Editing old chapters · 1:15am Nov 1st, 2014

If you're reading my story, I'll first apologize for not writing as often as I used to. The rating has been good but among the comments have also been complaints about the story feeling rushed and lacking dialogue. I'm still writing the new chapter, but it has become clear to me that the first several chapters do not measure up to that same quality, chiefly the dialogue. Showing, not telling. Samuel's first person narative might not have been a wise choice but I'll keep working with it rather

Q & A · 4:42am Aug 30th, 2014

If you have read my story, Reaching for the Sky and you have any questions or observations to make about the story and its various elements, I will answer any comment below to the best of my ability. Be it about the techno-babble or Samuel's past. Facts about him and SAM, his corporation and anything else you might wonder about. Any weak points in my justifications for the gadgets? My inspiration from them? Did this come from

Thank you readers · 2:14am Aug 29th, 2014

Nothing much to say, I was simply looking at the number of upvotes my story has gotten and I am quite surprised since Reaching for the Sky has 123 upvotes and only 9 downvotes at the time of writing this blog. Frankly, when I notice another author's story with a similar rating, I can hardly resist the temptation of reading it and I am rarely disappointed. Looking at it like that, I just feel grateful to my readers. I will

Update! · 11:25pm Jul 12th, 2014

So yeah, I finally got around to posting another chapter of my story. Sorry for the long break, but life has been demanding my attention. I hope this latest chapter is to your liking and it features cool new violence, character development (Euphoria totally does some power leveling). To those still tracking this story, thank you for your patience. To those who have stumbled upon it more recently, thank you as well. I hope to return to more regular updates from now on.

Wall of text - Thoughts on season 4 so far (also, I'm not dead) · 12:49pm Jan 6th, 2014

First of all, I'm still around and I know my story has been neglected now for quite a while. I do plan on posting more. Recently I've been gathering inspiration for more chapters, because while I have plans for a definate ending and even a possible second story arc, I have been drawing a blank on how to get there. I don't want to rush straight to the end quite yet. Now I feel I'm ready to start writing the next part of Reaching for the Sky.

Finally got a chance to watch Equestria Girls · 1:45am Aug 9th, 2013

My main reaction was 'I am not high enough for this,' but then I worked on that and watched it through and it was kinda funny. Still it made me a bit worried about trying to make a canon ship even if it was just a creepy dobbelganger from a humanized world. Actually, yeah that's what made me feel worried. Seriously, his character is just a watered down Shining Armor and that's a mental connection that belongs in Mature Rated fics on this site, not on the Hub. 'We can't keep bumping into each

He just blows my mind. This is part of what I discovered through listening to Symphony of Science.

Sources of Inspiration · 3:48am Mar 16th, 2013

Hello there. I thought I'd write a bit about my different sources of inspiration that influence my writing.

As you've noticed if you read my fic, Reaching for the Sky, there is quite a bit of sci-fi there. Cybernetics and A.I.'s and inane technobabble. This is inspired by several things:

Pen and Paper roleplaying games, such as Shadowrun and White Wolf. DnD is of course a must as well, for some fantasy elements.

Idle thoughts · 1:02am Mar 12th, 2013

I just lay awake thinking about my fic. It's the reason I'm writing it anyway, it's really just an attempt to get a fraction of my imagination down on paper, so to speak. So yeah, thinking about the fic, I was on a roll and kind of made a leap to one possible ending for it, but that would take possibly more chapters than I could write. Peter Jackson couldn't cover the action with three movies.

Cover Art? · 12:59am Mar 8th, 2013

I realise my story is new, but I'd love to see some cover art for it and I'm not going to filter through google images to steal something. Preferably, it could be a depiction of the awesome exosuit. It would be fun to see how you imagine it. Of course, the ponies are not done messing with the color scheme, because that suit keeps getting ripped up. Poor SAM. Anyway, I'll let this blog post sit here and I guess the story's real worth is better measured by reading it, rather than expecting a
