It's been a while · 3:21am Oct 20th, 2012
I've been inactive for quite some time now, and have failed to add new stories for too long to even think about.
Of course, when Season 3 starts that will all change, but for now motivation is hard to find, and therefore writing stories is hard to do. However, that doesn't mean I don't have anything in store.
My next writing assignment is to write something for Chromosome's "horror fanfic" competition. Although I'm not generally fond of the horror genre (comedy is more up my alley), I take it upon myself to try my hand at writing a story without including comedy. Of course, this does mean that all my other works have to come for a halt for the time being, as the horror fanfic competition has a due date, and I can't be late, I simply can't.
Also, another parody story is slowly being churned out as it comes hot off of outline form and into rough draft form. However, compared to My Little Stashie, this one will be significantly harder to pull off. And no other fanfic has as large of a viewership as MLD that isn't 600k words long. And parodying cupcakes just reminds people of it, and people don't like that. So in the near future, probably a week or so, expect a new parody. It shall be glorious, and infuriate the author of the original by how badly I butcher the characters.
I feel like I haven't submitted anything in forever and I'm terribly sorry. I can't wait to start writing and submitting again and improving my writing. I'm still looking for generally popular fanfics that are easily parodied (receive a lot of criticism like MLD), along with finishing up some old stories I never finished. The End Of Ponyville is dying to receive its fourth chapter, and that is in the works, although it is queued underneath the horrorfic and the parody, and a continuation of the story "Changeling" is next.
Among all these things Season 3 has a release date, and my pony hibernation is coming to a close (thank goodness). I, along with the rest of you, shall squeal along in delight as a new season dawns upon us, a new age. Hopefully, during this time, new characters are introduced, and thus fruit baskets full of comedy fanfics shall be produced from mine tree.
Hopefully, people start shipping these new characters, and I can write more chapters for "How Every Shipfic Would Actually Happen". And, if enough new characters are added, it may warrant a second version.
I just wanted to post a quick little update, let you all know I'm still alive and ready to write, and let you know the schedule (if you care).
I'm open to any suggestions as always, feel free to leave me a PM about anything, and I'll see you all very soon with new stories.
Also, one last thing; there are two things I'm bad at. One of them is tennis. The other is editing. I can never seem to edit my work and get all the grammar mistakes out of my writing. And it always is a pain to have to read through my own story multiple times to fix a bunch of mistakes I made (because if you haven't noticed, I do minimal editing on all my stories). And since I don't have anybody pre-read, they almost always have grammar, spelling, or other mistakes hidden somewhere.
Which is why I humbly ask you guys, the readers, to help me with this process by pointing out some of these mistakes that you notice if you decide to read any of my future stories and then either comment or message me about the mistakes you passively find while reading. This helps immensely, as multiple eyes can spot more mistakes than I can alone, it saves me time trying to figure out the things I don't know about grammar (I'm terrible at it), and helps me fix my writing to make more sense in somebody else's mind, which is always good. And please don't feel obligated, I'm fine with editing myself.
Anywho, that's about it, so I hope to see you all soon and to get writing again.
Many Regards,
TheOnly
It's going to be White Box isn't it
Not to mention, Discord's coming back in Season 3~
Anyway, glad to see you back on the fanfic train!
I love your writing!
434645 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It's okay TheOnly! It's not like you have to write fan fiction or anything! It's true that you are in opinion one of the best comedy writers ever, but you will lose no respect or anything no matter how long it takes to pump out your genius. And I think you would be a good horror writer, I truly had chills reading Eventual Death!
Write a story about Twilight Sparkle analyzing a story about analyzing herself analyzing a story from Train Wreck Explorers.
WOAH
WOAH
WOAH
WOAH
Woah
Do another chapter of the end of Ponyville. It shall be glorious, and eggplant shall rain from the sky.
Good luck.
Really, with your story, "How every shipfic would happen", you haven't even come CLOSE to listing all the combinations.
Yes. It is.

Oh my.
435311 It's kinda hard to do shipping pairs that aren't popular, and/or are hard to parody. That's why you don't see a lot of them on there.
435709 Yeah, well you only really need one source to work it out.

Someone should sync that to clips from FIM episodes where it looks like the characters could be saying those things.

Never been too seriously interested in video editing... Not enough to buy anything related to it, anyway. Not like the three different music programs (all cheap
