Shadows Look-over · 12:43pm Jan 15th, 2015
Currently stuck on the third installment of the "Shadows" set of stories that I have going, I have come to the conclusion that now would be a good time to start going back and beefing up some of my older stories in the series. At this juncture, I'm between completely re-writing Arch of Shadows (with a different style of story-telling) or just making a separate story that conveys all of the information that needs to be expounded on. Some of the things in dire need of expansion:
*Characterization, particularly of Solaria, Nightshade, Luna, Sombra, Discord, and Celestia.
*Plot, especially if I decide to completely re-write AoS itself using a different style of narrative
*Purpose. since I did not know what the ending would be like until I got there, the earlier portions of the story need to be tweaked in order to more strongly support the ending, especially if I just decide to write a different story expanding on the characters and world introduced in AoS.
The college semester is just now starting up, and I project it'll be a pretty sizeable workload. That will likely affect my decision between a complete re-write, partial re-write, or an entirely new story fulfilling the expanding requirements.
Again, I apologize that there have been practically no updates in a long time on much of anything, but I am still alive, and do intend on giving some sort of love to my stories while I am stuck on the plot of the 3rd installment.
