    Xlibris

    Hey, you guys ever hear of Xlibris? I've got an offer from them to publish my book, but I'm getting some shady vibes from some of the reviews I've read about them. Any thoughts?

    Amazon's changing it's print costs.

    So, as of June 20th, Amazon will be changing its print costs. Specifically, everything is going to be a bit more expensive. If you were on the fence for buying a physical copy of my books, now's the time to change your mind, seeing as how the price is going to increase in a couple of months. Thought I'd give you all the heads up.

    What I Am: Aftermath chapter.

    Hey, guys, I'm writing a conclusion chapter for What I Am. Nothing too substantial, given that a sequel and spin off already exist, but I thought I'd put it down as both a way to let those that don't exactly follow me (or, at the very least, don't follow my blog) know that the second book is out, and also know that A Darkened Sky is about to get a whole lot of chapters.

    Fool's Gambit.

    Man, did you ever go back and just... cringe at what you did before? That happened to me with Fool's Gambit. The story has plenty of potential, that's not the problem. My problem is with how it's written. The prose is off, there are numerous errors, and I feel like the whole thing is rushed. Like, that first part could have easily been 4-5 chapters longer, and it would have been better for

I don't want to disappoint. · 6:56am Oct 18th, 2015

So, I'm working on the next chapter right now, and I'm having the biggest anxiety attack of all time. This chapter is supposed to be epic, awesome, and climactic, I can't help but feel like I'm going to disappoint you all.

Anyway, look forward to it tomorrow, and pray that I don't get cold feet, delete all my work, and preform hara-kiri on myself in order to escape the pressure.

Also, if you could take a look at my new story Reflections, I would be incredibly grateful.

I felt that for so long in my Spike story, I still don't know if I did my action scenes right. But, you'll never know until you post try. :pinkiehappy:

I'll try and get to your other story.

Perform hara-kiri on myself in order to escape the pressure.

Please don't do that. You're a skilled writer and a generally and genuinely fun person. I'd be deeply saddened if you weren't around.

It would be rather difficult for you to disappoint me, with your level of skill, so relax.

The perfect is the enemy of the good, and your stories are very, very good. Just keep doing what you enjoy and don't kill yourself over it, figuratively or literally. :twilightsmile:

Dude, I think I speak for everyone here when I say that you need to chillax. This is going to be truly epic, and I just know it's going to be done kind of awesome cliffhanger!

Please don't have an anxiety attack over us.

I have faith in your writing ability. :pinkiehappy:

ps: Please don't have an anxiety attack over it. or perform hara-kiri. :twilightsmile:

The most disappointment there will be if you

get cold feet, delete all my work, and preform hara-kiri on myself in order to escape the pressure.

Otherwise I don't think you've got it in you, with how you have built it up to this point.

You phrasing, though, implies that it is possible perform seppuku on someone else, and that's an interesting concept to ponder. :pinkiecrazy:

Anyway, look forward to it tomorrow, and pray that I don't get cold feet, delete all my work, and preform hara-kiri on myself in order to escape the pressure.

Don't worry if you do that we'll just resurrect you inject the results with tons of anti-anxiety drugs and then chain you to a keyboard. :trollestia: In all seriousness though I'm sure it will be great, and we'll love it. :pinkiehappy::rainbowdetermined2:

And I totally understand those jitters, that paragraph reminded me of what was going through my mind at my first recital this past spring. I am cripplingly shy about meeting new people, let alone performing in front of a non-family audience. Didn't help that I had only been learning my instrument for about 4 months at the time, and I was only 1 of 2 adult students performing that day.

You've done it before; you can do it again.

No, as seppuku is explicitly ritual suicide. Hara-kiri (which is just literally belly-cutting) is very doable on another, though still not recommended at all.

3480221 Seppuku and hara-kiri is the same thing, ritual suicide by belly-cutting. Which makes doing it to others a bit problematic. :raritywink:
