    Stuck again lol

    So I've had my fimfiction tab open for weeks and every time it's been a reminder of my unfinished work, but at this point I've gotten almost ashamed that I haven't driven myself to finish more work lately. It's not that I don't want to, it's like every time I try to write I'm struck with doubts about myself and my own ability to even make anything that people would be interested in. I hate that

    Working updates

    So these few weeks are full of stuff, and I keep opening up my notes on my fanfic and looking over everything, but not much has been getting done sadly. Being club president of a gaming org at my school, setting up various IRL events and keeping up on my studies are all taking a lot of time and I'm bouncing back and forth between tasks and ideas with this and with so many other things to balance

    The return of Frozen Hearts!

    Okay so the fifth chapter is shorter and the quality may have dropped, but me getting back into my groove will help me improve things as I reread my previous material, write out my notes better and flesh out ideas for locations, ponies, non-ponies and storylines. I'm remembering more and more conversations I've had with people about what I've wanted to put in here, and I'm probably going to do a

    Just about ready...

    So the next chapter is likely going to be a fair bit shorter than the previous ones, but honestly that's not the worst. It stops at a good, natural break spot and I've written beyond that so the chapter afterwards is already in the making. I'm just going to check over it, get some feedback on it and then I'm ready to release!

    Keeping people posted!

    So it's been like a month since my inspiration returned and yet, no results are online. Well, through the holidays I looked at what I wanted to do, and started structuring what I planned to do next (locations, characters, events, all those nice tidbits) but haven't written out a full version of anything yet due to a lot of vacation time, followed by returning to extra hard work for school stuff.

Fallout: Equestria - Frozen Hearts · 1:45pm Dec 19th, 2019

I don't know if anyone will read this. I don't know if anyone will even remember this old story. I don't fully remember a lot of site functions, but I'd like to write this as a message to anyone who does remember, as well as to myself.


It's been over 3 years since last I was focused on Frozen Hearts. I had a lot of ideas at the time, I had a lot of things to do in it, but I lost the drive a little, and it showed. I wanted longer chapters, I wanted more details, I wanted more setup and threads to pull on much later in the story.

Let's be real; I wanted something that could one day equate to the absolute insanity that was Fallout: Equestria - Project Horizons, as well as the original that started this whole thing.

But I overestimated myself, and when I started falling into patterns outside, I lost my drive to push here. I didn't have much contact with any readers outside of comments, and the one person I had contact with was my pre-reader Cascadejackal, who I'm massively grateful still responds to me with my endless time between messages.

It's been over 3 years since I promised I'd come back. I'm a university student, I'm actively helping run student associations and honestly I don't think I've ever been more busy with things in my life. But I feel my spark once again, the creativity returned alongside ideas with Dungeons & Dragons, a growing social circle that supports me, and a much more solid mentality and mindset that I believe can withstand so much more than before.

Basically, I kinda grew up a little. I didn't lose my expression, though maybe it's changed since last I wrote. I look forward to seeing what I can do again, to finding my old notes, or rewriting ideas that never left my mind, even adjusting old chapters.

For anyone who sees this on their feed and remembers the old fanfic that's probably aged poorly, thank you for reading, thank you for any time spared for the old quick flash of inspiration that started in 2015.

Here's to reigniting it and letting this fuse burn all the way to the end that I haven't even begun to think about.

(Lol so I might forget to post updates through here but hey, if anyone really wants to get more consistent contact with me, or join Cascade as a pre-reader/idea wall, feel free to let me know in DMs or whatever~!)

A million thanks from this dumb, lazy writer,
- Kris
