Hello everypony.
Hello there everypony!
Adventures in the Weather Patrol has just cleared auto-moderation.
The prologue and Chapter 1 are now posted and available to view.
Updates will be every Friday starting next week. I'm posting it today due to the movie premiere tomorrow.
Anyway, check it out here.
Good news!
My next story, or at least the part that's written so far, has just come back from my proofreader. Everything's done, dusted, and ready to go.
As ever, I'll do my best to keep up a regular weekly update schedule.
Expect to see 'Adventures in the Weather Patrol' go live on Friday, around 8 pm GMT.
Surprise, everypony!
If you're reading this then the next spin off to 'My Family and Other Equestrians' has just passed through the auto-moderation system and is now up for viewing. You can check out the prologue and first chapter of 'Lessons from Ponyville Elementary' here.
Hello, everypony.
Just a quick heads up for those of you who don't know; the first of the spin off stories to 'My Family and Other Equestrians' is now up and running. I plan to publish a chapter every Friday, just as I used to with my original story. For those of you who are interested, have a look and let me know what you think.
Hey, everypony.
Those of you who have favourited 'My Family and Other Equestrians' may be surprised to see an update.
Do I have your attention now?
When I completed my first fanfiction a little under a month ago, I received more than a few requests for a sequel. And I said no. I decided that the story had both reached an acceptable conclusion, and had also reached the limits of my ability. I'm sure you would rather be left with a decent story, than have to put up with a mediocre add-on.
Well, I have now finished my first fanfiction, and if I do say so myself, it seems to have gone quite well. Okay, don’t get me wrong, it is not the greatest thing since sliced bread; it certainly won’t win any awards. But as a first attempt from someone who hasn’t done any sort of creative writing since high school, I’d say I’ve done alright. My Family and Other Equestrians currently has a roughly 85% approval rating in terms of votes.
Just before 'My Family and Other Equestrians' ends, I get this in my PM inbox:
I have fan art! The feature box may no longer be a milestone anymore, but fan art is still up there. You can all thank user MarkPZ for this little number. Poor Luna, I don't think she likes Blade Star hugging her like that. Some of us need our personal space.
Well, I just got the word. 'My Family and Other Equestrians' has been denied a place on the Good HiE list. The reason given was that it was not an HiE story as the main character becomes a pony at the start of the story. Also, due to me and Blade Star sharing names, it has been viewed as a self-insert. While this is not true, as I have stated many times (I'm just not very imaginative with names), I am not going to contest it. It's only a list after all.
Hello everypony. Those of you who are regular readers may be surprised to see an update today. Well, continue to be surprised and like me, a little confused. I haven't updated anything. I got on here today and saw 'My Family and Other Equestrians' randomly on the recently updated list. Not sure how it happened or why, but I can assure you there is no new chapter yet. Sorry.
Don't worry though, there will be an update as usual on Friday.
I did not expect this, but at 12:21pm BST I appear to have entered the featured box. I have no idea how or why this happened, and I sure a hay didn't expect it, particularly on my first ever fic! Hell, I didn't expect it to happen in forever. Now, I know the featured box isn't what it used to be, but still, I'm very, very happy now! Thank you to everyone who has favourited and liked 'My Family and Other Equestrians' and thanks again to Sidetrack for proofreading for me, rcmero for creating the
Well, my pokey little fanfiction has been going for over fifty chapters now. And for every chapter I write, I question myself; am I writing a Stu? When I began 'My Family and Other Equestrians' I knew I would have to take care to avoid making a character a Stu, it is a lot easier than it first appears. That is why that whole nightmare sequence exists, if you remember that far back. So, I thought I'd examine Blade Star (the character, not me) and see whether or not I am on a slippery slope. In a
Today, I have reached two important milestones on FiMfiction. First of all, it is with pride that I announce the 'My Family and Other Equestrians' has broken the 200 likes barrier and has over 200 favourites. And secondly, I now have 40 followers. Just a little blog then as a thank you to everypony who has liked or favourited my story and a big thank you to all my followers. In particular, I'd like to thank everypony's favourite Changeling, Sidetrack for taking the time to proofread my work
'My Family and Other Equestrians' has just passed moderation. As this is my first fic on this site, I appreciate any constructive criticism you can offer. Likes and favourites of course, are also desired. With the end of the University semester, I now have more time for writing. Depending on the story's reception I will either add more chapters or get editing. So, to the four individuals who follow me and consequently have noticed that I have posted a story at last, I encourage you to take a
