    Round as a melon and sweet as a mango

    I keep having dreams of Romania, I don't know why. The latest was interesting and involved a small village deep in the woods. I'm, hopefully, going to be able to finish writing a short story using that dream as inspiration.

    Friendship Truly is Magic

    The other night I forced myself to work on my story that has been languishing in Limbo with a handful of paragraphs left to write and/or type out. I don't think I'd wrote a single word for it in weeks, if not a few months. I don't even know. It's hard for me to keep track of time. This past year has been brutal.

    A Crazy Pony Dream

    This one started out fairly normal and went crazy fast. In the beginning I was at an ice cream parlor. The parlor was letting people bring in fresh fruit to make their own ice cream. I had strawberries and it was served to me in a waffle cone with a chocolate lining.

    Lore: Simple or Complex?

    Update: Aha, venting about it may have helped. I think I came up with a better angle, one that still uses the characters that were involved but isn't as lore-intensive. Only problem is it will need some re-writing, of a section I just re-wrote. :/

    My Heart's Right There...

    I went back to what used to be my summertime home-away-from-home today. It had been years since I had been out there; a quiet little place along one of the most beautiful lakes in the world.

Twilight Wanderer - Act II Updated · 10:29am Aug 7th, 2013

Lots of changes here, especially to the reindeer kingdom section. Twilight spends a few hours, and likely several pages instead of a few paragraphs, with the reindeer now.

This one took a while to update since I was adding a ton of content and thinking up the lore and stuff for the reindeer. I think I ended up almost doubling the word count on it. When I originally wrote this story I had it split up into 'acts' like you see in Diablo as a little reference to that, so I guess a longer chapter, or act in this case, isn't necessarily a bad thing.

I added a few paragraphs for when Twilight first arrives at Evergreen Citadel. The description I came up for it is sort of what I envisioned back when I first thought about it. I tend to visualize a lot of the things as I write (sometimes I even go over dialogue with myself in whispered tones if no one is around to get the feel of the scene going down).

I haven't done too much with last section of the chapter after Silver Shock is introduced. I provided a description for her and made a few alterations, but no major re-working like the reindeer section got, yet.

I'm kind of partial to Silver Shock, so I tried to make an illustration for her. My knowledge and ability to use my paint shop program has apparently been evaporating, as it was kind of a pain to do. She was supposed to be sitting at a table in the cider tavern (I even looked up Hearth's Warming Eve screenshots to try and simulate the interior, since the building is meant to be from that era) but I kept running into problems and just went with her and her book. She was the important part anyway.
