I'm a brony living in the Netherlands, that's all you really need to know. I have an uncommon interest in spiders, and started writing after reading two fanfics (one being the most (in)famous in this fanbase; MLD. The other being one that appealed to me personally; "How to Woo Your Lady in Nine Easy Steps").

I'll keep writing as long as I still have ideas for stories about the show that appeal to me. I try to answer questions the show doesn't, although there aren't too many of those. Also, I try to write stories that haven't been written by others yet. It's inevitable that I'll end up writing a story that's already been done, though.

Feel free to talk to me (I love discussing aspects of my own stories). You can quite often find me in the FimFiction IRC, although I do live in a rather uncommon time zone. There's always messages, mind you. You can also ask me for my Skype name.

I like to keep my readers up-to-date. As such, I quite frequently make blog posts telling the people following a story of mine about the progress I've made in that story (or sometimes lack of). You might want to think twice about watching me if you get annoyed by blog post notifications.

On one final note, you may send me any (melodic, although I'll try anything) metal you think I might enjoy. I frequently link to examples of the bands I listen to in my blog posts, so if you have no clue of what I listen to but think you have some metal for me, you might want to look at two or three of my blog posts, if only to check for YouTube links.

Stories I've written


When Harmony Reigns

When Celestia and Luna's mother shows up completely unannounced, the sisters react with something close to hostility, at first.

They soon learn that their mother means no harm, and allow her to resume her reign as queen of Equestria. Soon thereafter, she starts making changes that seem to directly oppose everything Celestia has worked for over the last 1000 years.

Will Celestia be able to cope with her despondency and rebel against her own mother?

Greener Pastures

Fluttershy is in love with Big Mac, there's no denying it any longer. She knows he must feel something too, because they've gone on a few 'dates' before.

However, being Fluttershy, she's had no luck in telling him how she really feels. Meanwhile, Big Mac is falling in love with Twilight, and breaks up whatever it was he had with Fluttershy.

This leaves her devasted, and furious at Twilight for not immediately turning him down.

Will things work out between these three ponies, or has their friendship (or more than just that?) reached its end?

A Queen's Farewell

Approaching death’s door can bring out the true nature in anything, even if it’s the thing we fear the most. The Queen of the Changelings is no exception.

Cover art very generously provided by Berserkeroo on DeviantArt.

This is just a short story I wrote to share one of the ideas I had about Chrysalis' past. I might write a short sequel (or second chapter; I dislike sequels) in which the letter is found and read.

Rated Teen just to be safe, as Chrysalis is injured in the story. I know how much ratings can annoy ye who approve these stories, so I figured I'd just play it safe.

Surprise! · 9:41pm

"We are not yet completely familiar with the castle yet"

"To follow in her footsteps"

Errors like those annoy me, so I just went through chapter 6 of When Harmony Reigns and picked most of them out. I'm going to give writing that thing another chance, in light of the ratings on my stories. So... yeah, here's hoping I don't disappoint. Again.

Also, happy birthday me n stuff. Legal strong booze, ftw.

A change in tune helps too, apparently. I keep trying to write while listening to my usual stuff, which is... far from ideal.

Switched from this to this. That got me going, somehow.

>>149395 Perhaps you need a change of environment? Or may be something as simple as a change of activity. Like, instead of watching t.v, grab your bicycle/skateboard/car, or whatever way of transport you want, and go somewhere that you haven't been to.

Just try anything! Even watching a movie could help. You can get that stroke of inspiration/genius from the strangest of places, trust me.

It's happened to me a lot in the most awkward of times.

That's just it, though. In my... twenty-six weeks of writing, I've never felt inspired to write a story I had already started on previously.

>>149386 Oh, i'm not saying they have to be one shots!

I mean like, lets say you don't feel like your idea atm for a chapter or story isn't great. Just wait and go around to look for some inspiration, instead of forcing it out of yourself.

Just go take a look at the stories I've written. I'm not telling/asking you to read them, I'm just telling you to look at what stories I've written. The multi-chapter ones were written as you just described, the one-shots were written as I had one of those writing-moods.

I'm not going to write ONLY one-shots.

>>149369 Well, your slowly gonna start to hate writing if you make it seem like work to yourself then.

I've had a similar experience like that. I use to animate alot, but then I got hard on myself with it, and worked too much on it to the point where I felt like I was working. Eventually, I stopped, and never even touched the software to animate again. What a shame too, because I would've been a great animator now, considering how many years it would've been.

But the point is, if your not having fun, then don't do it until the mood comes to you.

Meet one of said unreasonably harsh critics, then. I'm not saying that I've voted on my own stories (only Greener Pastures, by missclick), but I do have ridiculously high standards when it comes to other people's stories. That much, I should think, is apparent from my favorites.

Which inadvertently brings me to the point you raised: me being too hard on myself. I suppose that's the only explanation there is, really.

Suppose I'll see where chapter 6 takes me, then.

>>149359 It's only 3 downvotes my friend. Don't worry about it!

Your 'condition' is you simply being hard on yourself!

Lets not forgot about all the upvotes you have. Besides, those downvotes probably come from uptight critics (who you shouldn't care about really), and hey, possibly even trolls. Who knows?

Should not have said that...

*ahem*

Yes, I have trouble remaining interested in stories I've posted but not finished. Downvotes get at me far more than they should. When Harmony Reigns (don't bother to look at it) is the one I'm currently considering giving up on. A solid six months of work down the drain, but I don't care NEARLY as much as I think I should.

I wonder if there's a name for this 'condition'?
