    How's my favorite fanfiction site doing?

    Man, 10 years to the day since I made an account. How time flies amiright
    (lurked without an account for like 3 months but close enough)

    Don't got a lot to say but I saw the date a while back and thought it'd be a neat thing to do, and it's been 6 years since I last did anything.

    So today is my birthday

    Neat I guess.

    I don't plan on doing much of anything besides maybe ordering an expensive pizza from Dominos and just being a pig.
    But yeah, not much going on here besides trying to get a job before our money runs out all together in June.

    So....yeah. Things have been slow.

    Sorry I've been about as productive as a goldfish swimming in syrup. Things here at home have been pretty rough the past months. I had to quit my job at a pizza place because it was wearing my car down faster than I made money, soooooooooooo I've been "in between jobs" for a good 3 months now. And things here haven't exactly been stellar. Writing has once again had to take a backseat to making

Small updates+other news you may find relevent, or not, doesn't matter, just click this. · 3:42am Sep 22nd, 2012

I'm 2K words into the next chapter of Celestia's Bucket List. I'm going to grind away at it tonight until it is at least 5K words, even if it kills me

As a teaser to people who can pay an incredible amount of attention, there's going to be a lot of foreshadowing/word-play to hint at past/future events.
However, most will be hidden so well, I'd be surprised if even 1/4 of them were found.
My word choice in this chapter is very well thought out, not one sentence is just 'thrown in', it has to be perfect
There's one very specific spot of past "foreshadowing" I'm very eager to see if anypony catches


Other news: I've been given the great privilege of being Your Antagonist's pre-reader
In a nutshell, I help with story flow and character development. :yay:

This will not slow me down from writing though.
Which bring me to my final bit here...not often I ask my followers for major input, but there's something that's been on my mind for quite some time now.
Should I temporarily put The Beauty and The Farm Pony on hiatus? It seems Celestia's Bucket List is more popular, even with only one chapter:rainbowhuh:
I'd like to focus solely on my newest one to satisfy demand. I've already put my other un-mentioned works on hold.

Yay or neigh on hiatus for TBATEP?:trixieshiftright:

p.s. Like the new sig?^ Think I'll keep this one.

That's actually a good question... hmm... well if you are going to work on it later you might as well. So long as you do come back to it because there will be people waiting on it (like me!):twilightsmile: And good luck with the story!:twilightsmile:

I'll definitely come back to it.:twilightsmile:
Even if a story gets downvoted into fanfiction hell, I will never abandon it.

Put the image on the line after your name :moustache:

Man, I've been waiting a while to use that picture.
Anyways, what do you think will happen in CBL?
I like to get other perspectives where people think a story is leading.

Azu

man, can I relate to you. I just got bombed with a bunch of stuff to proof. Almost 9000 words worth of stuff.

And I WILL get them done tonight, so help me Celestia!

Another author that likes to foreshadow? :duck: I'll have to keep that in mind as I read. I also love foreshadowing, there's a fair bit in my story. From things in the prologue foreshadowing events all the way to chapter 13, and so on.

I love to see if readers are really paying attention. :raritywink:

In a nutshell, I help with story flow and character development.

That's pretty much what I do, since my grammar isn't the best, but I am confident in my story writting ability. :rainbowdetermined2:

As far as TBATEP goes, You have a great thing going with Celestia's Bucket List, I'd run with it. :raritywink:

374603 Even kinkier, and yep :raritywink:

374604

If you catch the reference I'm referring to, i will mail you a cookie myself.
Literally, I will go to the store, get stuff, make cookies and mail it to you.:moustache:

I laugh every time I see your picture. :rainbowlaugh:

Unfourtunately I haven't read that one yet and here's why. Bucket list = death = sadness = me being depressed, my alternate me comes out, and all I think about is death, darkness, and destuction... so yeah:pinkiecrazy:.
I'm being serious, I have nothing aginst your writing or CBL I just can't really handle sadness all that well, at least not from stories. I always get a horrible feeling in my chest and I can't stand it... I might try to give it a read though, for the sake of me feeling guilty as to not having read your story...:pinkiesad2:

374628
It's...bittersweet.
It has its sad elements, but It's not all sad. I break it up with softer comedy, cheery dialogue and heart-warming scenes.
Right now, it's all sad and mystery, more mystery than anything as you try to figure things out.

Hmm...they should really have mystery as a category tag:pinkiegasp:

And I take no offense in you not reading it:twilightsmile:
To each his/her own preferences:moustache:

374612
This goes for any of you, catch my most difficult reference, and you get a cookie mailed to you.
*Pinkie Promise*:pinkiehappy:
It will be in the second chapter, and no, it wasn't in the preview.

