Current Tasklist

In no particular order (though it seems that I've instinctively ordered it by 'importance', I guess):

~Work with my proofreaders to get Unlike Herself ready for my second Equestria Daily submission. (In case you're wondering, the pre-reader told me that I had a really good first draft, but that it wasn't quite ready, which is as clear as day given the examples from the story that he/she provided in the response email. I ain't telling you guys any more about it, though, other than that I'm continuing to make my story better. =D)

~Convert the Mane Story of Unlike Herself to Rainbow Dash's POV, like the prologue.

~Proofread the unpublished chapters of Poeni: An Ancient Breed.

~Type up what I have written in my draft-notebook for Poeni: An Ancient Breed.

~Write more chapters for Poeni: An Ancient Breed in my draft-notebook.

~Somehow, some way, figure out how to fittingly include the line "I really love your apples, [I] want to shake your tree" in a story, even if it's only for the Steve Miller Band reference.
          ---Update: I've managed to fit it in in the epilogue of Unlike Herself, but it isn't going to be published yet;
               I'm still working on it all.

~Work with Johnfreemanwepon on battle tactics for From Allies to Enemies: The Best Medicine for an Abrupt Invasion (FAtE).

~Wait for Talen to get over his writer's block and then for MusicSlave to recover the motivation that she lost from waiting so we can start the semi-crossover with A New Life.

~Eventually do something with A Golden Flame.

Poeni: An Ancient Breed has been published do to my lack of patience

The title says it all, though I am still taking my dear sweet time with it. Also, Chapter 2 set a new personal best for me, as it has 3010 WORDS!!! :flutteryay: Also, WingWind is just about finished with my Briar Rose OC request, and I'm going to be using it as the cover art for the story once it is! Let me say this: IT. IS. EPICNESS. INCARNATE. Anyway, go check out both the story, AND WingWind over on his deviantArt!

Proofreaders

Those of you who are here to help proofread my unpublished story -- Poeni: An Ancient Breed -- there are several things that I would like you to do:
--Follow this blog. That way you can easily be informed of any updates.
--Post in the comments section of this your FIMFiction username (or whatever else would help me familiarize myself with you individually), as well as the username that you are following this blog with.
--Aaaand that's about it, I guess.

Chapter 3

I just finished writing Chapter 3. Honestly, I feel that this story isn't going to be as long as I thought it would end up being, particularly after I discovered that two of the ingredients in the story -- cinnamon and cassia -- are both from the same genus --  Cinnamomum verum and  C. aromaticum, respectively -- which makes me believe that they would be found in the same place in the story. -shrugs-. Oh well. I guess that I'll have to try to throw in a twist somewhere, somehow. Oh, and I'm STILL LOOKING FOR MORE PROOFREADERS, btw. ^^

New personal milestone!

GREAT SCOTT!!! I just finished writing Chapter 2 of Poeni: An Ancient Breed (it's 11:25 PM -- too late for link), and -- at least for now -- it is my FIRST CHAPTER TO BE MORE THAN 2000 WORDS! And that's out of ALL of my stories!!! And I do have a bit of leeway for when I do get some PROOFREADERS, as the official total is 2092 words! I feel so accomplished!!!

Briar Rose Design

Okay, so the other day I made a request to WingWind on deviantArt to design Briar Rose, as he is in Poeni: An Ancient Breed, and he has already gotten his first draft to me, and it's already amazing! He already did the cutie mark, too, which nearly turned me on, it was THAT good. I'll get back to y'all with more later. Also, I apologize for the lack of links, but I'm posting this from my iPad. ~~Brendan Kirk "Da Beejees" Julian

EDIT: Okay, I've now set up a desktop/laptop get-up in my room now, so I can give you the links that I would have put above:
WingWind: His deviantArt page
Poeni: An Ancient Breed: Link to the story

You're welcome.

Poeni: An Ancient Breed

I've started a new story, but this one is much different from my others, for several reasons:

• I'm making an outline of each chapter, so I know what I want to take place plot-wise during each one.
• I don't want to publish it until it is finished. That way, I feel that I could get many more views, and possibly even get featured.
• I actually do know where I'm going with this story for once, and thus it will have a beginning, middle and end. Yes, an end! That's almost unheard of in terms of my stories!
• I plan on adding much more detail in this story than my other stories.
• There's a fair chance that I'll end up submitting this story to Equestria Daily after completion. Enough said.
• I'm actually looking for a shitload of proofreaders to look through each chapter, which is probably the determining factor for why I'm even writing anything here at all! If you are interested, simply go to the tab above for the story, click the provided link, and type in 'briarrose' into the password section.
