One of these days I'll stop trying to write stories that are too grand in scope for my abilities, I swear. I always get a decent way into the first few chapters, and then just kinda stop. Recently I've written a smidgen more, but I figured I'd post the entirety of what I've got so far to see what people think, as opposed to releasing an incomplete story and letting down people who are expecting it to be fully completed in a timely manner. I do want to complete this one, of course, but I'm being

Despite not writing nearly as much as I used to (seriously, looking at that graph on my About page tells quite a story), I've still managed to come back to this site and write...stuff. I've had plenty of stories that sat in that unpublished section for months, some maybe even more than a year. Out of all of them, I'd say probably 30% or so eventually made their way into complete stories. Or at least, stories that were mostly complete (Sorry to anyone who was getting into

It's me again. The writer that makes blog posts while doing actual writing at a glacial pace. I'm still working on my potential next story: Cutie Mark University

An idea I've had recently is to do something I haven't really done before, which is story set further into the future. The idea essentially amounts to this:

The Cutie Mark Crusaders go to university. The university will be a place ponies go to hone their skills more masterfully. Anybody can be pretty good at something, but it takes time and practice to become a master at it, right? So that's my justification for why something like a college/university exists in Equestria.

Every once and awhile, I enjoy looking back on the stories I've written about these characters. Partially because I forget the details and sometimes my past self surprises me, but mostly because whenever I do, I get a glimpse of who I was when I wrote them.

I started writing this a few months back and kind of forgot about it, but seeing as tomorrow is probably the best day to release it, here's an excerpt from a little Hearts and Hooves Day story I'll soon be publishing:
