    If You'll Have Me

    Hi everypony...

    I'm back.

    Slowly... but... I'm back.

    Not sure how much I'll be posting, but I'm going to try and work on things and acclimate myself to the world again. It's been a bad, hard couple months, and I want to be in Equestria again.

    I've missed all of you. :heart:

    Winter Break-Up

    Hey everypony,

    I'm dealing with a lot of frustration and disappointment lately, so I'm going to put myself in time-out and take a hiatus.

    Wintertime gets to me, and my attitude is suffering for it. I can't write the quality stories you deserve when I'm bitter and let down.

    Your Stories

    Hey everypony!

    If I'm writing something for you, I have good news!

    I've been graced with a more accommodating schedule at work, so I'm able to throw myself at these writings in full force this week, and devote more time to finishing them. Commissions are STILL open, too!

    Thank you for being so patient with me.

Not Enough Words!! · 3:19pm Oct 14th, 2015

So I wrote a Luna story. The thing is, I can't submit it because it doesn't meet the word minimum.

I pose this to you: should I try and bloat it for submission, OR just give my followers interested a password to read it?

I feel like there's a few factors to consider:

- How far under the limit are you?
- Can the story benefit from more words or would it be bloating it as you say?
- Can you not perhaps make a drabble collection and put it in there?

3469535 It's about 250 words under. I really feel like it's done - I mean, I can describe things more, but that's not the essence of the story. :ajsleepy:

To bloat a story is never a good idea...
However, the feedback from fresh perspectives might allow you to elaborate parts of the story - or add to it altogether - in ways you did not anticipate.

3469644 Here it is.

Password is "Noir."

Let me know what you guys think, good AND bad.

I made my comment, ill add this bit here.

Leave it as it is. Its glorious in its darkness

3469544 Hmm... Might be worth sitting on it and making a drabble collection then.

3471053 I did my best. Literally 24 words away from submission length. :fluttercry:

3472295 I did it!! The story is up!!
