One more update...about A Diamond in the Rough · 12:09pm Nov 7th, 2012
Hey everypony.
Don't worry, this'll be my last blog for awhile, but I want to let you know about the condition of my story.
I'm currently going through writer's block, and as a result, I'm going to edit ALL of my previous chapters in an attempt to correct my grammar and make my story more realistic.
I'm well aware Chapter 22 was fairly unrealistic and the build-up wasn't clear enough, I'm well aware that Diamond's memory of certain events is too clear to be realistic, and I'm also well aware that my pacing is too fast. I will do my best to fix all three of these issues in my top-to-bottom edit.
Thank you for listening, and have a good day.
In all seriousness, i'll be sure to read the rewrites.
take your time do not force the ideas out
Thanks guys. I really appeciate it.
This story is just one big experiment in general, so some editing is definitely in order. I'm pretty sure I'll get some ideas when I'm done editing.
It'll hit you all at once, no doubt. You'll have one day where something clicks and then, blam, a whole chunk of stuff planned out. At least that's the way it has worked for me. Was sort of halfway expecting I'd have another 2 month or so break after chapter 6, like I had previously after chapter 4, and instead got most everything planned to finish off my story in a couple of days, so now I've got my story outlined to completion.
Of course, then you need good writing days to turn the ideas into actual story
