NaNo - Challenge Completed! · 11:55pm Nov 16th, 2020

Amidst school and several other challenges, I have completed the challenge of National Novel Writing Month in just 16 days! Over 50,000 words in a brand new novel. I have not decided how the story will end, but the novel is nearing completion. It will take at least one more book to finish the story. I have a lot of school piling up, so we shall see how much further past 50,000 I will get!

A writing update. What They Hope to Find is over 37k words and counting. I had to split the draft into three separate chapters just to make it less ridiculous. Still working on the next installment, though. I had another scene I wanted to add before I do my final editing routine.

Someone's getting a dictionary for Christmas... · 3:57pm Sep 18th, 2015

Quote from a game:

She was described as a free spirit, with a nihilistic love of danger.

Emphasis mine.

I...um...okay then! For some reason, stuff like this really makes me giggle.

Anyone else got any amusing misused words? Or wants to debate whether that's a totally valid use of the word?

Investigating where the term "alicorn" came from. · 6:36am Dec 15th, 2014

What do you call a unicorn with wings? We refer to them as alicorns now, but where did we get that word from anyway? The show staff themselves didn’t know what to call these things, sometimes referring to them as pegacorns.

The Nine Best Pieces of Writing Advice I Didn't Learn in School · 6:39am Sep 17th, 2016

The first thing you write will always be bad
I wish I had a professor or teacher just come out and say it. You can have a twelve step course to teach you how to code in C++, cook up a batch of applesauce, or calculate the optimum trajectory and force to kick someone in the groin. All of that can be repeated with very little margin of error, but that is because those skills are perceived by you and not others. They are based in hard science.

Update · 2:27am Jul 7th, 2017

Been a while since I made one of these. Here's a rundown on what will happen soon:

-Face Off! Chapter 2 will be out within the next 3 days. Sorry I didn't focus on that for a while, but it will be out soon. :)

-I'm taking a week's break from Alive, Not Alive to jot down some more ideas for the storyline(FreeMind is a nice program for story writers to make notes)

-I might be making a romance story between original character and Sunset Shimmer(I sorta teased it in Face Off! Chapter 1)

Fair word of warning · 1:52am Sep 8th, 2020

Friend dropped me a notice about this. Thought I should warn y'all.

"If you use TikTok, Facebook, Youtube or other social media, please be very careful on the app for the next day at the least. Last night a man committed suicide and was recorded live from Facebook before uploaded onto other platforms and is rapidly spreading as these platforms are fighting to contain it, having released statements on the case.

This is just for my ease of access when writing stories. Perhaps, it will be useful for you, as well.

Matthew 19:26 · 1:09am Apr 20th, 2019

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

Matthew 19:26

What this Bible verse especially means is that as long as we worship and trust in God, we can do anything. But, that doesn’t mean we can do anything like fly without jet packs. It means that we can make huge accomplishments, such as build a bridge without giving up and continue going strong, as long as we let God be by our side to help us.

Shepherd: "So... Twilight, I gotta ask: How exactly can we understand eachother?"

Twilight: "What do you mean?"

Shepherd: "I'm literally from another planet. Maybe another universe Yet you also speak English? I mean I know the multiverse is infinite and all but even so, that seems a little... Unlikely. For a certain set of infinity, I mean."

Workin' on Stuff · 3:18am Jan 16th, 2016

Right now, I'm polishing my Hellraiser/MLP crossover fic. I was planning to submit it on Monday, but now I realize Monday is a holiday, so maybe not 'til Tuesday. A bold experiment; so far everything I've written on here that wasn't melodramatic clop has been a flop, but horror is my favorite genre, so hopefully it will go over well.

Honestly even if it flops, I'll probably do more cinematic horror crossovers. They're fun, and I love fun things! :rainbowlaugh:

Fixed a thing · 4:10pm Sep 18th, 2017

I doubt any of you noticed, but the word count on Peephole got changed for some reason. I don't think this happened back in the Fimfiction 4.0 update, but I'm not 100% certain.

Anywho, I got it back to normie, so now I can go write other shit without that bugging me.

Damn... · 12:52am Apr 29th, 2018

So... my computer crashed. I can still do everything off my phone but it takes a bit longer. This is kind of annoying. I'm gonna have to reformat my entire hard drive. This makes things a lot harder. It won't effect my posting chapters because I usually use my phone for typing out chapters when I'm out.
