In this thread we weep about unfinished works by write fags.
House Guest Trixie. It legitimately hurts to know this will never be finished.

Ill start: I'm literally dieing inside now that "Ubermensch anon" has been paused more or less indefinitely. This was my favorite shit ever. The production of new green had really slowed down over the last few months but I'd still always check his pastebin, full of hope for a new story. Now it's just gone

I never even posted in his threads desu senpai.
Fuck man for like the past three days I was abstaining from reading his newest thing because of a long road trip I had to go on, only to find that he hasn't written anymore and he won't for a long time. This is like opening up you favorite book only to have a giant dick fly out and slap your face

>Reread story.
>Come across the part where some random ass Anon tried to "mimic" the original author's style.
>Mfw It's shit.
>>25895917
Ever see the 'Equestria Invasion' threads pop up every so often? It's basically a groups attempt of doing just that and fucking up with a 2 year old story. One thread nearly every week for well over a year and a half and multiple writers can't even finish a single, shitty story.
>>25895917
>>25895964
I think it's a pretty good idea - some kind of closure is better than nothing.
>>25895917
Why would anyone would want to do this?
>>25894707
rest in peace moe.archive
>>25895989
It's difficult to do in some cases. Most stories that require 'closer' are done so because there's some kind of story that people are interested in (not just mindless clop) and in most cases the author has an ending planned and in most cases would account for that subtly in the main story. Unless you were to actually talk to the writer, you'd never know what that plan was and even if you could derive something from what already existed you'd have a hard time piecing it together the wrong way around or knowing what is and isn't important to the central plot. Or maybe that was just how I wrote my unfinished story.

He always abandons ship, if it's the same guy from a year or two ago. He ran one waaaay back that I believe finished, and then every other time he sporadically started one up, he'd pull a disappearing act.
>>25895989
sounds like a good way to drive off writefags in general, especially after all those stories where they finished at a good spot but the anons just want it to keep going forever for some reason; nothing more insulting than having some asshole taking over someone else's work.
>>25894481
Fuck, I was worried that didn't finish properly.
That was such an amazing setting, and the relationship between Anon and Sunset was super interesting.
Anon cons equestria.
It just ends so fucking abruptly.
>>25894064
I don't remember the name but it had anon made immortal and locked away in a deep dark hole for crimes he didn't commit.
Shit was good, I don't know if it got finished
>>25896280
Unfortunately, we've driven most of them off already. The attrition rate for /MLP/ has to be just a couple of weeks.
Once a promising writefag appears their fans go apeshit until they crush the writers with "moar moar moar".
We probably burnout writers within the first two or three threads.
>>25896280
I think that varies from writer to writer. I'd certainly not take any offence to anyone continuing or even rewriting any of my stories.
Sure, it would perhaps be more of an issue if they were doing it while I was still working on it, but if it's something that I've last worked on a month or a year ago, or made clear that I'm not finishing, then I really wouldn't care. In fact, showing that sort of attention to my story would be kind of flattering. I'm not going to be able to decide what other people do anyway, so there's no reason for me to be upset over it.
I'm naturally only speaking for myself here, and I'd expect some writefags to disagree, but I don't think it's a given that it will drive everyone off.
>>25896445
How do you think generals start? A single writer starts a story, they do a good job and the anons in the thread keep demanding moar and moar, but no one else steps up to writer something else to keep the thread active instead of it being a bump fest. Damn I'd that's not how they end up though.
>>25896525
I hate autocorrect.
>>25896525
most burnout before they even find their footing.
They had a story about a Royal Guard who just got out of Academy Training as a Lieutenant and is slowly falling in love with Luna but is being sent off to war so Luna distances herself from him before he is shipped out, the writefag who wrote it deleted his pastebin for it even though it was a amazing story it was called Soldiering On.
Also any story from Regidar ever is unfinished
http://pastebin.com/u/regidar
>>25896658
Well, Regidar sucks, so I don't know why anyone's surprised by the fact that he's a faggot that doesn't finish his stories.
Well I was going to post how much I want F1 Anon to get done, but I just checked and that motherfucker is updating again out of nowhere.

