    I am back

    So you might have noticed I was offline for several days. My laptop's CPU fan gave up, and I wasn't able to upload anything. After a few days I got a new fan and fixed the laptop. I will upload some art and writing soon, but for now I'm trying to adjust personally.

    It's my birthday

    I should've mentioned this beforehand, as I forgot to go to sleep early(my sleep schedule is all out of whack). I may or may not draw something for my bday, if I do make something, it'll just be flat colored, doesn't need to be fancy.

    I know I don't have a lot to say, I've just been trying to get my stupidly slow start engine to run, so I can draw what I want to draw.

    Happy New Year

    This has been a productive year for me on the art front, not so much for Literature though :fluttershysad:
    but I want to change that next year. However, I want to balance it with drawing.

Why I took down Samneo the water dragon. · 5:41am Jul 19th, 2017

The reason is simple, I've gotten some wisdom form JackRipper, because of that, I was pretty much re-working the three chapters I had for my story. But sadly, when I gotten PoisonClaw to proofread the story, I made one grave mistake: I hadn't re-worked the first chapter, let alone replaced it with another document that I was making. In other words, what a total fog up.

So now He most likely thinks I'm trolling, even know I would never troll. My story was suffering from so much that I took it off, it's still there, just not present for you guys.

Poison if you're reading this; keep in mind, I may have been hit by my own foolishness, and perhaps even any given hate(Even know I don't know where the hate is, no one really expressed it.) I'm getting a backseat, but like Rocky--if you beat him down, he'll get right back up. Though with me, I don't get up instantly, I do take time at least. When my story comes back, It'll have a soft re-release. For now I'm going to answer the questions that you may have(Now I'm just assuming that people don't read this).

You know what... never mind.

No one's gonna read this anyway, sorry for being salty right now, but I feel like a jerk off freak because of the reception I've gotten for the past month or so.

No, I don't think you're trolling. Your willingness to improve is proof enough that you aren't. :unsuresweetie:

It's alright that your first few stories aren't successful, that's just a part of the process of becoming a better author.

So Fimficcritic has went through the same thing?

Just asking.

Everyone starts somewhere, even the best of the best.

So...

This is just another chapter in my origin story?

Sorry for confusing you.. :ajsleepy:

What I'm trying to say is: Any future works come from here?

Myself?

It's up to you whether you want to improve, you just have to work for it.

4606613
I won't let you down!

But I want to ask, I'm going for a new psychological approach with the three chapters of Samneo 2.0

Do you think it'll work?
My sister said it would.

You're going to have to tell me what you mean by "psychological approach."

4606624
I mean by delving into the main character's Psyche. As well as putting a close to the whole "Sequel is a soft reboot of a dead fimfic" thing, and move on from such.

Basically it delves into what I call meta. Now that I think about it, I might end up breaking the fourth wall a lot... Well that's something that I need to think about.

I'm thinking of having one of the flaws of my story be part of his character.

I've said this once and I'll say it again, you cannot create a character without building them up and expect everyone to understand who he is. Your pacing is far too fast, and you're attempting to create a mountain out of an anthill right now. :unsuresweetie:

4606655
I see...

So basically it shouldn't follow the OC? And only follow the mane six?

4606655
Just re-read your comment, building them up, you mean by keeping them in the background right?

No, just, start simple. Think about what the audience knows vs. what you know. Right now, they know nothing, so start with the simple stuff. Make him enigmatic and don't reveal too much at once, reveal who he is through dialogue and action, not exposition. Pace yourself and outline how you want to write each chapter.

4606662
So you mean the "Jack Sparrow Effect" that I dub it?


Sam and Voss(Neo's counterpart) could be seen as a likely contender for such effect, not so sure about Neo though,

Samneo is made of two people after all.

4606687

But I do get your point, but not sure how well It'll even work. Because he's suppose to be the focus compared to Twilight.

This is exactly what I'm talking about, I can't help you write a character I don't even know.

4606696
.... You're right. Keeping it simple for now on.

But before I post what I have with the first chapter, can I just ask you a different question?

How do you have my comment in yours?

Highlight something I said, then press the quote icon across the comment toolbar.

Yeah... I feel so short minded when It comes to writing my characters.


I did have a draft where I was experimenting with what you said about Samneo being mysterious, and his character is shown. I had the draft copied, I was gonna paste it, but stupid me forgot it when shutting off my PC. :fluttershysad:
