Hooray! The very first part of Dreamtrotters is finished!
I'm about halfway through Act 0 at the moment, and working fast. I found a good place to stop, however, so I thought I would post what I had so far.
The story hasn't been uploaded to FIMFiction yet, but you can find it on Google Docs either on the above tab or below.
Have a good read!
Dreamtrotters: Act 0 Part 1
Also, I've added a couple unfinished stories that I've written to the Story Links tab. Hope you guys enjoy them, if you want me to finish one of them please say so!

How to Write, The Midnight Brony Style
1. Start at the beginning. Write about a thousand words over the course of two or three days.
2. Just get your ideas down on paper, don't worry about how good they are.
3. Realize that your intro sucks and delete it.
4. Repeat 1-3 until inspiration strikes.
5. Write down inspiration.
6. Wish you had endorsement.
7. Finish the chapter and publish on the internet.
8. Sadface when everyone says it sucks.
9. Shrug it off, do some revisions.
10. Move on to next chapter. See 1.
Oh, yeah, and happy holidays!

Princess Woona Links and FIMFiction Profile Updated
Just a quick update.
I've not only updated my FIMFiction profile, but I've placed both it and the Princess Woona links below the header for easy access.
That's all! Happy holidays!
I've not only updated my FIMFiction profile, but I've placed both it and the Princess Woona links below the header for easy access.
That's all! Happy holidays!
Blog Reboot, Google+ Page And More!
Happy holidays, everypony!
To commemorate almost an entire year of The Midnight Brony, as well as the fact that the apocalypse didn't kill us all, I've started a Google+ page!
You can check it out here: Princess Woona (FiM)
I've also started work on a brand new fanfiction, Dreamtrotters! The updates for that up to this point are on my Facebook page (Princess Woona (Friendship is Magic)), but I'll summarize them here:
Dreamtrotters is a slice of life fanfic that was inspired by MLP Season 3 Episode 6, Sleepless in Ponyville. I got the idea that Luna couldn't possibly handle every single nightmare in Equestria all by herself, so she must have some sort of organization that provides support. Thus, the Dreamtrotters -- a coalition of mares and colts dedicated to defeating nightmares in the minds of Equestrians -- was born. The fanfic chronicles Cosmic, a somewhat aloof colt with a taste for astronomy, and his work with the Dreamtrotters.
So far I'm working on the very first segment, Act 0, and I plan to have it released on Google Docs/FIMFiction in about two to three weeks.
Unfortunately, while Dreamtrotters is in development I will not be able to focus on Everlasting Paradise. Maybe I can alternate chapters or something, but I can't put all my effort into two stories at the same time.
Regardless, updates for both fanfics will be posted here and at both Princess Woona pages.
Have a great winter break! See you all soon!

School.
Pic completely unrelated.
So sick of school right now.
School.
Schoooooool.
Oh, and Chapter 6 might be out eventually. Maybe. If school stops being a pain.

Everlasting Paradise -- Chapter 5: Broken Answers
Fact: about half an hour ago, I yelled viciously at my little brother to stop annoying me and let me get some work done.
Also a fact: Chapter 5: Broken Answers of Everlasting Paradise has just been released.
Coincidence? I think not.
So, go read it!

Going A Bit Crazy
It's getting almost impossible to get any work done, and I'm starting to get a bit... unhinged about all these deadlines I'm missing in my head.
I have a vector, several sketches, Everlasting Paradise, several Youtube series, an entire Facebook page... and I'm starting my Sophomore year in three weeks.
Ugh...
I think I might be overworking just a tad.
Meanwhile, my little brother is doing everything in his power to make working on ANYthing absolutely impossible.

The Morning Brony
Good morning everypony. I'm leaving for my vacation in just a couple of hours, so i'll make this quick.
That's because almost everyone wants to be a good person, and tries very hard, in their own way, to be one. The real difference is that MLP makes goodness easier.
Pony is such a good feeling that you don't want it to end after 22 minutes. You want to take it with you where ever you go! I can't speak for all bronies, but I know that, for me personally, My Little Pony made goodness FUN - actually fun, because it meant that I could get that pony feel whenever I wanted.
Good deeds earn you mega badass points that make you feel turbo charged with ponyjoy, like you've got all six Elements of Harmony strapped to your person at once. There's a pride in that. A pride in "living pony." That's why MLP helps so many people to better themselves. Not because it transforms bad people into good people, or even good people into great people.
My Little Pony makes us see the greatness in ourselves. Sometimes all it takes is just a little taste of that greatness to set you on the right course.
Sometimes it starts with something as simple and as pure as a smile.
-Sprocket"
First of all, I found a really inspirational speech this morning on facebook from an admin of the Real Men Watch My Little Pony page going by the name of Sprocket:
"The fandom is jam packed with stories of how My Little Pony inspired people to get their lives together. I've been thinking about this. It's not that My Little Pony transforms bad people into good people. It doesn't. How many of us were really all that bad before ponies came into our lives? Not many.

