What happened was the exact opposite of what I had hoped would happen; my mind blanked out and I couldn’t map out the plotline for “The Furthest Stars,” not beyond chapter eight. I couldn’t see the point or potential in it anymore, nor in any of the dozen-plus pony fics I have planned. I can’t explain it properly, but for me, writing and posting on this site seems to be more stressful and requires a sharper degree of perfection than writing “actual” short fiction. Two stories is

I’ll be spending the week away from my computer (and my eyes ought to thank me), so I won’t be able to post any stories (a good thing, some might say). I’ll be using the time to come up with story ideas and flesh out the plot of “…The Furthest Stars” and wonder why I’m incapable of writing anything halfway decent.

It was probably a mistake coming up with this account.

Fixed the spatial issues in the three chapters of “…The Furthest Stars;” hopefully they didn’t cause much confusion. The story itself should do that just fine.

“Brochure from the Middle of Nowhere” was an eleven thousand-word trash heap, collapsing in utero, which means it was all a waste of time, and boy, do I LOVE wasting time. I’m tempted to get rid of “Circles in Circles” as well. The single downvote is niggling at me like a paper cut between fingers.

Before I leave for my unwanted trip, I’ll be taking time to edit and post chapter four of “…The Furthest Stars,” as well as cleaning up what I already have on the site. I’m still getting used to the formatting on Fimfiction, but I think I can get it done in time. I’ve noticed some problems in chapter three of “…The Furthest Stars” that I already took care of, problems that I know were not there in the original document, so I’ll have to make a comprehensive proofread. I hate

It’s been nearly a month since I started writing MLP fanfiction again (“again” meaning I’ve written several stories half a decade ago and was too nervous to post them online; I’m content to write, but to have people actually read and judge my work is something my thin skin hasn’t developed immunities against), and I think I’ve made up a decent enough backlog that I think I’m ready to start posting them here. As I said before, I feel like I’m wading in murky crocodile-infested

For the past few weeks, I’ve been working on a number of stories simultaneously, keeping them close because I don’t want others to read them quite yet (which is a complete contradiction to having made an account on this site, as well as the very act of writing). One is going to be a long Tempest Shadow redemption story (which I’m sure there’s already a hundred much better ones), and several standalone pieces that I hope can be described with words like “touching,” “wholesome,”

I’ve been a fan of My little Pony since 2011 and I’ve been writing short fiction since I was six years old. I’ve wanted to set up an account on this site for a long time, but the quality of some of the stories I’ve read here had made me rather jealous, and jealousy gave way to anxiety, so I never bothered putting my material online. With the knowledge that this Pony train is actually reaching its destination (I should say ‘going onto a different track,’ but the point remains), I
