    Where I've Gone · 5:06pm

    Many, many, sorries.  

    I have been distracted for the last two months by work, and by writing fanfiction for Darksiders.  My muse hasn't been speaking much to me for MLP, but very likely, when the new season kicks in this month, I'll jump back on writing for MLP again and continue Destination Darkness.  

    I also have a small side project which is a fanfic that focuses on Fluttershy which could be considered a standalone or prequel to Red Comet.  

    My apologies to anyone who was following my work.  I'm going to go back and reread my previous books and make some revisions and corrections in grammar.  I have a lot of time now since I have quit my job.  I had to quit that place because within one month, I have had three broken blood vessels in my eyes because of the sheer stress of that place.  It was a very demanding account for a call center that had no leeway or gave anything back.  I do not regret quitting that job because since then, I have not had any stress in my life.  I will definitely be looking for a new job in the meantime.  Until then, I have pretty much devoted my free time to catching up on video games, face book games, and writing.

    WEEK OFF!!!!!!!!!! · 6:43am

    Words cannot express how happy I am to get a week off.  I can work on my writing projects which includes the Red Comet Saga, the one shot I'm doing based on Fluttershy, and another fanfic I am working on for Darksiders.  :D  

    Also, I'll be catching up on playing games such as Telltale's Walking Dead, Sleeping Dogs, and another playthrough of Darksiders 2.  Yeah, I'm a gamer girl who's into ponies :P

    I'm hoping I may start the Mass Effect Trilogy (again) and maybe slip in some Dragon Age.  It will be a busy week.

    Okay, it's been years since I've written any saucy fiction, but I am willing to take that dive into the adult pool.  My plans are to have one story section where I post all my clopfics as most of them will be oneshots or alternate scenes from my fics.  I am doing this in order to keep the Red Comet Saga rated teen so more people can read it and also that I can have alternative scenes where two characters give into their attraction for one another and seize the moment whereas in the actual fic they both take cold showers or I draw a curtain on that scene.

    Each chapter will be different featuring f/f or m/f, pony/pony or human/pony.  Consensual, non-consensual, bdsm, or just straight.  Now what I won't do is incest, underage, gore, and my motto is if it goes in the toilet it stays in the toilet.  No scat or waterworks.  

    I may be persuaded to write requests, but it must be limited to the characters in my stories canon and non-canon alike.  And I do reserve the right to refuse or ignore you.  I can't write clopfics unless it strikes my interest.

    Working on the lastest chapter of Destination Darkness.  I know that not a lot is happening, but trust me, I have lots of things cooking that are now at a steady boil.  LOL.

    Also, I am working on a short story featuring Fluttershy.  It's a small exercise for myself to get inside her head a little and get to know her as a character.  I post it when I have it ready.

    Also, finished watching the Hunger Games a second time.  A wonderful movie with so many messages and a wonderful soundtrack.  I've yet to read the book, but it'll have to wait until I finish reading Darksiders Abomination Vault and rereading Fallout Equestria (my most fave MLP fanfiction).  Seriously, what kkat did with Fallout Equestria is magical and only few writers reach to that level of recognition with fanfiction.  

    As for Destination Darkness, I hope to have another chapter up on Tuesday which seems to my update day since I have all day to finish a chapter.

    Heya, glad that I posted a new chapter.  The story is moving at a slower pace, but please, consider this the calm before the story.

    Also, I usually try to post an update on Tuesdays because I have the whole day to write, but this Tuesday, there may not be an update, because I will be getting my hands on Darksiders 2.  :D:D:D:D

    So Darksiders 2 will pretty much be claiming much of my time on Tuesday.  I may get a little writing done in the morning before the mail runs and delivers my preordered copy to my doorstep.  

    Thanks for following.

    Any writer needs feedback.  Whether its  thumbs up or thumbs down.  Whether it's a "Good job, please post next chapter soon" or the dreaded, "u sux", or the more lengthy review where the good and bad points are explained in a comment.

    Comments can determine whether a writer continues with their project or not.  In the past, I have written fanfiction for other fandoms before and depending on the reaction, I either continued or dropped the project.  And I have dropped more projects than continuations.  

    And shockingly enough, I have had it where I had a project that I didn't feel good about or liked that received way more praise than the ones where I put so much effort into.

    Fortunately, here with my Red Comet series, which is a series I am putting my heart into, has received positive praise and followers and you have NO IDEA how stoked it makes me.  In all honesty, if Red Comet hadn't done so well, then I would have dropped the whole thing then and there.  But thanks to the positive comments, reviews, and support, I am willing to see this project through the end.

    But to make this thing the best that I can make it and to keep me motivated to improve and continue, I need support from readers whether its from short or long comments or just clicking the thumbs up or down, it keeps me in the know on how well my fic is doing.

    And I am certain that the same can be said for other writers.

    Update Changes · 1:13pm

    Sorry about the slow speed of updates.  I had a little bit of writer's block and there have been some upheaval at my job.  

    For the future, I'm hoping my new change in schedule will allow me to update more often. I work in a call center.  Yes, once of those places where I sit at a desk all day and take calls.  Sounds easy?  It's not.  It's one of the most stressful jobs I have ever worked.  The customers are batshit and my bosses expect the impossible.  If I go on about  my job, I'll end up writing about how much I hate that place than I would be working on my fic.

    Moving on . . . .

    I was on a split shift.  I work from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, I get off for five hours and then resume work 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM.  I can only stomach that place for four hours at a time.  So I do most of my writing during the split and on my days off like Sunday mornings and on Tuesdays.

    Now they are changing my shift.  They took away my split and I will be working a straight shift.  1:30 PM to 10:00 PM.  

    At first I was pissed, but then I got to thinking logically about it and I realize that it's not all bad.  I have all my mornings off and I believe I get more writing done in the morning.  My mind is just more active after I wake up and I think my writing is better.  

    I usually wake up at 6:00 PM, so that gives me 7 hours straight to work on my fic, or do other fun stuff.  I've been away from the X-box for a while and I sorta wanna get started on Deadlight, then Darksiders 2 when it comes out . . .some Dragon Age . . . .watch some Star Wars the Clone Wars. . . and further immerse myself in My Little Pony.

    It will suck when I work 8 hours straight, but in the long run, it'll be better for my general sanity.
