    Important Note

    I have the next chapter written up but it is unedited at the moment and right now I have bigger concerns to get to. On 12/5/19 my mother (72) had a mild stroke but thankfully she lives with me at the house here, and when she collapsed coming out of the bathroom I just happened to be in the hallway to catch her. We cant afford the medical what so ever but trying to figure something out with

    Funding

    Before Christmas rolled around I had a look over my finances along with my life and decided to follow some other's in creating a Patreon account to help fund my writings. This is purely a donation system based out of your good will towards seeing me continue my works. Never have I done anything like this but everything needs to start somewhere and with any luck I can make enough to fuel my desire

    Next Story: Zebrican Warlord

    This is very long:

    As I have already hinted at before my next story takes place far from Equestria and the politics of that happy, go-lucky land and instead focuses on a region of the planet that I barely touched upon: Zebrica and Saddle Arabia.

Underworld and Beyond · 6:49pm Feb 7th, 2018

If on the odd chance anyone ever reads this:

The aim of my stories is to be a bit more realistic in approach to people and how events unfold, albeit rushed. Having been on FimFiction for so long (and my bookmarks/favorites are rife with evidence) stories have become... Mundane. Every story I read about "X in equestria" always goes the same way: scared, pee's pants, runs, cries, scared of ponies, bangs ponies, becomes bad-ass without trying, cries some more, bangs every pony in sight or a handful, big bad alpha, wins the day, woohoo...

My writing Underworld is my way of getting away from this, introducing two characters that skip around this by having one who is enigma and one who is learning the hard way about how the world REALLY works behind the scenes.

Another goal is to avoid writing about areas that are frankly... Trodden to DEATH. An entire planet exists out there full of possibilities and I intend to fill it in bit by bit with my own wild ideas of what it looks like. This also means nothing I write takes place after Tirek's little rampage and also that Equestria Girl's does not exist. Still, there is so much room to explore I intend too.

I have/had three more works in mind, one was Highwayman, but I might scrap it in favor of another that came to mind which will change focus and location. All of this assumes my attention can be held by my writings, so far Underworld has held it rather well now that I am at chapter 14 and counting which is a first.

That's all for you one or two readers out there.

Oh yeah. I remember following you because of a conversation we had at some point. I think I was giving feedback for an idea or something...

Welp, I guess I'll make good on that and read your story mate. Expect feedback for that as well, lol.
