//------------------------------// // (Intermission) Musings // Story: The Legend of Mare-Do-Well // by JD2K //------------------------------// I just can't do it. It's useless. *sigh* Hi! Oh. Hey Pinkie. Aw, why the sad face? ... I really don't feel like talking about it. Is it because the library is gone after that big bad meanie Tirek blew it up? Well, me and the girls went all ZOOM! SWISSSSSH! BOOM! Back in Tartarus! ... Is it because of that alternate world where we are humans? Oh, don't be a silly billy! Just because we are in a high school setting, it doesn't mean it removed everything that made us beloved by all bronies! ... Well lemme think... Is it that Twilight now has wings? Is that it? Gee, I think they're so neat! Princess Twilight Sparkle, Princess of Friendship! Hey, now that we have that castle in Ponyville, maybe we should upgrade to alicorns ourselves! Think of all the possibilities! Pinkie Pie, Princess of Laughter! And Parties! And Sweets! And... NO! That is what I mean! So many things has happened! Due to being far too busy with my real problems, the canon storyline has gone beyond what I wanted to write about in this Mare-Do-Well storyline! I pride myself on writing something worthwhile! Something that people will like to read. I don't want to write something that would make readers roll their eyes at me, saying I changed the stories because I hate it! But it's not true! I like all the changes. I don't mind Twilight being an alicorn or having visited a human world or just losing the library to Lord Tirek! But all these changes go against what I have planned in my stories and I'm depressed because of it! I don't want readers to think I'm rewriting Equestrian history just to fit my world view! Is that it? Whew! For a sec, I thought you were going to delete the story! So what if two whole seasons and two movies have gone by since the last time you wrote something? Everyone has their own way of writing us. I mean, yeah, I know all about Cupcakes, Conversion Bureau, Pony DOT Mov and other renditions of me where I am not like I am. I also know about all the fun IDW comics that make an Equestria far different than the one of the TV show. Your point being? Just because two seasons have gone with so much stuff happening doesn't mean you should give up your idea! I mean, if you still want to keep Twilight a unicorn, that's your way! If you want Golden Oaks to be still there, that's your way! And if I wanted to keep Gummy dead? ...I'm sure there's a reason for that, right? Um, heh...heh... *sigh* Well, I'll try to write something. It's going to be hard to handwave all the changes happening in over 2 seasons. Although some stuff that has happened does indeed help me out. Like giving Bulk his canon name for instance...and going with an original idea I had. You mean the one with the- Yeah that one. Will be hard since I already wrote he's still alive, but it can be changed. After all, I'm the author! That's the way! Thanks for the cheer-up, Pinkie. I'll see what I can do. Still gotta get you back on your feet. So the Legend will trot on? Yeah. Okey dokey lokey! Well, I'll go back to the season wrap-up party! Good luck with the next chapter until it comes out, Mr. Author! Sure thing. Thanks, Pinkie. ...Oh and all of you out there. Stay tuned. I'll try and get something done real soon.
