Alrighty then. I've laid the ground work and now the final sign has come at last. The three books that I originally placed on the Cancelled list are going to be disappearing for good soon. FOUR DAYS until they are deleted from FIMfiction and are lost to the ether for all of eternity. That means on Saturday the 29th of August will be the day that I come like the Grim Reaper and cleave them in two, with no hope of ever coming back. If any of you wish to save these stories from destruction,

Well, I'm sad to say this, but as of right now I'm cancelling some of the books that I've had sitting in my to do list for a long while now. I have realized that with as many books as I have in my to-do list, and my current system of only working on one book at a time until they are complete, it would take an eternity to finish everything that I currently have at my current pace. Thus, I have taken several of my less popular books and placed them on Cancelation, with the intention to delete

So I did a little tinkering with my Patreon page, and I realized that it just wasn't working out as it was. So, I have completely revamped my page and set it up for commissioned work now instead of monthly support. If anypony has ideas that they feel need to be put onto paper and are willing to pay someone to have it put into words, then I am available as a new and improved author ready and willing to serve my fellow ponies however I can.

Hello everypony!! Yes, I know what you're all thinking, "But Shadow, didn't you say you were only going to update one book at a time until it was complete?" Yes I did say that, and I'm still going to do that until Battlestations: Equestrian Seas in done. However, my muse decided that repeatedly hitting me upside the head with a 2x4 was a great idea, so I've had this lovely number rattling around in my brain for over a week and it just wouldn't leave me alone. So, here we are. A brand new

Hey everypony, I have some wonderful news! The next chapter of Battlestations: Equestrian Seas is off to the editing team and will hopefully be up soon!! I know that all of you have been chomping at the bit for new horse words for this book, and I have finally gotten enough time and energy to write. Once my editors Helping Hoof and Grau are done with their side of things, then I will post the fifth chapter for all of you to enjoy!

So yeah, you all know how I said that I would only be working on a single book at a time? Well, I sorta lied, not because I'm not working on more than one book of my own, but because I have started a coauthor story with my lovely marefriend Conna-Stella. The book should be available soon with the first chapter up and running. I still plan on only doing one book at a time for my own stuff but will also be working with Stella on

Important Update Below!! Please Read!!

So in case any of you noticed, I have put all but one of my books on hiatus until further notice. This is not a mistake and will not be changing anytime soon. Under advisement from my grandmother, who is an English professor with decades of experience, I have made the decision to only work on one book at a time until it is complete. All other books are going to be put on the back burner until they are up on the starting block.

Hello again to all of my faithful followers and supporters. I have a mission and I need your help to do it. As of now, I have pushed myself to perfect my writing style as much as I can, and it has come to my attention that there is still more room for improvement. However, I cannot reach these new heights on my own, and thus, I am asking some of you for help in making my stories even better then they already are.

I knew from the start that this fandom is supportive and helpful to those who need it, but I never imagined how fast and how numerous all of you would be in passing on your words of encouragement when I needed them most. I am truly humbled that you all think so highly of me and the work that I create, and I want you to know that I will be forever grateful for everypony who made a comment on my last blog. You have no idea how much it helped me when everything seemed to be falling apart around

Hello everypony, this is your hometown Thestral, Shadow Quill, coming to you with a very important message. I know I've been slow with the updates as of late with my books, and I'll get to why in a minute, but first I just need to ask all of my fans and followers some heavy questions. Please hear me out and let me know what you all think in the comments below, because right now I just don't know what to think or who to turn to.
