Secrets of A Nightmare Returned · 4:40am Aug 21st, 2015

Well now A Nightmare Returned has been finished and posted in its entirety. It was a lot of work and ended up being my longest story to date. I am proud of it, but also tired and exhausted. Even now, thinking about it wears me out. However, since it is finished, I can share some stuff about that readers might be interested in or curious about.

That moment when you realize your Christmas story isn't a Christmas story anymore after the fourth draft · 12:30pm Dec 17th, 2015

I've been working on Merry Christmas, Dear Twilight off and on for the last several days. I keep deciding that I'm starting it in the wrong place and go back to do a new outline. Tonight I wrote up a 1600 word long outline on the story, and realized that by the middle of it I was writing a completely different (and not at all Christmasy) story, and that while the Christmas elements of it made sense in context, the story was not the Christmas story I had previously envisioned, and had

You know what really grinds my gears? · 3:19pm Mar 6th, 2016

I don't think it comes as any surprise that Fluttershy is my favorite pony, if my avatar and my extensive collection of fluttershy related merchandise irl are anything to go by, so you can imagine that nothing pisses me off more when my favorite pony is written incorrectly.

Dear Xenophiles · 4:15am Oct 19th, 2017

I know it's been a long time since the last chapter and in case anyone was wondering, yes, there's more and the story isn't dead. I'm about half dead, but the story isn't. The next chapter has been in the works little by little all this time, but it's coming together, I assure you. Just thought that'd be nice to hear for some of you, maybe.

Have nice days!

Hero Souls Plots · 4:19am Nov 27th, 2017

Alright, here's the deal. I have a few subplots going on at the same time, alongside the main plot. Trying to cover them all at once is something I am becoming increasingly aware is a bad idea.

A VERY bad idea. That's what led to the procrastination-slash-forgetting to begin with.

Hey everypony! · 2:31pm Sep 17th, 2017

Hey there! I am Coffee Latte, but Coffee is just as fine to call me. I decided that it would be a fun thing for me to not only create and produce well-written stories, but also act as a reviewer. I find that when it comes to erotic stories, ponies are fine with sacrificing good plots and smut for boring, unoriginal ideas of 'X thrusts into Y' or some form of that idea. Realism takes a backseat, and I think that with such of diverse cast of characters on the show, they would be able to find

I might actually write a story here · 1:17am Dec 24th, 2018

I came up with an idea I've never seen around here before. Problem is, not only does it center on an OC, it also involves one of my least-favorite characters in the series. Of course, one of the points of the story will be to give that maligned character some hidden depths, and also to have the OC be original, and not just a bland author stand-in. So, who wants details? (And no, it has nothing to do with the content of my last blog post...)

The Plot - Warning Some Indirect Spoilers · 1:09pm Jul 10th, 2016

Recently there's been a lot of comments telling me that it is getting hard for readers to keep track of what is going on. Readers have a fair point when they say: "This is rapidly becoming a mish mash of plots, I don't get what's going on". If you don't want to read huge descriptions about character motivations and thematic choices, please skip this post. If you're interested, please read on.
