An update · 9:56am Feb 21st, 2015
I know it has been awhile since I updated anything on this site but this just was not a really good past few months for me and my family. My dad lost his job over the summer and still looking for work. My mom had breast cancer, she had it removed but now has to go through chemotherapy. Also trying to get approved for medicade and haven't heard from them in awhile so I'm probably going to get penalized through taxes. And my little brother's car got smashed into in the school parking lot and the idiot who hit him didn't have insurance. Go figure. It's like a black cloud hanging over my family for a long time.
As for writing for MLP. It just not coming to me anymore. And no, this is not the usual "i'm qutting forever!" bs I wrote in the past. There's just nothing really there or motivating me to want to do anything for the series. I'll try to get back onto writing some time in the future but I can't promise anything because things are really trying to balance itself out right now with life.
For my stories listed below
Beavis and Butt-head Do Equestria - This is probably one of the two stories that still gets hit up a couple times with people checking to see if it still has anything left in it. Truthfully, I always put this story on the back burner and felt that I maybe jumped the gun by including an overarching story to it where it slowed things down and started to lose interest in it. Hell, the story is nearing completion anyway as it probably needs one or two more chapters. I honestly felt the flame went out once Beavis and Butt-head's revival season got cancelled that it really showed the slow pace.
The Vanishing Star - Probably my favorite story to work on and revised it so many times. Thing is, even when people late in the story's run that favorite it, they don't leave any comments on what they think of the story. It kind of hurts when your favorite story used to be getting a lot of attention, comments, likes, favs and alerts that now it's down to nearly one or two people even looking at it. So, it barely gets attention anymore even when I update it. Sure you guys hit it up every now and then but Fanfiction.net, there is... literally no one there anymore. It's not that I'm writing this story for the attention and fame, I really want to create a circle to talk about things of what this story puts out. Latest chapter was some time ago and I think only two people said I did a good job. I really love this story and it's really my way to throw Metal Gear Solid/Naruto type stuff into the MLP style world and I guess I hit the point of no return somewhere a few chapters back. *Sigh* I guess it's too long? No conclusion in sight? Is Van not a likable character?
Regrets - I tried to redo this story for FIM without Gigawatt being mentioned and Derpy replacing him. It was too much work to write him out entirely because he plays a pretty big supporting role for Twilight's side. He was kind of a Gary Stu, a boring romance for Twilight, an alicorn in secret and I remember people not taking too kind that stuff around here. Rarity and Spike had a chapter left but Gigawatt played a big role in their chapters as well so it proved a little too much. If you really want to read the whole story, just go to my Fanfiction.net account and view it there. Still gets hit up every now and then.
Too Good Too Be True - You already know the controversy with this one. Story got too dark and people didn't like so I redid it, then it was too silly and people hated it so I rewrote it again. No one was ever happy with this story. I know it's my story but alot of people really hated the whole Shining Armor and Cadence being half brother and sister idea that they would send private messages saying how the story can still end in a canonical way. That and, saying I'm a sick person for thinking that, have no respect for the series, must really hate Shining Armor and Cadence, threats if it doesn't flow a certain way, like watching the world burn. I even tried to revive the story again but the chapter in question just never came to me so it's going to float in limbo for awhile longer. I don't know how this story pissed off so many as it was intended for people to crowd around and giggle like idiots at watching a pony go crazy in disbelief and it goes wrong.
Like that kind of laughing... Instead this story haunts me. I had offers from other people to take it off my hands but I declined. Knowing they won't end it like I want it to.
Twinkle Star - I actually have another chapter that has been in the works but yet again it's not coming me in the later half. I really appreciated the people who try to help me understand the title character's disorder better but over the time there was once again paused because of some lack of support. And it's a pretty forgettable story.
I just wanted to throw this out there. Just alot of bad stuff happening right now.
Hope things get better for you
