    Updates and apology to followers

    So... Things have happened. First, I have graduated university and am now seeking gainful employment before these student loans come crashing down about my ears. In the interim, I have moved home with my folks. Now here's the thing about my parents. I love them to death, but they do NOT get the whole Brony thing, like at all. So while I'm at home, I probably won't get much writing done. I won't

    A question to readers...

    I have a couple of quick questions; firstly, what is ya'll's opinion on our resident seller of apples and apple products? More specifically, on her accent. In the show Applejack is depicted with a southern, Appalachian accent, with a lot of "ya'll"s and "howdy"s and "sugercube"s. In a visual or auditory format such as a video or radio play, it's pretty easy to get such an accent across. Much

    Meet my OC

    Portrait of a badly drawn OC
    I would like to introduce my very first OC, as well as the very first pony I have ever drawn myself. I'm not much of an artist, but I'm happy that it at least looks like a pony:derpytongue2:

    I had a thought...

    There have been a couple of big events this season. Rarity opened a boutique in Canterlot, the Cutie Mark Crusaders became the Cutie Marked Crusaders, and Shining Armor and Cadence are finally having a foal. These are plot threads that have been set up since as far back as the first season (second in the case of the royal foal), and now they have been resolved within the span of around a

Update · 4:22pm Oct 6th, 2015

To all my patient followers and casual readers alike: I'm sorry.

Life seems to take perverse pleasure in kicking me in soft and tender areas that have no business being introduced to hard objects traveling at ludicrous speeds. I have three stories that are sitting incomplete, no updates for almost a year in some cases, and little time or inclination to write anything. I've tried, but all I have to show for it is a few rough chapter outlines.

I recently have had to quit my job, since they became completely unreasonable as regards my school schedule, often threatening me with termination just for asking for a day off to study for a test. Currently, I'm reliant on my parents for support, and what little is left over after tuition out of my school loans. I'm about $100 dollars short for the month, and after paying the most pressing of bills haven't been able to afford groceries. So between trying to find a new job, keeping up with my studies, and scrounging between couch cushions for spare change; No, I haven't had much time nor inclination to write much of anything.

I hate to do this, since it sounds so much like begging, but I would once more like to direct you to my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/skyace?ty=h
If all my followers would just pledge one dollar each, it would go immeasurably far towards propelling me over this recent slump. In addition to helping me put food in the cupboards, I wouldn't have to stress so much over finding a job, and could devote more time to writing. I am also offering spots for OC's in my stories, as well as short story commissions, details of which can also be found on my Patreon.
I understand if no one pledges, I'm just a little fan-fic author with a spotty update record. Money is tight all over, and I realize many of my fellow Fimfic members likely are in very similar situations to mine. I just feel I need to at least make the attempt to raise money any way I can. Thank you for sticking with me, and for liking the ramblings of a GI Joe loving, Batman pursuing, Captain America cosplaying, MLP converted fanboy.
