Chapter 2 is finished, However I still need to 1 or 2 hours to finish formatting it for the site, and editing it for style as well as grammar. I'm not a any type of writer by trade of hobby, so needless to say that without editing through my draft multiple times my writing is a confused jumbled mess.

At around 9000 words this chapter is definitely longer than the first, hence the huge time required for editing and formatting.

I'm working on the second chapter of "The Tale of Josh the Elongated Gorilla" And somehow the rough draft has exploded to a whopping 13 pages, to give you an idea the first chapter was only 4 pages. I've got most of the things that I wanted into it, now I just need to run it by a few friends so I can have it edited for character personality, grammar, and likely hood, I want to stay true to all of the characters, while realistically I can't even dream too I will do the best job that I can.

I've been working on the second chapter of my fic for the past week and I've some pretty bad writer's block. It wasn't difficult modeling pony personalities in this case, it was difficult modeling Josh's. What does a human do when they wake up in a situation that doesn't remotely make sense, how soon does he get his bearings enough to take in his surroundings? Does he ever really accept them to begin with? these are the things that I am having trouble fleshing out. I am about one third of the

I am pleasantly surprised to see that I got a few favorites after my fic was approved, as well as surprised how bad my writing style has become, thanks to suggestions in reader to feedback I've formatted the first chapter into double spaced paragraphs and with slight alterations in style to make it easier to read. On another formatting vein I am curious if this site had a formatting option for double spacing instead of just using the enter key, the enter key is at least currently a clumsy

I've already posted my first fanfic up, spent about 5 hours frantically typing it and proofreading it today. I'm worried about preserving character integrity as well as making something that is not overly contrived. I got to thinking about what if a science student was transported to equestria? How would he make sense of it, what would he take in and what would he have to offer in turn for living in a strange land? one thing led to another and I decided to write the first chapter of a fic. It's

I still can't get my avatar to update properly, i've done everything from changing file formats to resizing pics to a 1:1 ratio exactly but to no avail sigh. It says that my avatar is the pic I selected, but it only displays the first pic I uploaded. difficulties difficulties difficulties.

My name Electro Static and I an new to FIMfaniction.net. I joined yesterday in order to follow some of my favorite fan-fics. Since that time I've made an OC pony avatar, found a few good authors and read way to much fanfiction. Some difficulties I have encountered have been figuring out where the story update center is and changing the pic on my bio page. I might write something I more than likely won't but we will see it depends on how clearly ideas are fleshed out in my head. If anything I
