POSSIBLE SCHEDULE CHANGE

Wow! So, I had planned to release about nine chapters for the first day. Pretty big already, right? But with everything I worked on...I could easily make fifteen chapters. Luckily, I did plan to cut stuff cause there's a lot of the same conversations from different point of views. However, even with the cuts, there's twelve chapters. I might do some more cuts here and there, but I don't want to make any chapter too short. The shortest chapter right now is chapter twelve since it's a

WHOOPS I totally didn't make a blog post last week, and I totally meant to.

Things are starting to kick into high gear now, aren't they? I know chapter 4 was shorter than normal, and chapter 5 was a bit longer, so hopefully the length disparity wasn't too jarring for anyone. Honestly when I went back to re-read chapter 4 before publishing it, I was a little surprised at just how short it was.

Hello, everypony! I hope you all enjoyed this breather chapter. It sure has been a wild ride for Twilight since the beginning, hasn't it? Going this way and that way, all over Equestria and back again. In my opinion, it's tricky to make research "interesting," and portions of this chapter mimic earlier chapters like chapter 3. Twilight is "in her element" when muzzle deep in a book, but having her spend 6 hours researching can get boring pretty quickly! Not just for the reader, but even as a

Hey guys!

Sorry for the long silence, my life has been filled with looking for a new job, so things have been rather hectic these past few weeks. But don't worry, everything is fine. Like every responsible adult, I have prepared for such a scenario, so I can at least live comfortably the rest of the year without things getting hectic. Although I still want a job before then.

ANYWAY!

Hello Fimfiction!

As some of you may recall, around December last year I put up a rough poll regarding story ideas. I am a bit ashamed it took me almost a year to write even one of the story ideas, but I found myself in a bit of a drought part way through the year. Sometimes it was simply a lack of free time, sometimes it was a lack of creativity.

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Chapter 24 was a prolonged fight with rewrite after rewrite. I had to retool the same 3K-ish word scene three times, toning it down each time since Fleur was getting a little too wild for my tastes. Spent a lot of time looking away from the words over the past two weeks to detach myself from them adequately to take a chainsaw to them as needed. There were a lot of words left on the floor afterwards.

Heyo guys!

Just thought I would drop you all a small update so you can follow along. The next chapter of High Score has been written, but it has also been delayed a little. As some of you might know, a new star wars game was released last Friday, and so I had a group of friends over the weekend to play it. Yes, nerd weekend.

It's been fun but I'm afraid I'll have to stop writing. It's honestly too taxing to my mind. I'm not creative. Not at all. So I guess this is it. I deleted my first story and am deleting my second one next Monday. So... Yeah, that's it.

Edit: I have decided not to take down the second story. The first one is gone forever though. R.I.P

So! My good pal Robipony just released his new Grimdark comedy The Smiling Stallion. The writing and editing for it are still going on, but the first two chapters have been released, both of which I've edited. Of course, you ought to read it because it's enjoyable, not just because I worked on it. Check it out! (Not linked because it's rated mature for lovely, wonderful gore and violence.) Even if you don't like gore so much, you may find it really entertaining. I'm not a gore

As you may have noticed, Stick to What Works was posted on Equestria Daily! Thanks to Masked Ferret and Pascoite for helping out.

In addition, for those who read prior to the posting, the story has gone through some revisions to clean some lines up and make some of Maud's metaphors make more sense.

Thanks again for reading!

It's been a little while since Ghost Lights was completed and I took some time off from writing while I was figuring out what story I wanted to do next. Not too long ago, though, inspiration came to me, and I've completed the first draft of a one-shot of about 6.3k words (right now) featuring Twilight and Luna in some very heavy philosophical territory over afternoon tea, which is always interesting. I thought so, anyway.

Halfway through the winter semester, and I'm already seeing leaps and bounds in my understanding of the English language, thanks to university-level editing courses. Seeing the problems everyone has (and I had, for a long time) with grammar and punctuation and the like, I figured I would make a series of blog posts to finally make these concepts clear for the average Pony Joe Blow fanfic writer/editor/reader.

So let's try it, shall we?

Part 1: You Are Here!

Man, it's been way too long since I wrote one of these things. The past few months have been busy as all hell for me. School, work, writing, WriteOffs, moving, trying to make money... blughuguuhuufguuuggh. Lots of stuff going on.

In this blog: Something Like Laughter gets into the Royal Canterlot Library! A roundup of current and future writing projects! And Bronycon plans!

In case some of you didn't notice, last night, posted a new chapter, which I proofread, to Applejack's Stetson Hat. I suggest you check it out. It seems like quite a story, although I've only gotten to read the chapter I proofread for.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of you started to wonder whether I’ve given up on Fecundity. The last time I said anything about it was last year when I said I wanted to go back and do edits, but I haven’t really given any progress updates. I’d originally I anticipated this process to take about a month, but like most of my writing project plans, that wound up being way, wayyyyyyyy off the mark.

TL;DR I'm officially opening up for both editing-for-hire and also story commissions. See below for details.

Good evening everyone, as you might have noticed I’ve taken down the story “Their most faithful Student” (or if I have not I will do so soon). This is because I am personally not happy with it after reading it back when I started work on it again so instead of continuing where I left off I am going to redo the entire thing starting with chapter 0, taking into account the feedback I have been given of course.
