Actually, it feels like I've been on this site a lot longer than that. In general, I feel like I've been a part of this fandom for a long time even though I only started watching towards the end of Season 2. A lot has changed over the course of a year, and my stories have been either really good or really bad. I'd say in general that I've grown as a writer and will continue to grow in the future.

I will now be giving a detailed recap of all of the stories I've posted on this site.

Note: Stories that are Not Safe For Woona will be given a [NSFW] tag to the right of the link, so click at your own risk. Also, the recap will be delving into spoilers, so if you have not read the stories mentioned I suggest you avoid reading the recap.

Filly Fooling [NSFW]

Rating: M [sex]

Word Count: 131,499

I have to say I got very lucky with my first story. Maybe it was the catchy title that no one had used yet, but this story skyrocketed in popularity and became my most viewed story on the site. As for whether that popularity is deserved, well...that's a point up for debate.

I started with an idea of pairing up all the members of the Mane Six into various ships. What ensued was a novel-length exhibition into relationships and sexuality. There were some really good ideas, and also some bad ones (Rarity raping Spike comes to mind).

It was very well-received at the beginning, but when it branched off reception became mixed. Nevertheless, it maintains a high like/dislike ratio, nearly 1,100 comments, and close to 9,000 views. I will probably never have a story this popular again on the site, which is odd to say about my very first one.

Do we really have to talk about this one? Can't I just say it was a bad idea and move on? No? All right...

I was quite literally not in my right frame of mind when I wrote this. I wanted to write something along the line of Cupcakes or Rainbow Factory, but I failed on that account. The story only got about 1,000 views, and it's got the worst like/dislike ratio of all my stories, for good reason.

Reception was mixed. Some readers were grossed out, but others found it tame. To each his own, I guess. It's safe to say I will not be delving into the grotesque for no reason in the future.

Harry Potter and the Ponies of Equestria

Rating: T

Word Count: 14,255

Chapters: 5

Status: Cancelled

In the very little research I did before writing this, I hadn't found a Harry Potter crossover on the site, and figured it was high time to make one. I was writing it alongside Filly Fooling, which I eventually found too difficult to do, so I ended up canning the project because I was out of ideas. Oh well, not everything I write is going to stick.

Parents

Rating: T

Chapters: 1

Status: Complete

I hoped this one would have gotten more views. It tells the story of the Mane Six and how their parents traumatized them or left them feeling helpless and alone in a cruel world. Sad stuff, and I think I did an adequate job writing about it, but nothing strikes me as truly memorable. Still, I am reasonably proud of this work.

Boast Builders

Yawn. That's all I have to say. The story of a washed-up Trixie sinking into a deep depression and needing the help of the Mane Six to cheer her up again deserved a far more thorough treatment than I gave it. It was at least an exercise in writing, and it wasn't really that bad. It was just bland.

Ponies on Politics

Rating: E

Word Count: 4,380

Chapters: 1

Status: Complete

I had a lot of fun writing this one, I don't care that only about 300 people read it. A television finds its way in Equestria, and Twilight and her friends are glued to the 2012 election season. What follows is a fight between liberals Twilight, Rainbow Dash, and Spike, versus conservatives Applejack and Rarity, with Pinkie Pie not knowing what she's talking about. They all debate until Fluttershy begs them to stop. Princess Celestia then takes the television set away and scolds the Mane Six for letting politics create a rift in their friendship.

It wasn't fantastic, but it was a lot of fun putting talking points from both parties into the ponies' mouths, making this relatively easy to write. Check it out if you haven't yet, and you might find it a bit funny.

The Morning After [NSFW]

Rating: M [sex]

Word Count: 3,917

Chapters: 1

Status: Complete

Outside of Discord's Revenge, my worst story and the most negative feedback. I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw the reviews come in. Yes, I did make Spike out to be a total dick, manipulating a drunk Rarity into having sex with him. It was basically a reverse of their situation in Filly Fooling, but it definitely fell flat. You can skip it if you want. I won't feel offended.

