Half the time I don't even know how I do what I seem to do so well. I try not to think too hard on it, for fear of breaking myself in the process.

    Twilight was more than willing to keep her life as a nudist private, and deal with the complications as proved necessary. But Rarity would hear absolutely none of it, insisting that the rest of their friends should know about it as well.

    I have an idea, and I need some feedback because this might be a big one

    It goes without saying, I'm not the fastest writer around these parts. Not anymore at least. Anymore it takes time to get an idea figured out, written down, and refined to the point I want to release it for being read. But this doesn't lend itself well to getting the chapters and updates churned out. And unfortunately it leaves you with more ideas being backlogged than you want to admit. It

    Small update

    Ever since the last chapter I've been stumped on what to do with the next chapter.

    I'm happy to report that I'm 1.3K words into the next chapter, so things are slowly but surely getting done.

    Not dead

    Neither I nor the story are dead as of the time of this posting.

    Turns out writing Ulquiorra from the outside perspective of uninitiated ponies is a lot harder than I thought it'd be, and I'm having to spend a lot more time in the brainstorming stage than I'm accustomed to.

    Why?

    Why is it so damn hard to write at times?

    Why does the prospect of sitting down to type up an idea and give it physical form, seem to just suck the life and enthusiasm right out of you?

    A thought

    The current chapters for HIE are proving to be a lot harder to write than I thought. Even harder when you've got distracted thoughts flaunting themselves at you.

Sorry folks · 5:50pm Aug 1st, 2023

As much as I hate to, I'm cancelling this story and won't be updating it any further. I've simply lost all inspiration for continuing this story, despite having ideas for what future chapters would've contained.

That's a shame, but I get where you're coming from (looking at the multiple story ideas I start but never complete). I appreciate you deciding to be open about it instead of just vanishing into the aether as it were going totally radio silent/infinite hiatus.

If you don't mind, would you be willing to reveal some of your brain thoughts?

*crosses another one of the more interesting stories off her list*

A shame but in the end your choice.

Not at all. It'll do some good to let someone read them, rather than letting them fade away into the passage of time.

In no particular order:

For where the story left off, there really wasn't much that was groundbreaking for the dinner and resulting slumber party that would follow. Although I contemplated having Applejack and Twilight bunking together in the same bed again so they could experience some skin-on-skin contact that was planned out.

Fluttershy would eventually be read into what was going on. Her initial concern would be that Twilight is safe and alright, and once certain of those facts would be very accepting and unshaken because she understands that mammals shedding their fur is a natural process.

A Crusader situation would eventually arise that left Sweetie Belle's fur horribly stained and impossible to get clean, leaving Rarity no choice but to use the fur removal spell on her, much to her little sister's horror. But ever the good big sister, Rarity would also use the spell on herself to Sweetie Belle wouldn't be alone. And once cleaned up Sweetie Belle would discover that the slimy mental image conjured from her discovery with Twilight was due to her being sweaty at the time, and once dried off bare skin really isn't that bad. Although it'd be after dinner before their fur is regrown.

Pinkie would continue trying to remain supportive of Twilight and their friends while Twilight did her best to help Pinkie overcome her trauma, which would eventually lead to Pinkie being Pinkie and jumping in with all four hooves, by using the specialized crystals and not looking at herself until after her friends saw her first, and feed off of their support and positive energy to bolster her optimism and help her become more comfortable. We would also see that Pinkie's skin is far darker and far more mottled than any of them, with numerous ancient shaving nicks littering her body that've long since healed over.

We would've eventually seen a group slumber with three furless ponies and three furred ponies with fun and games, maybe even a game of reverse strip poker instituted by Rarity after learning more about the human world. She would also pick up on conversation elements from Fluttershy indicating that she'd like to give it a try, but doesn't want to leave Rarity as the only one still with her fur on, which would eventually prompt Rarity to pull a Pinkie despite not being particularly keen on it herself, simply so Fluttershy could partake without feeling guilty.

If the story went on long enough for Starlight Glimmer to be introduced, she'd take to the idea of baldness like a fish to water and absolutely love the idea since baldness is an equalizer all on its own and a far more peaceful approach to what she wanted to do.

If the story went on long enough for the Student Six to be a thing, Starlight was going to reveal to Smolder that she, Twilight, and Thorax had been working on a side project that would allow ponies to utilize a version of changeling magic that only extends skin deep, but would allow for them to shift between a furred and furless state with ease.

Those are the biggest ones that stick out most in my mind.

Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I didn't want to end it, but I feel like my creativity is slowly withering.

But if anyone has a desire to ghostwrite future chapters and introduce their own take on the available notes, I'd upload them as guest chapters like I did the Full (Frontal) Moon Over Equestria story.

If it helps at all, I'd say you had some pretty decent ideas, and if you ever wanted to chat about them I'd be more than willing to help out how/where I could. I'm currently very slowly dabbing at a story idea that I started about a week or two ago so I know the struggle. Hope you find your muse again, even if it isn't with this particular story.:twilightsmile:

Which story are you cancelling? Please don't tell me it's Hollow in Equestria, that's my favourite one.

5740417
Hollow in Equestria will never be cancelled as long as I draw breath and have internet access.

No, the story I'm regrettably cancelling is It's Just Baldness. A fun side project story about Twilight bringing the human concept of nudism to Equestria and trying to adapt it over to pony culture, but one for which I've lost my inspiration to write further.

Although I'm willing to take guest chapters if anyone is willing to tackle the idea and provide their own take.

I'd like to see you do another ENF story

Forgive me but my brain's not working properly at the moment. What exactly does ENF stand for in this context?

Perhaps if the inspiration strikes, and I can do it in a tasteful manner.
