    Update 4 - Is anyone still here?

    So...I've journeyed around. Had time to think. A lot of things have happened. But ultimately we're back here.

    Update 3 - Queries, PTSD and upcoming plans

    I swear I have some kind of Ponyfic ADD, I swear.

    Anyways, the main reason I made this - how do you define a Major and Minor character? Is it their Screen time? Character Development? Relevance in the Story? Preferred flavor of Ice Cream?

    Update 1

    Okay, so...about the current ongoing stories...

    The Pony Who Fell to Equestria is still on hiatus. Right now, I'm about one chapter away from finishing it off...and we've hit a brick wall. HARD. It hurt my face.

Okay, so...about the current ongoing stories...

The Pony Who Fell to Equestria is still on hiatus. Right now, I'm about one chapter away from finishing it off...and we've hit a brick wall. HARD. It hurt my face.

The Iron Wars (or to give it it's full name - The Dark Side of Equestria: The Iron Wars) has about two or three chapters left. I am midway though writing the third chapter right now, but have been delayed due to a mix of Hard Drive failure (good thing I use Google Docs) and Borderlands. But we should be getting back on track pretty soon. However, we may also be hitting a block pretty soon - all the Chapters so far were written with Objectives in mind. Chapter 4 currently does not have one. Does it have things I want to show? Yes, but no actual objectives to do. That, and I have no idea how well the reception is going over. On a last note in relation to this - there may be things deliberately written in to be slightly amusing in some sense, but there isn't a comfortable slot where Humor can be slotted in without completely destroying the tone set up.

Anyways, must get back to cooking tea. Just keeping people in the loop.

Ok then, I'll wait. Seriously, I love Iron Wars. I don't know why not many people read it... Its just so awesome!

390185 We're getting there, though there's a lot of roadblocks in the way. I don't mean to insult anyone, but there's no way we can work in humor without seriously breaking the tone. At the same time, it does give the reader a break before the next slot of "grimdark".

EDIT - Not many people read my stuff because...because we're not a very good writer, I guess, I dunno. Chocolate Milk.
