Alright, here's my plan. · 7:22am Feb 2nd, 2015
Gonna rework what I can, and scrap what I can't.
Skills have been gained, old stories left pissing me off will be revamped. I'm starting a new (slightly modified) world of human pony interaction. I'm gonna gut my old stories and see what I can salavage, some will go through full rewrites.
Full rewrite:
BrokeBen and BatsHeadlessIvoryVicious AnimalApplejack Fic
ALL OF THEM
Gonna fix this fucking world gonna fix the characters, I'm pissed, it's fishhooking time.
Holy shit this is gonna be rough....
You are the most weirdest, strangest, confusingest and funniest writer I have ever seen.
Keep up the fucking work.

There's a small chance I might be manic depressive...so...there's always that.
lol, no wonder Broke just disappeared on me. I guess I'll get back to reading that one once the rewrite is finished.

I'm going to have a lot of work, but the frame is there, so it should be done a bit quicker than the others.
I know my opinion doesn't matter here, but I wanted to say that while support your decisions here, I still had to pour a glass of the 18 year scotch and tip one back for Headless. That right there is one of my favorites right now, and it's current state (while imperfect) will be missed. Here's to hoping I fall even more in love with the rewrite. Good luck with your endeavors, and I wish you had a donor account of some kind so I could send you enough to buy you a beer (or whatever your drink of choice is). Thanks for doing what you do!
Hey I think a good idea is to just focus on one story at a time, unless your one of them who think of several diffent things at once, so that way they now that they will have to wait for it but just promise them when you have the others finished you will get to work on the more popular stories. Just finish/rework the more popular stories first and put the rest on haitus or pause or something and focus on one or two. You don't have to its just that, that seems like a good idea to me. I've never had any experience with this kinda stuff because I mostly read and I honestly think I suck at writing.
Good luck, really, truly
I know how tough it can be. I lost several stories with work amounting to over seventy chapters and notes containing many hours of work on their own when my laptop ate it's hard drive in November. One of those stories was a fic I was working on for this place with a premise I spent more than a week searching this site for and couldn't find. A completely original FIMfic story premise. Trying to start over again now and beating my head against the wall, trying to remember all the important details. Might wind up scrapping it in favor of another story idea I had after seeing Rainbow Rocks.
Be glad you have your notes and a working draft to continue work from. You have a head start on making it work. Head start... Headless... heh... Be happy with that much. Just make sure not to doubt your ideas too much and work that polish you've learned since you first posted those stories. You can make it work.
2763640 I honestly loved every single story you've written so far, finished or unfinished; they were amazing to me. I'm personally okay with whatever you do, just have fun doing it, or else it'll be work buddy! :DDD <(=^3^=)>
As long as you post re-written chapters as new, you'll be fine, otherwise it will get hard to keep track of which chapters are re-written.
Interesting. I hope it goes your way!
It's rather comforting to know that you and I seem to both suffer from the constant urge to rewrite every fucking thing we've wrote.
Hope it works out, Sir.
Please tell me you'll rewrite (maybe) Pantsless Equine. It was funny and random, especially when you got high with Vinyl, as well as talk to your creation.
-The Character
2763835 aDLoP was one of the most fun little stupid non canon fics hat had ever done, Vince's reactions to the situation around him were absolutely perfect, especially the "how buoyant are you?" Scene, literary comedy gold
OT, whatever insanity you have in mind hat just try and have fun with it, no sense getting stressed about something you should be enjoying yourself, if you burn out no one wins.
Also whatever happened to species appreciation day? That shit was funny, in a "what the hell am I reading?!" Kind of way
2763752 Same here actually.
I haven't even finished my story and I still have the urge to rewrite the entire thing...
When I read any thing I wrote in the past it all looks like, pardon my vulgarity, SHIT to me right now.
And Hat...

You redo all your stories, you consider it rough.
For me to even get to the point of being able to submit a story, I consider it impossible.
Well I wish you luck good Sir, luck against the horrid writers block.
I...I have no words...just...good luck.
Whoa, I didn't see that coming. Hope you take it slow - seems like a crazy amount of work.
Good luck on your endeavors, Sir!
