I'm seeing a trend among my fellow authors lately.

I won't name names because, well, its really none of my business. I just worry.

They've been down on themselves, shutting themselves away from the internet and generally sinking deeper into the morass of depression that I know only too well.

I'm hardly a rolemodel. I sink into depression and dark thoughts at the drop of a hat.

A Heart of Blackened Glass

Mend the shattered pieces of the blackened heart of glass,
By the twists and turns of fate that time has cast to the ashes,
Wrongs brought to the stars and let it be carried away with winter's chilling breeze,
Chilling to the bone as heartache reaps its tainted path,
Marked by black roses set out for mourning and outcry,

Darn, this was my 1st PMV that wasn't featured on EQD (3rd PMV). Do I ask for too much... wait... Yes I do. It was a great project, and I watch it again and again. This is Brandon Heath's 'Give Me Your Eyes'

I know its late but I took a nap at 3pm and stay asleep til about 6 or 7. I'm very much awake so I decided to draw my mom's present for Mother's Day. It's Ruby gaining her cutie mark and her adopted mom crying over the fact that she's growing up. It'll be posted on Mother's Day but I just made this blog cause I'm bored and awake and not sleeping tonight.... Probably.... I hope everyone is ready for Mother's Day as much as I'm ready cause I'm ready!

The crime rate in the United States, and indeed, most of the developed world has been plummeting since the early 1990s, with a 50%+ decline across the board, from property crime to murder.

Globally, the rate of death from infectious disease has plummeted over time; the present-day Ebola outbreak in West Africa has killed about a fifth as many people as die of the flu in the United States alone every year.

Y'know that wonderful feeling when absolute inspiration hits and you bang out a story in a few hours? That just happened to me. And man, even though it's a bittersweet story (for those of you that don't know, that's not usually my forte), I think it might be in Magnum Opus territory. We'll see what people think.

If you want a sad Applemom/Apple Family story with an uplifting ending, here's a link!

Hello for anyone who may be interested, my first story No More Fun and Games had been adapted into an audio reading by the very talented ObabScribbler.

Here is a link to the awesome video she's made!

Thanks for reading everyone!   

As none of you knew before this point in time, I write poetry as well as stories about horses. I was going back through some of my old stuff and thought I might post this one.

The Birds, the Bees, and I

We are rude and polite and homicidal and self-sacrificing
The angel stops to embrace the demon
The rising ape touches the falling deity
And they nod to one another in comprehension
Of things that they cannot understand
Without the other

It dawned on me other day, I've lived in another country for half a year now. Not only another country, but a country on the other side of the planet. I'm 7/8 hours ahead of my friends and family back in the UK, I only talk to them through email. My parents I keep in touch with, but my friends have started to drift away from the lack of contact. Of the people I see on the regular here in Shanghai, I have passing conversation with my housemate and my most often seen friend group live in a

This'll probably be my last spontaneous oneshot for a little while (considering I've posted six stories this week, that's still not too shabby!), but I think people will enjoy this one! I wanted it to feel like an episode of the show, and I feel like I've managed to capture a good few of the elements that make that up.

Hello, everyone!
I'm proud to say that chapter 3 of A Dazzling World is out now~! I hope everyone enjoys the read! I am always open to criticism and suggestions of what to change, so don't be afraid to comment! Again, chapters 4 and 5 will be posted on Christmas day, giving me ample enough time to finish editing those chapters. I can't wait to see what everyone thinks of this third installment to the story!

Hello, everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well! I wanted to make an announcement that chapter 2 of A Dazzling World is out now! Usually, I would wait a week to post a new chapter, but I had waited a lot longer since I posted it on AO3 first. So, expect chapter 3 to release in a week from now, roughly! I hope everyone enjoys chapter 2 in its entirety because the story is just starting.
