly, high detailed scenery. For example, a nice picture of Robin's cabin in the middle of a clearing within the Everfree forest.

So let me cut right to the chase. For those of you who have read my story I'm sure you recall me mentioning the Ancient Language which is used to write the tomes Robin uses. This language is from Fire Emblem and is supposed to be a dead/dying language that only a few know how to speak fluently.

Hey, a small update to let you guys know where I'm at with the story. I figured It would be best to do this periodically to show that I'm still alive and still writing. As of now I don't know when I'll be releasing the next chapter of The Awakening of a Tactician. I've worked a bit on chapter ten, but it still needs work. What I've been busy doing is writing and scripting future chapters. This will allow me to better direct the flow of the story instead of just 'winging it'. As of

So, I mentioned this once or twice in the comments of my story, but I figured it would be best if I announce it in a blog for all to see (if anyone even reads these things). The next chapter of the story (possibly) won't be out for some time. To be completely honest with myself, I have no idea how to write the next chapter. I know that might sound weak, since it's so early in the story, but it's true. I have a general idea for how this story is going to go, but it's by no means set in
