What a While it's Been... · 3:53am Oct 10th, 2015
Okay, so I am shocked to find that this place has had traffic since I last logged off, about two years ago now. Sorry to say, but the story that must go on? It didn't.
Life happened, and I entered a deep depression. Sorry to say, it killed my drive to do much of anything. I might be dead now if it weren't for my fiance. I've gotten much better, so no worries! I feel less and less depressed with each passing day. It has honestly given me perspective on the value of the life I still have left to live.
Which brings me back to my writing! See, depression kills drive like nothing else. I don't think I could have ever kept going to way I was. Many were the time I cried over my keyboard just trying to do anything. This is my passion. It hurt like hell to put it down. But now, with life getting better and better, I've picked up.
I've been writing for the past year, actually.
Chronicles of the Glow was my baby, and it hurts to have to put it down, but I've got to follow my heart. Trust me, this story will be retold later... maybe not in this format, maybe not with ponies, but it will begin again. The story I am writing now is my opening piece; something that, for the first time, I intend to get published. I've named the project "Blacktongue"! Maybe you'll see it on shelves in paperback sometime in the next year or two.
I haven't given up, I'm not dead. I still write. I still love it. But things change, and I don't think I can restrict myself with pony characters and pony settings. Chronicles of the Glow was only a pony story in the most base of ways; the characters had hooves instead of hands and feet. Still, I feel the binding on my work is too much for me now.
I hope you at least like what's still here. I am going to be working on the new stuff, maybe updating here every now and then when it comes to it. Have fun everyone!
