    Audio Reading - Hearth's Warming Eve In Canterlot

    At the beginning of November, I was asked by TyriusTheVA if it would be alright if he did an audio reading of one of my older stories, Hearth's Warming Eve In Canterlot for Christmas. I said yes, of course, it's been a long time since anyone has ever

    It Finally Happened

    About six weeks ago, after months of Cerulean Voice telling me to submit my newest story 'What Is Lost, What Is Found' to Equestria Daily I finally caved in and did it. I made a submission and now weeks later after not so patiently waiting I got a response. What's the verdict? Well...

    Surprise!

    This will probably come as a surprise to most of you, but in case you haven't already noticed I published a new story late last night. Well, it was late enough for me and Cerulean Voice. He had just spent his entire Saturday going through and thoroughly editing my story. Our deadline was 6.00 pm tonight, so I think it got done just in time.

    New Story and Youtube Gaming Livestreams

    Hey guys, sorry for the long period of silence. I would like to say I've been busy but since the coronavirus has forced everyone into self-isolation, I've mostly been playing video games (Kingdom Hearts and Animal Crossing New Horizons) and chilling at home.

    These Heartbreak Times Chapter 3 Out Now!

    I've finally updated These Heartbreak Times, only took me three months to write, rewrite, proofread and have it edited. I'm hoping it won't be this long between updates anymore. Part of the delay has been hiring another editor and the fact that I've had to fly home for my grandfather's funeral.

Down the Rabbit Hole... · 5:14am Oct 4th, 2014

So I've been lacking any motivation to write due to many distractions occurring my life right now, mainly video games, namely World of Warcraft. But I guess I just need to be more disciplined when it comes to actually producing any work. I mean sure, I want to write the story I just don't have any motivation to do so. Which causes me to bum around all day not actually doing much except play mildly addictive video games such as Animal Crossing.

Which brings me to my next point; the story. I thought it would be most fitting if I were to make my first story about a tea party. Of course, the story will have no actual plot and any conflict that arises will probably just be utter nonsense and won't go anyway. So basically the entire narrative is a throwaway but it will be a decent one at that.

I guess the main problem I'm facing currently is this feeling that I need to be good as my idols but I realise that my idols are older and more mature than I am and are simply better writers based on the fact that they are more experienced than me. But I do have one advantage and that is that I'm young and gifted and have lots of potential.

Maybe I just need to focus on my writing and make it the best possible story I can produce. It doesn't have to be as good as what someone might write but as long as I put in my best effort in than I've done enough. But I'm always open to constructive criticism and thoughtful commentary. I mean hey, there's nothing wrong with a little encouragement and I get plenty of that as it is!

The main point of this entire blog was to let you know that yes, I am actually brewing a storm and while the gears in my mind are starting to turn more than they did a few days ago, I would like to leave you with a simple instruction:

Follow the white rabbit...
