Quick update · 7:00pm Jan 1st, 2013

So... the next chapter for "God Empress" is a bit longer than I originally anticipated. But it will be done soon, I promise.

I've started work on my next entry in "Adventures of Supermare" and it will deal with a few interactions with Cadence and some of her backstory for this particular universe

Stupid images...
As I said earlier, the next chapter of God Empress is going to be a long one (as of this post it has 8868 words, and counting). So you'll be able to enjoy a nice long chapter, hopefully by the end of this week
Also, I was alerted to this

What have I done? · 6:16pm Dec 24th, 2012

The title of this blog post explains some of my feelings.
This all started when I thought while writing th latest chapter of God Empress: how would an army of ponies fight? A simple answer would be a cavalry charge, but that leave so much untapped potential: What of unicorns and Pegasi? Wouldn't a commander also bring fieldpieces to break up enemy formations? And if assaulting a fortress, what then? Or suppose the enemy rushed you with a big line of buffalo or similar sized animal?

The Twenty Legions · 1:28am Dec 7th, 2012

Okay, this is a bit spoiler-y, but I just wanted to get this out.

So, I have names for (most) of the Twenty Legions that served under Empress Celestia prior to the Lunar Heresy. Some will probably be changed, but I feel like giving them to you now.

Here they are:
I: Celestial Guard
II: Lunar Knights
III: Everfree Sentinels
IV: Daughters of Manehattan
V: Iron Hooves
VI: Arctic Wolves
VII: Stalliongrad Guards
VIII: Wonderbolts
IX: Siege Breakers
X: Black Ravens
XI: Plainsrunners

A Little Bit About The God Empress · 2:08am Dec 5th, 2012

Hi there.
So, I thought I'd take some time to talk a little about The God Empress of Ponykind and some of the things that I did when writing.

To begin with, Celestia being the God Emperor came to me when I was preparing to do a play. I don't remember what exactly drove me to writing, it just kind of came to me. Things kind of fell into place afterwards, but it was still kind of weird.

Hello · 9:02pm Oct 10th, 2012

Greetings,
For those that have not read through the comments, I am planning a series of sides stories to go with Mare of Steel. I'm deciding to call them The Adventures of Supermare: side stories to Mare of Steel, and I should post them sometime in the near future.
There is only one story so far: Superfilly. Short synopsis is "Rainbow Dash tries superheroics for the first time... It does not go as planned".

More stuff · 4:41am Aug 18th, 2012

So, historic things going on today- on this day in 1812, the U.S.S. Constitution defeated H.M.S. Guerrier. I'm mentioning this because it fits with the time period of these stories, and the Constitution is a really cool ship (Haven't seen it in person but I'd love to)
Anyway, next chapter for Rise of the Fiends should be up soon. It's not my favorite chapter but the story will be getting better.
