As the Finale Closes . . . (I'm Gonna Need Some Prereaders, Yo) · 8:47am May 10th, 2014
I suppose it is time for me to start talking about my story plans. See, we are about to go through another "pony drought," which also means that I will be writing finally. I have been swamped with school, my job, and simply living, and that has stopped me from being able to do anything. Hurray for summer!
Anyway, here is the post where I actually outlie my incomplete ideas that I plan on finishing, along with the third chapter of Nightmares. I'll have more information about prereading at the bottom.
Pinkie Pie and Cranky Doodle Save the World
Status: In Need of Massive Revisions
Information So Far: Look at the title, ya lazies.
Spike the Traveler
Status: Currently Unwritten
Information So Far: Spike somehow is now forcibly time traveling. It is an epic-length story that will probably be the hardest story I will ever work
on, but I am willing to make the sacrifice for the well-being of writing!
The Cutie Mark Crusaders in: The Meaning of Life
Status: Currently Unwritten
Information So Far: Look at the title, ya lazies.
The Day That Twilight Nearly Killed Spike
Status: 570 Words
Information So Far: This is a story in response to the Equestria Daily prompt where you must make a story with Spike as he lives with whatever
crazy consequences come out from it. My first idea was actually a comedic mature story, and I am thinking of making it that instead.
"Why Am I a Princess?"
Status: Element 115 Words
Information So Far: I had originally started writing this story as a response to some prompt for Equestria Daily a long time ago, but I never
finished it. This is intensely an emotional story where Twilight goes through a crisis over why she is called a princess even though the town never
treated her as such. Even though current canon fights this, I can mold it. This might be in first-person.
One Little Mistake (Working Title)
Status: Sent to the Monkeys for Ideas
Information So Far: I am undecided on this, but I have some ideas working.
Nightmares Chapter Three: Seeds of Upheaval
Status: 1215 Words
Information So Far: This is working its way to the end, but this chapter is going to be a tricky one. That is why this leads me to my next point.
PREREADERS
I am actually going to start opening this up. Why? Because I need reliable people to look at my work and give honest opinions. My normal crew is great, but I need fresh people. This is not to say that all of my normal prereaders are inadequate; rather, I am just looking to improve my writing through people giving me their thoughts.
SO, let's go ahead and start by saying I am not asking for editors. You are not obligated to correct my grammar. You need only read and give opinions. Commenting on sections that need work on the doc itself would be great, and if you REALLY want to edit it, go ahead. But know that I retain the ultimate decision on whether or not the "errors" are actually errors. I won't be a dick about you saying something is wrong when it isn't, but I will tell you plainly "no" and why. I am rather protective about editing because I like to do that myself (or not at all, really; I try to make it as perfect as possible from the start).
If you are interested, go ahead and comment at the bottom or directly send me a message. I know I have quite a few recluses that merely read my blogs and not comment on them (I know who you are), so I am fine if you want to keep on being . . . conspicuous. Anonymity is a valuable thing sometimes.
Anyway, that's all I have so far. I am most likely going to think of some more stories to write, but that is going to be a long time from now. I have writing and stuff to do.
I am most likely not going to actually get you guys to start working until school finally ends, though I have stuff for you to read that isn't finished in the mean time. I would also love to bounce ideas off of you all.
Take care and have some music and pictures!
My body is ready.
Come on, now. This is a really cool rendition of Twilight.
I'm in, I love to help
just let me know what and when
I would volunteer for the pre-reading, but I'm afraid that I would only be making a fool of myself. You're in a whole different class than me when it comes to knowing what a story is missing, and I'd only end up embarrassing myself in front of you by telling you--who undoubtedly knows more than me when it comes to writing--what your story needs and how to fix it.

It's more me asking what you thought than asking what needs to be done to correct things that are wrong. Though, if you say something was odd, I will definitely go and try to fix it.
2095109 Did I mention that I would probably try to sound unnecessarily sophisticated in my opinions of your story to try and impress you?
If you can deal with that, then you can drop me a PM when the time comes.

Don't worry; I have been there, done that. XP I know the feel.

I wouldn't mind giving you my thoughts. Once I get Nightmares off my rl list, of course.
It'd be an honour, considering how high regard hundreds of people hold you in.
To pre read for you would be an honor. If you'd like, I'll pre read whatever you want me to. You know where to find me if you want me to look at something.
I can't wait to read them, if the titles are any indication.
I will happily preview anything you need. Just let me know and I'll get back to you as soon possible.
I look forward to more of your stories. I would offer but I don't think I'd have enough time on my hands to really be of use. Plus I'm bad at giving my opinion on stuff. Nothing is bad, nothing is good, it's all meh with me besides a few select things. Hard to impress, hard to disappoint. Not really the best person for pre-reading.
I hope you find some good people though. :)
Also, that attack on titan pic. :D
