Long Time no Update · 1:57am Sep 30th, 2014

Hey all. It goes without saying that it has been a long time since I've had any new updates. There's a lot of factors contributing to that; life, motivation, pursuing other interests. Sometimes you just need a break, even from interesting things. And I've been trying to improve my writing in the off time by working on other projects.

Hey All! · 5:26pm Feb 11th, 2014

I'm still around, and writing/revising. Things have been very busy for me though, and I don't have the time or motivation at the moment that I would really like. The good news is that I'm pretty close to finishing a chapter, but things are just kind of slow.

Update · 9:33pm Dec 27th, 2013

I'm going ahead with chapter 2 on Shadows. I have spent enough time chasing small improvements, when I should simply be writing. The cycle is write. Rewrite. Well, let's do some writing, and I'll worry about the rewrite later, eh? More important to put out a chapter now, especially one that introduces a new character and setting. Improvements and revisions can be made later after I get feedback on what's already there.

Thanks all!

Time for a Rewrite! · 1:36am Dec 2nd, 2013

So I published the new story. And that's all well and good. But, I'm not quite satisfied with it. Therefore---Rewrite incoming!!!

Progress · 10:15pm Oct 8th, 2013

In short, I have been reasonably productive these past few weeks. As you are all likely aware, I put out a new short story. It is about Big Mac and a mystical fortune telling pool, as well as some other grandiose and mystically obscure guff. That was a fun little project I wrote over a weekend. While I do not feel it represents a "great work" (nor do I feel that way about any of my work, really) it was a great deal of fun just to write something completely over the top, steeped in fantasy

No, seriously... · 12:44am Jun 30th, 2013

I am working on a new story! It has been a long time since I posted anything, reflecting the difficulties I've had in writing a proper first chapter. It's a trait of mine, fortunately or unfortunately depending on how you look at it. On the plus side, I feel it drives me to reach and achieve more with my writing, but it has downsides too, for example working on various different iterations of the same chapter for months! The same thing happened with the first story, Moonbound, but it

Harken to my voice! · 3:34am Jan 18th, 2013

I am excited to say that I do indeed have something new in the works. It will be a grand adventure featuring Shining Armor and his good friend, King Sombra. I'm drawing upon several sources of lore for this one, from Greek mythology to video games. Which video games? It'll be pretty clear, trust me. I originally thought of the idea as a crossover based on an off handed remark from a S2 episode. Genre wise, we've got adventure, darkish perhaps, not too dissimilar from my previous work. As I'm

Revisions and Chapter 11 · 6:00pm Nov 6th, 2012

Well, I reached out to someone I know and found a very talented editor. You know who you are, ups for you if you're reading this. Thanks to them, I'm going to be making revisions to all chapters to improve their readability and iron out anything odd that crops up. No major changes, but they should be cleaner to read for newcomers and perhaps more enjoyable if you reread the story. Good stuff!

Ten · 4:10am Oct 30th, 2012

Wow, after a really crazy day I have all of chapter ten written out. I started the day with a nearly blank slate rewrite that only kept about 250 words, and the chapter ended up being 5750 words long (may change later after editing). That's a lot of words in a day. It turns out the rather large hurricane that is passing almost directly over me is actually a huge boon for my writing time. The power stayed on, giving me plenty of time to write. Since I have another day off tomorrow I may try to

I have quite a bit of nine down already. But, now that I'm actually writing everything out, I think I'm going to need to split up the original chapter nine into two chapters. There isn't really a great stopping point either, so it might be a bit cliffhanger-ish. Still, I suppose I've always had a bit of a serial fiction (chapters published at intervals) vibe going on in this story, so hopefully it doesn't bother anyone too much.
