    A Long Awaited Update (June 12th, 2021)

    Hello there, those who still keep an eye on my story and those of you who happen to read this.

    I'm going to be straight with you. I haven't been writing, at all. I mean, I've just started again yesterday. But other than that...

    Updates (January 31st, 2021)

    Hello again.

    If you haven't seen it, TFiTU is now on hiatus. I've made the decision to do so in order to give myself more creative freedom. I will use this time to focus on other things. I want this year to be productive on my end.

    An Update (December 14th, 2020)

    Hello, everyone.

    Well, this disaster of a year is coming to an end, finally. But, I think it's safe to say we've all learned a few things. I sure did.

    First of all, I want to thank the readers of my story, yet again, for sticking with it. I have not given up on it, in fact, I'm positive it's moving forward.

    Progress

    “I wanted to go back.”

    “We all wanted to go back.”

    “I wanted my family!” “Who knows what's going on with them?!”

    “I don’t blame you.”

    “I just wanted to go home. I just wanted Martha to have a good life.”

    “I know. I know, Arthur.”

    “You don’t!”

    “I do. Perhaps more than everyone else in this castle.” “It’ll be okay.” “It’s going to be okay.”

An Apology · 1:56pm Jun 21st, 2020

Hello.

I've always kept to myself, unless I'm pouring my heart out in paragraphs. There was a time when I was motivated, driven, inspired to write, that time is not now. And as much as I hate to admit it, I think I may be a slave to my writing.

As I write these words, I feel like I'm wandering, lost. I used to write because I thought it was fun. I had an idea and I wanted to put it on paper, I did. But, things aren't so simple now.

I never graduated high school, I dropped out during grade eleven. I don't know why I did. I feel limited in my ability to write, because of my education. That discourages me. But I feel that isn't the reason I don't write as much as I want to. Comparison, I think that may be the source. I see all these successful writers and I can't help but feel that I'm not as good as them. Not good enough to be like them.

I've been here since late 2017, I have written and published four stories since I arrived, three of which are unpublished to this day. I'm not proud of that.

It's been a little over a year since I've uploaded To Feel Is To Understand to the site. The most chapters I've uploaded were five. I'm pretty sure I left off with Arthur about meet with half of the Mane Six. The story didn't change much. It still isn't close to ending. I want to apologize for that.

I wish I had a better reason other than simply not wanting to write it. Don't get me wrong, I want to write. I just don't want to.

That isn't to say I'm quitting. I've stuck around to tell a damn good story, and I'm not leaving until I do. That is a promise. And thank you for sticking with mine for so long.

Anyways, I better go. I'll see you in the next one.
Peace.
-D
