About to Begin Again + Question · 6:50pm May 9th, 2016

I'm just about to embark upon a new story, just have to get away from this cyclic procrastination that's been tearing me up recently. I've been having a hard time, but we all know how much people on the internet say that. Hopefully I can get out of the rut soon and get back to my passion: writing. Also, if you're reading this, then I have a question: Would a comedic, heavily shortened parody of a longer story be enjoyable to you as readers? And no, this is not the new story, just an idea that I

The Wind Changed and other things · 10:57pm Dec 22nd, 2015

Over two weeks ago, I published The Wind Changed, and it's about time I got to talking about it. It was written forthe FTP competition over on the brilliant review group, Rage Reviews. It won the overall competition, which I am very pleased about, as you can

Pink has taken over FiMFiction · 8:29am Nov 24th, 2015

Why? BECAUSE PINK TAGOVER. I was looking over my stories, and they all have Drama tags. Most stories, with the exception of Slice Of Life, have drama tags on them. Is this a good thing? What do you think?

If you want to spread the Pink Cloud over all of FiMFiction, try and tag all of your stories with Drama (unless they aren't dramatic, in which case don't, because the mods will come to my house and eat all o' my tacos)

The Seventh Element and other things · 8:39pm Nov 7th, 2015

Do you know what's brilliant about FimFiction? The groups function. Without the groups function, the people over at Rage Reviews, wouldn't have hosted the **** This Prompt contest, and without that, there wouldn't be Daring Do and the Seventh

The 2,000 Year Friendship and other things. · 10:58am Nov 2nd, 2015

So, here we are again. My latest story, The 2,000 Year Friendship has just gone live, and I'm here to talk about it. Sort of a Behind-The-Scenes thing. To begin with, I'm not 100% happy with this story. It's nice and touching, but I felt it could be longer. The reason I uploaded it in the state it was to subject myself to bland and open criticism and because I am participating in a week-long story contest

Some unfiltered thoughts, flame ponies of darkness, and other things. PART TWO: THE REVENGENING · 11:20am Oct 26th, 2015

Now I've ranted about my pet peeves, onto the flame ponies of darkness. I'll give a brief rundown of my first ever story on FimFiction, and then ask why it was so bad.

Some unfiltered thoughts, flame ponies of darkness, and other things. · 10:54am Oct 26th, 2015

I'm in the middle of writing a fic (suprise, suprise; I'm always in the middle of a fic), and it struck me how awful my first ever story on FimFiction was. Honestly, it was absolutely terrible. Let me just go ahead and list my top five of the biggest mistakes any author can make:

Spooky names and other things. · 6:24am Oct 8th, 2015

Okay, so my AppleDash story is on hold for a while, I have some stuff but there isn't any plot. I might release it, but not for a while. You'll note the name change, and although I don't celebrate traditional Halloween, it's awesome to get into the spirit of the month. My name actually comes from the word Daemon, so it is sort of going back to the roots.

Anyway, the word of the post is a new word or expression (very topical for word of the post) and is neologism.

Expansion plans and other things · 6:20am Sep 3rd, 2015

While I am waiting for the Anachronistic Story competition over at Hazardous Writing Materials to wrap up, I figured I would explain what I want to do soon. As a fairly young (for clarity, I am usually the youngest person in any given room) writer, improvement is key. Improvement is everything. So I am going to keep posting mediocre stories until I start posting good stories, and then keep posting those as I gradually get better. In the short term, some Slice-Of-Life stuff is in the works, and

Finally done! · 6:36am Aug 31st, 2015

It was said it could never be done on time, but Non-Linear Ball is finished! And thank goodness, because not only was it the longest short story I have ever done, it was also the most confusing. I would like to say it makes total sense to me, but I can't with any degree of reasonable confidence. I told myself I would break the 10,000 word mark, and I have, but will go back to writing shorter stuff for a while, even though it was great fun. If you want to help me out, please leave a comment on
