    Announcing Writing Commissions!

    For the first time ever, I am open to writing commissions!

    I'm sticking to familiar fandoms like MLP, High Guardian Spice, etc, for now, though in future I may expand to original stories. I am charging £10 per 1000 words with the only restriction being no explicit NSFW stories (explicit sex, extreme gore, character torture and the like), though non-sexual nudity is fine.

    High Guardian Spice: Flawed Brilliance and Fantasy Fun (Spoiler review/analysis)

    (Note: This is an updated review to include a greater discussion of spoilers, and to elaborate on one or two points I could have made clear.)

    TL;DR: Though far from perfect, primarily due to the rough-around-the-edges animation, High Guardian Spice does a wonderful job in presenting its fantasy coming of age story, building on common heroic fantasy tropes to great effect.

    High Guardian Spice: Setting a High Bar for Future Western Animation

    Despite all the delays, High Guardian Spice is finally here! I will admit upfront that I have some level of bias, since I'm a non-binary fantasy nerd who loves all things magical and colourful. This show was always going to be on my radar, but has it lived up to my lofty expectations?

    My Little Pony: A new Generation

    My Little Pony: A New Gen is a mixed bag. It has a good setup that builds itself on the legends of FiM, and is a film about the monsters we make ourselves to be. It shows how prejudice and stereotype can be pervasive in culture, playing on our fears of the out-group. It's just a shame the story beats feel so forced, with a portion of the cast being under-developed. The resolution also feels

Night Shift - Sacred and Wild: Post Halloween Update · 11:39pm Nov 1st, 2017

Greetings everypony!

This is just a quick update to bring you patient followers some fantastic news. I have gotten back to writing Sacred & Wild again! Does that mean that it will soon be complete? Well... no, not quite. I have the third chapter done in first draft, and am currently editing it into a second. It still needs to be proof read.

I did want to get it done for Halloween, but unfortunately college, mental health and general limitations on concentration meant that this couldn't be. However that's not to say you'll be waiting half a year for the story to be complete. I aim to get the whole story finished before Christmas, as I do have a couple of other things to prioritise before that, including college assignments.

I will not be participating in NaNoWriMo, considering how utterly terrible my concentration is. So consider November to be "Clean up stories and get shit finished for a change" month :P. After Sacred and Wild is done, I'm going to attempt another horror story that will be a sequel to "The Depths". I've tried writing two or three versions so far, and just haven't been happy with any of them.

However, after taking some time away to write something more familiar and reading fanfics of similar themes, I think I have an idea! Depending on how that goes, I may/may not be able to get "Dance of Death" finished in January as well!

But this is all speculation at this present time. Point is, "Sacred and Wild" will be updating with a new chapter soon. It is written, just needs to be polished 'till it shines.

Thank you for your patience, and I need a new sign out catchphrase :P.
