    Asking for a Favor

    When I planned on returning to the website, the idea was to read a few stories as they came, enjoying them and adding them to bookshelves whenever appropriate. However, my list of stories to read later has been shrinking greatly since then, and I am coming to a point where I'll need to compile a list of more stories to check out. In other words, I'd highly appreciate any story recommendations

    Equestria Girls: Forgotten Friendship

    Just wanted to say it's really good and definitely worth a watch. Won't spoil anything, but there are a few scenes that made me smile or laugh, and I'm pretty sure Sunset Shimmer fans will find a lot to love in the special. There's even quite a bit of lore for those who enjoy looks into Equestria's past. Anyway, feel free to let me know what you thought about the special in the comments.

    Change of Plans

    I suppose this kind of announcement was inevitable, but after getting the okay from a few people, I have decided to be semi-active on FiMFiction. However, there will be some changes around here that will dictate my activities on the site. I suppose they should be described in detail to the best of my ability, and I'll get to them and more after the break.

Quick Announcements for Everyone · 12:56am Oct 13th, 2017

Nothing too specific, but I want to mention a few things since they're on my mind. Anyway, I wanted to mention that I'll start working on an upcoming Chrysalis story this weekend, and it should have its first draft completed by the weekend. After talking over some editing advice with people on chats, I'll be bouncing ideas with some people once the editing process begins, likely as a means to clear up some of the vague suggestions that I may come across, and this should result in an acceptable story. Hopefully, the story will be ready by the end of October, but don't be surprised if the release is pushed back to the beginning of November. The editing process will likely take twice as long as the writing process, after all. :twilightsheepish:

In other news, my entry for the Barcast's most recent contest will not place in the top ten, which was expected. I got this tidbit of news from people who know about the contest's inner workings, and while I'm not surprised, it's just a good feeling that I avoided last place. The results won't arrive until tomorrow, but either way, congratulations to everyone who entered. My writing still needs a lot of work, as most people will attest, but at least it could always be worse. Anyway, I'll keep my eyes open for any future contests, and if the prompt seems friendly enough, I may give them a try. That's one way to practice writing.

Lastly, since I've already covered the episodes from Season 7, I'll probably do a blog post about underrated episodes and character development on Saturday. It'll touch upon a small reason why I wasn't a fan of the movie, but for the most part, it'll focus on the episodes in question and why I grew used to them over time. There will be some surprises on the list, but I don't want to give too much away. Besides, I'm still brainstorming the concept!

I'll let you know if anything else comes up, and I wish you all the best! :twilightsmile:

Good luck with your Chrysalis story. I'll give it a look once it's published.

Thank you! It should be a lot of fun writing a villain protagonist for once. :twilightsmile:

4696204 Villian protagonist... That sounds like an oxymoron.

Also, glad to talk to you in the Discord and know you haven't given up on writing about horses :D

Looking forward to what comes next. Hope you're having a good day!

Thank you! I also hope things are going well for you. :twilightsmile:

I'll be looking foward for tomorrow's blog. The movie has really divided the fandom.

While it was praised by most fans in the beginning, more divisive opinions have appeared as time goes on. I've seen more negative takes on the movie the past couple of days compared to when it leaked or when the movie actually hit theaters. As for the blog post, I will be saying some surprising things about some episodes, but I have my reasons. :twilightsheepish:
