Huh... I just realized I'm a huge dick. I'm cool with it, I'm not gonna be emo about it and hate myself because I'm a dick, but damn...
I learned about how much of a dick I am because of a simple comment. Mind you, the story I'm about to share isn't my work. It belongs to:
CandyKittenXx
Ever wondered what it's like to wake up weighing an extra 600 pounds?
Hey folks,
Been a little while since I posted a new story to the site. Life got busy around the New Year, and I didn't have as much time to spend on my favorite hobby as usual.
Yep, the leaks were true.
Chapter 15 of Infinite Potential iiiisss... DONE! Yep, it's done and already being looked over by my proofreading/editing team. So, you know, you can send your death threats to them instead now
Literally the very first scene, Loon and Celly fight a giant mountain turtle
Literally my reaction as I watched:
"Oh, giant mountain turtle? I wrote about that before, though celly and loon were fighting it, not the mane si-"
Celly and Loon show up
"HOLD UP A SECOND WHAT THE FU-"
I mean It's not 1:1 the same as the fanfic obviously but oh my god that was ridiculously hilarious on my part
It's not much, but I'm teaching myself how to animate (more) in Blender since I only know Autodesk Maya well enough to do much.
And guess what? Once my student license is up, I can't use Maya anymore without shelling out a heap of money that I don't have. So I figure I'd might as well learn some alternative software.
I do like Blender quite a bit, anyways. It's not quite as big as Maya as far as use in the production industry, but it's enough for my personal purposes.
Chapter 18 is done.
So, I’m back with these blog posts, not only out of a presumed obligation (don’t worry, I’d stop if I hated doing this), but also because I really like talking about my influences. This is mainly because Amethyst has an origin story that I love, which eventually disappointed me because I couldn’t replicate that feeling.
But let’s start earlier, shall we?
you read that right.
pics tomorrow.
maybe e🅱ic gamer time.
but midterms first.
because of course I have midterms next week.
I have awoken from my slumber to give a little bit of an update and a ‘where I am’ thing.
But first, have a couple fantastic things I’ve found over my unannounced break.
A Story in Leaves by my good friend TurquoiseEmber on the Author’s Academy Wiki
Chuggaaconroy’s most recent Xenoblade Chronicles 2 episode, particularly the timestamp 22:40 (major spoilers for XC2, obviously)
WARNING SUB-POLITICAL RANT INBOUND
I want to preface this by saying I'm not against those that voted for our new president and I support all thoughts/concerns/comments openly without hate.
So. It’s been almost a week since BC. I know most folks have already done followups. You’re probably tired to death of them. Hey, that’s fine. But, I gotta give my shoutouts to the people who deserve them. That being said… it’s been a hell of a week. So much personal stuff has happened that I’m sure there are things that just slipped through the cracks, so if I forget something, please forgive me.
So Oroboro has been doing a Sunset Shipping Contest, which I assume everyone is aware of given that this fucker's got like 40 submissions.
In 5 or so years of writing, Sugar and Spice is both the longest and probably the best story I've managed to finish so far. If nothing else, it's absolutely a story that has the most things I like about it, which is particularly weird given that it's just... not the sort of story I tend to write. Side-character, non-Princess romance? OCs? Comedy?!
I know. I must have fallen ill, or something.
If you want some lighthearted wackiness, I'd really suggest checking out the story below. It's the first full-length story that someone has written based on a story I wrote! The story that inspired this one is Scrambled Serenity which is why I've tagged it after so long. For folks who want to re-read Scrambled Serenity and its canonical sequel, I have revised and cleaned up both. You'll be able to get those in printed form one day. The fan-story is a multi-chapter, so be sure to
Newest chapter (173) of Rebirth of the Damned is finished^^ Currently being looked over by my editing team, you can expect it sometime next week I think.
Good afternoon fillies and gentlecolts!
Novel Idea here with something cool for you. No, it’s not related to Gardens of Equestria (though cool things are always happening here at the Manehattan Project). This one is all about these stories you’ve been seeing lately.
