So, I've had this concept reflecting around in my head for a while, though I'm not sure if it would bring an amusing bit of closure to people or just come off as a tad mean-spirited. Basically, I've been thinking of planning a sort of mass eulogy for the best fanfics posted to the site that never got finished, either by myself or with help from other interested parties (probably the latter, if I can gather interest). Because, well, there are a bunch of excellent works that authors just couldn't

Hey guys, I know I don't really do much here unlike other sites, but I decided it wouldn't be fair if I didn't tell you guys why I suddenly will disappear. I've been going through some feelings that I don't quite understand, or why I'm feeling them. So I've decided to take a break from everything until I figure out the problem and fix it. This could take days, weeks, or even months. So this is goodbye for now...

Holy fudge.

I turned 15 today. 15!!! How old is that? I've been on this site for almost 2 years. That's... incredible. I like to think I've come a really long way. Whoever was here for the very first story; yeah, it wasn't great.

1200 ish words.

Rainbow's going to take a backseat in this chapter.

But Twilight and Rarity are back. (I'm not going to have four more ponies to juggle in this story- though storywise Applejack has a reason to be out and somepony has to keep a mentoring eye on Scootaloo. And having Twilight away from Pinkie for a few days ties into a plot point I've set up.

So, some things I want to move off my chest. First off, I had a funny feeling to post today. Even if I hesitated posting, I feel that right now would be the right time to do so.

So, here's a disclaimer: Since my writing style has changed drastically over the past few months, no matter how hard I try, I can't line it up with the writing style I had back when. But, who knows? This change might be good. I'll never know 'til I try.

Have most of the rest of my work week off once Saturday is fini- so that means I will have multiple days to most likely finish (or get close enough so that I would be able to finish when I'm off of work the next week) Wanted to keep this this monthly due to it being very helpful on organizing my free time around but sometimes that's difficult. To make up for that, I seem to write longer chapters.

I mean first, there is there is this one guy I got nothing against them but my god these types of blog posts are really getting on my nerves. They have made what 6 or 7 of these godaym posts.

Like if your gonna leave just go. This is godamn fimfiction, a website about gaddaym pony fanfiction! And every time I see one of these posts I get desensitized to it. I have seriously began to see these things as someone fishing for pity.

It's been a while, but I'm finally going to be posting stories again!

Hello, Zephyr Spark here. I'm still alive and writing in case you're wondering. I have roughly nine chapters of my newest story "Scaled Heights" written. Right now, I'm just going through some edits of the first three chapters which I intend to post sometime soon. The story has been edited by "The Fan Without a Face" and stars Spike.

So, I've uploaded the next chapter -"Once Upon a Midnight Dreary"- and I have to say, it's a bit of a dozy. A bit longer than most of my other chapters, but don't get it wrong. This chapter marks a big change of pace for The Wayfarers. Mainly... because I'm finally adding a bit of pepper to all this salt.

That's right everypony! (And by everypony I mean the one person I know occationally read these. That means you Shootingstar212!) I'm going back into the swedish education system! Wish me luck...

The reason for this is that I'm absolutely fed up with my two idiot bosses. Everypony working there are, so we're doing a walkout type of thing.

I'm going to study computor technologies of several kinds, including programming, webbtech, networking and such marvelous things.

So, it's been long overdue, but I'm taking suggestions for an Interlude Chapter that will cover an area(s), character(s), event, or reaction not previously covered in prior chapters. The last suggestion accepted was the pony's reactions to the human's music after their welcome party.

Suggestions will be open for consideration for the next 7 days, ending on 03 September 2020 at 2 PM Eastern Time.

This might be a long chapter. Edit: And decently long blog post

Current word count- 3,439

Hopefully be out in the next few days, hopefully not a full week from now. That'd be pushing the ten k mark- thousand words plus is an attainable goal though so I plan on keeping that. (I only had a seven thousand word weekend because of general luck.)

Content Advisory: Contains unmarked spoilers for The Ponies in the Caves.

I emerge from my coronavirus bunker to discover half the site on fire and a wolf chasing a drunk Catholic. All we need is Knighty to do another UI update or fully implement Genfic (is that even still a thing?) and the 2020 shitstorm can really get rolling in.

With the holiday season upon us, I have been trying hard to put out the fifth chapter of IDelP as a bit of an early Christmas gift for you all, but with extensive research, big outline rewrite, and IRL things, I haven't been able to make enough headway to provide you that chapter. Unfortunately I'll be off with family for Christmas, and then I'll be in Gibraltar for the New Year's. While I will most likely be online I will not have the working conditions to continue writing, and the fifth

I lied. It’s clickbait. It’s really Fanfiction Reading Update #180. There’s enough political shit and wanting to start civil wars in everyone else’s blog posts. Go read theirs or Knighty’s, which started all this, if you want to dive into what will eat the next six months of this site’s life. I, meanwhile, will talk about horse words one last time before the partisans knock down my front door.

Just a quick announcement that "Reaping Rainbow: A Very Grim Hearth's Warming" will be the next story I give some attention to. The story had a very warm reception and some great enthusiasm, and the only reason I wasn't able to give it some love was because Passing Familiarity was still being finished and needed more of my creative energy. Now that I'm getting back into things, you can look forward to seeing more Pratchett-style hijinks with Rainbow and her buddy Death in the near

Having an issue with Google Drive, which is where I write all my stories. Probably a stupid choice of a writing program but when my only other choice is an automatic word pad that's just not at all pleasing to look at or write on, I'm going with what I've got. Anyway, last night I opened my document, and it was basically uneditable.

EDIT: Sometimes the solution is the simplest thing.

Chapter 16 of Shadow of a Doubt for example:
