IN WHICH THE INSANITY DEEPENS
Hey, a double feature! How 'bout that? Let's go back to my roots and talk a little bit about verb tenses and points of view. Basically, when you start writing your story, you choose one of two tenses, past or present, and one of four points of view, first-person, second-person, third-person limited, and third-person omniscient. What do all those mean? Let's dig in and find out.
This list is gonna be a tough one, ranking all thirteen writers for Season 8 from worst to best using only what they wrote for this season and nothing more. The writing for Season 8 was an odd mix of veterans from Seasons 4 and 5, and new additions for this season, or writers returning after only writing for Season 6 or Season 7 but not both. As always, this list is purely the result of my personal opinion so please respect it. Now let's see who ends up where, I predict there will be at least a
I have a problem. I'm a very imaginative, artistic person, however everything that catches my attention can completely throw me off what I was working on. I must have eight stories that never grew past the first two pages, all of which could have been good works of fiction if I could just have focused better. Even now, I've considered writing a story simply by playing a card game and hearing a good song, yet probably won't due to my record of abandoning projects that barely even start.
I updated the weakest writers and now it's time to update the strongest writers. Here's the second version, from a season ago. You know the drill, this is purely the result of my personal opinion. Now let's see what changed.

AlicornPriest is a great friend of mine and has helped me a lot on many of my projects. I feel the quality of my writings are almost 100x greater than they were before he looked at them. I ain't exaggerating. I really feel he's helped me grow as a writer - and he wants to help you, too.

Hey guys. So The past week I've been trying to think of story ideas. But I just can't think of one. I think i'm in this thing people call the writers block? I 'm literally thinking all day for story ideas but nothing pops out. If you guys have any ideas the please do share them with me. I will credit you if I use them. So yeah. Have a good day, night or afternoon. Wherever or whenever you are.
Peace
It saddens me a lot to do this but I've tried to write the latest chapter of The Mare in te Warp for months now and I struggle to write more than two sentences at a time... It is incredibly frustrating and believe me whatever disappointment you may feel, I feel tenfold... I'll still work on it but I feel like it is the correct thing to do... Thanks for your patience and I hope I'll be able to finish this chapter (and this story) soon...
I have WAY too many unfinished stories that I MIGHT finish but I'm experiencing quite a bit of writer's block. So I'm probably gonna take down some of my stories :(. Comment below what stories you want to see and maybe I'll continue them.
Thanks,

It's October, the spooky month, and that makes this an excellent month to release the starting chapters of a new mystery story! The Princess in the Coffee Shop has a new cover image by Helmie waiting for a coordinated release along with the launch of the story. It was really cool getting to commission him, and I'm really excited for you all to see what we've made here! I also commissioned additional supporting images from other artists
So, for those few people paying attention, I have writer's block. I have a lot of the story planned out and could probably update, at the least, weekly but due to one little thing I cannot write anywhere near as much as I wish to.
Psychic spies from China try to steal your mind's elation
And little girls from Sweden dream of silver screen quotation
And if you want these kind of dreams it's Californication
It's the edge of the world and all of western civilization
The sun may rise in the East at least it's settled in a final location
It's understood that Hollywood sells Californication
Pay your surgeon very well to break the spell of aging
Celebrity skin is this your chin or is that war you're waging?
Title says it all. Ever since Hunted, things have been going downhill, and noone decided to tell me why they hate my stuff.
I've gotten nothing but dislikes, low views, and I hit Writers' Block big time.
I don't know what I should do. Should I quit writing? What do you all think?
Note to Self: Do not write down a detailed idea of what to write next in a story. Instead write down a teaser about what might happen next. Don't defuse the excitement; enhance the need to write at the next opportunity!
Once again persistent effort proves rewarding. The Equestria Daily WTG prompts for Party Pooped struck me as unappetizing fodder. If anything, I thought it at most an opportunity to write something really short, like barely 1000 words short. The only thing I could think of was a My Dinner with Andre moment with friends just talking, but talking like adults. I struggled over two days and barely got 300 words. Then Fluttershy took over the narrative and turned secretive. What fun. The
What gets me going as a writer?
Well, I'd probably say the biggest thing that motivates me to write is music. Every time I come up with an idea for a story, or write a chapter, I'm constantly listening to music. The music helps dictate the mood and feel I am trying to go for, and usually I go for sad music.
Apparently, there is someone who tries to write about various realistic, fantasy, and sci-fi horses:
