Not dead yet! · 3:47am Jan 12th, 2016

So. My living/housing situation is changing such that I’m going to be spending more time on the bus on my way to and from work.
What this means is that I’m going to have more time to fill with stuff like writing. I don’t know if this means I’ll resume one of my old projects, or start something new.

Writing for writing · 8:25pm Feb 3rd, 2015

Trying to get back into the habit of writing, so writing something here. Today, some chatter about minecraft.

A Return! (Triumph Optional) · 12:28am Dec 6th, 2014

So, as my interests do, my attention wandered away from FIMFiction and onto other things; and I don't just mean writing, I mean even visiting the site. I don't know exactly how long it's been, but I've missed at least one major site update, and by long enough that I didn't see any of the rage it caused. (All UI changes cause rage. All of them.)

Not as dead as I had thought... · 7:34pm Mar 4th, 2014

Equestria Trek is less dead than I thought... It looks like The Search for Fluttershy, the sequel to First Contact, is back in the forefront of my mind, and I've found a title for the first chapter. Still need to do more writing to get it up to my 2k word minimum, and this chapter will likely be heavy on describing what characters and the U.S.S. Baltimore look like, but I'll try and make up for the lack of action with good character development.

A Creative Outlet · 7:11pm Sep 5th, 2013

A visitor came to me last night; not the Princess of Nod, but a devil, here to make a deal, just for me.

A deal I accepting, fortifying the material in exchange for the mental, before I walked into the darkness, ready anew to strive against the foe.

Allies rallied to my cause, the battle long but hard won, the devil's gift living up to the letter of his offer. The price dims my triumph, the whispers stirring memories of woe.

Fixing "Brad", Going Forward, part two · 1:14am Aug 17th, 2013

Continuing on from here, let's start with some ground rules:

Rule One: No retcons. While scenes from the movie can be fixed to plug/cover plot-holes, the net effect of each scene stays the same.

Fixing "Brad", Going Forward, part one · 12:39am Aug 17th, 2013

I watched the Equestria Girls movie, and while there are some minor details that I'd change in the name of covering plot-holes and keeping characterizations consistent, I enjoyed the movie as a whole. As you may have guessed from the title, this post will be about one of the most controversial parts of the movie, Twilight Sparkle's relationship with Flash Sentry.

Plot, Structure, and Problems With Equestria Trek 2 · 6:54pm Aug 9th, 2013

So I'm resuming work on one of my stories... and it isn't the Search for Fluttershy. It's because I'm having trouble coming up with the plot, building the structure of the story into something that fills me with confidence that I can write it.

A Return to Writing! · 8:43pm Jul 18th, 2013

As you may have noticed, yesterday I published a collection of my short stories. Now that Everfree Northwest 2013 is over (well, MOSTLY over, there's still some business stuff I may get involved in) I'm going to try and get back into writing. So, to that end, I'm going to write up a retrospective of MY Everfree Northwest experience. Not really being fanfiction, it'll be posted to my tumblr
