Signal boost: Broken on the Wheel · 7:49pm Sep 19th, 2015

So I've helped my friend billymorph on a few stories again.

And he had the unfortunate timing to release one of them today on what seems one of the most update intensive days in recent memory. :fluttershyouch:

Anyway, its called 'Broken On The Wheel,' and is so far looking like a very promising Trixie story.

With only a broken wagon, seventeen bits, and a shattered reputation to her name it seemed that the world could not grind The Great and Powerful Trixie down any further. When an old friend offered Trixie the opportunity to start again, with a heavy bag of bits to help her back on her hooves, she grudgingly accepted. All that was required was a little magical assistance; no schemes, no cursed amulets, no risk of getting banished to the moon.

They never told her the ritual was to summon the Nightmare back to Equestria. Now, as the Nightmare’s new host, all that stands between Equestria and eternal darkness is the determination of Trixie Lulamoon, a mare who already lost everything for the sake of power. In her quest to maybe save the world, and certainly save herself, Trixie will explore the depth to which power can corrupt and the lengths ponies will go to possess it. It’s that, or break on life’s wheel.

That's right, a very promising Trixie and Nightmare Moon story. Don't think I need to actually sell it more than that.

Please go take a peak at least. It would be an utter shame for such a promising story to lose momentum just because a case of bad timing.

It's on my read later, it certainly sounds great, and given his other works are ones I did enjoy, this should be no exception. Man, this week keeps me looking at stories id never have given a look over before with the tense, the characters, or something else.

Yeah, been a crazy hectic week for the site, hasn't it? :applejackconfused:

Guess the show starting up again gave many a boost in the arm as far as creativity is concerned. Cool stuff, but a bit hard to keep track of everything happening all at once.

Well it's popping on and off the popular stories section, which is a good sign, but it seems my timing wasn't great :fluttershyouch:

Ah well, I get most of my hits overnight anyway, so we'll see what happens. Thanks for the plug :twilightsmile:

3404191 I cant complain, the new stories and ideas have been good for what ive found so far. So more power to them!

No problem. Good luck on the 'night shift,' so to speak. :twilightsmile:

3404221 and its managed to get my muse going to poke at a song, so if anything, while i curse and try to figure on the lyrics to round it out on part 2. I can't say im shocked, its great writing as usual from him. Solid plot, and good cliffhangers.

Glad to hear you liked it. Was fun even being the editor on it, so I think billymorph's got a winner on his hands. :twilightsmile:

3404443 I noted that one haha, but gah, you are an evil little refrain to get things in. And two more stanza's then to hit, i can do this. and its been ages since i had any desire to create create. doubly so to song.

Meanwhile, I continue writing the fic that would send me straight to pony hell.
I have issues.

What, that mantis pony clop you were talking about?

Eh, I've seen far, far worse on this site, so I think you're still in the clear on that one.
