Today is September 23; which means it's been 27 years since I was born. Also, since it has been 27 years, that means Pennywise the Dancing Clown is going to come back and eat more children.

I have more stories on the way this Fall, one of them being a two-part story featuring Pipsqueak and Sweetie Belle. It's not going to be a romance (since I suck at writing love stories), and it will be inspired by the children's book The Invention of Hugo Cabret. The publishing deadline I set up for my is Thanksgiving weekend.

It's taking me a long time to realize I'm not NorthCrusader anymore.

After a long hiatus I'm back to writing stories. I was dealing with real life stuff, like my overly-demanding job and finances, and couldn't find time to do what I love. It almost came to a point where writing became the last thing I wanted to do. Now I won't have to worry about not being able to write anymore. Sure, real life will happen every now and then, and that's something I've accepted.

I'm still around, just been busy with real life. I haven't posted stories here in sometime, but new ones are on the way. I was over a fanfiction.net writing my first Loud House stories. Honestly, I really hope there is a way for this site to allow user to publish non MLP stories.

Well, that's all I have to talk about. I hope all my American friends had a great Memorial Day, and to the rest I hope you have a wonderful summer.

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know I haven't went anywhere. I started a new job and have been very busy with ever since. A new story will be published later this month that will feature Starswirl the Bearded and an original character.

Happy New Year everyone! We're only eleven months away from 2020! I hope everyone had a fun winter break.

I want to wish all my friends on Fimfiction a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

So I'm putting that three part Twilight Sparkle story on hold in favor of a very long one-shot featuring Shining Armor and Princess Cadence, to be published in January. I haven't written anything about them other than a supporting role in The Spirit of Loyalty, and I thought this could be a chance to try something new with characters I haven't used before. Speaking of which, there's also a chance a story featuring Sunburst will be coming soon.

Just shut up and listen

I know I probably missed the train, but Devilman: Crybaby is my new favorite anime right now. I binged watch all ten episodes yesterday.