Cuddling

Rating: E

Word Count: 31,551

Chapters: 14

Status: Complete

This is quite possibly my best work, and also quite the popular story. Rainbow Dash, feeling curious, tries cuddling with her friends, but when she cuddles with Rarity she gets more than what she bargained for. I took a cute idea and turned it into a shipfic, which not everyone was happy about, but most people still seemed to enjoy it.

Along with Filly Fooling, it got featured in the update slots back when there were only two of them. It continued to get featured every chapter, so I knew I was doing something right. With about 550 likes and nearly 700 favorites, it's my most well-received story on the site, which is a nice feeling.

Remembrance

Rating: T

Word Count: 5,445

Chapters: 1

Status: Complete

I am damned proud of this story. Originally written for an AppleDash contest, it was rejected because I didn't really portray the characters in a relationship. Rather, Rainbow Dash was mourning the death of her friend and lover. Interspersed with the sad narrative are flashbacks into their life together, and I thought I did a really nice job portraying their relationship (not to toot my own horn or anything). I really wish more people had read it, but maybe some people here will give it a shot.

The Pink Temptation [NSFW]

Chapters: 12

Status: Cancelled

This was originally called "Equestrian Beauty," a name I tried for two different versions of this story but one I ended up not using for either of them. This story focuses on Carrot Cake's slowly growing desire for a certain pink pony. The reason I cancelled so far into the story was because I found some editors that helped me completely retool the story. We'll be going over that story in a minute. Anyway, I got a lot of flak from someone on fanfiction.net for cancelling the story and starting over, which tells me that people enjoyed it. I didn't like where it was heading, though, and the revised ideas were much better.

Equestrian Pie [NSFW]

Rating: M [sex]

Word Count: 23,179

Chapters: 3

Status: Incomplete

My current project, and the first one to feature collaboration with my editors. This story starts from Cup's perspective, giving some motive for her to cheat on Carrot, which will eventually lead to a huge misunderstanding that nearly tears the marriage apart and sends Carrot off to Pinkie Pie. Eventually it will incorporate some of the ideas beginning to sprout in "Pink Temptation," and I'm really excited to see where I can take this.

I mentioned some editors that I got shortly before "Pink Temptation" was cancelled. Those are Karrakaz (a great critic in the positive sense of the word) and Steel Resolve (author of Green, he has truly fantastic ideas). Both of them have been invaluable in my "Equestrian Pie" rewrite and in ideas for other stories as well. I come up with the basic premise, and they throw in some great twists and turns until I can really see a clear outline of the story. Before I was writing as I went, which didn't always work too well. Now I have some guidance and direction. If you ever get the chance to write with an editor, definitely do it. If it works out, your writing will be much better and you will have more fun doing it.

Well, that's all for now. Here's looking to the next year. It should have some great things ahead!

Hello,

It's been more than a week since I first posted Equestrian Pie on Fimfiction, so it's possible some of you have been waiting quite a while for Chapter 2. Karrakaz and I pored over the draft I had today and it's close to being ready to submit. We'll both look over it again tomorrow (hopefully Steel gets the chance to look it over as well) and I'll be submitting as soon as that's done.

Thank you for your patience, and I hope you enjoy it!

Before I delved into the world of My Little Pony fanfiction, I used to make a few videos using Mario Paint Composer, a free program based on the music maker in the SNES game Mario Paint. I was looking for a version of the Offspring's Self Esteem, and couldn't find it. So I made it myself. Enjoy!

And yes, I'm still working on the new Equestrian Beauty. I've got one chapter done and another one drafted.

Hello,

So, now that I've actually got editors for this story, we at first tried to work with what was already written.  We realized that in Chapter 1, the actions taking place were already starting to unravel.  They didn't make sense in the context of the characters.

What followed was a nearly three hour long Skype chat in which the three of us—Steel Resolve, Karrakaz, and myself—completely planned out an entirely different story.  The ideas we had were so radically different from what was going on that we decided it was time to replace the whole thing.

