I know basic geology, and a bit more on gemology, but not enough to readily do something like this.
Everyone knows about the Pie family at this point I hope. What I specifically need is someone who is pretty knowledgeable about both the different members of the Pie family, and different rocks that would match them. One I came up with on my own is obsidian for Maud, because it has a ridiculous melting point, much like Maud's near saint-like patience.
Welcome back readers! It’s Monday, and you all know what that means!
Also, brief news, just a refresher, but LTUE, the writing con to beat all writing cons, is coming! Be there if you can!
Welcome back, writers! It’s Monday again, and Emancipation Day atop that! Which is a new enough holiday that I think I’ll just forgo any break and work like normal. Especially since I really want to be writing Axtara – Magic and Mayhem right now.
Even when you write stuff that ends up unusable the times not wasted. Today I worked on a DJ pon3 scene. I'm unhappy with the result, but I also learned why. I was more focused on Homages reporting then her desire to give people hope and make the wastes better.
Whoa! Late post today! Don't worry, it wasn't because I was slacking off. The opposite, actually. See, during that month-long burn to get Colony published and into eager reader's hands (many of whom are now enjoying it immensely, going by the high-quality reviews that have already rolled in), I skipped a lot of sleep. Quite a lot. We're talking 10-12 hours spent a day working on Colony regularly, plus everything else my life had. So I was, for almost a month, getting 5-6 hours of
I don't think it comes as any surprise that Fluttershy is my favorite pony, if my avatar and my extensive collection of fluttershy related merchandise irl are anything to go by, so you can imagine that nothing pisses me off more when my favorite pony is written incorrectly.
Hello readers! I hope you’re all staying away from groups and doing your part to counter Covid-19 as best you can. Washing your hands, etc. If you are, good! If not, pick up the slack! The better we can do at slowing the spread the better off everyone will be.

Well, I guess now I can officially put "Award-Winning Writer" on my business cards without getting in trouble with the trading standards people.
....Excuse me a moment.
Hello readers! Welcome back to Unusual Things and Being a Better Writer! I trust you all had a fairly good weekend?
Hello readers! I’m still on break here, so here’s a classic Being a Better Writer post for all of you to sink your teeth into! And an old-school one too! But first, some news!
This has nothing to do with my stories, for now, though I have more then a few good ideas. I really want my next story to live up to The Endless Cycle, you know?
Anyways, I meant life developments, summer has come to past, the vacation can never last, so wake me up when high school ends.
Yes, I’m in high school now. Geometry, Honors English, and all the fun stuff.
As short as Chapter 4 for Endless Horizons turned out to me, I actually spent more time editing it then the first three that I've uploaded. I wanted to amp up the action a bit then the draft I had before, especially at the part near the end. Partly for the readers benefit, but primarily to show Aella seeing and reacting to the horror of the wasteland more.
It'll still be a while on the next chapter of Endless Horizon, unfortunately. I ended up reworking chapter 11 due to a few changes to Sky's character, and how situations in the chapter will be handled because of it. So I'm in the process of writing it again ((at least much of the original draft is still useable)) Then I'll still need to go through and edit it. Maybe even have someone proof it, though my friends who've been helping have gotten super busy with life stuff so we'll see what
If you ask someone a yes/no question like "Want to go see Rogue One?" and they answer with something like "I had to wake up at 330 to go to work", then you can make a few assumptions.
1. They're passive aggressive
2. They're a fucking moron.
3. They can't use their big boy words to just say no like an adult.
Of course my reply was "Good for you, so you beat traffic!"
