    Hello

    Hey guys!

    I had this strange, nostalgic urge to run back over here and look around. Damn this site has changed a fair bit in the last... 43 weeks since I last popped in.

    So, what's up?

    How to Make YOUR Blurb/Description Better


    So, I've been spending a fair bit of time here. It's a site for writers, similar to Fimfiction, but a tad more... general.

    Infatuation

    So, My friend Malus did a thing.

    You're not obliged to, but if you feel like it, take a gander. It's a letter, of sorts.

    LINKY!

    How You Go About It - The Editing Process

    I've been writing for a little over two years now, both as a terribly time-consuming hobby, and for work. When I started, I thought that rereading, editing and drafting were sins. They were wastes of my precious time. Now, after many a mistake, my views have changed.

You SURE it's not some mistake? (No reall, I was never approved so quickly... I'll hold back my party until you're certain... might break out the streamers... just in case...)

to me
Yeep it is approved

This is Of Parasites by the way!

Oh, and my Firefly crossover fic should be up soon!

The name will be something to the affect of:

Of Bounties and Alliances

You people who write so fast make me jealous...

92353

The three step to writing a lot:
1. Give up any semblance of having a life
2. Use the STFUAW method! (Shut the frack up and write)
3. Find/steal/beg yourself some good, opinionated, editors


Oh, on another topic:
Five hundred years in the future, a renegade crew aboard a small spacecraft tries to survive as they travel the unknown parts of the galaxy and evade warring factions as well as authority agents out to get them.

Sound like a good description?

My problem is I'm just so paranoid about perfection. Short oneshots I can write pretty fast, but my planned-out, long-chapter fic takes like a month per chapter (I got stuck for a week making sure one line was just right for a character on this chapter I'm working on right now...) If I were to crap out such a long chapter quickly, I know it wouldn't be good. I just wish I could crap out long chapters quickly and of quality...

And I play a lot of videogames and watch a lot of TV... And actually go outside from time to time (LE GASP.)

Description of the crossover sounds good. I'll be the first to let Nathan Fillion know about it on Twitter when it comes out :pinkiehappy:

I hear ya, I am out of work atm, so other than taking care of the house and the lawn... I write... It actually takes me about two to three weeks to write a chapter of a long fic. That's why I recently started shooting out one-shots, so little trouble, and I get to rid myself of all these scenes in my head!

Haha! That'd be epic!

92359 I have always liked the whole space thing. I would like to see a story like that. I don't really think there are any pony-space stories. And wow. EqD likes you. They don't seem to like me much for some reason. They turned down both of my fics just because theyu didn't like the topic. Zombies for one. Niko Bellic for another one.

You sir, are very good. Congradulations on bieng liked by EqD!

92374

My ability to suck up is legendary!

And how about you send those stories over to SALT, we'll give em a look-see!

92376 SALT? I am confused.

92379
It's a review group, they do the same thing to your fic as EQD does, they REVIEW it! But it doesn't take two weeks! Also some will even hop in and edt it. All you need to do is post a link to the story in G-Docs (with comments on_ on their site (http://saltblock.blogspot.ca/) And they'll make a post for it!

I happen to know the head admin, real nice fellow!

92382 No, they didn't turn it down because my writing was bad. They turned it down becasue they didnt like the genre. For Undead Equestria thier resonse was "Sorry! Not open for zombie stuff right now."

And for wrong hospital it was. "Your throwaway meta humor is frowned upon on the blog."

92384
Ah... Well, try the zombie fic again... Of Parasites is a Zombie fic... sorta...

92386 I'm thinking about it. I mean, for what I've seen on Eqd, my fic is definately worthy. Definately no clop or high ammounts of gore. Nothing worse than what you get from FO:E I still don't know why it didn't make it. Simply turned down becasue. "Sorry, we don't like this topic despite the writing ability behind it. kthnxbye!" Just a bit of a put-out.

Congrats bro-ny:twilightsmile:

Congratulations! I knew Of Parasites was an awesome story, but man, to be approved by EqD that quickly. I thought it many times, might have said it once, but I'll say it again:

You, sir, are going places! :yay:

I think we have a new rockstar of fics! I think that you'll have your own dedicated tag in short order if this keeps up!
