Hey everybody, DWC here...after being offline for a whole week...ehehehe.

So there is a perfectly good explanation for this...well I mean kinda? I brought this on myself now that I think about it...

So, I'm feeling substantially better now. I've got a ton of padding and I'm working through it slowly, as well as finishing up my updates; there should be one or two more chapters cleaned up tonight, and then from that point on, they should be fine, which in turn will reduce my feeling like I'm split in a thousand different directions. The Oranges request should be up by the end of the month, and then AJ's apotheosis sometime in June. Thank you for your patience, all.

BAM! Rough draft for Chapter 11 of What They Expect to Give is done! Just need to get it into a Google doc for my editor and send it off! He still has yet to read Chapter 10, but have no fear--that will go up on Sunday no matter what.

I'm going to celebrate with a coffee milk stout and some Twin Peaks!

Sparity contest
The deadline is December 20th!
The prize is a plushie!
I'm one of the judges

(and yes, you’ll get more a few more reminders about this as the deadline draws near)

When you've been out o f the game f or so long, your writing stinks and it takes you six hours to write ten pages.

Getting old sucks.

Also I lost my "f" key. And copypasting is a pain the plot.

this week i didnt feel like writing much in my stories (yes i have 3 only one up on site at minute) so i was reviewing my old works i found something that reminded me of how i got started writing. My one shot written in theme, kinda like the write offs. i havent taken one in so long that had forgotten the love i had doing them.

So, I recently discovered what it was like to share your talent, only to find your passion for your writing is not reciprocated. I've always rather enjoyed writing, and I've very much enjoyed writing the story I'm currently working on, but I'm not entirely sure if everybody else does, which is odd. It doesn't necessarily upset me, per se, but it does strike an odd chord. I wrote the story for my own enjoyment, but also so others could. I never realised how much of an effect those that read

Two and a half years ago I wrote a bad story called "The Real Reason". The central idea is that the whole Nightmare Moon episode was that Luna was really a BDSM sub, and coerced Celestia into dominating and punishing her. The Elements of Harmony were just flashy gems that did nothing; the only way for Luna to lose the aspect of the Nightmare was for Celestia to play the game through, accept Luna's submission, and accept her own role as Luna's dom. But to do so, she had to find it in herself to

Got Chapter 9 back with the suggested edits. Just need to finalize those, and it's done! I'll be starting Chapter 10 today. Looks like we're back on track.

What They Expect to Give will update today, just late. I'm out of the house, and I still need to read over the chapter one last time. Dunno when I'll get home. Editor still hasn't looked it over, so please forgive my subpar editing. Will implement his notes when he catches up.

Hello, everybody! I don't know how blogs work whatsoever, but I figured I'd make one anyway. This blog isn't about any given story, it's mostly going to be about my current projects, my story as a writer, and this site in general: My opinions and views.

Hello there old friends,

It is I, Mariacheat-Brony and I'm writing to you answer the questions you all might have about what has been going on with my writing for. That is a blog post that is extremely long overdue to be perfectly honest.

Have I left the MLP Fandom?
I still am into MLP, but I'm nowhere near invested in the show as I was back to my beginning.
I follow the show religiously and enjoy it a whole lot but I do not consume fan contents as much as I used to.

What is Blank Page Syndrome? It's avoiding starting to write. It can take many forms. Apathy. Avoiding the room where your writing device sits. Finding yourself sweeping the floor for the nth time or playing a game when you were definitely sure you were about to get started.

Though I haven't posted anything in aaages, I've been writing like a mad mare. I'm 150,000 words in on this new story I've been working on and I guesstimate I'm about 2/3rds of the way through the plot. Once it's finished I'm going to post it... probably a chapter a week or something, rather than all in one go.

I've been poking at my other stories a bit, but nothing to post yet.

People liked this when I posted it in the Fallout: Equestria group, so I thought, why not copy it into my blog so a bunch more people can see it

I wrote a second self-editing blog now! Check it out after you're done with this one.

I'm only now starting to realise how much writing entails. Sometimes it takes me a week just to write a single chapter for my story. I find writing and editing all in one go takes too much time and focused effort. So I tend to space out the work over a few days to make the writing process just a little bit easier. Sometimes I'll think I'm finally content with the finished product only to get one sentence in and find approximately sixteen errors I overlooked. It's kind of disheartening. I shall

Hey there, guys and gals. Guess this would have happened sooner or later. I think I've hit a burnout in my writing. Now that doesn't mean I'm giving up on writing forever. I think this stems from four years of continuous writing. Like... I've done this writing for nonstop for four years. I think it's time I took a small break on writing for now. And of course, this does not mean I'm going to stop writing for my stories. I just have had too many things to focus on at once.

So this is something I’ve been wanting to try for the past day or two after someone messaged me and said would I be interested in offering them.

If anyone is interested in a story there is a link now at the very top of my tumblr page (https://www.tumblr.com/blog/archeya) for you to fill out a google form. This will open and close due to my availability etc. You can see examples of my work on my fimfiction page.

Also a direct link to the form itself: https://goo.gl/forms/TzPDrBZhcnx4lR373
