Some Updates · 6:13am Mar 17th, 2020
Hey Folks, me again. Just thought I'd touch base since it's been awhile since the last chapter for TOFB, although many of you have probably already come to expect that by now.

Well, tropical storm really... :/
Meanwhile, my Facebook feed:
Think I'd rather have a snow storm...
... I can only dream...
In Disney’s The Lion Guard, a tv show midquel to The Lion King 2, the writers of the show found a way to bring the main antagonist of Lion King 1, Scar, back to the screen despite the fact that he died. How they did it was by having a group of the show’s antagonists, hyenas and a cobra, bring Scar to their aid by summoning his spirit to a volcano full of lava and fire, using a stick that they stole from Rafiki’s apprentice, and getting Kion to unwittingly roar in anger.
I was hoping to get one more chapter of... something out before the World of Warcraft paralysis set in but the hype has finally won out and overtaken everything else. The game comes out next Monday and I'm going to be tied up with that for the foreseeable future. I've got gold to farm and Horde filth to slay while I wait for my auctions to buyout. It's going to be nice being rich in Classic WoW at a time in the game's history when most players were dirt poor. I'll be back just not sure
Wind... nothing but heavy wind... for multiple days of the past few weeks...
Hey everyone, just thought I'd let you all know what's been happening where I live. Well, as you could probably guess from the title of the post, it's been extremely windy. We've had some back-to-back windstorms for the past few weeks, and they always seems to happen during my "weekends" (Tuesday-Thursday) from work.
So I was walking around town when I noticed this imposing scene:
That's a storm headed my way. Looks rather exciting. Although i did notice a strange meteorological feature in one of the clouds.
Do you guys see that orange thing in the storm clouds? It's just an ever present orange thing and I'd like to know what that is.
Any ideas?
Can you feel it? After a near three months of inactivity on this site, it's finally time for me to crawl back from underneath the rock I was sent. There, where I have been working on my stories for the past couple of months (and not having it finished, by the way), have I finally emerged again and I'm ready.
Not a winner, but I had a blast (pictures will be available in a future post), and I made some headway on Turnabout Storm chapter revamps as well. No less than four updated chapters were posted last night, meaning the entire story through Part 37 is now updated. Aside from the usual edits, I added some additional details in several places, including how and why Pinkie is able to do metalwork and regarding how exactly Twilight summoned Phoenix and The Judge originally:
Including a new graphic.
It's going to prereaders, but even once they're finished, I'm not going to release it right away. I'm behind on making graphics, so I'm going to catch up on those first. That way, you'll have some battle maps to go with the new chapter and follow what's going to be a rapidly shifting battle visually. I'm even devising Equestrian and Gryphon unit symbols loosely based on NATO military standards, which you can get a sense of here:
Finished off the last two chapters this past weekend. Part 66 - Revelry, Race and Return had no major changes; just the usual cleanup plus a tweak or clarification here and there. For the most part I was already pretty happy with it, though I did make it a point to update one of the graphics:
To all Turnabout Storm readers:
As of today, the Turnabout Storm novelization belongs to me! RavenRegios has very graciously agreed to pass me ownership as she sadly no longer has time to attend to her stories or fimfiction account.
My comeback to making posts about inspirations.
Gosh, it feels like it’s been hundreds of years since I’ve made my last one.
Anyway, I’ve been wanting to make another “Inspiration” post for some time, to detail another character that I find myself inspired by in terms of whom I model the Storm King after in terms of personality and motivations, particularly because of his lack of screentime in the 2017 MLP film.
My fourth live-action inspiration for the Storm King. As well as my second to be from that of a MCU character.
Nothing big on my plate at the moment anyway, so, I figured to myself “Why not?”
Anyway, my fourth inspiration comes from this guy here:
