Guys, please, leave the statue of Lenin in Seattle alone. Destroying and/or removing objects does not solve problems.

Remember, if you really want to help the nation, try destroying and/or removing communists, socialists, leftists, liberals, democrats and others.

Bad Horse's latest article brought up a lot of good points about common unintended themes in genre fiction, and when he got to Horror, the blood drained from my face. Here's what he said:

World of Tanks. Lots and lots of World of Tanks. I'd cry for help if I wasn't so addicted and having so much fun*.

More after the break, if you please.

Here, have a title spoiler, if that can be considered a spoiler.

More Taking the Sun on the way very soon!!

I'm currently working on a new Call of Duty: Equestrian Warfare chapter for Raven that is the story climax and may well be the story ending. The rewrite has been going off and in for well over a year now and it's time to conclude it. Those of you curious to see how pony strength, weather control and magic would do against modern human weapons and how the Mane 6 would react to an invasion of Ponyville by

Hiya Everypony! Battlerares here, with the last little update for the year.

Well folks, brought to you by patron DbzOrDie and myself, it's time for another installment of Taking the Sun. Part three, entitled "Crystal Kin", brings a certain crystal princess into the mix, as a trio of guests (whom you should already know) introduce her to some important revelations about auntie Celestia via a night to remember. Naturally, if

I'm happy tor report that the next chapter should be entering the editing phase soon, much earlier than I expected! I'm considering doing a sorta bloggy thing if people are interested in discussions or Q & A or something like that, I dunno. I'd do one once every chapter to give a status update on the next one and maybe even give a sneak peek of what's to come, like this:

Here's an excerpt of what's to come...

Next time:

Hello Everypony!

Well, I said I'd put out something new today, so here's a short little tale about the internal struggles of a certain cotton candy mare, and the help of a friend who teaches her a new way to look at herself.

My first story on this site written entirely in present tense. Enjoy Luv Yew, Mummy Pingkee Pi.

So, I was kind of aiming for about one chapter a month on Hell of a Time.

That, rather obviously, did not happen.

Final count, before editing and counting author's notes: 17585 words, 48 pages.

And it only took me one year, half a million words slash about a thousand pages in scrapped outlines, and most of my remaining sanity!

Hopefully the thing should go live later the coming week, depending on how the editing goes. Been a while, but hopefully they'll all still be available slash still interested.

Sorry for the long wait and delays.

And a special thanks and sorry to my editors for the glacial response times. The chapter wouldn't have been half as good without you guys, and I'm sorry I've been so busy lately.

Now I only need to try not gnawing my nails to the bone on the wait to the responses to the first update in over a year.

Hey everypony, and welcome to the best month of the year!

It's about time for another update to start off our spooky month; sadly, life has really gotten in the way of writing since I last posted a blog. Save for Stalled Out's most recent part, I haven't finished anything I'd deem fitting to publish. Lots of things happened and are continuing to occur IRL that sap my time, ability, and drive to write. I don't normally talk about my personal life here much, but I'll share the short version:

Anyone still here?

To say the last couple of months have been busy is an understatement and a half. Between school and work, I've been basically going 16 hours a day every day with very few breaks. And I still haven't had enough time to do everything better than half-assed. Ain't it a bitch when you're overextending yourself and it's still not enough?

So... apparently my submission for Art for Fanfiction's 2019 Summer Writing Contest won second place.

This is very, very strange. My writing is honestly not that good! Why do people like it so much?!

This is very weird, yet flattering.

I'm still completely and utterly exhausted, so I'm going to keep this blog on the shorter, sloppier side of things, but I just wanted to let everyone know that I've made it back home safe and sound!

This has been yet another productive month for me. I'm excited to dig into the details to see how far I've come.