The whole thing.

I realize this might piss a lot of you off, but I assure you what the three of us came up with is far better than what I originally intended to write.  The only reason I'm not just cancelling this and writing a brand new story is because Karrakaz liked the title (go figure).

So, effectively, this version of Equestrian Beauty is cancelled.  As soon as the first few chapters of the new version are ready, I will be deleting all of the old chapters.  It will be like a totally new story.  I'll leave this story up, but under a different title and under the status Cancelled.  Thank you, Bysen, for that idea.

Thanks for all your feedback during my attempt to write this on my own.  Now that I have two brilliant writers on board editing my work, I promise what will come out will be amazing.  You won't even miss the old story once this one is done.

Hello,

When I first started writing this story, I was intending on taking it in a completely different direction.  However, with the assistance of Steel Resolve and Karrakaz, we came up with a completely different track for this story to take.  Because my old ideas no longer work, we had to fix a few of the chapters.  I'll explain these fixes below:

Chapter 1 featured Cup Cake's and Carrot Cake's first fight.  I made Carrot Cake more involved in the fight instead of making him a passive punching bag for Cup Cake's blows.  This is to show that animosity in this relationship comes from both sides.

Chapter 4 featured some minor edits.  Nothing worth reading over, I just mention it here for the sake of completion.

In Chapter 8, Carrot Cake threatened Pinkie Pie to keep her quiet about their kiss.  I have removed this threat from their dialogue because I am now setting up a different relationship for the two of them.

Chapter 9 features the most significant edits.  At first, Pinkie Pie was afraid of Carrot Cake because he threatened her.  Now she is only confused about his actions and her own emotions.  I added a whole new section relaying her confusing thoughts.

The fight between the Cakes in Chapter 11 went through some revision to make Cup Cake a more sympathetic character, instead of the spiteful bitch I was portraying her as.  This will be important for later.

If you want to look at these chapters to see the changes for yourself, feel free.  As for where the story is going, you'll see.  It's going to be a bit less morbid than I originally intended and should be a much more entertaining read because of it.  Just wait'll you see Chapter 12, which I'll post before midnight EST.

Cheers!

Hello,

As some of you may have noticed, I've been consistently updating Equestrian Beauty every Saturday.  However, I am not sure in which direction to take the story.  Another author has requested to discuss it with me, and I don't want to post any new chapters until after he and I figure out where this story should go.  I hope no one minds too much, and I'm sorry for the delay.

EDIT:  Actually had a talk with this author tonight, and his ideas were so brilliant that they've reinvigorated me to take this story in a totally new direction.  So you'll be seeing another Equestrian Beauty chapter tomorrow, as usual.  Thank you, Steel Resolve!

(The following was just an April Fool's joke.  Sorry if I got anyone's hopes up.)

Hey everyone,

I'm happy to announce that I will be writing a sequel to Filly Fooling!  I hated the way I ended it, and I feel like there's more to the story I could delve into.  For example, what happens at the wedding of Applejack and Rainbow Dash?  What challenges do Big Mac and Twilight face as new parents?  Will Rarity ever get over her atrocious acts towards Spike?

Hold on tight, everypony.  This one's gonna be a doozy.

Also, I have a gold account.  That's fucking hilarious.

EDIT:  Oh, never mind.  I only appeared gold to myself, but not to other people.  Oops.

I don't read the fanfiction on this site as much as I used to, and that's a real shame, because there are some damned good stories in my Favorites list.  Does anyone else have this problem?  I'm sure some people do, but I want to know how bad it is so I can compare.

Carry on!

I'd say this is a fairly nice milestone to make a comment on.  Never thought I'd get that many views when I first started this whole gig.

Here's looking to 30,000!

So it's my twenty-first birthday today.  In America, that means I'm allowed to drink, but don't expect drunk fics anytime soon.

That is all.
