    An Optional Result of Caustic Boredom

    What happened was the exact opposite of what I had hoped would happen; my mind blanked out and I couldn’t map out the plotline for “The Furthest Stars,” not beyond chapter eight. I couldn’t see the point or potential in it anymore, nor in any of the dozen-plus pony fics I have planned. I can’t explain it properly, but for me, writing and posting on this site seems to be more

    An Exercise in Being Subpar

    I’ll be spending the week away from my computer (and my eyes ought to thank me), so I won’t be able to post any stories (a good thing, some might say). I’ll be using the time to come up with story ideas and flesh out the plot of “…The Furthest Stars” and wonder why I’m incapable of writing anything halfway decent.

    It was probably a mistake coming up with this account.

    Cleaning House (Grumpy Pony Remix)

    Fixed the spatial issues in the three chapters of “…The Furthest Stars;” hopefully they didn’t cause much confusion. The story itself should do that just fine.

    Cleaning House

    Before I leave for my unwanted trip, I’ll be taking time to edit and post chapter four of “…The Furthest Stars,” as well as cleaning up what I already have on the site. I’m still getting used to the formatting on Fimfiction, but I think I can get it done in time. I’ve noticed some problems in chapter three of “…The Furthest Stars” that I already took care of, problems that I know

    Trapdoor Days and other Flights of Fancy

    It’s been nearly a month since I started writing MLP fanfiction again (“again” meaning I’ve written several stories half a decade ago and was too nervous to post them online; I’m content to write, but to have people actually read and judge my work is something my thin skin hasn’t developed immunities against), and I think I’ve made up a decent enough backlog that I think I’m ready

Now that I read this, I really want to take a look at your fics fast. Giving up should never be an option, even if your start is rocky and your fics aren't well received.
From a first glance, I can name two reasons why your first two fics haven't received much interest. The first reason is that Tempest Shadow has gotten a lot of fics about her redemption and about how her life continues after the Storm King's defeat since the movie, so it's hard to get such a fic attention still.
The other one is, stories about OC ponies get very little views in most cases, because most readers prefer to read about ponies we see in the show/comics books, rather than fan-made characters. An exception for this is very rare.

None of these reasons have to do with your writing talent, so you shouldn't worry about this too much.
