So... Fillies is still a thing. After spending way too many months (it should never be months) not writing, I finally got chapter two written. My writer's block was caused by a combination of things, the details of which are boring. What's important is that I'm getting words on the page again. Chapter two is up, chapter three is a quarter written, and chapter four is... in my head. Awaiting the page!

So sorry for the massively long wait. If I do it again, smack me.

It's been a long while since I've updated FoE: Fillies. Too long. And I feel a bit of an explanation is in order.

I've been writing and re-writing chapter two, but every time I do it just hasn't been working. At all. And I didn't understand why. Finally I figured it out, and by that I mean one of my pre-readers bopped my on the head and pointed it out: chapter two wasn't working because chapter one wasn't leading up to it properly.

So, my last story idea didn't pan out. Which was probably obvious from the fact that I never posted it. My prereader dropped the ball and never got back to me on it, and we've kind of lost all contact in the intervening months. So... that story died.

And then I read Fallout: Equestria, and Fallout Equestria: Heroes. After getting through the original story, can catching up with the still-unfinished Heroes, I got inspired to write my own story, which I've just posted.

Hehe, punny.

So, chapter one of my upcoming story has finally been written. I've sent it off to my pre-reader in the hopes that she's still interested in editing for me. Either way, the story should be posted within a few days. Although, with my next free day being next Monday, it may be as much as a week before I get it posted. Sorry, but I find it hard to motivate myself to write after a long day of work.

I haven't been idle these last weeks. No, not idle at all. I've been working on my next story, a wonderful look at Celestia and Luna's epic conflict with Discord. I've nearly finished the rough draft of the first chapter. If anyone is wondering why this is taking so long, I should mention that this first chapter is going to end up being nearly half as long as all of Stormy Skies. Yeah, I've always liked longer chapters, and now I'm trying to write them. I've also limited myself to a specific

I need to stop making decisions while very tired.

I'm considering trying to juggle two large fics at the same time, because both of them keep competing for space in my head. This is probably a bad idea, but my sleep deprived brain thinks it's the most awesome thing ever.

Can I do it? I don't know. One thing I do know is that either Timelines (working title), Dawn (working title), or both should have a first chapter up within two weeks, if I can stop procrastinating.

So, I have these villains who can see potential futures. They're nifty, they've got depth, and I have the mechanics of their powers mostly worked-out in my head.

But I have no idea what they look like.

So I had an idea pop into my head for a rather cruddy little one-off story about Luna and Celestia getting into a fight. And by fight I mean epic battle that bards will sing tales of for hundreds of years to come.

Equestria has bards, right? Right?

I had an epic idea for a story in which Luna gets pissed and unleashes her full power (vague scenes are how most of my story ideas start), and it is revealed that, since she controls the stars, Luna is actually several thousand times stronger than Celestia.

But alas! The plot holes were many and irreparable.

First, the consensus (by which I mean my roommate's opinion) is that Luna does not actually control the stars. Just the moon.
