Breath of Plagues


I write mostly serious adventure stories and maybe a random feelsy fic now and again. Interested in dark stuff more than anything.

    Ever been sent to Equestria but hated it?

    That's the premise behind Ponified Without Consent, a collab between names behind fics like Asylum, Puppet to her fame, Believing Stories, and the Warm Diary of Twilight Sparkle (oh yeah and some guy who wrote some thing called For A New Dawn).

    Chapter redo. What has changed:

    Okay then. As usual I will attempt to keep this super short. I finished redoing the first chapter, and decided to rename it as the prologue since so many people felt it was all setup. You're not wrong. It kinda was all setup.

    For A New Dawn - Status and call for your input.

    Okay I'll try to be nice and brief with this so I can get the ball rolling ASAP. There have been multiple trusted sources that have criticized major core facets of For A New Dawn and the reasoning that's been provided is very justified. It's been a little disappointing to say the least. I won't get into it. Basically my first success in writing really and I get a lot of bad reviews

    I found something awesome!!!

    Okay so this thing is called an auto reviewer.

    At first I thought: Man this thing is stupid. A robot can't tell me anything! A person is needed. I'll just put in my latest chapter just to see how awesome I made it.

    Finally...

    Man, things are always so hectic. Somehow I've found time to tidy up the next chapter and viola, it is le fini. Enjoy.

    Big thanks to Destructorspace. He helped fix my writers block and tidied up the last loose ends in the plot so I could finish this thing.

Holy crap was I wrong. This thing is amazing! It caught so many errors that I didn't see after cycling through time after time. It's a good thing I gave this a spin before my reviews came in. Umbra would've raped me...

I'm going to fix these in the meantime. None of it is a big deal; Mostly just misplaced periods in dialogue (always had a habit of making that specific error). Quite a few adverbs too, but I like them when they're kept under control. Anyways, check it out. You'll be surprised.

I, for one, welcome our computer editor overlords.

Hmm. How interesting. I don't think it'll be better than a human editor, but it's definitely worth looking into.

EDIT: I used it to check a passage of something I was writing. It caught nothing other than those extra spaces I sometimes leave between sentences, and what I intentionally capitalized to add emphasis. Although the thing isn't fantastic, I like the word counts and the other useful tools it has. I can say that it's going under my favorites.

Oh my gosh, I never expected anything that awesome. I totally want to check everything I write through it now. Need to watch my passive voice. Never thought a computer checker would do that. :pinkiehappy:

Enjoy. I like share useful resources when I find them.
