    an update

    Hi all. I hope everyone is doing well. I've been taking an extended break from FimFiction lately. Had some undesirable interactions with some users. That coupled with some of my creative frustrations just makes logging on... kind of unpleasant? If I do log on, it's usually to try and catch up with the fics I'm reading and then I quickly log off. I'm just feeling drained with the MLP fanfic

    It was my birthday yesterday! I'd meant to post the day of, but honestly, I was so tired and busy I just didn't have much time or energy to sit at my computer. Wanna hear a funny story or two, plus see the new playlist I made for Sassaflash? Get it after the jump!

    ponies fix everything

    New chapter for What They Hope to Find is out! I talk about what's next after the jump, but before that, a quick anecdote:

    Last night, my family was having trouble finding something to watch together. My nine-year-old son didn't have any ideas, but he pretty much shot down every suggestion we had. Eventually, out of frustration and half-serious, I say, "Let's just watch ponies."

    Jinglemas! And Rarijack!

    I'm participating in this year's Jinglemas! It's a cute fic exchange that happens every year. I requested a rare pair ship, three guesses which. :twilightsheepish: Today is the last day to join, so if you want in on it, be sure to read over the rules and PM Shakespearicles!

It's done! (Kind of!) · 10:36pm Mar 8th, 2016

Despite a birthday over the weekend, illness, and generally crappy moods, chapter 10 for What They Expect to Give is done! The rough draft, anyway. I kind of doubt my editor can go over it by tonight (I mean, he's done it before, but I won't hold my breath.)

I'm starting to think just one update a week might be saner for me, especially since I'm deviating from my original outline. I'm not re-writing my original story plans so much as just adding stuff between. My projection of 30+ chapters at completion is starting to feel unlikely. 50+ seems more reasonable at the rate I'm going. For instance, chapter 10 was originally supposed to wrap up the day in-story, but now it's not. Ah well...

Look forward to the new chapter!

What is your secret! How w do your write new chapters so quickly. I could only write like 2000 words a day, A DAY. You post new chapter every few days. Like damn. Just damn. Tell the truth, I'm quite jealous of your skill.

Respect. You have my respect.

Thanks! :twilightsmile:

Pre-planning helps! Also, for like six years I wrote this web series on a weekly basis. It was hard, but I gained a lot of discipline and learned to write even when I didn't "feel" like it.
