    Sparks Catch Complete

    Sparks Catch was supposed to be a interquel- a short episode sitting between Myriad Thoughts and Friendship Games.

    Instead, it ended up nearly fifty percent longer than Myriad Thoughts, and established many, many ideas I want to carry forward. So, moving on from here- what do we want to do next?

    Side Stories: and Esmerelda Smith

    Hello, semi-loyal readers! I've finally released the first part of my story about everyone's favorite awesome Granny.

    Go ahead and take a look. The story in question will be an anthology of all of the little ideas I've had while working on the Myriadverse, so expect it to update on occasion, but with fairly short snippets.

    A Train Bound for Nowhere

    ...I was planning on using this blog post to explain that I'd posted a short story one-shot called "A Train Bound for Nowhere." I assumed that it would clue my semi-loyal reader base into he fact I'd actually posted something that wasn't part of a multi-chapter novel.

    Instead, my short story got featured. It's currently sitting at #4 on the featured list.

    Let Me Tell You A Story...

    Once, long ago, there was a young college student who roamed the internet freely. They avoided the worst parts of the web, but had a certain fondness for TV Tropes.

    One day, while wandering, the student found his way into the "fan fiction" section of TV tropes. From there, scornful eyes gazed over the various lemon fics and strange foulness which pervaded the halls of fan works.

    Sparks Catch Published

    Someone mentioned that I should have announced when the sequel to Myriad Thoughts was posted. Well, it is, and has been for the last few weeks.

Sparks Catch Complete · 8:03pm Apr 12th, 2018

Sparks Catch was supposed to be a interquel- a short episode sitting between Myriad Thoughts and Friendship Games.

Instead, it ended up nearly fifty percent longer than Myriad Thoughts, and established many, many ideas I want to carry forward. So, moving on from here- what do we want to do next?

I have a lot of things I want to handle in Stray Thoughts and Small Fires, and I want you to let me know which should get priority.

The Life and Times of Esmerelda Smith
The first chapter of this little mini-story has already been posted. I think I should handle that next.

Biography of Everfree
We've gotten several mentions of Faust Everfree, the mother of Celestia and Luna. I have a lot of ideas whoch will explain her place in this story and how her actions created the Bureau of Reform; as well as the origins of Whyte Stayn, who will act as the secondary antagonist in the next act.

Snippets
Blueblood, Schadenfreude, Sunset, Twilight, Aria; each has a bit of history to share. I've been getting little ideas on character shorts for each of them. I could also share more of Celestia's and Luna's pasts; if that's what you guys are looking for. Heck, I can even write little character studies for each Rainboom and member of Blueblood's new team.

However, one thing I won't be doing anytime soon will be starting Layered Games, the next major installment in the Myriadverse. I need time to get what I want to do ready for that one; I haven't even started working on it yet.

Come, lend me your comments!

Can’t wait to see where you go with your stories, and i’ll Definitely check out ur older ones too

Snippets or Autobiography gets my vote. Just because I've enjoyed your take on Blueblood so much, and I'm also very interested to find out more about Faust in the Myriadverse!

Nothing against The Life and Times, but I was just so pleasantly surprised by this take on Blueblood. XD

I'll certainly get to work on that. However, I just realized that it would be "biography", not autobiography.
Sorry for the mixup.

Bummed that it will be awhile for the sequel.

Easy!
Write all the words!
Seriously, though, whatever you want to do is just fine with me. :yay:

I vote for

1. The Life and Times of Esmerelda Smith,
followed by
2. Snippets,
and finally followed by
3. Biography.

In that order.

How is the writing going? I just read over Myriad Thoughts and Sparks Catch, and thought I’d ask.

Sigh. On ponies? Not well. I’ve been drawn into two other fandoms, and that’s been sapping my writing time. Still, I do plan on coming back here soon. Maybe after the first of the year?

Thanks for checking in, though.
