    I'm back!

    Alright! I'm working on a new chapter of Mane Invasion right now. Believe it or not, my knowledge of Gundam lore was limited to Minovsky Particles and the Dynasty Warriors Gundam games before, but now I know more than a friend of mine that has watched Gundam since Wing first aired. I'm hoping to put this knowledge to use in the new chapter!
    I've also gotten quite a bit better at drawing too.

    I'm so sorry guys...

    I keep meaning to write the next chapter... I can't seem to focus on writing at all. It sucks cause I really enjoy writing these stories, but I'm so bad at getting it done. I'm not going to cancel the stories, but I don't know when they'll be updated. I hope you all understand...

    I'm not dead.

    I'm sorry about the lack of updates. I've been focusing more on drawing. I'm going to try putting out a new chapter soon.

I'm having a really hard time with writing right now. People like Dueling Dash more than Mane Invasion, but I want to work on both. I just can't decide which one to focus on >.> Feel free to tell me your opinions. The feedback might help me decide.

From my view, even though I haven't read Mane Invasion, just by giving it a glance, there's more support for Dueling Dash.

But I will read MI as soon as I can to give a better opinion, just what I think so far.

(EDIT) So after reading MI, I think you'll have an easier time writing DD, seeing as how it's more humorous and more easier to get into; with Yugioh, you have over 1000's of cards and many archtypes for the duelists to use for their characters. The duels can be short but epic or funny, or probably be lengthy to write in more backstory of the characters and what's going on behind the scenes of the tournament.

Gundam is a more heavier invested kinda story, to me at least. I mean that there's guaranteed to be more action for this side, but OC ponies are dying or will die and for me, OC's are hard to get attached to as a reader until you see a good amount of story.

DD has the mane cast and canon characters so people will be more interested in that one from the start. I hope the best for both though, that's my 2 cents.

Thank you. Just the fact that you went through the trouble of reading both stories to give me good feedback means a ton to me :twilightsmile: I'll stick to Dueling Dash for now. Thanks again.

Note: I wasn't originally planning on using OCs for Mane Invasion, but it just wasn't going to work with the Mane 6's personalities. I respect the fact that people don't really get attached to OCs, but I couldn't seem to make it work with canon ponies. :twilightblush: Plus, the canon Gundam characters are supposed to be the main part of the story. I just felt that I should write some of the story from a Mane pilot's point of view.

Note 2: Thank for wishing me luck as well. I wish you luck with your future endeavors in return

No probs. Also, I'm more a fan of Yugioh than Gundam; I've watched nearly every season/series and played a lot of the games. As for Gundam though, I only played the games and didn't watch too much of it :pinkiecrazy:

Well I'm glad that YuGiOh fans like Dueling Dash. I wasn't too sure about it for a while, but people seem to enjoy it :twilightsmile: So I have fun writing it.
