    New Year and a Possible Fresh Start

    I'm a week late for 2018 talk, but I've been pretty busy all things considered, especially since I've been working twelve hour shifts at my job for over a month now.

    But, my personal life aside, there is a reason I wanted to make this little blog, and it relates to my most 'popular' story.

    Well then...

    I went on Derpibooru to browse, and found This. (Semi-Grimdark warning, will delete this blog if necessary.)

    The fact people like my stuff enough to do this is nothing short of mind boggling to me.

    Happy Birthday to Me

    Another year older, and none the wiser; at least I'm at a job I like.

    Also, I'm turning 28 on the 28th; that's supposedly significant or something.

    Calling for Editors

    Well, I'm not sure if the chapter I've been working on is done to my satisfaction, but I can't think of anything more to add. Feel free to suggest ideas if you feel them appropriate; other than that, reply and I'll PM you the link.

    General Update MK2

    So, a while back, I talked about how I had lost my job and everything was on hold until I found something new? Well, I found something new; starting Monday the 26th of June, I'll be employed at a new company. Possibly even making more than I was at my old job with what seems to be a better work environment as well.

    Expect me to get back to story writing soon.

Last one of these for a while, I swear!

The first draft of the next chapter is done; however, since posting it without editing would likely result in several people having brain aneurysms from how utterly horrific my grammar, spelling, and overall storytelling are the first time through, I need a little help. Some friends I've been sharing my progress with have already made some comments on portions of the fic, but I'd like to get good number of outside opinions on this if possible.

So, if there's anyone out there with enough mental fortitude to wade through the poor excuse for writing that is my first draft, your help would be most greatly appreciated.

I'll take a shot if you want. See my user page and any of the featured couthor works to see what I can do.

And, hey, early preview of the chapter!

I'll take a look at it if you want.

I would be glad to tackle this one. I've done some proofing for a couple people already, so this should be pretty quick. Could probably help with sequence flow, but grammar and the technical aspects are my forte.

Yeah sure. I've got time. Assuming you don't fill up with other editors.

Sisters know I've got some spare time here and there. Since you're already up on EqD, I'm not barred from lending a hoof as a pre-reader or editor! Count me in.

Thank you to everyone who replied in response to this.

I have gone through the doc and made various edits based on your suggestions (though I did elect to go against you on some, unfortunately), and would very much appreciate it if you gave the edited version one last read to see if there is anything that I have missed, or if there is something you feel still needs reworking. I believe you all still have a link to the chapter in your PMs; if not, let me know and I'll send it to you again.