Going on Vacation
I'm leaving for a cabin tomorrow. The general plan of the trip is to be more separated from technology, but I'm going to work on my fanfic quite a bit. I might also be able to make blog posts, but I doubt it. I'm going to be there for an entire week.
Speaking of the fanfic, Chapter 5 is almost finished. It just needs a few more paragraphs and some minor tweaks.
Have a good time!

The Midnight Brony (7/17/2012)
Ugh. My parents seem bent on making me spend less time on my computer. Which means I now have even less time to write or post.
Thanks, guys.
Have some ponies!
Thanks, guys.
Have some ponies!
Derpy! Whatever her eyes do, she's still cute!
...And some Apple Cobbler! At least, I think it's Apple Cobbler... Quite honestly, I thought she had a different cutie mark. A side effect of no new ponies for two months, I think.
This is how I imagine the (inevitable) scene where Scootaloo learns how to fly. It would be all dramatic, with William Anderson making this incredible background track...
Oh, sorry. I should continue now.
Bass cannon? Bass cannon. I keep seeing this thing everywhere in Vinyl Scratch pics now. I believe it is the new fanon.
Spike, I think you need to drop the facial hair. Rarity likes guys with clean chins.
Unfortunately, this is all I have time for. Have a good night, everypony!

The Midnight Brony (7/14/2012) Dragonshy Compilation Post
Good evening, everypony!
Tonight, in recognition of some AMAZING Season 3 spoilers, I'm doing a Dragonshy/Flutterdragon-only post.
Here we go! ( This is going to be very last-minute. I'll add captions in the morning. Silly parents. )
Tonight, in recognition of some AMAZING Season 3 spoilers, I'm doing a Dragonshy/Flutterdragon-only post.
Here we go! ( This is going to be very last-minute. I'll add captions in the morning. Silly parents. )
I like this pic because it kept the general Fluttershy shape, and didn't simply draw a fluttershy-colored dragon. I wonder... what would a pony's reaction be to having claws? similar to a human's reaction to having hooves, I suppose...
This is the cover of a really nice Flutterdragon fic I read a while back. The artist went for a more serpentine dragon feel in this pic, and it fit well.
Baby Flutterdragon, aka Spikeshy. Looks like a recolor of some of those R63 Spike pics I've found.
And now, an adult Flutterdragon. This one is a recolor of the Red Dragon from Dragonshy (the episode). Not much to say about it...
This one is a tad dis-proportioned, but I like it. The wing skin seem to be attached to her sides...
If Fluttershy was Flutterdragon the entire series... That would be INTERESTING.
Standard dragon style, with Fluttershy-like features. Nice sketch.
There are so many different dragon styles here, I love it! This one has a long, thin tail, with the wings attached all the way down the spine.
Now, this pic is really interesting. It goes with a very unorthodox dragon style, retaining the hooves, hair, and feathered wings while still adding dragon features. This is my favorite of the bunch.
This concludes the Dragonshy post! I used to be into dragons before ponies, so I have a bit more experience than with some of the other creatures in the MLP universe, like Manticores. I hope you guys enjoyed it!

The Midnight Brony 7/12/2012
EDIT: This was meant to be posted but it didn't go through.
No post yesterday due to technical difficulties. sorry 'bout that.
Chapter 5 has also pushed through my writers block, and is now moving quite quickly. I expect it to be done by the end of the weekend, if I'm lucky.
Oh, and I found Source Filmmaker. Maybe I can get some Gmod Pony models in there and do some video making!
Speaking of video making, I've been playing Tekkit quite a bit and I'm thinking of making some videos of it. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Yogscast playing it, I swear!
With all that news out of the way, it's about time we get some ponies in here.

