My Birthday tomorrow...and yet I'm Strangely Neutral About it. · 11:37pm Jul 13th, 2012

Pretty self explanatory, tomorrow I will have lived on this Earth for 17 years.

It's odd though, as I've not really asked for many presents. Most of the things I do actually want are released around Christmas time so I'll get them then, hopefully. The only thing I've asked for this year is a Derpy T-shirt (it has bubbles!).

This is me Shamelessly Advertising · 9:34pm Jul 12th, 2012

If you guys haven't checked out my newest story, Toying Around, please do me a massive favor and read it please?

I ask not out of desperation for popularity, but for feedback. It's my first crossover and so what I really want to know is if I make the other brand (the not MLP one) engaging enough for readers not familiar to it.

If you do it, I'll love you forever.

Oh wait.

I already do!

My Thoughts on Crossovers · 9:35pm Jul 11th, 2012

Hey all, in this blog post, I'll be detailing my rationale in writing crossovers. Hopefully it'll be interesting and maybe even insightful. Without further ado, let's begin.

One of the most important things to consider for a crossover is this:

Give both sources equal writing time

Arby 'n' the Chief · 7:48am Jul 9th, 2012

Has anyone seen this series? It's bloody brilliant. I can't give it high enough praise.

Whilst it is to do with Halo, extensive knowledge of the series isn't needed. The episodes follow the adventures of two toys (Arby and the Chief) who are sentient and alive (much like Toy Story). The past few series have been very dramatic and I really care for the characters, despite the fact that the main two speak in microsoft voices.

A thank you to my followers · 10:44pm Jul 7th, 2012

So I reached 50 followers.

I just want to say this:

Thank you all so much for following me and reading my stories. It means a lot to me. Honestly. When I first started, I'd never expect my stories to be viewed as decent. Let alone get 50 followers! So once again, thank you all SO much!

Another little update · 12:01am Jul 7th, 2012

I'm still working on Role Reversal. Don't forget that.

As I've said before, the next chapter will focus on Rainbow Dash, but also Rarity and the others. Considering the previous chapter was a bit...can't find the right word...um...emotion heavy (?), this one is a bit more relaxed. It's not filler though. Stuff happens that is important and speeds things along.

Expect an update by Sunday. Maybe late Saturday if I'm good.

Until then, take care and have fun out there!

Update on my Progress · 6:30pm Jun 27th, 2012

I've started writing a little bit on chapter ten of Role Reversal, despite the fact that writing on the weekdays is generally bad for me. However, I'm away this weekend and I definitely won't be able to write then so I doubt it'll be finished before then, sorry guys! But at least I can tell you that Chapter 10 features Rainbow Dash. We'll go into her psyche and find out why she reacted the way she did in Chapter 9. I'm also figuring out a way to bluntly state how the wish works in the story

The Weekend Blog · 8:44pm Jun 23rd, 2012

Happy weekend everypony! Let's get straight to business.

I'm considering putting Role Reversal on the back-burner. This is solely for the fact that it'll allow me to generate more ideas for it and most importantly, to make it better. I'm not abandoning it though, I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I did.

In other news, I made a new story to keep my writing juices flowing. Check it out, rate, comment, enjoy, whatever.

Another blog post about Role Reversal · 3:22pm Jun 16th, 2012

I couldn't think of a better Blog post title.

Anyway! Currently writing Chapter 9 and I got to admit...it's going really well! I feel really good about it and it's a joy to write so hopefully that'll show through the actual words! If I'm diligent, it should be released by Sunday but I'm not making any promises here. Gah, I really wish I could tell you about it but...spoilers! Well, I suppose I can tell you it'll be way longer than Chapter 8!
