I get a little depressed every time I remember a fic that will likely never get finished, each one a little broken promise…

>Quantum Castaways

>Night's Favoured Child

>A Stranger Among the Voices

>Binky Pie

>Hail to the King

>Rorschach in Equestria

>Twilight makes first contact

>Sequel to The Wind Thief, never even got started besides the preview (Dammit Cold in Gardez!)

>Pinkie Pie's Wonderful Flying Machine

And yes… I just combed through most of my fimfiction bookshelves.

I burned out creatively back when I was making the thread, and the only choices from that point on were to either take the whole thing up a notch or let it slide.

Unfortunately I wasn't sure how to make the thread sustain itself without my part, and I didn't have any time to do it myself back then, so I opted to quit. I still lurk and post on /pone/ though.

Part of me is disappointed that I never got to do that bigger Unseen Equestria I thought of. It included a whole different threat, a much more Lovecraftian approach and I planned to whip out stylized 3D to go beyond using what vectors and screenshots I could find. I even drafted the whole story, it's all coming back to me.

fallout equestria: Flankorage. Man that's a good piece of FoE lore.

There was another one, and I'd have to go back to my FiM account to find the current name, but it was originally about a former-cultist unicorn, involved dark blood-magic, and was set decades after Celestia & Luna disappeared. Not died – or, no one found their body. They just weren't there one day. And never came back.

Then it got rewritten so the main character was a changeling, and the blood-magic was remade into some changeling-specific emotion magic, and the humans and the kirin went away, and I was sad.

Oh thanks man, I never got the chance to thank you for your efforts.

I'm too flooded with work nowadays to actually get around and do it. That and I hope to do a project that is not tied to a niche.

Still, it was good.

Dude. No.

Or at least, only if he's resolutely decided he's absolutely never going to finish it.

Or if he's resolutely decided that if/when he gets back to it, it'll have a ''different' ending, in which case reading the previous-ending will be like reading a whole new story when you read the actual new ending.


ab6d69 No.219322

>>219301

>>219306

The thing is, there was never really a proper 'ending' planned for the Inferial storyarc. Inferials were intended to be a threat that cannot be escaped; after they had Twilight in their sight, it wasn't a matter of if, it was a matter of when she would be taken by them. You could say they are a form of cancer cells, but those of reality itself.

However I was weary about using existing characters, even though its probably easier. The project I had in mind was meant to tell the story of Elder Berry, the one who lived in isolation and eventually fell to the Inferials. It was to be a look many decades back, into the years of her youth, when she found out that there is more to the world than it seemed, and found her first great threat hidden beneath, in what was to be the Unseen. It is then that she first found out about the Night Watch, and it was the starting point of her life's journey, uncovering the hidden truths of that dead society's origins and the threats they were meant to defend the world from, most still subdued, but some patiently creeping into the world, unseen.

That story was meant to end with her being put in a sanatorium, after being driven near-insane by what she encountered. However, if I were to make later stories, she was to embrace the newfound revelations and would learn to use them in her journeys.

Of course, staying true to H.P.Lovecraft's narratives, we all know that in the end the knowledge brought her nothing but ruin, and when the Inferials were almost up to her, she only hoped that her research would not be found, not to doom another person to a life of terror.

Wait I might have read the first few chapters.

You got ahold of a critique partner who ripped out all the lovecraftian use of words and I PM'd you that it … lacked.

Purple prose (well written) is at the heart of Lovecraft.

Also an inky black pool you shouldn't drink from, but it's difficult to separate the one, from the other sometimes.


ab6d69 No.219324

>>219323

Well, the story that I actually 'wrote' was basically just an extremely simplified retelling of the Whisperer in Darkness. I can't say I'm quite as fond of archaic words as Howard was, so mostly I just used the ones that are common in his writing.

I thought it was an interesting premise, Anon getting sick from Equestria's alien bacteria.

I'd like to see you continue it.

On an other note, I have two greens that are stuck in limbo.

One is clop and the other's about to end in clop, and the only other story I've written ended in clop.

So to be frank, I'm over it. I don't know how many times I can go over the same old song and dance without recycling a few melodies.

I just want to try and think up a story that won't end in some variation of fap greentext everyone's read in a million other words before.

But it looks like that's my default.


f4b4d1 No.223949

No. His immune system can't handle the foreign pathogens in Equestria, so he needs to be breastfed so he can get Celestia's antibodies.

Depending on who you think I am, thanks I guess.

I've got to finish that fucking Prince Anon someday, at the very least. I feel like I'm letting a lot of people down and I hate it.

Been going through the pastebins of old halfchan writefags I used to follow like bonermancer and flutterpriest for fun, trying to gather inspiration.

The thing is, I gotta inject some tragedy.

There's got to be some heartbreak. Some irreversably ruined friendships.

I need destroy some fucking lives.

But for the life of me, I can't think of something original that I'd enjoy writing.

For fuck's sake, the idea for Prince Anon was practically ripped off a short greentext I read on /mlp/.

On a board this small, there isn't just one of many assorted greentext generals where you can hop in and find someone's request.

Grimdark, classical tragedy.

I read it a long time ago thinking it would get updated, but it went forever without updates. Author suddenly came back and started updating it again, and then it went back on hiatus. Was the first unfinished fanfic I decided to try, and I really liked it. Turns out the author has brain cancer…

After making this mistake a few more times I've made it a point to never start unfinished fanfics if I think I'll enjoy the plot.
