So just under a week and a half ago, I decided to get back on the wagon and begin intermittent fasting again.

I woke up today, and felt absolutely awesome when I had my first weigh-in since starting, and I'm down six pounds.

Then, I got called into work for an extra six hours on my next check.

So all in all, it's been a really freaking good day.

Just finished with meal prep for the rest of the week. Because what's better than frozen TV dinners?

With the Barcast ending, it's a final hurrah for the last bastions of interviewing writers on the site. It's sad to see that side of the community falter, but all good things come to an end eventually, even if you don't want them to. I'm happy that I was one of the final interviewed writers for their podcast. The experience was awesome, and I am so happy I got to experience it as an author, not as a viewer.

M235. The old fic from 2013. It's finally back, it's finally being told. The original (non Fimfetch version) that everyone read before. Except, with a few twists and turns that had caused me to fumble the bag.

Out soon™

New non-Anon HiE just dropped, and it's with a guy named Brick. He's found by Rainbow Dash, who is not happy to see him. Hopefully she doesn't die for saying Eric's name.

She totally has this under control!

I’m back and writing(for a few weeks)
Can anyone posting to my stories add constructive criticism please?

I need to know how to improve- if you don’t, my writing will get worse.

We must support each other in helping fellow writers improve.

I’ll be stopping writing from the 10th May-24th June due to exams. Hopefully that window will give me the opportunity to improve my creative writing skills.

Like the title says.

FanOfMostEverything hosted another contest and since the theme was somewhat relatable to the last one, the story I wrote for it is a sequel to the misadventures of our favorite S.M.I.L.E. agents. This time the contest theme was different versions of the same character meeting, so you can all guess where this is going. If not, the sequel is titled How To Train Your Evil Doppelganger.

Blog Post's Rating: T for Teen

In the official fimfiction.net discord, I saw an interesting question in #site-dev-and-help.

"Recon" asked:

If I have a long story (over 100k words) that is rated T and I have a small portion late in the story where some very M rated events take place, what's the best way to handle that?

Through a combination of getting really sick of seeing people butcher Luna's archaic speech in their fics and happening to be studying the subject at the time, a few months ago I decided to make a simple guide to writing Luna dialogue correctly. I put it off way too long, and I'm not even sure it's relevant anymore, since Luna's rehabilitation has kinda passed as a fad in the fimfiction community, but here it is anyway:

Note: I'm cross-posting this from my blog. You may want to read it there since WordPress allows me to use fancier markup like proper section headers, definition lists, and tables.

Not a Brit, but I always found the idea of Bonfire Nite interesting, so I like to at least acknowledge it on the day of.

Anyway, not too much to really report on my end. Writing has become a bit staggered lately (due to lack of motivation as a result of recent reader turnout), but I am going to try to get SOMETHING more substantial done by the end of the year. Maybe I'll actually start the "Elements" sequel? I dunno, really...

Another new year is here. That means lots of new beginnings, looking forward, etc. All those platitudes and cliches we've come to know and possibly tolerate. But just as important as looking to the future, perhaps even more important, is examining the past. Learning from our mistakes and critiquing our own work is crucial if we want to grow as writers (and as people).

Yeah, it's another one of those weekends where I'm moving Stalk Me While I Write to Saturday instead of Sunday. This Sunday is the Gallifrey One staff meeting (not the earlier week, like I'd thought), so Tale Weaver and I are making an appearance to meet our new ConOps master boss.

IN WHICH I UNINTENTIONALLY LIED
So, I said my next blogpost would be Author's Notes for my latest Sunset story. That's obviously not the case, and I'm sorry. However, I am working on the story right now. I'm not pleased with its flow currently and may need help. Still, I feel y'all deserve an update even if I'm failing. Follow me past the jump.

Welcome back readers! Yes, I decided to bump Monday’s usual Being a Better Writer post to Tuesday on account of Monday being the federal holiday in a number of places, including where I was. That, and it was a bit nice to have a break day.
