I Don't Even... (Slightly Coherent Ramblings) · 3:10am Sep 5th, 2014
Greetings followers!
Holy crap! He's blogging! Alert the media!
Yeah, I'm in a bit of a random and happy mood. As most of you know, I'm a fair to moderate bit anti-social, so blog posts are like having a root canal with no anesthetic for me. Also, I've ingested a very copious amount of vodka, so I'm looking and feeling my very best (bonus points if you can name the folk artist who used that in a popular song in relation to Thanksgiving).
All that random drabble aside, I'm here to update you all on my current status in terms of writing and general tomfoolery. I logged into DeviantArt earlier today to link an image to a mod, to ask him if the cover art I wanted to use for one of my stories would pass the "NSFW" standard. He eventually got back to me and said that I was clear to roll. One thing lead to another, and I wound up checking my feed for the artists that I follow there, and I stumbled upon an image by the venerable and uber-talented ECMAJOR. And it wasn't even remotely related to pony (which he has very good art of, you should check it out, especially his Fleur work). It was a very alluring image of a Pokemon; specifically, Dragonair (yeah, you read that right).
Seeing this image honestly turned me on. I can't explain it, nor do I even want to attempt it. It just did. It made me want to write a mature story in which a very lucky human gets to have sexy times with said Pokemon character. Unfortunately, this site isn't focused on Pokemon, so I can't post it here; I will, however, still write the story and link it to whomever wants to read it once it's done. I will post another blog when that time comes. Rejoice, party, huzzah, whatever!
But that's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. It was seeing this image that made me realize that I have nothing to fear in terms of my writing, and that I'm as good as a majority of you all say I am; I just need to tell my problems to piss off and focus on having a good time with whatever I write, but still make it grammatically sound.
And I'm going to have fun with it. I'm going to fail. I'll have to re-write things. I'll have to learn. That's all part of what I've been afraid to attempt. I despise failure; everyone does. I need to reach deep down and pull out the military mindset I had years ago, and focus on beating the ever-loving shit out of my insecurities and problems. There's a motto the Marines live by: Pain is weakness leaving the body. Granted, I wasn't in the Marines, but I'm beginning to take stock in that saying. I may have to seek professional help for my underlying mental issues, but on the surface, I just need to give the middle finger to my inhibitions and "drive on".
Sweet Jesus, I'm rambling again...
Onto the main point of this blog post! My good friend and fellow vodka enthusiast, kalash93 is helping me out with my human x Bon Bon story. I had initially asked him if he wanted to take over the story entirely, which I quickly realized would be a bad idea, since I would have felt disappointed and saddened for just giving up an idea that I had formed on my own, without trying to write it myself. I feel as though my skills with clop are lacking, ever since I published my Rarity x human story, in which the clop scene was very rushed and mechanical (as was stated in kalash's review of the story). Naturally, my self-defeating mindset kicked me in the balls and told me that I was a total failure, and should never attempt clop again. It took me until this afternoon to finally tell that little voice to go pound sand, and that I was going to learn from my mistakes and make my next venture into clop a whole lot better. And it will be. I'm still on the fence about continuing Wilted Flower, which I know a majority of you are eagerly awaiting an update for, but I need to distance myself from it (more than I already have been without updating it); I need to focus on the other ideas that have been at the forefront of my mind as of the past few months, namely my Bon Bon story, as well as my Spitfire, Octavia and the everyone rated "Dash gets stuck in a cloud" story that I'm extremely afraid to write. Speaking of which, I had this writer who I wrongfully despised for the longest time take a look at the outline, and he provided me with some very solid and educated input on it. It made me realize that even though I think that I can't do it, I really can if I work hard at it, which is my main problem.
Again with the rambling! Enough already, sheesh!
In closing: I'm going to keep this motivation chained to whatever solid, immovable object I can find, and [hopefully] wow you all with the realistic, relatable stories that you have come to know me for, as well as some hot, sensual and sexy clop. Because I know you all like that too.
Always remember to flush twice: It's a long way to the White House!

I can guarantee that it's going to have sensual and romantic clop. In fact, I plan to write two clop scenes!
