Hello there, readers!  I'm really sorry about being gone so long, but I've been working on a very interesting project with a recent friend of mine named Samantha Sprocket.  If you don't know who she is, she's the one that does the Gadget Steelmare text-based story Tumblr (Diary of a Unicorn Soldier is the name of the Tumblr ).  Go check it out sometime, read through the whole thing!  It's actually a really awesome storyline, I know I enjoyed every bit of it!

That being said, her character, Gadget Steelmare, will be a central character in this fanfic she and I've been working on together.  I do the heavy writing to make a rough draft, she reads over it, checks for errors, then converses with me about changes and ideas that she might want implemented, maybe correct me on her character's behavior and personality, things like that, and by the time we're done, we have an excellent end product.  So far, two chapters are done, and the third is almost finished.  When we've gotten through the prologue chapters, I'll start posting them here for all to read!  We look forward to feedback, we really do. <3

As for Taming the Rage, I'm still working on the freaking title, though I've gotten one part of Chapter 1 finished, Twilight's side of it, which is basically Side A.  Side B will be focusing on the investigations and activities of Wind Strider and the rest of the Shadow Guard working with him and around him as a part of his own personal squad.  Sometimes the activities of the Shadow Guard will overlap with the activities of Luna, Twilight, Celestia and the other Mane Six, but other than that, there will essentially be two parts to every chapter that will be of importance....usually.  Sometimes things will simply be going on for the sake of character development and plot enrichment, as I like to call it, along with several side-stories and side-romances that may or may not come and go.  Here's a hint: Wind Strider's bisexual!

I know it's basically been a year since I finished Taming the Rage, but just be patient.  I'm promising that the wait will be worth it.  After all, the wait was worth it for the ending of Taming the Rage, right?  I hope I'm right, for most of you.  After all, there are tons of other great fanfics to read alongside my own....like The Dark Apprentice or Hard Reset!  The Dark Apprentice is NSFW because of extremely awesome cloppy goodness, yes, but it's still a really awesome fanfic!  Don't even get me started on the awesomeness that is Hard Reset, either.  That fic is just....wow.  Go read it.  Nao plz.
