Being a Better Writer: Sentence Construction and "Run-ons" · 9:13pm May 2nd, 2016

Sentence construction is one of those touchy things with a lot of novice writers. Personally, I blame the education system for not doing an adequate job explaining things, but the truth of the matter is that there are a lot of young writers out there (or worse, novice critics) who pass judgement on their own or others work without knowing much about what they’re actually passing judgement on. In the best case scenario, this leads to confusing feedback. In the worst-case scenario? Bad

Being a Better Writer: On Writing About Race · 10:40pm Apr 18th, 2016

Oh boy.

Yep, this post had to come at some point or another. Given the charged climate of “PC” these days (that’s “political correctness,” not “Personal Computer,” sadly) days, this topic is one that’s come up again and again in writing. Online, offline … just about everywhere.

Well... I'm apparently here · 5:04am Nov 2nd, 2015

Hello, I am earthboundfolk. Bisexual male. Caucasian. Really, that doesn't matter, unless I'm discussing my personal fetish folder. (Hopefully that won't ever come up...) Anyways, though, I've been meaning to start writing some fanfics. At first, this account was so I could favorite great clop. Then, I began commenting. And now... a blog.

Mane Characters And OCs · 8:52am Sep 22nd, 2015

Sorry to ask people, but if you've got the time and if anyone bothers to read these, could I get a brief opinion on one thing.

Been planning to get back into writing stories for the website, just a couple more funny one shot tales and a rather lengthy one. The more pressing of them involves the use of Rainbow Dash, albeit briefly, and fitting it around an event the series introduced. It's only a small bit but I wanted to ask better writers, well, if this is a good idea?

Orwell's 6 Rules for Writing · 10:46pm Mar 6th, 2017

1. Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.
3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.
5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.
6. Break any of these rules sooner than say anything barbarous.

Operation Recovery · 9:57pm Jun 23rd, 2017

This week has been messy. Even a minor operation does have a decent bit of recovery time it seems. Writing has been very slow this week because of this, though next week I should be fine.

There are still new Stories up on my Furaffiniy And Eka's Portal accounts, go on a trip to find them~.

And hopefully you are having a nicer week than me, Happy Filthy Friday all cute readers~.

This week's Thursday upload will be either a Friday or Saturday upload · 4:03am Jul 16th, 2020

As indicative by my late at night blog post and lack of new chapter for It Takes A Princess, the current chapter just plain isn't coming together and needs more work. This probably goes without saying at this point, but I'd rather submit no upload than a mediocre one.

Rest assured that this fic will be done before the August 1st contest deadline. I'm determined to not fall completely off the wagon.

I'm new here! Saying hello. · 11:37pm Dec 20th, 2020

Hi there, FimFiction community! I am Pokemon Duelist CJ. I am new to the MLP fiction fanbase and would like to try out writing a fan fiction starring some of my friends from Digigex90's Discord server about the famous tcg known as Yu-Gi-Oh. I have an idea about what I want to write in my story, but I will let my friends have their say as to how the story will go in their words. Right now I dont have a computer to type out the ideas since this is coming from my smartphone so until then, I will

Disheartening Delays. · 11:56am Nov 30th, 2021

G'day all.
You know those days when you finally broke out of your Writer's block and you spent a weeks worth of effort to squeeze every bit of creative juices you managed to pull off from said writer's block; only to accidentally delete all your efforts when your mouse conveniently falls on the floor and conveniently click the delete button as it fell? Welp, here we are now and I am mad as Hell! I almost finished the damn chapter and this happens.
