    Grey Guard Pony passed away on 12/7/2018.

    Sorry, I'm Zalabar; a friend who was asked to spread the word. Somehow I didn't think of posting here. Instead it was... well, direct message to the few we both knew. Phyco put up a blog on it back in December; https://www.fimfiction.net/blog/838448/dust-in-the-wind

    It was the cancer, and GGP passed in their sleep.

    Not Dead....Yet

    My apologies for the prolonged radio silence coming from this account. It's been a rough past couple of months.

    Fuck cancer so hard.

    New Rainsverse Fic!

    Just giving my followers who enjoy the Rainsverse a heads up. The next fic in that AU has passed the que and is now available to start reading.

    In this one, we begin to delve into the fallout of Chroma's attack on The Heartlands and the fate of the Everfree Rangers in particular. If you're interested in seeing what happens next, go give it a look!

    Writing Lessons: Blood and Ponies

    ...This fic exhausted me.

    If there is one over-arching lesson I learned from this little crossover is that having a plan for your story, even if you end up deviating from it, is important. It gives you at least a loose guide that you can follow and for someone with ADD having something that can help keep you on focused and on track ends up being really important.

    Weird Stores

    I had a medical appointment today and saw two of the weirdest stores I ever have on the way to and from the appointment.

    On the way out I passed Valhalla: Indoor Axe Throwing.

    On the way back I passed Break Room: Therapeutic Demolition.

    It is now a goal in my life to visit both of these stores out of sheer, morbid curiosity.

Re-Writing · 4:18am Mar 2nd, 2014

So, for the past month or so, (maybe longer, it's become hard to tell), I've been working on re-writing my first fic, a Skitch in Time.

The reasons are many, but most of them all come back to the fact that I've wanted to make the story better in general. I want to give the Mane Six more to do in the story, and play up the mystery aspect a little bit more. Things are being switched around, some character actions cleaned up some, as well as other improvements.

Originally, the plan was to finish it up, and then upload it all at once. But as focusing in on this re-write has been draining my attention away from other writing projects of mine, I changed my mind. So, there will be one new chapter on the revised A Skitch in Time a week, starting today!

I got enough of a buffer right now, that I'll be able to finish the re-write and get back to some of my other ideas, instead of just focusing on the one and trying to finish it all up before returning to other writing.

I hope that you'll all enjoy it. :twilightsmile:

Personally, I enjoyed the original version since it had more depth and plot.

To be fair J, I think that the new version will have plenty of depth and plot. It might just be hard to see that since the current one only has one actual chapter out right now.

1887013 My mistake, when I saw the repost it was marked "Complete" you might want to fix that.

1887027

Whoops. Yeah, that's a mistake. :twilightoops:

1887032 Love the cover for it by the way.

Gates knocked that one out of the park, considering that he went back in and re-vectored those scenes from the show to add Skitch into them. Bang up job, really.

I had just read a skitch in time in it's entirety several days ago and I do admit parts did seem a little forced but it was still a good story. I am interested to see what has been changed.
