Midwest Brony. Really appreciate critiques, especially if you catch grammatical errors. I'm far more used to prose and poetry than narrative, so any advice, hate mail, etc. is appreciated.

Blackmail Photos, Writer's Block, and an Open Letter to Cloppers · 8:32am Aug 24th, 2012

Well, that's three insanely different topics. Let's tackle each one by one, eh?

Today's blog is brought to you by the letter 'H'. 'H' is for 'Hangover'. Which is why I'm writing this out at 2:30 in the damn morning.

LoF COMPLETE! · 5:30pm Aug 9th, 2012

Well, that's the end of that. I can finally stop worrying about it.

Legacies of Friendship is officially marked complete. The epilogue is up, and now onto grander things.

ITSCS 3 is through the second run of my editor and will be up as soon as my prereader finishes looking at it.

My new one shot is through my prereader, and only waiting for the cover before I submit for publishing.

I am tired. That's a lot of writing...

Just Story Updates in this One! Promise! · 3:13pm Aug 8th, 2012

I never keep promises :rainbowwild:

But there's some good stuff coming your way soon. Actually three good things.

ITSCS Chapter 3 is just awaiting notes, but should be up soon. A bit longer, a lot more interaction between characters, and now that we're past introductions, moving into the story arc and plot.

Pinkie is Throwing Me a Pity Party, and You're Invited! · 12:56am Jul 31st, 2012

So yeah, in all seriousness, I've not had the best couple of days. No it has nothing to do with anything story related, but I have some story news at the end here.

So, for the sake of context, I should tell you. When I'm not writing stories, I happen to have a full time career as a wildlife rescue specialist. To be honest, the job itself is one of many things that led me to start writing again, but I'll cover that a bit more in my author's notes that are coming with the epilogue to LoF.

All Good Things Come to an End · 4:47pm Jul 28th, 2012

Well. That's it. The finale of LoF is up. Yes, it's still 'incomplete'. There is a short epilogue forthcoming, but yeah, it's over.

It's been quite a journey, and while the story has had its flaws, I've really enjoyed it. But it's also a great relief that I can stop worrying about it, and devote effort to more polished work.

Thanks to anyone who's read it, I'll have some more thanks in the epilogue when I have time to flesh out a couple notes.

Love and Tolerate.

Excuses · 4:33pm Jul 24th, 2012

So yeah. I know people are antsy for my to finish LoF, and I'm sorry I've had to keep them waiting. It's been two weeks since the penultimate chapter went up and I haven't even started the finale. That changes today. I finally have it set in stone how I want to go, and I've had a lack of inspiration the last week or so.

Aurora Needs a Hero · 12:50pm Jul 20th, 2012

My heart goes out to Colorado. This is something no person should ever have to live through. I keep wanting to think this is a PR stunt. Some kind of sick joke. But no, this is disaster. Madness. I wish I could say I don't know what these people are going through, but I know how horrible it is to bear witness to these traumatic crimes.

May fellow nerds, countrymen, and heroes be there for you in these dark times.

Ninety Seconds of Me Making a Fool of Myself · 4:01pm Jul 17th, 2012

So, my editors have been hard at work, cleaning up the mess I gave them. Fluttershy's first chapter in ITSCS is going up now, as well as some minor grammatical edits to chapter 1 (gdocs turns my en/em dashes into hyphens for some reason). I hope you all enjoy the way Fluttershy's storytelling differs from Tavi's.

No rest for the wicked · 12:31pm Jul 12th, 2012

Well, I've finally had the time to go through all the responses to both chapters that went up the other day. Too bad it had to be while I was at work. I was eager to see what the new project was going to do. I know it goes outside the fanon, but time will tell if people are willing to give it a chance.
