    Here are some medical terms required to understand some dialogue that'll be coming at the end of "The Wyrm Has Turned"

    The caudate nucleus is a nucleus located within the basal ganglia of the brains of many animal species. The caudate nucleus is an important part of the brain's learning and memory system.

    A Pony Nightmare Spurs me to Write

    I've focusing on school and writing less than usual,but I just took a nap and had a freakish pony nightmare.

    It was mostly incoherent but it both disturbed and entertained me.

    I now am back online and writing. I can take this short break from school work.

    here's the closest thing that I can use to describe the nightmare.

    It's terrifying,I know

    Human Irony

    Once the most militarily and industrially advanced countries in the world gained nuclear capabilities, every motion of one made toward another has been that of averting war out of fear of mutually assured destruction. But here on the internet, where the average person is armed with only the tips of their fingers in a zone full of knowledge to explore, they go so far out of their way to harm

    Literature vs Fiction and WRITER'S BLOCK! RAWR!

    I'm quitting work to write ponies.....

    LOL Jk.

    I'm resigning from work because schools starting up again and my schedule is wholly incompatible.

    but I will have some days off before classes that will be conducive to writing.

    now where was I?

    oh yes:


    Fiction is any work portraying imaginary characters and events, as a novel, story, or play.

Ouch. Is that a one-space indenture I'm seeing? :rainbowlaugh:

Get to work, soldier!

174383 He's really bad with indents, especially during dialogue. He should consider not doing them at all. Make my job a little easier, lol.

174418

don't mind me....I'm standing over here....with my hurt feelings.:moustache:

you act like I never told you that I do it on purpose.:moustache:

174418

Trust me, I've mentioned it more than a few times xD
Honestly, I'm happy I got him to take out the needless spaces between paragraphs as well as a few other things.
Still got some work to do on the whole "let's put random spaces right in the middle of our paragraphs", but that's less of an issue, I suppose.

Hey Magnum, hope you don't mind us just shamelessly bashing your stuff like that :pinkiehappy:

174461

Stop forgeting the spaces after punctuation so often and I'll be more lenient with you, you lovable little schmuck! :ajsmug:

(Just in case: I'm joking. About the schmuck, not the spaces and punctuation thing xD)

174449 You never did. I was content just thinking it was a glitch in formatting transfer, but now, with that screencap, I realize that all of the paragraphs that you forgot to do them on, I changed for a reason. I tried to make everything uniform, which is why I took the formatting that held the majority and converted the rest.
Also: "...habitable space out they they're only hope..." ??????? I think you meant "...habitable space out. Their only hope..." or "...habitable space out that their only hope..." but even that makes an awkward sentence. Watch out for that.
You're welcome. :ajsmug:

174457 Oh did you? I was content just fixing the bits where there were double spaces between paragraphs, or no spaces at all.

YAY!..... I think.:twilightblush:

174474

Come now, let him at least finish redacting the damn chapter already. If we keep pointing out stuff that's awkward he'll never be done.

And you'd be surprised at how many of those spacing mistakes between paragraphs subsisted in his prologue and prologue². Still got to run over the entirety of his chapter one but I'm putting it off all the time in favor of my own writing and geeking it up. Goddess knows that's going to be a tough costumer :p

PS: I'll get around to it, Magnum! I swear! :pinkiehappy:

174485 Don't bother. I done did it earlier. Also further touched up the prologues after you set the brass tacks. On each prologue, I put in the gold filigree, and did the whole shebang on chapter one.

But yeah, I think I'll let you take first crack at chapter two.

174509

Will still take a look at that first chapter, although if we're talking "gold filigree" here, I probably won't have much to point out.
I can live with having the first go at chapter two as well :raritywink:

174516 Well, he hasn't applied my update, yet. I'll remind him when he posts the second chapter. He seems a little busy. :raritywink:
