    Current Plans

    So, as summarily stated in the author's notes of my latest chapter of "The Other Sunset Shimmer," I'm going to be finishing up after this arc. So that's going to be approximately 1-3 more chapters depending on how I feel. Then I'm going to be starting up the Sequel, technically to both, which is going to be a crossover between MLP:FiM and one of five franchises. Those franchises are Star Wars,

    Due to Semi-popular Demand

    I've decided to put The Other Sunset Shimmer on hiatus instead of being fully cancelled. I'll try to edit the chapters so they're better, and there will possibly be the removal of a certain, somewhat unpopular character. However, the offer for guest chapters still stands if there's anyone who wants to write one.

    Pessimism and Sarcasm's final chapter

    So, when I cancelled said fic, I was right in the middle of writing the next chapter. So, instead of having a cancelled fic, I'm going to finish the chapter and then mark the story as completed, as I will have this next chapter be the end of it.

    Done, Just Done

    As of yesterday, all of my stories have been cancelled and shall remain that way until further notice. If anyone would like to adopt any of them, feel free, make sure to comment or PM a link to me if you do so I can see how much better you are at writing them. As you can probably tell, I've henceforth given up on writing my own fiction as I am an absurdly bad author. At some point in the future,

    Possible Cancelations Coming

    Like the title says, I'm really starting to lean towards canceling, if not deleting this story and The Other Sunset Shimmer. Obviously I'm not a very good author, especially given the dislike ratio for this fic isn't doing very well, and this fic is in basically every group that says "See this fic here, don't do this"

Possible Cancelations Coming · 3:04pm Mar 15th, 2017

Like the title says. I know that this story has a great like/dislike ratio, but, well, obviously I'm not a very good author and at this point all this story is doing is confusing people or pissing people off and I'm not sure if I'm going to continue it.

I don't know, anyone know a better writer, one who could adopt/fix this story?

Let me read it through, i'm working on something right now so give me until Monday to give it a good look. If I can find anything of promise i'd probably be willing to adopt it from you. I hate to let a good story, or idea die.

Personally, I think it started great but kinda lost it after introducing a new creature.

I think the story definitely had a good premise, but you just struggled with the execution. Like with any skill in life getting better at something generally starts with being bad at doing it, then practicing until you get better. Don't take criticisms as an attack on yourself; and if you still want to learn to be a better writer, learn from the criticism of this story and use them to write better stories in the future. Remember the difference between a bad writer and a good one is a matter of time and a willingness to learn. Not that everyone can write the next bestseller, but everyone can put in the time, learn from others and get better. I think you really had some good ideas with this story and hope you don't give up on writing stories just because you where not able to get it right this time around. If you actually like making stories I hope to see more from you in the future. Have a great day. :twilightsmile:

4458103 Probably not, besides this "needle in a haystack" good idea that I had, the rest of my ideas centered around my other, even crappier story. I might collab with someone if they request (Probably not going to happen) or offer up ideas for "adoption", but other than that, no. I've given up, as while I have received some good criticism, a lot of the criticism was "Well why is this Sunset Shimmer acting like this and not like the other one?" or "Why aren't you having Twilight meet this Sunset Shimmer, even though she never met a Sunset Shimmer before the movie?" and I don't want to write stories that essentially have to pander, I'd like to write stories that are my own.

Ok, I was just giving a bit of encouragement to stick with it if you enjoyed writing mlp fan fiction. I didn't read what people were saying about it, so I can't comment on that. In the end this is a hobby and if your not enjoying doing it then it's probably better to do something else with your time. I have not tried any writing myself so I don't have any experience listening to other complain about my stories. Good luck, and I gave you a follow; so if you every do try again I'll check it out.

Haven't had the time to really take a good look, honestly i'm having bad health problems and have had to put all my own stuf on hiatus.

4533990 Ah. Well I hope you recover soon then.