Gosh, that figure is scary thin. To each his own art style, I suppose. The armor looks more ornate than practical, though.
My life needs more Octavia. Order, sophistication, witty banter... I need more of it. Especially when it comes to writing fanfics.
Oh look, anthro. Why did I download this again?
Oh right, it was AMAZING! Love the hair, Rarity.
There should be a Minecraft mod just to make the creepers say "Foreeeveeeeer". Then we'd couple it with the Mine Little Pony mod and go crazy.
With ponies, of course.
I've never played League of Legends. I tried Heroes of Newerth, but I sucked at it. I wonder if I would like this game any better...
Have a good night, everypony!

Working On The Cover For Everlasting Paradise
The title. Read it.
EDIT 1: Here's a sketch preview before I do the vector.
EDIT 1: Here's a sketch preview before I do the vector.
This is Argent, in filly form, at the current point in the story.
Yes, she's an Alicorn. YES, I totally broke the first rule of OC stories. However, she can't fly, and her power comes from... well, I won't spoil that yet, but the power isn't exactly her's. You'll find out when I finish Chapter Five. Someday.

The Midnight Brony (7/10/2012)
EDIT: it seems that these pics are bugging out. Oh well, I tried!
Good evening, everypony!
I'm going to try out the Random Facebook Image Night idea that I had yesterday.
Here we go. We will start with the most current pony picture on my newsfeed and go from there.
Ah, the standard Trollestia pic. I don't want to know what she does to the poor saps who just say "yes."
C-c-cute! There's not much to say here besides that, but these resemble the standard three humanized Fluttershy outfits pretty well.
4Chan Pony. He/she/it continues to find his/her/its way onto my newsfeed. Please, 4Chan pony, leave me alone.
And here's more cute Fluttershy, in Pony form this time! I notice her stomach is a big big in this pic, but the hair looks nice.
Cloudchaser and... and... her friend! I swear, Cloudchaser got aaaall the great art and... her friend didn't get any recognition. In fact, now that I look at her, she looks suspiciously like a Fluttershy recolor.
The Ponies in Wedding Dresses meme was popular for a while, but I still think that they all rivaled Fluttershy's cuteness level. I didn't say they surpassed her level, just rivaled it.
Is it that time already? I'm afraid I have to leave. Have a good night's sleep, everypony! See you in the morning!

New Post Idea?
I was thinking that if I was low on time, I could post a collection of the most recent ten or so facebook pony images that I find on my newsfeed. I would avoid nsfw pics.
So, what do you guys think? Should I do some commentary on split-second facebook images?

The Midnight Brony (7/9/2012)
Two back-to-back posts are almost unheard of on this blog. Good thing I decided to actually remember to post tonight.
Lyra would make a perfect Link. The clothing makes me wonder though... How does Lyra/Link hold all those tools and weapons?
I think that Pony Joe/Donut Joe is just a really nice guy with a love for sweet circular desserts. I can totally see this happening as canon, which is what makes this picture so good in my eyes.
Bad quality is bad. I almost want to find this meme, just to see all of the captions. The sad pony is going to make me depressed if I see too many, though...
There are just a few too many comics about Derpy getting her eyes fixed, followed by her freaking out. I'm not sure if it's just a thing, or if it's a general headcanon... hmm...
Vinyl Scratch is always awesome. Seeing her eyes is even better. Ponies with guns is also awesome. The awesomeness of this picture is leaving me breathless.
I'm positive this is a reference to something. I just can't put my hoof on it. Oh, and this picture is amazing. It really looks like a pony that could be a part of the mlp universe.
Unfortunately, I'm running a bit behind schedule, so I'll have to end it here. Have a good sleep, everypony!
Well, unless you're camping on EQD, looking for an elusive first comment slot at two in the morning.
Dang speed-typers...

The Midnight Brony (7/8/2012)
Once again, sorry for neglecting the internet for a while, the recent streak of heat waves has left me with little to no work ethic.
Here, have this post before I go to bed. Because I'm so sleepy, I'm picking a lot of cute pics tonight.

D'aww, Chrome is so cute... In fact, I've begun using Chrome rather than Firefox due to a large selection of free apps. Eat your heart out, Apple.
No, not you, Applejack.
I kind of want those butterfly headphones. Then again, I also want those Vinyl Scratch headphones...
Either way, Lyra and Bon Bon tend to get a lot of cute pics. The headphones really make this pic for me.
The Queen of Cuteness is Young Granny Smith.
Well, at least in her time. Now it's Fluttershy's title.
Well, speak of the- D'aww...
Why a Pokeball? Why not a Pokeball?! Surprise is sooo cute!
No, Pinkie! Not the Flutter-juice! I-I can't take it... I... I...
HHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNGGG!
Oh, my eyes... I think the cuteness made them implode... Well, I'll see you guys tomorrow! G'night!