>>25894064
Lokilorien's current two. He's stopped posting altogether currently in /moon/ and the marital problems threads, though understandable since he's busy with Law School.
I'm hoping he at least gets around to them over next summer. Those two stories are top-tier constructed.
There was a story from around half a year ago. It featured Anon keeping the Dazzlings as prisoners and the last part I remember was him hanf
having rough sex with Adagio and completely dominating her. There was another story with a similar idea but less cruel and focused more on Aria who would misbehave.
Also, two Lemon Zest stories from when FG first came out, the thread later became a Crystal Prep thread then it died out.
>>25897928
Damnit I miss that story too, it really made those threads fun for me
I had one. It eventually died and I replaced it with a shorter variant in the new Technology Isn't Magic thread. i had one In the older thread that kinda hit home but never caught on, I think it was linked,in the new thread.

>>25894064
>tfw jeck is gone
>tfw skcocevoli will never write more of the rainbow dash prom story
>tfw trixie in heat will never get finished
There was this one story about anon who liked Sunset but she was under the impression he liked Pinkie. I think it was back when there were way to many Sunset threads, but it was probably my favorite of those.
I had a couple going on at once at one point. Both of 'em sparked a new general apiece (with the second one getting it's footing alongside two other writefags). The second one itself was started because the story told by the writefag who started the thread ended it on a rather unsatisfying note, so I decided to write it again from the ground up.
I eventually got help with the first general from a couple other writefags before they dissappeared from the thread entirety. Eventually, interest for both began trailing off, and there was no way I could revive it. Not at the pace I was writing anyway, and certainly not after an unfavorable decision I had made regarding a lewd scene in my first story. I let the first general slip away quietly after the previous edition failed to make it to the tripple diggets in the post count. The story itself is still sitting there at 160 pages, waiting for me to finish it and revise it.
I don't know what happened to the second general. I don't even know if the stories got finished. I just sort of left it to its own devices and took a break from /mlp/. That story needs a total re-write, which has begun. Not much progress has been made, but it is underway.
Right now, I'm writing yet another story, but it's for a pre-established general with plenty of posters, so I'll get more interest there. It's turning out to be another long one, and I'm trying to make sure it doesn't get abandoned.
>>25894902
>I don't abandon shit
Horseshit. Jeff drew more attention to the first general than I did, and one day he just stopped updating his story. No warnings, no goodbyes, he just fucking dropped it.

God dammit, I forget the name of it, but it was a EQG Fluttershy story about her abusive Aunt and Uncle, and how Anon takes her in and tries to protect her from her batshit crazy Uncle after he gets out of jail. I really wish I remember the name, but I remember the threads getting overrun with shitposters so badly that the writefag stopped making the threads. Fuckers, I was enjoying that story.
>>25898879
A few things I remember about the story:
-"Orgy" with the mane cast on Thanksgiving
- Car accident where Anon is transported to alternate world where he committed sudoku, then comes back but the notes the girls gave him in the alt world were thrown away by the tow truck driver because they were bloody
- Search warrant for Anon's apartment because of suspicious pedophilia with Fluttershy, luckily finding nothing
- I believe the story ended around a confrontation between Anon and Fluttershy with Flutters' Uncle in a fast food joint, but I could be wrong
Anyone have any information on this story?

I came to this thread to make sure this was accounted for. You are my nigga.
SS&E, I don't care that the episodes since have made the story necessary for a rewrite, it doesn't. Just keep moving forward from that point.
I need to see it through to the ending.
It's nearly as long as FO:E but better. It was such a commitment for the writer to write and so much for the reader to read. I don't normally cry over books but I cried like a bitch at multiple points of that story.
SS&E will probably never pick it back up though since it's been so long.
I absolutely refuse to read unfinished fanfics now no matter what length because of how much emotion and thought I have committed to a plot that may never be resolved.
>>25899002
What was SS&E?
>>25899016
The author of End of Ponies, SS&E.
fuck me i could spend an hour listing the abandoned stories that i'd desperately love to see finished.
>>25899021
End of ponies? Explain
most of my stories are not done, and I want to see them finished...
>>25899135
If you're not preoccupied with life and death issues quit being a fag and get it done.
>>25899059
It's too painful to talk about it now.
The name of the fanfic is The End of Ponies.
It sounds grimdark as fuck- and it is. But not in the cringey way. It's philosophical as fuck like a lot of SS&E's trainwrecks. If you've ever got into Background Pony you would dig The End Of Ponies.
But for the love of god don't start reading it, SS&E doesn't seem to want to acknowledge it anymore.

