I enjoy writing. Is there much else to say? Nothing you'd be interested in I'm sure.

Writer's Block · 12:49am Nov 9th, 2018

I haven't worked on my stories in a while. I just haven't had the inspiration to get back in. I don't know if it's my location (I usually have a single place where my words seem to flow), my mood or what. I have a lot of ideas mapped out in my head but just can't get them typed out. I've already had to cancel one of my stories, which I hate doing. That does leave one story to do and two new ideas to write if anyone is interested in hearing what they're about. Some new ideas from someone else

Month of May · 7:15pm May 18th, 2018

Hello everyone. Given it's the month of May, I thought better late than never that I'd talk about a character that has not only had an impact on my writing but also one of the reasons I decided to give this fandom a chance. Today I'll be talking about Marvel's May Parker, the daughter of Spider-man.

Duel of the Fates Character Casting · 1:45pm Mar 17th, 2018

Since I've received some pretty positive responses from my Duel of the Fates spinoffs, I thought I'd head into the next part. The story will be mostly moving away from the Mane 7 characters and focus on Tempest and Rose. I also want to set it in a new locale to make it a much larger scale of conflict and set up a whole other cast of characters. I'm debating who I want to put in as FIM has so many unique characters and I love using lesser used ones. With Tempest as a lead I want to use Grubber

Down Votes · 2:55pm Jan 20th, 2018

This is just something that irks me a bit. It's not the down votes themselves on my stories. I acknowledged a long time ago as a writer that not everyone is going to like what I write. What I would like is just some input, healthy criticism. If someone down votes one of my stories I'd really like to know why. Was it the premise, the execution, typos, etc? Did I write someone out of character? Was the story far out of left field? Maybe the story just wasn't your cup of tea. It's not so I can be

It's Back · 3:27am Oct 11th, 2017

I've got my mojo back. Not...not like an Austin Powers mojo but you know, my zest for writing. I got a chapter written in a week and hope to have the story I'm working on finished before the end of the year and get back to work on my Lightning Dust story that I've had on the back burner before tackling some one-shots I've wanted to do.

Dazzlings in Time · 11:54am Jun 13th, 2017

This is something that I've been meaning to ask for a while now and I'd like to get everyone who reads this' input. I've noticed that a majority of writers who tackle the Dazzlings past in the human world seem to believe that they are immortal and have survived for a very lengthy period of time. I've seen some in the medieval period, the renaissance, and even as for back as Greece and Rome in their hay day. I've just wondered why this was the case.

One of those days · 3:04am Mar 18th, 2017

I've been working on something special for the start of next month. I've been brainstorming it for over a month before. Suddenly yesterday, over halfway through I stopped and thought to myself: What am I writing this for? Usually when I make a deadline for myself I have no problem getting a story out. Now it seems like I've hit a roadblock.

Any Advice Would Be Helpful · 3:26am Nov 3rd, 2016

Hey everyone who'll read this. I've decided to participate in Equestria Daily's November writing contest. I used to enter these all the time because it gave me the motivation to keep going on stories that I'd slacked off on otherwise. I'm aiming for a personal goal of 20k words but if I can do more than that would be cool too.
