    I promise this time

    Okay, so I know you have no real reason to believe me, but I already have ~1/3 of the chapter written. I just got sidetracked. I have schoolwork, that writing contest (which I could use some critique on), and now the beginnings to my couple-year-long novel idea. Hopefully I can kick it off.

    Update is upcoming

    Okay, so I just finished the FRC competition (we lost...), caught up on my schoolwork, and finished our rediculously compressed group of concerts for Chorale. It looks like I'm ready to start working on the next update.

    Story's Timeline + Brief Applogy

    Okay, first off, I'm working up a timeline for the story('s universe). I'm gonna have any spoilers blacked out for now, but I'll make a spoiler-riddled version later.
    Here it is.

    This weeks update schedule, and a quick poll

    Lets get the first part over with quickly.

    Saga of The Beast: Thursday
    Ventures of Dreams: Sunday
    Saga of The Beast: following Tuesday


    Okay, now I really have two polls, one for each story.

    VoD:
    How is it going so far (as far as OOC-ness is going)? Is it being resolved (as is my intent)?

    New cover art!

    Thanks to a friend of mine (aka "Leetwing"), Lost Kindness now has new cover art. I for one welcome the improvement, and hope to broker further deals like this in the future. Who else likes his work?

Okay, now I really have two polls, one for each story.

How is it going so far (as far as OOC-ness is going)? Is it being resolved (as is my intent)?

SoTB:
Am I giving Brother Cleon enough cbaeacter development? In other words: would you like to see more of him, or should I keep him to the "minimalistic guide" that he was before?


I look forward to your feedback.
Also, does anyone here have any knowledge in designing fictional religions? I need to make three of them for a story I have planned, and it's getting a bit overwhelming, since I don't know what I'm doing.

celestial (not celestia): they are basicly sientoligy, or other words belive in sience and the stars are what they worship :unsuresweetie::scootangel::applecry:

spade slick :twilightsmile:

and straeh :twilightoops:


these are simple but as far as religoins go, i will hook you up soon. i haven't though of it latly. tell me if they are ok. i love spade slick. :twilightblush: such a bad ass :rainbowdetermined2: killing the main carector :unsuresweetie:

863326 I got the first part, but can you explain the rest a bit?

Also, what about the poll?

863427 remember i haven't read a lot latly. i have tryed to catchup to seson 3 but am in 2 20 right now. sorry.:pinkiesad2:

I think you are doing things right so far.:twistnerd:

For SoTB: I think Cleon can go either way, the best choice is to do whatever you feel like as it will often result in the best content when the writer is comfortable with the designs of the story.

On the subject of religions: I would say the very beginning is to determine whether you are starting a 'monotheism', a 'polytheism' or a religion which is not based upon the worship of a god. Then there are the ways in which the followers honor and revere their god(s) usually through prayer, monuments, or feats of accomplishment (including things such as war).

These are some of the very basest characteristics of a religion, I hope I could help.
Write on!

866928 thanks! I've actually gotten the frameworks for two of the three done, but today I hope to get some actual content written in the story. Now if only I could decide what order to do the chapter in...

OKAY! So, I think it would be quite eventful if you put more character in Cleon, if you feel as though you hadn't. My point being that he has now become a important factor towards Fluttershy and to the history as well. Another reason is that since he has his view on why and how he is the Minister (Note: I may be a tad off on some things since my 2 week hiatus..) had given him a initial grant of being more than just an guide or static character.

Feels good to be back!:raritystarry:

868409 Y'know, I still can't figure out what title to give him. I'm rather upset about that, since I've invented the frameworks of three religions just in the past week, but I can't do it. There isn't really a precedent for it that I can draw off of.
Eg: for most titles, I borrow them from other cultures, usually altering them a little.
Unfortunately, I need to find the right word. I'm sure ill get it soon though.
