You know my problem with Ember? · 3:48am Apr 20th, 2016
My problem is this...
Alright the new chapter is coming along, but it introduces something important, the fact there are two factions so far. Equestria's and Equestria's enemies. Every character falls into one of these categories, some are from a present nation that is against Equestria, others from past enemies and some from future enemies. That said before I accept characters, I need to know several things.
Name
Age
Sex
Species
Cutie Mark (If applicable)
Okay then, its been a long time, but I've finally begun to take my first steps towards becoming a full time writer. Well, okay, I guess all the writing I've done over the years were, technically, the first steps. But thanks to a really good opportunity, I've finally found myself with the chance to dedicate myself fully to writing, as more than just a fun hobby but as a actual job. It's a huge risk, and I don't know if I'll be able to make it yet. But I know if I don't try it now, I may never
Welcome back readers! I hope you’re doing better this Monday than I am. As I am still sick. On the mend, thankfully, and I’ll be picking up some Nyquil today to at last give this cough the boot, but it’s been tenacious in hanging on.
Enough procrastination! I may have gotten my computer taken from me, but I still have my phone.
I'm gonna download Google docs, cause that's where the story is and that's where I write it, and I'm gonna actually write it instead of just saying I will.
Expect the new chapter to be out within... A month at the longest. I'm also experiencing writers block, but I'll try to work past that.
Okay so since Sunspot is going slow right now with the plague known as writer's block another Idea came to me on the same way home where I came up with the idea for My Little Sunspot.
This is the Cover-art I got for it right now
I want to get at least a few chapters finished before I submit it. Hope ya boys will like it.
A few updates for everyone:
Chapter 12: Red Moon just went live. This is the fastest turnaround that I've ever done, but I think it helps that the chapter was not as narratively dense as some of the other ones in Equestrian Horizon. It's mostly straight action and not a lot of layers to peel back.
I have absolutely no idea what I want to work on. I have a couple ideas like ABFOT or my crossover fic, but right now I have no desire to write those at the moment. So I'm going to be taking some time to think about what I'm going to do. Heck, maybe I'll release an entire story with ten chapters! More or less, I don't know.
Sorry if this is a little bit disappointing, but turst me, this is for the best.
IN WHICH TIME IS WASTED?
Yes, this is my second blogpost today (even though I did the first one before going to sleep, the calendar doesn't lie). I generally dislike making multiple posts on the same date, but sometimes it just works out that way.
My unceremonious return is heralded by the call of a Science Fiction contest! I thought it'd be fun to participate, so I'm here polishing up the last few chapters of my new 6 Chapter fic Victory: Premonitions, in the hope of bringing my rusty skills up to snuff for some much bigger projects yet to be released! It's been a bit harder than I anticipated, as the super-condensed nature of a 20 thousand word fic has proven to be quite the creative restriction, but I've really been liking the
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I HAVE RETURNED WITH A NEW CHAPTER TO UNCOVERING!
Finally, after over a year of silence, I am back to give life to my dying fanfiction!
As a gift for y'all, here's an updated cover for the story:
NOW, GO AND GIVE THE CHAPTER A READ!
I'm excited to be making progress on actually posting this thing. This whole project has been very exciting. I'm not sure if the Mature rating will stick. I've always had a bad relationship with these online self-rating systems. I'd much prefer an "in progress" rating that was the functional equivalent of shrugging your shoulders and seeing where things go. As it stands, part of me wants to tone down the later chapters and re-concept the scope into something with less adult themes. I'm not
Need something to kick my butt into gear, and I figure this is the best way to hold myself accountable.
Doing this as commissions and not requests because I was recently hit with a pretty big bill - not enough for me to worry about getting thrown out of my apartment or anything, but enough to make my savings wince. Also, if I do this for money, I'll be more likely to hold myself accountable for getting a product finished.
Like... I'm gonna try. Really try. Not to ruin everything.
No promises.

Chapter 3 of Victory: Premonitions is out! So far I've stuck to an every-other-day cadence with these releases that I really like. This chapter saw a lot of special attention in the editing process to correct for run-ons. This was the result of some specific feedback I got from the first two chapters. I may still go back and make edits to Chapters 1 & 2 to correct for this before posting Chapter 4. Behind the scenes, I completed work on Chapter 6 and have everything through to the
It's been a while since I posted anything. I've mostly been haunting the forums and such. However, recently I had a strange burst of writing inspiration, and started work on a One-Shot, that is fully storyboarded and I've already started to write it.
However, I just can't bring myself to finish The 1,000th Sun. I don't know why, but I can't. So I've officially canceled it. I did, however write a short explanation of how it should have ended, and released a half-baked cancelled chapter.
Hello readers, and welcome back to another post of Being a Better Writer, coming to you bright and early this Tuesday morning.
Yeah, Tuesday. Mondays shifts at my part-time job again. Just a fair heads-up, I’ve got a Monday shift next week too, so next week’s BaBW post will also be delayed. It happens. And I need the money, so …
5 steps away, I didn't give the time of day.
4 steps away, I had nothing to say.
3 steps away, I attempted to delay.
4 steps past... I hadn't expected it would move so fast.
Happy Clean Friday~.
There once, was a creature, from the wilds,
Its apperance, it used, to beguile,
but with claws like knives, and a breath so vile,
its reception, was cheritably, quite mild.
So it found new ways of entry,
Its apperance, quite elementary,
For isn't it so, a single thought is quite strong,
and can dig deep into your memory.
Happy Filthy Friday~.
