    I'm Really Bad at this Writing Stuff

    At the end of October I made a calendar. On that calendar where deadlines of all the stuff I was writing.

    Today was supposed to be the release of the second chapter of a brand new story. Obviously, that's not here.

    I was sitting in computer class at collage when a group of students started sniggering to themselves. There were four of them. The larger two lacked chins and hair held flat to their heads by grease, one was a built like a wall, road a Harley-Davidson and had the same name as a famous whisky brand, and the third, the smallest of the lot and who played lead guitar in a band, currently had his head

    Rediscovering the Joy of Reading and Writing

    For the last 8 months (I can’t believe how fast this year has gone!) I have barely been reading or writing. A constant tied of other commitments, work, studying and other such distractions has occupied my time. In the moments where I do get a chance to breath and start reading or writing, I often fail to do so. Instead it’s far easier to watch meaningless YouTube or play games. It’s not work,

    An Update

    It's been six months since the last update!?

    Yeah... It has. I don't know where the time has gone.

    When I started writing Fallen Canterlot I told myself I would try for a new chapter every 2-3 weeks, and I was able to keep that going. But then I got a job. Now it's 2 years later and the story isn't even half way done.

I'm Really Bad at this Writing Stuff · 8:01pm Dec 1st, 2019

At the end of October I made a calendar. On that calendar where deadlines of all the stuff I was writing.

Today was supposed to be the release of the second chapter of a brand new story. Obviously, that's not here.

I could keep saying that it's just because I do not have time. But that is not true. The truth is that I cannot stop playing games, watching TV, modding games, and simply procrastinating long enough to get the words that I need too out.

It should be easy. It was easy at one point. There was an awesome week back in August where I got so much writing done. But then I woke up late one morning and rushed to work without forcing myself to write. And just like that, suddenly the spell of being able to write was broken.

I had hoped that the deadlines would help. But they didn't. Nothing I have tried has helped. But that doesn't mean I won't stop.

I want to write. I enjoy making the stories. I'm just bad at putting them to paper and telling them to all of you.

The next story is inspired by a picture I once saw long ago now. It's not a serious story, more of a fun thing I wanted to write simply because I think it is a fun idea. The full first draft was almost completed in back in August. The first chapter is now half-way though its second draft. You will see it soon, I hope.

Then, before the year is out, I will finish the elusive 10th chapter of Fallen Canterlot. The one that I have been struggling with for over 11 months now.

I have got to get it done.

I'll see you all later.
