    November 2023 update

    Well it's about darn time, wouldn't you agree? Feels good to be writing again.

    So why haven't I been writing? A multitude of reasons, but I'll talk about the big ones.

    "Always Had" is Officially COMPLETED

    It's been almost two years since the last chapter of Always Had was published. This whole time it's been marked as "Incomplete", but tonight I finally decided to move forward with the next stage of the story in a separate fic and mark this one as "Complete", as Twilight's adventure of being Clover the Clever is ended and her slice of life as Clover has only just begun.

    Gusty the Great

    1. Has a horn
    2. Has wavy hair that seems to flow even when there's no wind
    3. Apparently flew away from Mt. Everhoof before teleporting away

    I'm calling it now: Gusty's an alicorn.

    Christmas Fic

    Writing a musical is difficult.

    Hopefully I'll have it done in the next couple weeks, because I want to publish it before Christmas.

    Happy Anniversary

    On this day eight years ago, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic premiered on the Hub Network. A bunch of grown men decided to watch it as a joke, and then realized that it was actually a pretty good show.

Writing in Present Tense · 1:58pm Mar 24th, 2018

I'm currently working on a story where it's basically a succubus AU set in a wasteland. Sunset Shimmer and Twilight Sparkle, under the names Hellfire and Midnight respectively, are the main characters. And I've chosen to write it all in present tense, as opposed to the past tense everyone is used to writing and reading.

It can be difficult sometimes reminding yourself not to use what you're used to. I'd imagine it's similar writing in second person point of view. On the plus side, though, it will require me to take a keener eye when proofreading it to make sure I don't miss any tense mistakes, which will also lead to catching other mistakes and awkwardly written areas.

Keep your eyes peeled for "Devils" (rated T) in October, unless I decide to start releasing it earlier.
