Writing In Process

Curious about how major projects are going? Look no further than this thing! It's complete with smaller things to let you know how the progress in the bigger horseword things (as a whole, not by chapter) are going, so you can guess how soon I'll be hitting the publish thing that brings my major stuff closer to the complete label thing.

Mandatory Ego Wall

Hi, I'm called Icy (and sometimes Ixu) and I'm an insane and utterly eccentric writer who likes alicorns and King Sombra a bit too much. Possible world conqueror. I feed off the nightmares of children and cookies stolen from the unaware. I am an INTJ (A-) with more snark than most can handle. I'm also quite impish and shitpost a whole dang lot. I will respond to PMs and comments regularly, so please do not refrain from story feedback, pointing out some random mistake somewhere, reminding me how cute spiders are, etc.

My cult is here. |The fan group for my AU is here. | Folks I collab with.

Some Stuff:

Zodiac: Sagittarius
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Pronouns: She/her or He/him. I don't care which one, just not They/them.
Gender: Non-binary
Age: It changes every year.

Ships I Won't Sail: TwiLuna, LunaCord, FlutterCord, MarcbleMac, SombraShy, LunaMac, FlutterDash, Omniship, TwiLunEstia, and anything that's incest or foalcon. Yeesh. Occasionally, I'll read a couple of ships on here, but there's some I'll never touch.
