Awesome. How I learned to shut up and love the Blog. · 7:15am Apr 16th, 2012
Right, so that's how you blog. There's my herp-dittly-derp moment. First I would like to say to all those who love my story.
Thank you. You've pushed me into being creative in new and interesting ways that have eaten up my freetime. It makes me wish I tried to take up writing sooner.
I have shown my story to most in the Equestria Daily Chat and they seem to love it.
The first two chapters might get a re-write expanding chapter one a bit, but really, I am leaving it open and vague for a reason.
For those who don't like my story?
Your loss. There are plenty of things out there for you to like. You can't please everypony and if you try, you'll please no pony, particularly yourself. One person who shall not be named told me they hated everything about my fic. (If you don't want spoilers don't read down, Turn back now and read the story) The shameless self-insert, the fact that Anthony broke down mentally when facing the Counsel of Nine for the second time to the fact that Celestia turned out to be the Good Guy doing bad things for the good of all Equestria. They even gave me a list.
I found that it would have utterly corrupted the story that I wanted to tell, and make it sound more like a self-inserted power fantasy fic rather than the tragic personal horror/adaptation/mind feather that it is meant to be.
I am wiling to take suggestions, ideas for NPCs, and idea puns to weave into the stories that I am going to write.
However my story is my story. Don't like it? There are plenty of Cupcake fics, Rainbow Factory Fics, Fics were you and Discord become the best of buddy buddies and destroy the world or where ponies go insane and kill all the students in their classes.
I don't do those kind of stories. Nor am I really going to go into the uber hard core clop fics. Call me a prude. Call me what you like. I have set stories in my head, that whiles things can be added, subtracted or multiplied on, the core of the story won't change. Somethings will happen that I have in my head.
There aren't going to be any real "one shots" among the My Little Heartbreak Serious. Everything that is there is going to be there for a reason. The devil is in the details after all, so pay attention colts and fillies, there will be a quiz at the end of this whole thirteen story train wreck. You can make guesses to what will happen, but I'm not going to give any outright answers.
So for all those who are reading, enjoying, writing spin offs (And when the spin offs from other artists come I will provide links.) drawing fan art (oh please oh please oh please do that...)
I thank you. I really hope you enjoy this massive trainwreck I am writing. I know I sure am.
The way I see it? You've got a bunch of people that like the story. Then you have haters, which means that you're at least decent. Pretty sure that every good person at anything has a little group of people that just love to rain on their parade. Tbh the only problem I had with the story was that Celestia seemed ooc, but it's understandable given the circumstances. Good luck on getting to EqD!
72532 EqD doesn't like Self Inserts however

Yeah well, most people don't like self inserts because so many people do them terribly. Yours isn't that bad, and after editing and polishing (because EqD is so finicky about that kind of stuff, or at least I'm told) I'm sure it could make it.
How did he not like Celestia being a bad guy for the greater good? I loved that part
Also if you give me permission I could put Anthony into a bonus chapter of my story, but it would have to be when he advances enough in the learning about harmony thing. Ooh, I already have several ideas I could do.
72539 You'll have to pm me and toss these ideas at me. Remember I have things that I have to do in these stories... There are things I am willing to do to and with heartbreak and things I'm not.
good lesson you learned there. To please everybody is to please nobody.
Haters gonna hate, Potatoes going to potate
as long as you enjoy what your doing thats all what cares.

Way I see it, you could have the absolute most awesome <whatever> in the world, and there are still going to be those who don't like it. 'Tis just a fact of life un/fortunately. Yup yup!
It has been quite the mental and creative orgy, hasn't it? Especially when we start feeding off each other, yeah?
Well, I stay away from emotions mostly, to concentrate on the "facts".
For example, TCB: Ch12-17 and my new story, Tripartite, coming soon!
