I've come to a rather huge decision... I am going to rewrite the entire story from scratch.

The reasoning behind this is that over the last few months, I've thought of better ways that I can carry out this story. I've brainstormed every single day and have written down every idea that has come to mind, and so far, I am satisfied and actually motivated to completely restart this story.

Just a quick blog saying that I have had another editor, the awesome Wing, go through and help me make changes that were needed. There are some new aspects but the overall story is the same. Feel free to point out any issues as usual.

Thank you.

So, since nobody liked the revisions to that scene and they were even more vocal about it than they'd been before, that entire scene is now gone. It has been excised and it didn't happen, the chapter now starts with Gilda. This will give me more time to consider how to achieve the same ends by better means without bringing a halt to forward progress.

Thank you all for your patience and your frankly expressed views.

Expect a revised chapter 2 of my Fate/ Go Day story soon.

After thinking about it more and reading a comment from Commander Darklight again I decided to not have Twilight's friends go with her instead just having spike with her. Just wanted to let you all know! I think it will be better this way anyhow.

To everyone that is following me because of Helljumpers, due to my own dissatisfaction and Venerable Ro's correct observation that the pacing was way too high in the chapter I added Day 12 and Day 14 to chapter 6, that means There are an additional 1500 words of content now in chapter 6. I'll also notify anyone else in chapter 7 about this addition, it also means I broke 20000 words!

As in many cases in life one must tear down in order to build back up. Such is the case for An End to Ignorance. The prologue and chapter one have both been edited now and are here to stay, chapter 2 is going to take A LOT of work, and I am trying to figure out how to salvage it to some extent and not just delete the thing entirely. I hate to do so, what a waste of 6000+ words. Anyway, what was previously the "interlude" is now its own separate story. What I want to do most of all, and what my

So I have finally begun revisions on the Heart of Stone. It will take some time, considering its a four hundred thousand word story that only makes sense. When I do post them it will be done in blocks. Each Act will be treated as it's own book. Most of what I'm doing is editing, as well as word smithing. Though i will also be trying to strengthening the plot lines that are there, and eliminating ones that never panned out or weaken the story over all.

Dialogue revisions and sentence structure revisions will take place in Wandering Through Realities before Chapter III: "The Aeons Torn" is published in the coming days.

The urge to revise has grown on me such as a strange Kenyan rash would. Now that I have the story successfully submitted, people get to read the Prologue and Chapters I & II to get a feel for the story while the changes take place.

Alrighty, so, I now have a good idea of where I'm going with this universe, and here are the characters, some removed, others edited for the sake of correction. (Please i need a better name for Sapphire Flower, help me out, eh?)

Sapphire Flower - Pegasus
Evergreen - Unicorn
Dirt Patch - Earth Pony
Clypeus - Changeling
Vanta - Umbrum
Ardutho - Zebra

This is just a quick little notice to anyone who has already read or is planning to read Black Sun Nation. Currently, the only chapter that's out is the first chapter, but after a day or two of reviewing it with multiple (one in particular) peers, I've changed some things. It's not completely different, there are just some key story elements in the text that have been reworked so that they work better.

I finally rewrote the final chapter of "The Magician and the Detective", taking into account Karen Joy Fowler's critique. (I changed the tea references in chapters 8 and 10 to lavender tea, to remove any doubt

Hi all! I have some stuff to tell you guys. First up, new chapters on the 'CHS vs CPA vs MHS:Battle of the Bands story' will be put on hold for revising. You can thank DJZapApple for the editing. Next, Chapter 6 on 'All About Moonlight Sparks' will be posted either later or tomorrow. Depends on how busy I would be. And speaking of busy, I'll be in collaboration with the group 'Single Writers' so I'll be extra bit busy, So I guess that's all for now. I'll see you all later!

So, now that things are settling down from the hurricane, I should probably get back to writing Displaced Into Nothing. I'm not expecting to finish Chapter 6 for a while though: I haven't really been thinking about it since last Wednesday, when things started to get scary: when the state governor tells you "Get out now. You will not survive." and the other 4 people in the house insist that there won't even be a hurricane, you don't think about niche My Little Pony fanfiction.

So I spent about 2 & 1/2 hours last night listening to Pontiff Sulyvahn's theme from Dark Souls III and hammering through all the changes that the EQD pre-reader wanted me to make. Most of them are little mechanical and syntax fixes that you probably wouldn't even notice unless you were looking for them, but the big one I worked on was expanding the scope of Starlit's "vision" from about half-way through the chapter. After reading what the pre-reader said about it (that it read like "someone

Chapter 2 has been revised. Working on 3 now.

Hi there, Sketchy here. Things have been more than a little hectic lately, but I've been working hard to get everything as organized and sorted out as I can. This is just a little heads up that I'm going back to revising chapters if anyone's interested in that.

Chapter 2 has been revised, which means only Chapter 3 and then I'll put up all the revisions at once. I had to change more for this one than for Ch. 1 because there were a few things that I didn't like on a second read through. Mainly, Sweetie Belle's little speech has been changed to be a little more age appropriate for her vocabulary, and Rarity's reaction has been toned down to boot (it did seem a little over the top, after all.)

So, I sort of went on an unannounced, unplanned hiatus because life happens. And while I'm not back yet (maybe soon?), I did do a little revision on An Eternity Divided.

Sparkrovitar's gone. Deleted. Woosh.
Yeah, I thought I had an idea that could turn him/it into a good antagonist... but that didn't actually hold together. So, he/it's gone.
You're welcome.

I'll keep this brief:

So I've been getting a lot of great feedback on the earlier chapters of Between the Sun and the Moon, and i want to address some of the criticisms that i have received. However, to do the revision work that I'd like to do, i would not be able to keep up with my weekly release schedule.

Should I keep writing new chapters? Or, should i begin the revision process?
