    "Equestria, My Home" Extended Lyrics

    Good Morning from my Writing Lair! This is Shadow_8472, and today, I am sharing my extended lyrics for "Equestria My Home." Let's get started!

    Equestria, the land I love
    a land of harmony
    Our flag does wave from high above
    for ponykind to see

    Equestria, a land of friends
    where ponykind do roam
    They say true friendship never ends
    Equestria, my home!

    Pulp Crossover: Fluttershy Joins the Dark Side

    Good Morning from my Writing Lair! This is Shadow_8472, and today, I am exploring a crossover my sister suggested. I had a false start writing it as a first draft, but it didn’t feel like it could go anywhere. I’m iterating ideas faster than I can record them. Hopefully, I can come up with something worth someone editing into a story. Let’s get started!

    Blog Reformat

    Good Morning from my Writing Lair! This is Shadow_8472, and this month, I've stepped back from weekly posts here. Let's get started!

    As I said before, maintaining both a robotics blog and a writing blog is just a little too much for me long-term. I still want to do a little writing, so here I am, now on a monthly basis.

    KSC's New Manager

    Good Morning from my Writing Lair. This is Shadow_8472, and today, I'm going to try writing a scene for a prospective fanfiction I want to at least toy around with without committing to a full first chapeter. Let's get started.

    I've recently gotten the DLC for Kerbal Space Program. I want to try writing a scene or two and see if it turns into anything.

New plan for AToTW release. · 3:14am Aug 31st, 2019

Good morning from my Writing Lair! This is Shadow-8472, and today, I am changing the format of release for A Tale of Two Worlds. Let's get started!

When I first started work on my story, publishing any part of it was only a dream. The role play it's based on was over, and we had even started on a sequel. Before I knew it, a full year and more passed without much work toward story writing.

Maybe it was the series ending that sparked me to publish, or maybe it was a whim. But I finished up the first chapter and published. I wanted to keep to a weekly schedule without resorting to tiny chapters, but I also want to tell the best story I can.

It is clear now that I cannot keep up with both my original goals. However, I have a compromise. From now on, I am going to have supersections of chapters. Parts, acts, arcs, what have you. When one chapter arc is done, it will be released on a weekly schedule. In-between, the story will go on hiatus.

Final Question: What do you think about this plan? Is it the better of both worlds, or a bad idea?
