A heads up Story status updates for many fics: · 11:31am Jan 15th, 2015
There will be a "Some Secrets are better left untold 3..." which will be based around season 5 if I can manage it. So don't expect it till around then.
The Belle Tolls for Love 2:
I know I've left this on hiatus for god knows how long now and I'm really sorry for doing so. Once I finish "Some Secrets are better left 2..." I will try my very best to update that to completion.
Pony:
This will sit on the back burner a little longer since I will be updating "The Belle Tolls for Love 2" as much as possible but if I finish it, I'll begin updating this fic until season 5 releases its first two episodes.
Stranded:
With Rainbow Rocks coming out and me loving it so much, I can't bring myself to finish that fic as I actually like Sunset Shimmer now(SPOILER ALERT: She was the villain behind the cmc getting warped to the human world)...So that one is canceled sadly.
Besides, this fic was a videogame/movie related inspiration based fic and those RARELY make it past 3 chapters.
I plan to write an EQD based fic in the future so don't worry though.
Nightmare Moon Returns:
Too much time has passed since I started writing this fic and when I look over it I can help but want to slap myself over and over for such bad writing. So I'm canceling this one as well.
Pen Pals 3:
I know a great deal of you have been looking forward to this but I'm going to be frank, the reason for the story not even being published with one chapter is as simple as this:
Pen Pals 2 was supposed to be "THE END". I never intended on making a number 3 until all of you screamed you wanted more. The last time I made another story in a story series that was supposed to be "DONE", I ended up writing about 4 to 5 chapters of fanfiction that was ripped almost completely from Naruto Shippoden with a very bad "Pokemon" coating because I had ZERO IDEAS of how to progress the story once I had "finished it" and hated every single chapter wrote out for the story and ended up canceling it.
I tied up every single loose end with the final chapter of Pen Pals 2 even if it was a bit rushed. When I popped out the idea for a number 3, I was literally pulling strings to see what loose ends I hadn't tied up so tightly that even Applejack would be green with envy.
The storyline between Sweetie Belle and Swift was literally the ONLY thing out of the entire fanfic series I hadn't tied up and slammed a padlock with a 2million digit password on to make sure there was nothing more that could be written on it. Because of this, there was literally no way of including anything else from the pen pals series without literally breaking the continuity I had worked so hard to establish in the past 2 installments.
A filly's tale 2:
I won't cancel this one yet as I really, really, really want to write this story out because I have such a grand plot planned for it but if it sits there for another year, expect it to be canceled in 2016.
Brandon's Legacy:
I'm on the fence with this one, part of me wants to cancel it as horror fics have never truly been enjoyable for me to write but another part of me would hate to leave the finale of a multistory thrill hanging like it is. So I'll leave this one on hiatus for another year as well but if you don't see an update before 2016, expect it to be canceled as well.
The Forgotten War: A prequel to the trilogy:
Part of me wants to continue this but another part of me knows that just like "Nightmare Moon Returns", too much time has passed and I just can't bring myself to continue a story that had such bad writing on it. So this one is canceled as well.
And so there ya have it, a status update on all my fanfics, till next time...
STAY 20% COOLER!
This is deathsia, SIGNING OUT!
Ah, i remember those older ones, brandons legacy, and a fillys tale... been a while since i heard those names.
kinda sad to see some of the older stories canceled as I loved reading them and knowing they are what got me to loving your stories so much but it's understandable as you've said so much time has passed and while I prefer to disagree with the bad writing opinion I see that there's been so much character development to the cast that continuing those stories would only lead to folks bitching about how out of character they are. of the ones your on the fence of doing away with I'll be honest i'd love to see the end to brandon's legacy. even tho I don't like the darker stories when it comes to pony's i really wanted to know how they were going to get thru it.
Please don't let Brandon's Legacy end on a cliffhanger. I really do enjoy the whole series and would love nothing more than to see how it ends. I love a good murder mystery.

It's been sometime since I last checked this but i'm pretty sure I wrapped things up in the final chapter with the epilogue section of the 4 of them hanging out with their kids. so yes, that one is all tied up too. One lesson I learned from the mistake I made with that pokemon fanfic i spoke of in the blog post was to know when to end a story/series. Too short and it feels like things are left undone, too long and it drags on.
It's never crystal clear but as I write, I get a feel for how and when things should slow down and eventually stop.
