    Urgh..Stupid Real Life Stuff!

    Hello Everyone!

    I'm sure some of you noticed that I have been relatively quiet for a while now. That's because I have had a lot of developments occur in real life.

    A New Story: What Mommies Do, and some other Updates

    Hello Everyone!

    First of all I want to appologize for my last blog, for those who read it. I was feeling really burned out at that point in time, and I still am a little bit. I have been taking it easy on the writing and I'm getting back into the groove of things. I have slowed myself down a bit and things are getting better.

    Making myself Finish

    This morning I woke up and looked at my page on fimfic, the same page I look at every morning before I start work or engage in a little writing, and did not feel the same enthusiasm that I used to feel when I looked at it. This past week I have not felt the same about writing fanfiction as I normally have, and after giving it some consideration I realized why, I miss my old writing.

New Stories Coming Eventually · 2:14am Mar 25th, 2012

For the few people that actually read this thing I wanted to tell you that I am currently working on two stories that I will post here...eventually lol.

I would be a lot more proactive in my fanfic writing, however the writing opportunities that I have had outside of the fandom have greatly increased, so I don't have nearly as much time to write fanfics as I used to. The two stories, appearing in the order of presentation, are...

What Mothers Do

This will be a really short fic that I am writing for, get ready to laugh hysterically, in honor of my Grandmother for mother's day. Mother's day in the US isn't for a while, but since the idea is on my mind, I wanted to go ahead and do it now. Everytime mother's day rolls around, I always think about when I was really, really little, she would rock me to sleep in her rocking chair. I never really got the chance to tell her thank you for all those times, and now I am going to do my best in this upcoming fic. In this fic however, I am going to do a mother/daughter pairing featuring one of the mane 6, though I don't know who yet.

This story isn't going to be as deep as my others, because I am going to try to write it as a children's story. So fair warning, it may end up being super cheesy.

I Worked so Hard

Ever since I wrote D-I-V-O-R-C-E, I have wanted to try my hand at another deep story, tackling a problem that sometimes exist in relationships. However in this case, it exists after the relationship. In this story, two characters have fallen out of a relationship, and they confront the problems that caused them to break up head on.

Six weeks ago, when I wrote D-I-V-O-R-C-E someone (I think it was NinesTempest), said that because of the subjects I was attempting to tackle in the fics I wrote (I had only written two at that time) I was a writer to watch. Sadly, since then, I have not really breached any super deep subjects, mainly out of fear. I want to attempt to change that with this fic. Hopefully I will be able to at least do a fair job of capturing the essence of the situation that I am presenting.

Those are the two upcoming fics.

There is one more thing I wanted to say. For those that are dissapointed with the erratic changes that I make in genre with each new story I write, the reason I make these changes is because I am still trying to find out what kind of writer I am, and what I can do and can't do. Even after 8 stories (I'm not counting my incomplete story since it isn't done yet), I am still exploring my horizons and trying different story types out. I want every story that I write to make you laugh or cry, but more than that, I want to explore and fully understand what I am capable of doing. That is what I use fanfics to do.

Anyway thank you guys for sticking with me, I hope I am able to write more stories that you will enjoy.

Remember to smile!

Never be afraid to reach deep into an emotionally conflicting idea! :pinkiehappy:
Just make sure you keep writing, kay?

Youshouldn't have fear.

You've got 118 watchers, I'm pretty sure thats all the confidence you will need.

Butterscotch has 688 for crying the fuck out loud!

Don't worry about mixing up your genres. Each one of your stories has done what it was supposed to and brought more watchers. I daresay that you are in my top three favorite writers. The only other two there are ROBCakeran, for writing the story that brought me into this and making me love sad stories, and Andrew Talon, for writing Progress. However, you, Sanity, continually bring the jerks to my heart that I have longed for for years. I may be overdoing it, but you are by far one of the best writers that I have seen. Not many things have brought tears to my eyes, and yet you always create them with your words.

It might be a bit sappy, but I will always read your works and enjoy them. Even if your switching of styles and genres removes others, I will still follow. I hope my words and the other trackers' bring you a smile and let you continue your writing.
