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

Hello, everypony! Delicate Feather here! (Or in this case, Feather Note). Now what I have here for you is a bit of a blog series that I'll be making dedicated to helping writers understand certain things. Like what works in a story, what doesn't, what characters work out, whether a theme is appropriate, that type of stuff. It's also a first for me too because I've never done such a thing like this before. But with being a writer for two years, there are things I have learned from the few

First, almost two years since the last update on this story. I'm worried I might give some of you a kiniption fit from the irregular regular updates. The biggest problem I had was what direction I really wanted to take this, other than just simply Grumps McGurt in Equestria. I'm good on an idea, so hopefully I'll have this story wrapped up in the next couple weeks optimisticly, or months if my alcoholism kicks my ass again.

Well I just modified my second chapter...sort of...and I am gonna try to develop the relationship this Friday...so bear with me

So this is gonna seem like I'm seeking attention, which was not my intention, I just need to get this out. Ignore this or not, idc, I just want to write this down.

I'm so fucking tired.

I'm tired of dealing with the state of the world, I'm tired of this fucking lockdown, I'm tired of everything.

Well, I finally got another chapter of White Lie finished. It isn't even very long. However, I've got a new schedule that I'll be keeping that will help with getting chapters out on a more frequent basis.

My sincerest apologies for making y'all wait for over a year. Heck, it may have been long enough now that a reread might be necessary. I know I needed to reread it before writing, soooo... yeah. Luckily it's still pretty short.

Anyway, enjoy!

The next chapter of UME may come several days later than usual. The ultimate fight against Cankentriops reveals to be a difficult one to write. Fights involving at least one huge team of fighters against a very powerful opponent generally are (so you can imagine how the Star Allies Arc from A Sweetie Dreamland had been hell to write toward the end). To not help, I took some time finding a theme that I judged good for the fight, and then I fell sick and I couldn't focus enough more than a

Well, other than getting wasted on New Years Eve on soda and candy and watching a mystical crystal ball descend for some reason, my slate is pretty much clean, so that means stories are going to be updated(Silence, Story of a Madman and his Box, Wings- A Difficult Experience), as well as some of my old ones getting that remastered finish that everyone loves(Librarian/The Cloak of Starswirl). Also, best wishes to my military friend who had leave this December, John Boros, who next year will be

Has anyone else been told by a teacher that “an author’s writing always had a purpose” ?

Because I feel like that’s bullshit

It's time to do this again..... This time also here on FIMFiction.net, instead of just on Deviantart, to follow-up on my sort-of retrospective I wrote here last year.
