Geez I could take a note or two from this game. Multiple room selection from one housing space... why didn't I think of that?
Also I might actually buy this game when it comes over to the rest of the world.

Does this look familiar? Can anyone name what this is without looking at the image file name? :P
Since I'm going to be needing these songs for a writing session myself, I just thought I'd share these tonight. They're all instrumental. Some acoustic guitar, a cinematic song prominently featuring a music box, and a Nirvana cover with xylophones. Yes, really.
Hope you liked 'em!
Sorry, no bad news this time, so uh... Yay? (Well, aside from the arguing over Net Neutrality, but let's face it, you've probably had about enough of people talking about it for the time being, so I won't go into it.)
Anyways, Black Friday...
(Probably the average Black Friday at Toys-R-Us or Best Buy, let's be honest.)
My advice, wear hockey gear if you're willing to brave the stores.
So, years ago there was an author on this site who went by the name RealityCheck. He's since left this site for another site due to disagreements with the mods here, but he was also a frequent blogger. One time, he used this blog to introduce a story idea that he didn't have time to write himself for whoever wanted to use it: an alternate universe where Celestia gave the Elements of Harmony to new ponies after Nightmare
Hello there. Welcome to the first of a new series of posts I'll be doing. Nothing complicated here. Just sharing some of the music I typically listen to whilst writing. Titles will usually reflect what they might be good for inspiring. Most songs will be without lyrics, but if they have lyrics I'll say so. If you can't write while hearing someone sing/rap, you might consider just focusing on the song and visualizing story ideas instead of actively writing. That's one thing I do when I'm hurting
As I was sitting down, feeling that peculiar feeling of idleness after ending one of my video-game streams, I went to browse through some of my favorite music-videos of my favorite shows / online series. Might I just say that music is an amazing thing? It can make you feel happy, sad, excited, dull, murderous and divine all at the same time.
Inspiration is great. It drives my stories to no end, and in truth, is the reason why it may take some of my stories so long to complete or update. My greatest inspiration comes from music. Instrumental or non-lyrical music is such a complex story-teller, because what you think about while it plays differs from time-to-time. I have listened to the nastiest, most gangster-corrupted rap, and have thought up the sweetest romantic stories. I have listened to chill, relaxing dubstep, and have
Going global with some contemporary piano from Italy, and modern folk music from Europe tonight. Everything is instrumental. Last one is good for cultural-based settings (i.e. an MLP fanfic set in Neighpon) or medieval fantasy writing. Enjoy!
Octavia’s Story Making-Of
I originally intended to make this a complete bare-bone story. As in, no outline, no character sketches or location analyses. I wanted to write without preparing anything. But, being the I-hate-editing-so-I-outline-every-single-thing kind of writer that I am, I wrote two quick pages of potential making-of material anyway. Sorry, I couldn’t help myself! But then again, now you have some interesting behind-the-scenes material to read.
How did your previous scavenger hunt for the audio of my song go? Well, today we have another one. Just click here:
, and you’ll find it.
Just like before, I’m posting the lyrics to the song here:
I was thinking of releasing the Prologue of 'The Ending Race'. Reason being is so you all get the feel of the story, and stay with me until it is completed! I am honestly not sure how many chapters the story will have.
The story was going to be a normal fanfic to steady myself but when I got the dream, I literally flipped the table.
Restarted,
Rewrote,
Continuing.
Since I’m not entirely sure if I’ll be allowed to post EVERY chapter on here, at least you guys can check out the rest of the finished chapters on Quotev. I’ve had a profile there for years but… I sort of abandoned it after 2016 or so. But, now I’m back and I hope to reignite my page and have folks check out my original content.
Hiya, lovely peeps!
Holy stars. Wow, just wow.
When I posted the story yesterday, I wasnʼt expecting much. It did gain a lot more views than I was expecting (200 in less than 12 hours), but it was a little slow on the upvotes (a mere 7 in 12 hours). I told myself, “Okay. No biggie.”
And then I woke up this morning.

Hey y'all. Seems I missed a couple months, it's been... Hard. Figured I'd give a little update.
Oceans away from the coasts of Equestria lied a desolate land of sand and sun, where nothing stood except for a gleaming bronze tower of cogs and gears. It was an imposing landmark, casting a long shadow over the sands while its tangerine armor glistens under Celestia's light. Nothing much was known about this peculiar tower, which made the trip all more exciting for the world renowned Daring Do.
For a long time now I've been fighting with one problem. This problem affects all artists at some point, and, to a lesser degree, everyone else. Getting started.
Being lazy sucks. You never feel like doing anything and then later you feel like crap because you haven't done anything. I'm there all the time. I hate the solution because it's so simple and yet, even for as simple as it is, I refuse to acknowledge it or do anything about it.
For when you're trying to get in touch with your inner badass. Everything's instrumental. Enjoy.
The Thug Life Chose Me
"Everybody oppressed by the DL, LISTEN THE FUCK UP!!!" Rainbow-Dash yelled in the front of the auditorium. All eyes went to the leader of the RB.
"You all always complain about the DL's evil... How they done you wrong 'n shit... How they scamming you, killing you, finessin' you... But what do you do? NOTHING!" RD preached.
"What's your life about? Enlighten me." RD asked rhetorically.
