The Sentient Cloud


I'm The Sentient Cloud, a now-retired fanfiction writer from New Zealand. If you're looking at this, then you've probably already found your way to either "The Piano Man" or "Those Who Came Before".

What Do You Want to See? · 7:04am Aug 27th, 2012

The title says it all. What do YOU want to see from The Piano Man: Act II? The story is fairly open at the moment, so I can pretty-much do anything. (No clop though, and no gore) :twilightsheepish:
Just drop your recommendations or requests to me in the comments, or via a PM.

Seriously, if it's an idea I want to hear it be it Comedy, Romance, or Adventure - although I'm not looking to make the story dark again.

Writers Block · 9:56am Aug 26th, 2012

Just a notice: I know WHAT I want to do for the next chapter of TPM II, but I'm having trouble wording it and the like. I think I should take a break for a day or so to just think things over.

Oh, and as of this very moment, TPM II has 2,012 unique views. How interesting.

A notice to readers of ALL my stories: · 8:57am Aug 18th, 2012

For readers of The Piano Man: Act II...
Progress on the next chapter will be slowed, but not exactly 'delayed'. I explain why below.

For readers or The Piano Man, and The Piano Man: Act II...

The Piano Man: Act II · 5:35am Aug 12th, 2012

Okay then! The sequel is up! You can find it here.

But first: I want to remind everyone that there is also the second part of the epilogue for The Piano Man: Act I. (Here) If you haven't seen it in your unread favorites list yet, then this is a reminder. You'll probably want to read that first.

The Piano Man II - Cover Image · 5:48am Aug 6th, 2012

Okay, the first chapter of The Piano Man II is finished - and weighs in at a whopping 3,900 words. I still have to write the bridging chapter, though.

But anyway: The reason I've made this blog post is because I haven't been able to find a suitable cover image. If I can't find one I'll need to resort to a stock image. (A Silhouette of a human sitting at a piano)

So... Any ideas?

The Piano Man Completed. EiE Resuming Soon · 8:16am Jul 31st, 2012

Uhh... The title says it all.

Sorry for making you wait, everyone. I know it's been a while. Really sorry.

The Piano Man: Epilogue · 10:15pm Jul 27th, 2012

Okay, so I know the audience of The Piano Man is a little split over what they think the fate of Trixie and the Piano man. Some want Trixie dead, others want her to have to live on in jail, exiled, or just without a horn (etc).
At the same time, a few readers also don't seem to mind whether or not the Piano Man dies, so I'll throw that in as well, even though I'm sure what most people will say.

EiE Resuming Soon · 9:46am Jul 26th, 2012

Okay guys, I'm sorry. I know it has been somewhere close to nine days since EiE was updated... I've just been so engrossed in The Piano Man, and it is SO CLOSE to the end, I just HAVE to get it all finished up.

I'm really sorry, and it's all I can do to beg your forgiveness. Please hang in for a few more days, and then you can all have the Drunk-Church chapter you've been dreaming of.

Focusing on The Piano Man · 10:03pm Jul 20th, 2012

Okay, because The Piano Man is getting near to the end, I would like to focus on it and get another chapter (Or maybe two) out of the way before submitting another chapter for Epsilon in Equestria. Just a little heads up for both groups of readers.

I hope you guys are okay with that.

502Fiction · 11:48am Jul 20th, 2012

An entirely unnecessary blog post: I am really happy that FIMFiction has acknowledged their horrible tendency to slap members with extended periods of 502 and 504 errors. It also makes me glad that there seems to be a large percentage of users suffering from this, as it makes me feel a little better about how often it happens to me.
