I write in my free time, just for the sake of it. I also like to draw here and there, mostly the Cmc or background characters. I'm a huge fangirl, and a part time otaku. And YouTube Trash ;P

    About "WtW?"

    A few days ago,I tagged "When's the Wedding?" as complete, despite my intentions to add on to it and update.

    I believe I need to explain myself.

    While I could say that "life is rough" or "I don't have the time for it," it's not the case. Sure I've had changes to my schedule, but my life still has room for writting stories. And I do, just not for Rumbaloo anymore.

    Gosh Darn It

    I can't believe I missed "JKA!"'s anniversary. As of January 9th, I published it. Seeing that it's currently the 13th, it's safe to say I missed it.

    And I had so much I wanted to say too. I wanted to give all the lovely people who have read it a thank you.

    But I guess it's better late than never.

    Happy Holidays!!

    Hope you all are enjoying and/or enjoyed your holidays, and that you were able to spend time with your family and friends! Even if you don't celebrate any holidays.

    Unfortunately, the day did have its downs. I recently found out about George Michael's passing. I didn't know much about him, but I knew he was a great man. He will be missed, and may he rest in peace.

What is your favorite color and what is your favorite flavor of ice cream? :derpytongue2:

My favorite color is actually red. And, call me a Plane Jane, but I prefer Vanilla Ice cream. It seems to go with a lot of other toppings and flavors the most. Though, Cookies and Cream and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough are pretty close too.3780917

Why did you even start writing and what made you a pegasister? (if I may ask)

Those are two pretty long stories. And they tie in together. A few years back, I was pretty depressed. After my grandmother passed, I thought that life wasn't worth living any more. One day, while I was questioning my future and flipping through channels, a commercial for season three and Too Many Pinkie Pies showed up. At first I ignored it, and I'd always change the channel whenever Mlp came on, since, back then, I only watched the Hub for Pound Puppies.

But eventually, when nothing else was on, I found myself watching a marathon before the big season three finale. And I was absolutely clueless. (Which is why I was never mad about Twilight getting wings like everyone else was at the time.) So I went to Netflix, and watched the first episode, it was a cliffhanger, so I went to the second, then the third, and the fourth. Then Season Two, and once Season Three was added, I watched that too. I had become a bit of a secret fan of the show, and I thought that no one else liked it as much as I did.

After searching for a song from Mlp, I saw a video for I am Octavia, along with other videos that showed how there was a whole entire fandom out there for this show I enjoyed so much. I quickly considered myself apart of it, and the rest is history.

As for writing, I was feeling down one day, and I decided to just do something to take the negative energy out. So I started writing a poem. And then I just continued writing it. Eventually I picked up drawing again as well. And I got more creative with it. Mlp influenced me a great deal, and got my creative juices flowing. Once I stumbled across Fimfiction, I thought of setting up an account to write my own stories. Once I finally did, and I learned the basics and all, I wrote my first story, and surprisingly, it got way more views than I ever would've expected. Then the sequel, and then the last one of the series came out. I was mostly writing about ships in the fandom I enjoyed, (Sweetie Mash) and made it as cheesy as I could manage, yet people still enjoyed it.

Anyway, here I am, three-four years later, ranting on about this and wasting your time. But I'm glad you asked when you did.:twilightsmile:3783386

3784573 I'm so sorry for your loss and i am glad you can gain some joy from this writing cause it brings joy to us and finally you are not wasting my time I am glad you said these things I am glad overall about you and your stories so thank you :raritywink:

Thanks for enjoying my stories.:twilightsmile:3785561

1).I'm actually trying to think of ways of incorporating your ideas with the goals I have for this story. Such as when Rumble wasn't accepted for the recommendation, I tried letting that go hand in hand with one of your previous suggestions, but it wasn't as effective as I had hoped.:twilightblush:

2) Honestly, I try my best to come up with different ideas to progress the story, so that it can be seen as more realistic than cliché. I often have to read back on the story to make sure I don't make a mistake in typing and change the plot or so. Though I often have to find inspiration, which I usually listen to music *such as the Clannad soundtrack* to help inspire me.

3) I don't really do that. I don't read other fan fictions that often anymore, but even if I made a reference to one, I wouldn't want to take another author's idea, even if it means putting a spin on it. So even if my story/stories may resemble another one, it's not intentional.

4) I'm sorry, but I'm not looking for an editor. I don't think it would suit my style, since I usually like to write things myself, and make corrections myself. (Despite most of my chapters being one-shots. Keyword, most. ) Plus another reason I took up writing fanfiction is to improve my writing, and I find myself making more progress learning it and being corrected, than having someone do it for me. So again, sorry, I'm not looking for an editor at the moment. But that may or may not mean forever, though I can't make any promises.

5) I would suggest, as I mentioned a ton of times before, Clannad, (the series) and Clannad Afterstory. Though, they're both humorous, they are well known for being tear jerking. Along with Your Lie in April, Death Note, Spirited Away, Howl's Moving Castle, One Punch Man (of course), Wolf Children, Ponyo, Paprika, Princess Monoke, along with Attack on Titan and Fullmetal Alchemist along with several others that I can't fit here..

I just find all of these animes to be either creative, well written, moving, action-packed, or down right hilarious. And I often go to these Animes for creative inspiration as well:twilightsmile:.

So there ya go, hope I gave you a satisfying answer.3786783

Are you from the US and what do you do besides write?

Yes, I'm from the U.S., but what I would give to be from somewhere else, every other place has amazing cultures, and good foods and people with cool accents. What I mostly do in my free time is watch YouTube. What can I say? I'm Jse and Markiplier trash.:derpytongue2: I watch Anime here and there. And I often listen to music.3787297

2 questions... What are your favorite foods, and why did you decide to write rumbaloo tales? First one random XD

I don't have a favorite, it depends on what mood I'm in. But I like vanilla milkshakes, especially with Reeses in them. I decided to write Rumbaloo tales cause I like that ship too, next to Sweetie Mash. I felt that I should do a series on that ship too since I did one for Sweetie Mash, I decided to use an idea and see if anyone would read it, and here we are, the rest is history.3788521

Does candymlp have any significant meaning to the name or is it completely random?

I picked the name Candy because it's a nickname a friend gave me. And mlp is basically an abbreviation of My Little Pony:twilightsmile: 3795303

3795625 also side note, I am not a huge anime watcher but the one anime that had everything I love in a story (action,drama,comedy,romance and some sad moments) and the sad moments WILL make you cry (cried 4 times I counted) the name of it is "Yu Yu Hakasho" watch it when you got time

I'll try to watch it soon.:twilightsmile:3796449
