    The needs of the many...

    I'm starting to make some real progress on my story "Danger Close" (unfortunately I'm still stalled out on "The Blue and the Grey") and I've already got almost two thousand words into the next chapter. My latest move is to find a possible new use for Daring Doo. She appeared early in my story, but I haven't worked her in very much since. The idea I had was for her is to possibly pursue a

    Uncharted Waters

    I've been working recently at the latest chapter of "Danger Close", and I've run into a problem. I've wanted to let one of my characters have a speech impediment, namely an occasional stammer. But, not having any personal experience with anyone with this issue, and having no training in the subject matter, I can't help but worry about whether I can do this and not have the character just seem

    The Cost of War

    I am making more progress of recent on the story "Danger Close" and I hope to have another chapter out within the next week or so. I'm aware that I don't have a huge following, but I still plan to finish the stories I've started. Today, my writing had to take a nasty turn as I've had to kill a character.

    Do Stories Have An Expiration Date?

    My story, "Danger Close", was originally started in the middle of 2019, right in the middle of the last season of MLP:FIM. I admit that it's been a long haul trying to figure out just how I wanted to structure it, and exactly how the story should develop. I'm not much of a writer, and even as a reader I tend to stick a little too much to history as opposed to fiction, which can limit one's

    Something is Coming

    I've been plowing ahead these last few days on the long delayed next chapter of "Danger Close", and I think I can say that it will be finished by next week. I should ideally feel a certain sense of pride, were it not for the fact that it has taken me close to two years to get this far. It's not that surprising as such things go. There are a lot of stories out there that have stalled out over the

Delays...delays... · 4:58am Dec 27th, 2017

Still trying to stay on track for the final chapter of "The Good Fight", but it is proving to be challenging to get everything in I want in a way that makes sense. And of course, there is the challenge of human conversation. I hope that people aren't bored with all the talk, but I am going just a bit outside of pure canon, and I want to make sure that what I'm doing makes sense to the reader. I doubt that I'll finish before the 1st, but the story will finish soon. I think I'm ready to go in a different direction. (As of January 8th, I did manage to go back and clean up, at least a little bit, Chapter 4, so it at least resembles the other chapters. I know, what was I waiting for? I guess I was just concerned about making so many changes while people were reading it. But with the admin people mentioning the problem, it was time to at least try and make some changes)
