    "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.

A Transition in Writing · 1:07am Oct 19th, 2019

Good Morning from my Writing Lair! This is Shadow_8472, and today, I updated the prologue for A Tale of Two Worlds. Let's get started.

This change marks a transition in my time here. I placed the story on hold to write a few shorter stories and learn even more. Stryker has also started ahead with a sequel to the original role play which may or may not get novelized.

Looking forward, I want to plan out a series of goals for myself. Weekly blogs apply pressure, and I sometimes feel like I've been neglecting my robotics blog, Let'sBuildRoboticsWithShadow8472, where I try to write at least 300 words weekly. My eventual goal there is to build up the skills to construct a social robot based on the Sweetie Bot project. Silly me thought I could do it in a year, but as fan projects often take second priority to other things in life, they have only released the software to simulate it, and I've only made a Raspberry Pi shaped like a Pac-Man ghost I call Blinkie Pie.

As for writing, I still have a few ideas I want to save for when I'm better. I have a number of shorter ideas for events after the end of AToTW I, but I don't want to give too much away. I feel similarly pressed in that there isn't really enough to ramble about between chapters without spoilers. One possibility is that I might do a monthly writing update, punctuated by weekly posts where I find a fiction to read and review it.

Final Question: What was your favorite season story arc?
