So I've gotten about ten hours of sleep in the last three days. I would give you an daily amount of hours but I'm to tired to do the mental math. I'm exhausted, from mid terms and I have a pretty big essay due in less than a week that I haven't bothered to start on. And I have about a million other things I could probably bitch about endlessly, but am too tired and lazy to do so. I'll probably be on for maybe another hour or so if anyone wants to talk. Warning: I'm tired and pissed, so if you

Ok, I made a decent comedy story. If you wouldn't mind, can you guys go check it out? It's less than 2000 words and had up to 8 live readers at one time. I'm hoping to get in the feature box, but now there's only one live reader (me...). If you wouldn't mind, could you? Not trying to be greedy... But it'd really make my day.

How have y'all been? Anything new happen while I was...well...away? Well, anyway~ I have a lot of info to give you.

1. My writing skills have stepped up immensely since the last time I updated Shiny's Secret.
2. I've spent a lot of time on other stories on Fanfiction . n e t, so most of my time has been spent getting back into the swing of things.
3. I've graduated high school and am now in the United States Navy! :D

For those of you who've been patiently waiting for the next arc of Rhythm of the Heat, I have some good news and bad news.

The bad news is that RotH as is died as of the end of Act I - big surprise, eh?

Almost a goddamn decade as a matter of fact.

But anyway, a short summary:

• I fell away from the FIM fandom around the end of season two. Just, life getting in the way as it tends to do.

Okay, so this is basically just going to be me ranting here. Just a fair warning. Also a little NSFW.

Okay, so a few of you may know that there was a classic cartoon x MLP crossover contest going on. I don’t know if it’s over, but I do know that it has happened. I know someone who entered it, and I glanced through the ruleset. It seems like an interesting concept, one that has interestingly not been tried much, and I think it’d be fun to participate in.

I didn’t write for it.

So, I know I said I'd come around to update every day, but right now, I'm feeling moot.

I had a cup of coffee, and a notebook where I keep basic plot ideas in, all ready to go, and threw up FiMfiction to check what's been going on before I start writing, and then I saw the Renaissance Contest blog post, where we're supposed to write about a coming-of-age fic where we connect the time after FiM to the new Gen 5 coming in September.

You know, a show like Friendship is Magic isn't the sort of thing I usually go for. I don't watch cartoons very much in general, and even when I do, it's usually something like King of the Hill. The pony show is colorful, sometimes childish, family friendly, girly, and very often just feels lighter and softer. I've always been into gritty science fiction, cyberpunk. dieselpunk... I've never cared much for fantasy stories or stuff about magic, or even for superheroes all that much. But... but

Over and over again, I've been snapped at for asking for help or a simple question. It feels unfairly isolating and makes me feel like I wasn't meant to be heard. Sometimes, I don't know why I even bother anymore.

Hahahahahahaha

You realize what you've been doing and say "Ah, fuck it!" This does relate to my stories, but probably not the way you think. Don't worry though, it gets better.

As always, Skirts proves himself to be dapper beyond measure.

Story is NSFW and Not Safe For Anyone. 11/10

Hello again. In the background I’ve been helping KK Slider, the author of Changing Expectations, his newest work: The CE Side Stories!

If you haven’t read Changing Expectations yet, by some god forsaken miracle, go do that now, you won’t regret it, it’s got thousands of likes for a reason.

that I say absolutely horrible things when I'm editing images.
Actual things I've caught myself saying.
"Just gotta cut off Appljack's head here."
"Once I get rid of Apple Bloom I can finish off Sweetie Belle, but I'll keep Scootaloo for scale."
"It would just be easier to cover them up and forget about it."
"Just gotta kick Granny Smith outta that window."
"I wonder if I can use that leg to make a decent neck."
