Blog Number 203: "Writers Can't Do Math" Edition

It turns out I made a couple of errors - one of them a whopper - when I wrote one of my fics this year. Here's a record of those errors, in the hopes I might avoid making them twice. 🤞

There are two fics that I thoroughly enjoyed, and I remember seeing them here on FiMFiction.

The first was an AU focusing on Rarity, Rainbow, and AJ traveling through foreign lands to get a plant to cure a disease in Twilight's magic that is lethal if not treated. There were hornblades and other things. Its been a while since I've read it, so that's all I really remember.

Next year, I want to try writing a collection of stories for a concept I covered on my YouTube channel for a potential Friendship is Magic spin-off.

In the past, (as an American) I have been reluctant to tell people "go vote". After all, with all the electoral shenanigans and gerrymandering and whatnot, it was difficult to recommend something that didn't always work.

Hey, it is I, Trust Issues.

Today I have opened a fanfiction account so I can write more than mlp related stories. Such as a Skyrim story that I'll be working on.

Here's the link---> Trustybones Yes, Trustissues was already taken apparently. So if you liked my writing, maybe you can give my non mlp story a chance.

Hey everyone, Doktor here and I want to consult you on something: I had been writing a side story for the story named Spectrum, a story that belongs to The Conversion Bureau Franchise. I had written one and a half chapters for the story I had in mind and I am planning to continue and join this project.

Should I go for it?

I want to know how to write a fanfic but I don't know how to do it. Anyone think they could.lend me a helping hand. I have meny ideas but I don't know how to do it.

My god, that was painful. Just the simple act of having to click the submit button in order to go through the process of posting the story was painful. I've always known I had a bit of a perfectionist outlook on things I've created but...

So, after an INSANELY long hiatus, I''m back! Gonna be updating my stories like Solpsism soon! :)

This story is...interesting. I say this because at one point something happens in this story that I did not see coming. It was a pleasent surprise and a teriffic thing that happened to me. IT was something that told me that I could make some pretty decent OCs if I try hard enough. In this story based on...

The other fanfic is on hiatus. But, I am working on another, and would greatly appreciate a proof reader.

Simply contact me at cottonbloom300@gmail.com if you're interested :D However, I'll be looking for an experienced proofreader, meaning, you have proofread before (atleast one time) and are reliable (meaning you won'y give away the fanfic access code or anything that involves completely changing the fanfic.)

Hey guys,

A quick update on the poll for "Rise of the Apple Princess" as to whether you want me to continue it as it is or if you prefer a re-write.

So far the vote stands at a total of 12. With "Continue" the fanfic is winning by 8 votes and "Re-write" has only 4 votes.

Howdy folks, it’s been a while! Sorry about that, it’s been … a rough year, but I don’t need to tell anyone here that. I’ve been largely shielded from the worst of it personally, as my day job’s one that can be done remotely, so I’ve been working from home since mid-March, with no plans to be back in the office ‘til June of next year at the earliest. It’s left me cooped up and a bit down most of the time since, but overall stable and well-off compared to a lot of folks. One thing that

For every American who says your vote doesn’t matter, and that politics has no direct impact on your life...

gestures broadly

There are several reasons why people write fanfics. But I think that most people who write fanfics will agree that most people who write fanfics do so for the same reason as the people who create the original content that those fanfics are based on. The question then is, why do writers write the intellectual properties that fanfics can be made from?

I am in dire need of beta readers in helping posting my stories. That is if people are still writing MLP: FiM stories on this site and people are still reading them. I need major help when it comes to grammar and if such stories are worth posting. Also, I'm Iooking for someone that can handle, or at least be okay, with reading mature content. If anybody out there that is interested, please send my a message.

So, phase two or, as I'm calling it now and should have been calling it from the beginning, act two for Discord is done. I had thought I finished it last night, though I didn't plan to work on it that much last night, but I went back and did some changes and made it longer. It was pretty short. I also started Pinkie's part for act two already. She is actually halfway done. And after I finish her, I got to go back and do some changes to Harry's act two and add some more to finish him off. Then

Well... the post's title likely speaks for itself... but as I said, I made an edit to the summary of Chapters of a Revamped Tome.

To explain what the edit includes, I simply added the following explanations:

- Elements from extended media other than the various IDW comics will also be adapted or retooled (I still have to decide exactly which ones)

Just a reminder that the fic I'm uploading, 'Title Holder', is still going on and it's really fun. Spread the word, if you will.

I'm quite proud of this fic. It's full of legit wrestling moves, horse puns, music references, friendship, and the best yak of them all.

Also, please let me know what you think about it. Depending on how this fic is received by y'all, I might do the last fic I have planned.
