Saturday ended with 9,138 words in The bag, only 2,528 words under par! Believe it or not, that is quite the achievement given the week I had. It turns out that between work, volunteering, and getting ready for a trip, it all rolled out to about two hours a day to write.

Sometimes less. For instance, while Saturday was a very good day at about 2,500 words, Friday was... not. 21 words? It's a little embarrassing.

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?

I'm sure you've been there, too: You're writing something, and you keep spending time on it, and every time you stop and check your wordcount, it hasn't changed much. Or, you spend most of your time working on the story by not working on it, instead sitting there and brainstorming and/or cursing various aspects of the story and/or yourself for just not getting it bloody written.

(I like to picture that scene as either me transforming the characters from things I loathe to things I can remotely tolerate... or myself using the machine to enforce brainwaves to keep to the way I think)

I waffled on whether or not to post this blog because after I finished it, as I felt like it had served its purpose as the only form of journaling that I’ve enjoyed. Plus, it’s like therapy for me. Then, as I was perusing YouTube, I came across a video.

It's been almost two months..... I'm very overdue for this. Yes, I am still alive.

I want to apologize for not writing anything for so long, especially to those few who wait for updates of "The Strange Case of Dinky Hooves' Cutie Mark Curiosity". At the beginning of August, I got thrown into a deep depression and found myself unable to do any kind of writing.

It's been a while since I've written one of these, but I've been hanging around in FimFiction's Discord's Writing Help chats, and one of the most common things I've been seeing is difficulty with character voicing. Character voicing is hard. It's what's important to making characters stand out from each other. So I thought I'd write a little blog about some of my thoughts on Word Choice in relation to a character's voice.

You have to improve yourself. Apologize for everything bad you've done. get over all the shippings that never happened and improve your attitude AND THEN people will stop making fun of you, and the characters will be seen better

Let me just... clarify a few things here.

1: I don't really believe in apology.

Hi All,

If anyone is interested, I found a Macro that produces a list of all the words used in a document and the number of times it is used.

Very useful for finding crutch words and phrases which are overused

For example the list for Why Sassy Saddles is below.
Some interesting words to note:

• There are 5978 unique words.
• 'Pussy' is said 102 times.
• 'Felt' is said 233 times.
• 'Sensitive' is said 62 times.

Word Frequency:

3256 the

Creating a ‘good’ character is an evergreen topic in many groups on this site, so I thought it might be worth a shot to dedicate another miniguide to it. Here I’ll focus primarily on some aspects of a character’s role in a story and the ways in which these aspects affect character creation. The guide might be also a bit messier than usual as putting together these various tidbits of advice would require a far longer text to be somewhat coherently connected.

My first video is up on my channel and this time it's actually my video.
It helps a lot when you watch it and like it on Youtube so even when I put it here please don't forget to like it on Youtube.

The video is better than reading it in my opinion.

If for whatever reason you're reading this before reading the first fourteen(!) parts of this blog series, then you might want to go back and start from the beginning. Though, for your own sake, you might be better off leaving well alone.

It's done, folks! All fourteen chapters of One Extraordinary Time have been read, documented, and thoroughly despised.
