    Royal Canterlot Library Feature and Interview

    So the noble curators of the Royal Canterlot Library decided they wanted to feature my story 'What is Left'. It comes with a written interview, too. Quite the honor. You can read my interview here: https://royalcanterlotlibrary.net/2018/03/09/onionpies-what-is-left/

    Working On Non-Pony Stuff Right Now

    Sorry for the lack of updates lately. I've been focusing on original writing projects so far this year. Writing is my greatest passion, and I want to make a career out of it. Sadly, you don't make any horsebucks from writing horsefics, so I'll have to look elsewhere for writing-related income. Not that I'm going to stop writing pony stuff forever; I have a nice home here on Fimfiction and this is

    Call for Proofreaders!

    I have an 8,000 word fimfic that's pretty much finished. I'm in need of feedback on it before I make my last-pass revisions and edits. It's in its sixth draft at the moment. If you'd like to give it an early read and offer me your feedback, please do leave a comment here or PM me to let me know, especially if you're experienced with proofreading.

    Still Alive, Still Working: A Quick Update

    I'm currently working on two ~7k word stories. One is in its fourth draft, the other in its fifth draft. Both of them have been driving me nuts. I'm trying really hard to make them not suck. Sorry it's been taking so long to get out a new story for you guys. But hey, on the bright side, this time you may get two OnionPie stories at the same time. Hurray.

The Time It Takes · 2:45am Dec 21st, 2014

Still in draft three. It won't be ready for Christmas as I had hoped, and for that I'm deeply sorry. When this story is done, virtually every scene will have been rewritten at least three times. Maybe I'm insane, maybe I'm doing this right, maybe I should stop writing this blog post and get back to revising the story.

But before I disappear again, here's a tiny piece from my latest revision, because Celestia knows you guys have been waiting long enough. It's still a bit rough (oh my god I'm so bad). Here from Sweetie Belle's point of view:

Moon and stars peered through weak clouds, fireflies bobbed in the distance, and street lamps shone halos through the thin rain. Ponies wandered across the town square, some in pairs, some alone, all hiding under umbrellas of every conceivable color.

After so long in the city, I’d almost forgotten what the night sky looked like, and it took some effort not to gape up at it. And looking out at the warm glow of Ponyville after all these years, it was hard to remember why I’d run away in the first place.

I'll get back to you when I have something more interesting to report.

I can't wait either. It'll feel good to finish something again. Just don't hold your breath.
