Final Draft


All the world is indeed a stage, and we are merely players, performers, and portrayers; each anothers audience outside the gilded cage.

    Bucket of problems

    Okay, so, I've been very busy with real world responsibilities and headaches. Finally moved my grandmother into an assisted living home, which ends a three year ordeal of her ruining my parent's lives and making my life even more miserable than it was. I'm back to therapy, and my therapist was less than thrilled with my current state of affairs. We're working on a solution, which requires me to

    Anime Boston 2016

    So, first off, I'm back. My disappearance was only because I spent nearly every hour of the last two weeks preparing my costume for Anime Boston. I am a procrastinator. But, all turned out well and I had a great time.

    Finally meeting a deadline.

    So, good news, I just finished chapter 15 of I Should Have Never Bought That Pony, and it will be released tomorrow at 16:00 EST. Now, it's a long one, and it's some of the better writing I've done in a while. Still, I'd like someone (or a couple someones) to skim over it before I send it out. Shoot me a PM and I'll give you a link to the google Doc.

Well, I can't finish this, but for good reason. · 8:05pm Oct 31st, 2014

So, The Mare in Apartment Forty-Two is one of the better things I've written, but unfortunately I won't be continuing it. There's a few reasons, but the most pertinent is that it is really isn't a MLP fanfic. While it's set in the universe, its cast is entirely OC's and only loosely revolves around Manehattan. This was pointed out by a few people, but even as I wrote it, I knew that to be true.

So, the next reason I won't be continuing it is because i have the completely non-pony version nearly completed, and I will be attempting to publish it. There's no point in disguising my work as a fanfic, but it was nice to see how many people enjoyed reading what I had written.

Lastly, if I have the fanfic out, there's always chance for copyright claims to be made when I go to publish the real thing, and I don't want to lose my work, and more importantly, I don't want it stolen. It would be too easy for someone to take everything I'd posted on this site, turn Manehattan to Manhattan, change hooves to hands, mare to woman, and publish a completed story before I could. That's paranoia, but I think I'm justified.

All in all, thanks for reading what I wrote, and I hope that if I do manage to get "The Woman in Apartment Forty-Two" published, that you'll all read it.
