I find it fitting that I enjoy writing, since my last name is Ward. "The Old Gaelic surname derives from "Mac an Bhaird" ("son of the Bard"). A bard being a story teller or poet." - Surname meaning.

Nevei's Fall Progress Update · 2:17am Jun 7th, 2014

Just a short progress update to let you guys know what's going on. Currently Nevei's Fall is at 5,608 words. I've been writing at about a thousand words a night at work (about eight or so pages worth of notebook paper). I don't really want it to go over 10,000 words, but 15,000 is the limit. So far I feel its going pretty good, plot wise. Although it has felt like its strayed off course a few times, but I've been trying to reel that back in and keep it on course.

Rise of the Changelings

Glacies, a small nation north of the Equestrian Crystal Mountains, was covered in ice. It's not supposed to be like this...

New Group + A Short Update · 7:35pm May 29th, 2014

New Group Here
I made that universe group that I was talking about a while back, feel free to go ahead and check it out. Basically what it is is a place for stories that take place in the same universe as all my stories. So if you wish to write about events that take place before or after my stories, or even rewrite my stories, go ahead. (I'll create a forum thread that explains that)

Been awhile since I've done one, so I figured I might as well.

Progress in Desert Storm is very slow. But I have made some progress whilst at work. Working 11 PM to 7 AM leave some downtime, so I'm trying to take advantage of that and write some, without getting caught.

No estimation on when Chapter 3 - "Caligo" will be finished. Right now I'm at about 2,100 words (Haven't updated my user page)

So I hope you guys stay around during these slow times,
- Sam.

Excellent news! I can continue to write! Production in Desert Storm shall continue.

Although I have just completed my final day of school, it does not mean that I'll have more time. If anything, it means I have less because now I have to get a job. But, I'll still try to find time to write and what-not. Hopefully I'll get a few more chapters in before I leave for Marine boot camp in a few months.

Phantom Knight drawing in Desert Storm · 3:17am May 14th, 2014

Just a quick story progress update along with the pictures. I don't know if I'll be able to write any more after I just posted the second chapter. I'll see what I can do, but no guarantees. Once I know for sure, I'll make another post via my phone to let you all know, as well as change the story status from "incomplete" to "on hiatus". If not, then I'll try my best to find some time to write and keep getting these chapters out.
Thanks for the patience!
- Sam.

A quick update for you followers of Desert Storm.

I had a busy weekend, with prom Saturday followed immediately by a police Ride Along on Sunday, I had not the time nor energy to write much. I got a few lines of dialogue in, but then I completely lost focus and went to bed. Seeing as how this is my last week, of school, the last day being Thursday, I'm rushing to finish the second chapter before the school reclaims its laptop that I've been using to write these stories.

Actual work has begun on Broken Feathers: Desert Storm. As my user page shows, I'm up to nearly 900 words from yesterday alone (I've been planning the days before, and thus nothing was actually written, though I have several thousand words in notes.)

Just because you guys who are following me are just so awesome, here's the firs two paragraphs from the story, since I feel compelled to give you guys something.
