Shimmering Thunder


Because there is sadness, we cherish happiness. And because there is anger, kindness is born.

    Another update

    I probably shouldn't say this, but I'm making good progress. I have written almost four new chapters in a few days. From finishing Chapter 9 to the beginning of Chapter 14, which is probably going to be the last chapter for this part. Considering how long I have been working on this already, this is major progress.

    Update

    I just wanted to say that I'm still working on the sequel to The Power Within. I haven't abandoned writing or this site. I recently got over a major roadblock in my story. However, this doesn't mean that I will publish anything anytime soon. But I still uploaded all the chapters here just in case I need to press the button. I had a small situation irl that made me come back to this project again.

    The poet of darkness

    You failed me,
    My trust you defiled.
    You hurt me,
    My heart you stabbed.

    Give me a reason,
    To forgive...

    My soul you crushed,
    It made me bleed.
    My smile you erased,
    It made me cry.

    Give me a reason,
    To forget...

    Here in the dark,
    Alone and afraid.
    Here in the night,
    Fragile and drained.

    Give me a reason,
    To trust again...

    I'm feeling lost.

    I know I haven't been updating for a long time or anything. I'm just very tired at the moment. I feel like I'm at the end of my rope here. I'm just so tired of everything and everyone. This world. I'm struggling to keep finding any reason to smile anymore. I'm just so bitter, unhappy, depressed and sad all the times. And I have no idea what to do to fix everything. And nobody cares. Nobody listen

Confused (story update) · 9:42am Sep 6th, 2017

The title does not sound very promising, does it? As you may know, I'm almost done with 'The Power Within' and I already said that I wish to complete it this month. Knowing my pace and current problems, that may or may not be possible.

At the moment, I'm quite confused with 10th chapter. I'm already over 2000 words into the chapter, but I almost feel like starting all over again. It just doesn't seem to work. The worst thing is that there are parts I'd really love to use, but if I start all over again, those would be gone as well. So, there's a lot of confusion and conflicts on my part. I'm also thinking an alternative ending for the story, or even an epilog to wrap things up.

The 9th chapter is 99% ready, I just need to find a good editor/proofreader what have you. But I was thinking to edit the rest of the story all at once so I don't need to worry about this every single time I wanna publish a chapter.

I would also love to receive some feedback and comments on my story. And I don't say this to get only positive feedback, but criticism as well. It would help me tremendously if I knew what people thought about the story. What do you like and dislike, are the characters interesting or relatable, how's my English and grammar in general? What about the plot, canon characters, and pacing? I'm really interested to hear all of it. This will not be my last story and I definitely don't want to continue making those same mistakes on my future projects.

And on a side note, I got myself into this awesome group picture! I'm just super happy how it turned out! :twilightsmile:

I won't make a new blog for this, but I think it's safe to say that the story is not going to be finished this month. I can't even promise a new chapter, although the 9th chapter is pretty much done and shouldn't change, it's not edited or proofread. I'm having some problems with the chapter 10 and I am currently re-writing it. It's one big mess right now and I have no clear idea what to do. I'm simply trying out different ways to end the story. I thought I had it all planned out but then I came to think of few things and it kind of destroyed everything.

So yeah, I'm really sorry for the delay. I'm not even working on the story every day because I have so much to do. Maybe I'm overthinking everything and people would like what I had planned, but you never know. I have to do my very best as I don't want to release something I don't like. If anybody wants to help me I can give you the links to my two remaining chapters.
