I case some of you have been wondering why there has been no story update it's because of some health problems my wife and I have been having. It may not seem major to you guys but it's kind of a big deal to me. Recently I've come to discover that both my wife and I have developed dental problems that will cost us over $4000 dollars to fix. I personally require two root canals and my wife requires her wisdom teeth removed and two new fillings. I cannot afford medical insurance to deal with

I'm looking for some serious pre-readers/editors to take on the task of wading through my abysmal grammar, my horrible spelling, and my downright stupid punctuation errors.

Any interested parties should contact me through Fim-mail (as I like to call it) with their interest and any examples of their editing/pre-reading experience.

As a treat, I shall give you a short taste of the next chapter.

I wanted to share something with you all, a question from one of my many readers (I love you all) I hope he doesn't mind but you are all so wonderful, I'm sure he/she wont.

Volty Bolt asked, "Howdy I don't mean to bother you but um...When's Hope and Shadows going to update? If you could respond back rather quickly that would be awesome because I also wanted to know what is your method for writing such awesome stories."

It may be a while, I had to put my cat to sleep last monday and it's been a bit hard over here. The inspiration has dried up but don't worry, I will finish this story.

I know this isn't very Pony related but I would have loved to see him voice a character in the show. This god among men will be sorely missed.

I'm back with a new chapter. Originally I wasn't going to make this the last chapter before the epilogue but it was going to long and I didn't want you all to have slug through a 20,000 word chapter, so I broke it in two, next chapter soon(tm), hopefully. I hope you all enjoy it the new chapter.

I got married on June 19th.

Apparently, I'm in bad need of a pre-reader/ editor. So with that, I'm asking anyone who follows my work if they're up to the task.

Qualifications:
Well versed in the English language, including grammar, punctuation etc.
You actually have the time to read/edit (no offense to previous editors)
Previous experience is a must
Patience is appreciated
Ability to discuss why dialog/narrative should be changed and the maturity to accept that I may not want to alter some aspects.

Hey everyone, just giving you another update. Having a bit of writers block so I went back to my art for a while, thought I might share so here you go and rest assured, I'm back to work on the story.

Hey everyone, hows it going out there. I'm just popping in to give everyone an update on the final chapter of "Hopes and Shadows" well not really final, there will be an epilog but yeah, you know what I mean. Well after contract N1H1 and being completely wiped for about a month, I'm feeling better and getting back to work. I can't tell you how much longer this will take but I hope it won't be too long. Either way, I just wanted you all to know that I'm feeling better and I'm back at it.
