    Starting up again

    I forgot how easy and hard this writing thing is. Coming up with content is pretty easy for me. Typing it out is pretty easy for me. The hard part is editing it satisfactorily and potentially maintaining continuity. I could really use someone to bounce Ideas off of. I posted a chapter earlier today and already have another 2100 words written in the next chapter.

    [no title]

    I'm very excited. My stories are now both in the positive as far as upvotes vs. downvotes. In forced Derek finally starts his transformation to pony, will it go smoothly? Probably not, that wouldn't be a very interesting story :) I'm very excited about the things that are about to start happening in Forced Perspective.

    Chapter 6 of Forced Perspective

    I'm very excited one of my stories finally broke even on upvotes vs downvotes. I'm working on chapter 6 of Forced Perspective at the moment and will try to have it out by the end of the weekend depending on my editor's availability. I really want to reveal Derek's new name but the story must progress further before it makes sense for him to give up Derek. I'm very excited about this new chapter,

    looking for feedback

    Right now I have two stories that kind of budded from the same idea. I wrote story 1 (changing perspective) and rushed to the clop. I got a lot of feedback saying that the grammar was terrible (which it was, I intend to fix it at some point but right now I think adding new content is more important than fixing up the old stuff) and a few saying that I hadn't developed my main character.

    Here goes chapter one of my new story

    Lets see if this one ends up any better than the last one. I'm pretty disappointed with my first attempt. So i listened to all of the criticism and made a second attempt. Wish me luck!

Well story one was...educational. · 5:44pm Jul 8th, 2014

I recently posted my first story. It was my first serious attempt and putting my thoughts out there. It was met with...mixed results... I discovered that while my idea was solid and I liked some of the scenes, my characters were massively underdeveloped. They were just names that things happened to, as opposed to personalities and a collection of learned experiences. With some great tips from Bobdat I'm going to give the story a whole new beginning from the ground up.

In addition to the characters needing a major overhaul I also think i rushed into the clop. I think the reader needs to be invested in the character and their emotions before I have the characters get too intimate with anyone. The old story will stay up until i'm happy with my rewrite, but please don't judge it too harshly as I recognize I've made some mistakes and I'm currently in the process of fixing them.

Chapter two and three will receive less major rewrites but will definitely be pushed back for later in the story. If you have any feedback with this in mind, I would love to hear it.

Thank you

Well, for clop, I didn't really mind if it was fast, as for the character's developpment, for a first fic, I don't think it was bad, nothing cold prevent you to develop it later in the story.

But I just have a question, will it be futa all along ?

The futa thing is only until Derek starts to become noticeably pony, It was just a vehicle for him to start the process. I honestly don't know if that part will even make it through the rewrite.


Edit: I'm thinking i like that aspect of the story. I'm probably going to keep it, definitely in the beginning and we'll see where it goes.
