Sorry For Being Gone, But There's a Reason: I'm Not Writing Ponies Anymore :/ · 2:36am Sep 23rd, 2013
I said it in a comment on my user page, but I think I need to say it here as well. I officially leave Horseshoes up to interpretation because I can't find the energy to finish that bloated monstrosity. It's not that I gave up writing. I just became interested in other things. Don't expect me to write Ponies anytime soon. Impossible? I wouldn't say that. Improbable? Definitely.
If you still want to see my writing, it would have to be in a different fandom. I've started writing for the ValjeanXJavert pairing (valvert) in the Les Miserables fandom. If you don't know that fandom, fair warning: it has angst and feels galore for a lot of it. Some good and happy stuff too, but Ponies it sure as hell ain't. If you don't know the pairing, it's basically grumpy old men having sex. They're not always old, but 99% of the time they are.
For my part, I try to balance the negative with the positive now, and I DO NOT do all the crazy stuff that Horseshoes had going on. That was a failed experiment, to put it simply. A story that was far bigger than was necessary. I could have tied all the insanity into a pretty strong point (basically "don't trust all your memories", think of that what you will), but I feel too removed from the story as a whole to carry that point to fruition.

I'm sorry for not saying this sooner. I think I was hoping I would get excited about the story again. But that's dragged on for months now. I'm moving on XD
Thanks for liking/commenting on these stories, and I hope you enjoy them for what they are! Even Horseshoes, that confused little nugget of neuroses! And I hope anyone interested in my new work will find them enjoyable as well. Have a good one!
So THAT'S why you haven't updated in forever.
I just now saw this post.
