A fan of well-written stories, as well as sometimes, the fetishistically strange and unusual. Got a few ideas I plan to plop down on FimFiction.

Extra-special thanks to Coral Leaf and Hyperstorm_H for the new cover art! · 4:21am Jan 31st, 2017

If some of you have seen the early comments on my story, "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf," you might have seen a number of people were horrified and disgusted with the art I had originally put together for the cover.

However, while a scant few seemed to feel the first chapter had potential, my first attempts at anthro-pony art had some assuming that the artwork would horrify and turn people away. So, I gave into the criticism, and removed it.

Ch 4 of "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf" is now up! · 6:49am Jan 25th, 2017

Well, thought I probably would have put this out earlier this evening, but found I had some touch-ups to make that needed to be made!

I think this chapter will really be a fun one for people to read. We're moving a bit beyond the character set-ups, and more into the 'meat' of the story.

Going "Rogue One," with publishing Chapter 3.5 of "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf" · 6:23pm Jan 15th, 2017

Not quite Chapter 4, but we'll get there.

Writing Rarity is sometimes fun, and I had original designs to give her time to go over designing AB and CL's things, but it felt like too much of a detour from the regular chapters.

That is why I have decided to do these '.5' chapters. They take us away from the main romance, but still keep that thread going.

There may be a few other '.5's' coming up, with one I may slip into a main chapter, given the relevancy of it's storyline.

Chapter 3 of "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf" is now up! · 8:41am Jan 8th, 2017

Well, was going to do some more rough drafting on an upcoming chapter this weekend, but hit a bit of a rocky outcrop. So, what is a guy to do? Review/revise/release Chapter 3!

Originally, I was going to do a new chapter every 3 weeks, but if I keep with the schedule I have now, I will keep up a bi-weekly release.

FINALLY!! The Sweetie(ie) Touch is approved! · 12:30am Jan 6th, 2017

The Sweet(ie) Touch

Showing that I am still new to posting and formatting Fanfiction, I've been trying to get this story approved since early morning on Christmas Eve!

Hope it's a bit more well-received than my other story. It's a short one, though even at 6100 words, it seems a tad long. :P

Still plugging away at upcoming chapters · 8:30am Jan 3rd, 2017

In recent weeks, I have been surprised to run into some people online who have read what I've put down so far for The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf, and been told that they are actually excited for what is in store!

Also, looking at some other stories in regards to negative versus positive ratings, it feels like I'm more in the average than I had thought. I guess I'm not as horrible a writer as I originally thought.

Chapter 2 of "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf" is up! · 8:51am Dec 23rd, 2016

Thanks to chatting with the one-and-only Coral Leaf the other day (and seeing some newly-commissioned art of AB and CL positively bursting with growth, I was inspired to dig into Chapter 2, and get it up.

I'm glad quite a number of people out there grew to like the story, after a rather brutal first few days on Fimfiction.

I will admit, there's one character in Chapter 3, that I had a lot of fun channeling. Hopefully, I'll get that mext chapter up in 30 days, or less.

Update on story items · 6:30pm Dec 22nd, 2016

Happy Holidays, to those reading my blog posts.

After a November where I found myself at a low point, I have been trying to get myself back up to a level where I can post the next chapter of "The Expansive Romance of Applebloom and Coral Leaf."

I've been reviewing and editing chapter 2, tightening up and trying to review where a lot of my typing went.

Update on story status, thoughts - 11-12-16 · 11:46pm Nov 12th, 2016

Well, I'll just say that this week...well...let's just say that I haven't felt such a stomach-churning feel of emotion since 2001, and leave it at that. I had thought that that the first major crotiques on my first chapter the week before were tough...

Removed that soul-destroying cover image · 9:11pm Nov 2nd, 2016

After a few days, it seems I committed the ultimate crime against posting a fimfiction: I blew 10 hours on a piece of cover art I thought was cute, but have been informed that it probably is only slightly worse than art that uses Ponymaker art.

Well, fine. I'll just put it on my FurAffinity account, leaving me to ponder: should I ever attempt MLP/Expansion art again?