Oh, and there's an hour long Amnesia vid in the works. You know, if you want to watch it.
Bleeeeh...

Vector Project Finished!
Well, I was working on the vector project...
well, okay, so I was playing Realm of the Mad God, but that's beside the point...
Anyway, I saw the Meanwhile At The Super Awesome Base meme, and I was INSPIRED! So I made a vector of that, instead.
It's probably pretty meh, but I like it anyway. Enjoy!
Bonus for cutting into the blog sidebar? XD
EDIT: Fixed part of the hoof overlapping with the table :P

Pony Vector Project
I have made it my personal endeavor to sketch and vector my OC, in an attempt to increase my pony art skill.
The first step, for me, is to learn how to draw ponies. I can usually do a pretty convincing head, but to draw a full body with correct proportions has always escaped me.
When I finally finish everything, I'll post it to the blog.
Have a good day!

Emergency post from a library time!
So, yeah, I'm going to be volunteering at a library as of next week. That means less time for posts, but it is a requirement for high school graduation, so it's unavoidable.
I have already started work on Chapter 5 of Everlasting Paradise, and as I expected it is going much faster than the previous chapter. Expect it done in a week or so.
Speaking of Chapter 5, it's the big reveal for the rest of the story, and answers the question of why Argent is in Equestria, anyway. Without spoiling anything, it involves technology. A LOT of technology.
Well, you'll have to read it to find out.
Have some Morning Music!
I really don't have that much time to talk, so I have to go. See you later!

I suppose that waking up at 3 in the morning to play Minish Cap wasn't exactly a good idea, but it sure was rewarding.;
I'm also going to be playing a bit of Amnesia today... Because my personal wellbeing has been thrown out the window to give you guys more videos. Or, I might chicken out and play Lone Survivor instead.
Anyway, have some Morning Music.

Amber Spark OC -- Twilight Recoloring!
Well, I got bored again while my video uploaded, so I decided to make Amber Spark a bit more... lively. I whipped out GIMP with a vector of Twilight and set out to see just how hard it is to recolor a pony into your OC.
The results are satisfying. Not as satisfying as drawing it myself, but I have no idea how to do that, so this is as close as I can get to actually making new art. It took me about an hour to get the final product.
Oh, and thanks to the MLP Vector Club for the Twilight vector I used!

Oh my god I'm tired...
At least I have a nice day where I can just relax, make videos, and write my fanfic, right?
Right.
Anyway, nothing much has actually happened lately. I'm not sure if it's a side effect of me trying to relax and take it easy, or if life in general has just been slow. It's a bit unsettling...

The Midnight Brony (6/17/2012)
Well, it's back to summer school tomorrow... Somehow, I feel like I'm going to have even less time than last week. The good news is, there's a perfect time slot for me to record youtube videos in between the time when I get home and my brother gets home.
Well, enough chit-chat. Let's get some ponies in here!
Well, enough chit-chat. Let's get some ponies in here!
I realized that my original OC was incredibly OP, so I redid him as Amber Spark, a unicorn with a knack for fixing and making machines and technology. I also made an OC for an anti-brony friend of mine, for no reason except I was incredibly bored that day. We had a bit of a rivalry going all school year, and the ponysona I gave him was Minty Hooves. He wasn't too much of a hater until he discovered Cloppers. Oh, all the stereotyping...
I might use this as my new Youtube video opening pic if my dad records with me. We fit the Applejack and Big Mac parts pretty well.
Personally, Fluttershy's Gala dress was my favorite. Pinkie's is still amazing, though.
I'm not sure why Fluttershy is wearing a dress, or why a human is involved, but I think this had something to do with the Brony Chat group on Facebook. Hmm...
More Pinkie Pie being cute! She definitely deserves more cute pics, along with Twilight. I usually see the other Mane 6 in pics like these.
This picture fills me with the strangest combination of sad sympathy and bitter happiness. I want to cry, but I also feel like laughing in spite. I need to vent some hate guys, I think I'm having a Love and Tolerance overload...
Deoxys pony? sure, why not?! There have been weirder crossovers.
What's that? I have to sleep? *sigh...* Fiiine, I'll sleep. So much for a long post... Goodnight, everypony!
