    That She-Ra Fanfic is Published

    Chapter one and the prologue are out. Chapter two is written. Chapter three is being written. If you want to see Catra be She-ra and a much more emotionally damaged She-ra at that, maybe click the link: https://archiveofourown.org/users/Distaff_Pope/works

    Non pony fanfics

    So, despite saying I wanted to write original work, I realized I still love writing fanfiction. I'm also pretty solidly out of pony fanfics beyond an unsettled itch to get back into Sweetie Belle's head. Luckily, other shows exist with other damaged girls with undiagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder. What I'm saying is, I'm dabbling with a She-ra fanfic where Catara becomes She-ra and was

    Adapted Out

    Ok, so by now, I think I've gone through enough stories to talk about things from the source material that aren't going to be a factor. Most of the reasons why they're omitted should be kind of obvious, but I want to run through them anyway. Note: I love all the things I'm about to talk about, and it hurts me to not include them, but they're not best for this story. I'm just explaining my

    "Marked for Evil" is now "We Killed the Dinosaurs"

    Just a quick PSA. I've changed the title for my current story because Marked for Evil just seemed so angsty. We Killed the Dinosaurs seems less so, in contrast, and I think speaks to the heart of the work more. I'm also debating changing cover art to show the meteor hitting earth and dinosaurs looking on moments before their doom, but I want feedback on that first.

    A Little Rewrite

    So, someone pointed out to me yesterday that they had some issues with the magic camera. The first being how easily Sunset rolled with it once she got photographed, and also how convenient the camera was. In light of that, I rewrote a bit of chapter three and a good bit chapter four. So you don't all have to reread the chapters to see the changes, I'm posting the major changes here. The first is

Other Writing Projects · 8:28pm Dec 12th, 2018

So, for people who care to look, it's no secret I left fanfiction after finishing my Epic of Sweetie Belle to try and write original fiction that I can share with people without feeling a twinge of shame/maybe monetize. I got a quarter of the way through two stories and am currently working on a third.

Actually, that's what I want to bring up, I'm trying to alternate between Marked for Evil and the aspiring novel, so if there's ever a lull between updates, I'm probably dealing with that.

I'm going to end with two prompts: 1.) I have chapter four of Marked for Evil written and in need of editing. Normally, I write the next chapter, then edit the previous one, but I'm just now getting back into writing Minnesota Nice, and that means I have a chapter to finish before I start work on chapter five. Should I edit now and publish or stick to my usual routine?

Also, I've kind of been toying with creating a website to post non-horsie short stories or maybe this memoir I wrote a few months ago, but I'm not a tech person and this is extremely daunting (I also have been itching to try streaming, but there's a voice in my head saying whatever I do will be complete trash). If anyone wants to offer advice on how to set up a decent looking blog for cheap, offer moral support, or just weigh in on the idea, please do so! Hope to see some of you in the comments.
