    With mostly radio silence with vague/broken promises, a lot of you are probably wondering what's going on with the last chapter.

    Scratching Itch (Also, Where Do You Come From?)

    Wow, the votes were pretty scattered. Oh well, we had a couple come up above the rest. I have an idea that I will be working on when I can. Something quick and dirty, just for the sake of getting it out and posting something.

    Have an Itch (Vote for Best Pony)

    I have that niggle in the back of my brain telling me to write. However, I'd like a little warm-up exercise before jumping back into any major projects.

    So, because it worked so well the last time, let's do this again. Vote for best pony! Preferably none that I have or are currently writing about.

    Let me know in the comments below.

    Where the Hell Have I Been!?

    Hey guys.

    Unfortunately writing has been completely dormant as I've hit the insane schedule regarding three jobs that pick up when the weather is warm on top of other projects. In fact, I'm convinced that I've actually messed myself mentally through all of this.

Going to Fix Up the Old Stories · 6:11am Jul 17th, 2012

I've gotten a couple comments on No Need For Words giving suggestions about how to improve the story. While I'm at it, I figure I might as well give Number One a once over as well for spelling and grammar.

Room 213 Chapter 4: "To Tataurus With Them" is getting a few of its final seams patched up and will hopefully be ready by the end of the week. Along with it, the fixes for the rest of the stories.

I apologize for taking so long. Both with new content and fixing old.

Thank you for your patience and/or constructive criticism.

Looking forward to it :pinkiehappy:
Oh, you got me thinking of those waffles in Room 213...oh those sounded so good...:rainbowwild: Now I want waffles. :trixieshiftleft:

Amusing title. I'm sure it'll live up to its name. :twilightsmile:

I would love to see how you improve on the stories.

I have been meaning to ask. How would you improve the story. Would you add scenes, change scenes or just go over and change certain words to make it sound better?

Basically, just spelling and grammar fixes to make it sound better with added lines if found appropriate.

For an example of added lines:
"“Hold on!” you yell down at the door. “Patience of some ponies, I swear...” you mumble as you zip up the jacket and make your way towards the entrance, faithful chair still diligently preventing intruders. As you pull the chair out of the way, you wonder how the last of your uninvited guests got out last night. You look up at an open window before shrugging, setting the chair aside, and answering the door."

so you are just fixing grammar and spelling mistakes and adding lines to make certain scenes better. I guess i will have to reread the stories.

Not necessarily. Those who have read through them won't find too much new. These fixes are to have the stories be more enjoyable for new readers.

240622 Also how is Room 213 coming along? Will I be wowed when I read it?

240624
I hope so. It's already longer than any other chapter and still growing.

Well that is good i look forward to reading it when i get my computer back.
