    I Quit. Period.

    You want "Renewal", you can have it. I never belonged in this fandom anyway.

    Revised "Still Alive, Chapters 4 & 5"

    I don't know why it asked for a password in viewing the chapters, I didn't set one. Fixing...

    As I said, after work, sanity loss and raging (at story and work) I can type regularly again, though updates will still be sporadic. Writer's block on a daily basis sucks. Know what to type, but not how to type it.

    Temporary Hiatus...

    Back in school. Swamped with work. Getting out of hand. Need to take a temporary leave of absence to get my work under control.

    Don't worry. I have no intention of abandoning the story, but for the next week or two I'll have to reprioritize.

    On the flip side-ish, I'm about 1/3 done with the next part. Don't know if that's good news, but there it is.

    I'm really sorry about this.

    Hello...it's been a while...

    I apologize for not updating for a long time, been going through a sort of "crisis of faith" recently (about if I can rightly call myself a brony, actually). Still not over it, I don't know if I ever really will be, but I'm here again and ready to type up the next part of Renewal.

    An Update Regarding Chapter 2

    For those who have read my story and are paying attention to it:

    I'm nearly finished with chapter 2. I should be finished typing it in a day or two, afterwhich I'll retype the chapter into FimFiction and submit it. Should be up by the end of Thursday the 21st at the latest.

An Update Regarding Chapter 2 · 6:25am Jun 19th, 2012

For those who have read my story and are paying attention to it:

I'm nearly finished with chapter 2. I should be finished typing it in a day or two, afterwhich I'll retype the chapter into FimFiction and submit it. Should be up by the end of Thursday the 21st at the latest.

When it goes up I'd like to ask a favor of those who read it: I'm very worried that it's too detail oriented, too wordy, too much of a mouthful. On the one hand this is only chapter 2 and I need the time to explain the characters and environments, but on the other I wonder if I'm going overboard. My writing style is often...scenic, detailing all the sights and sounds and feelings of the world I see in my own imagination. Is it too scenic? Am I loosing everypony in the fluff of detail instead of engaging them in the story?

I'd like you to offer your opinions on this matter. I can tell you I will read each and every comment left under this blog post and will try to change my style accordingly.

Thank you for your patients and your input.

Sincerely,

Dr. Sparkle
