Hey guys. · 6:48am Sep 23rd, 2012

Just letting you know Act one has two resolutions: you're going to see what Trixie and her assistant are plotting, and you also get to see how Twi and Dash recuperate. The OC I introduced has only had tidbits so far, so I'm excited because soon you'll get to see what he's all about. Or not about. You've probably already guessed some things about him, which would be interesting to hear responses for if anyone reads these things I post.

Please, ignore the last blog for the most part! Also, please comment! · 11:33pm Aug 30th, 2012


Please read and above all comment! I need feedback and input.

Scene 6 concludes the immediate conflict but I think that due to the unfair waiting time you guys had to endure, in addition to an open-ended chapter, I should write at least a small amount to set up for (Gasp! Finally!) Act Two. I've thought about putting a one-shot out there while working on W2FA1, but right now I'm putting too much brainpower in working this story out in my head.

Warning all of you ahead of time... · 5:02am Aug 11th, 2012

I believe the next chapter I write for W2FA1 should be the end of the first act.

Open call for recommendations and/or suggestions for new cover art! · 4:49am Jul 25th, 2012

The first image I used for When Two Fly as One was one of the things that worked in tandem to inspire me to write it in the first place. But it was used several times already as a cover, so I switched it. I see this one gets used often, too.

... Aaaaaand scene 5 is up. · 4:18am Jul 23rd, 2012

Whew! I hope I don't have to spend that long on the conclusion of Act 1!

You guys have been way too patient with me. Thanks for waiting almost an entire month for the next chapter!

Hmm, it would seem I have nothing relevant to add to this, so stay tuned for more updates and author's notes!

Sorry for the wait, folks! · 6:36am Jul 21st, 2012

Scene 5 is very close to being edited and submitted. Like, really close. On the verge, even! All I can say is that it's easy to write adequately, and that it's an entirely different matter writing something that makes the reader want to know what happens next.

Of standards and fiction: why EQD shouldn't be surprised about the hate caused by their own site's goals · 4:01am Jul 9th, 2012

The biggest problem is that the way EQD operates has created behaviors in the fanfic side of the fandom (possibly in other sides too, though I wouldn't know). EQD's high standards have nurtured a culture of making itself a goal to members of the community, and there's nothing wrong with that. There are many who write just to write, and being appreciated or read is just a bonus to them. Some people aspire to become a great writer, and track their successes and failures to keep trying again and

Whenever I try to write more Twidash, my brain has other ideas. · 5:42am Jul 4th, 2012

Why is it that I try to write the story at hoof, but my brain starts asking "hey wouldn't it be cool if your next story was _______ featuring _____ doing _____ with ______ and the main character is all ______?"

Me: "Shaddap, brain."

The contents of this blog detail follow-up story ideas. · 8:32pm Jun 21st, 2012

I haven't even completed act one of my current story, but I'm trying to log some possible ideas for (hopefully less stressful) things to write when my first fic is complete. At first I was saying to myself, "blaaagh I'll never write again this was too stressful etc etc." But the more I think about it, the more I realize Fimfiction.net has the potential to endure maybe one or two more of my ideas. I also put my current story's critical reception in perspective with what''s come out in the past

I use these blogs to cool down after the work in getting a chapter up. · 3:55am Jun 18th, 2012

For those who thinks it's silly to take this long to put up one to two thousand words on this site: you may be right; it does seem silly. I'm very conscious of where I'm taking things, and I want to make sure all the elements are in place. These introductory chapters are introducing all the main players and bringing to the forefront the major conflicts.
