...Well, that's... Wowzers.

The celebratory story ain't—shock—done yet, but I'm working on it.

Still, thank you so, so much for reading. :twilightsmile:

I'm still waiting on 'Twisted Choices Through Time' to update, I won't be giving up anytime soon... Unless you mark it cancelled.

Arent we all?
Why are the best scifi\space operas I read nearly consistently involving ponies?

So I just read a few of your stories and I'm loving it.

Excellent world building, great characterization, interesting ideas, and extremely great writing the only problem is I want more.

Is there a dark god you sacrificed your soul to as I want their number.

The crones are three, and their names as terrible as their gnarled visages:

Effort, Effort, and Effort.

:fluttershbad:

Jokes aside, it's trite but true: practice makes perfect. I know that old 'ten thousand hours to reach genius' is somewhat discredited nowadays, but I still think there's a nugget of truth in it.

That, and I think it's important to write what you yourself would wish to read. It can hurt terribly to pour an entire weekend's worth (or even more) of heart and soul into a story idea, just for it to patter out into bland mush in act three... :raritydespair:

But as long as you pick yourself up and keep writing, it's practice, and thus not wasted. Espacially if you manage to reuse some part of it later. :raritywink:

I think it's because both MLP and space operas are Utopian settings (in general), actually, and...

Well, too blunt, the general trends in fiction for the last few years have been more dystopian.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, and I'm trying not to be political. Just an observation that there's been a few more Hunger Games out there these last few years then, say, Gurren Lagann's.