374650
It's kinda like me; I don't read human/crossover ficscdn.broni.es/images/emotes/mlp-rbdshrug.png
And I'll only read Alternate Universe/ OC fics if they're exceptionally good.:duck:

374628

Just read it, with my avatar in your head constantly, like that is the look Celestia is giving EVERYPONY. :trollestia:

Perfection is for Rarity, Celestia and her stories are already perfect.

Gratz on the proof read.

As for the hiatus. I'm not going to give you an answer, and this is why. I would rather wait longer for the story I enjoy, then have you writing a story you enjoy writing less of. Imo, write whichever one you are enjoying for, or in the mood to write. That is how this Paladin Ginger rolls.

And I'll catch those references. I will catch them all. :moustache:

NOW BACK TO MY GAMES! AWAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

374669

And I'll catch those references. I will catch them all. :moustache:

If you manage to find every single one, then I will fly all the way down there and give you a brohoof myselfcdn.broni.es/images/emotes/mlp-dsalute.png

374650
If you do decide to read it before chap 2 is out, I'll unlock the preview-version for you:twilightsmile:

374678

If you can afford to fly, send me a ticket for Bronycon instead. :trollestia:

Kidding, the brohoof works.

374685
I'll try and thanks!:pinkiehappy:

374686
Now that I really think about it...I'd rather not bet something that grand.
I'll just mail you a whole batch of cookies.:pinkiegasp:
Or I'll write a one-shot of your choosing:pinkiehappy:

374622 I haven't seen it for Le Several Years, but I still remember his voice :rainbowkiss:

374698
:rainbowlaugh:I can just imagine you pausing and highlighting every single word/sentence going "does this mean anything?"
"I have to find them all!" dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/misc_Twilight_crazy.png

It's not like I'm writing my own story, working on RP guild concepts, or going to College or anything! I got all the time in the world. :trollestia:

Trust me dude, I will make sure you never forget Tge Beauty and the Farm Pony. Never.

374730
Was wondering when you'd make an appearance:twilightsmile:
Is your body ready for the monstrous task of editing 5K words?
Also, is there actually a word for foreshadowing a past event? "Pastshadowing" if you will.
My searches have come up fruitless.

374721

Now that I know your schedule is all clear, would you like to be my new editor?!?!?!?!?!
I was thinking of condensing the next 6 chapters into one long 30K word chapter.
lol jk:trollestia:

374733
Revealing? Flashbacks? I can't recall anything :ajsleepy:.
Oh and by the way, my MIND is ready. You sick bastard.

374742
Hope you don't mind walls of text:trollestia:
Also, I seem to have forgotten any punctuation at all, so the story is one massive sentence.
You can work with that, right?:trixieshiftright:

dl.dropbox.com/u/31471793/FiMFiction/emoticons/lolface_Celestia.png

374753
I shall be like a mighty construction crew and destroy the wall of text with ease. Punctuation? Ha! I laugh in the face of run-on sentences :rainbowlaugh:.
It. Is. On! :duck:

374789
Run-on sentences?
The whole thing is one, long, 5K word sentence:trollestia:

You best be making a lot of cookies, you got a lot of people watching for it now. :raritywink:

374797
I'll be genuinely surprised.
But, I'm a man of my word.cdn.broni.es/images/emotes/mlp-desalute.png

"Internet, y u no have male ponies saluting emotes?"

374792
It's more of a wibbly-wobbly story-wory...... thing.



Yeah it did get away from me.


Well I can hear you.


Just remember don't blink, blink and your dead. They're fast, faster than you can imagine. Don't turnaround, don't look away, and whatever you do, Don't Blink!

Good luck.

374823
I'm sorry...wat:rainbowhuh:

374825
I've been re-watching Doctor Who while I wait for the new season of My Little Pony. It just sort of..... happened. Look up the episode Blink. The message from the Doctor is where it's from. Sorry about that.

374797>>374698>>374835
You know what, I think I'll change the story depending on anybody catches my stealthy word-play. Don't worry, it won't be a huge change, maybe a sentence or two.
Soooooo, no pressure at all:pinkiehappy:

The fate of this story, rest in your hooves.:trollestia:

You just need to keep in mind one thing. Even if we are right... You can't tell us! :rainbowwild: even if you really want to. This also leaves another window open.

If you want to be a dick creative you can always go

"oh so they all think this is going to happen? well i'm going to make that happen instead!"

in which we all go:

While you sit in your authors seat and go:

This is one of the many reasions foreshadowing is fun... you get to mess with the readers, if you really want to.

If you can deal with my neigh constant trolling, and sarcasm, then yes. You may say friends.

Otherwise...