For all the writefags out there who've stopped...
What, by and large, caused you to stop writing or just"postpone"current stuff indefinitely?
>>25900186
I felt like I was wasting time writing greentext when I always had the idea to write the story proper and post it up on FimFiction so I stopped with the promise of writing it prose on FimFiction and then never got around to it; realising why I wrote greentext in the firs place.
Would I ever go back to it though? Fuck no. Dreadful story. All the characters were shit, baring maybe one, and the story was just going to get worse and worse from where I stopped.
>>25899059
A beautiful story, existentially dark, post apocalyptic in an irretrievable way, the struggle to find hope in a truly hopeless world that has moved on from you and your entire species. You don't belong there anymore. Everyone is simply waiting....for you to go extinct. To pass quietly into the night forever. The last of your kind.
What bother me is when authors say they haven't abandoned the story when the last update was months ago. Just say it's dead.
>>25894151
Give me link.
Actually everyone should make it a point to link the story they are referring to so others can read it too.
>>25900205
This. I stopped because I realized I didn't feel like I had the right to do it. Like it was a waste of time somehow. That, and I realized I had no idea what I was doing and really just barfing shit out with almost no plan.
>Tfw I will never finish my Homeless Sunset Twimom story
>Tfw no one will ever care
>>25900286
Right this too. Like 5 people cared at the time and quickly forgot about it.
>>25900298
>5 people
You clearly weren't there, because the only people that cared were my friends, mostly other writefags. To clarify, I didn't write in Homeless Sunset if you think you remember me from there.
I wanted to organize things with files
like active, unfinished, finished
but I realized everything would fill under the "WiP" category
>>25900186
People lost interest.
I don't need constant ass pats when I write, just one or two people commenting whenever I make an update. Just so I know I'm not wasting my time writing my story.it'd also be nice to have a poster count of at least 10, but I'm not picky.
I know, I know, I should write for myself. But by large, I write for the enjoyment of others. The two generals I created were not created because I wanted to write the stories, but because someone requested them, and I was interested in the subject.

Man fuck you Lich Anon

you shitler.
>>25900186
I felt like shit every time I wrote, and usually only worse after posting. Didn't write enough, and none of it was quality content. Around when it made me a depressed suicidal insomniac was where I decided to call it quits and only write for fun now and again.
>>25900186
No one cared, for one.
But mainly I realized that I was writing goddamn My Little Pony fanfiction, Say that outloud if you actually did do stories, long stories. You wrote My Little Pony fanfiction. In public, if you ever hear the word fanfiction, it probably brings out the cringe in you. Now realize that you yourself are also a culprit in this, and for something like My Little Pony.
Let that truly sink in. I have, and I doubt I'll ever forgive myself for this.
>>25900186
Mostly, it's because I write stream-of-consciousness.
I've written myself into a corner a few times, where I can't really retcon shit without invalidating something I put a lot of work into making work right. But significantly worse is when I'll write something that caught my eye, and I'm really fucking into it, and then in order to not get fired or fuck up relationships, eventually I'll have to step away.
Then I come back, and as much as I try, I can't force myself back into the same mindset as when I wrote it originally. Everything feels really hollow and forced, like I'm prodding the characters in a certain direction rather than writing what they would naturally do/say. And the pain of abandoning a story, lying to myself that one day I'll feel the right way to write it so it's not fucked, is just the tiniest bit less than the pain of knowing I had a good thing going that people liked and then fucked it up by trying to force it.
>>25900901I used to unironically write and consume fanfiction in gross quantities. When I say fanfiction, I mean in the traditional sense that brings the cringe out in us. I'm much happier now knowing I write shitty greentext fanfiction than shitty fanfiction fanfiction.

That one wasn't going anywhere dude. I commend the guy for taking up the story after the original writer bailed, but he just turned it into step 1. math question, step 2. sexual interactions, step 3. repeat.
>>25895917
>>25900718
So general for writefags to finish their unfinished stories?
>>25900730
I dunno which story you're talking about, but here's "The Advisor" and "Prince Anon/Cel" stories. Easily the best thought out stuff I've seen here. Probably a different loki than what you're talking about though.
http://pastebin.com/u/LokiLorien
>>25901100
I know which Loki I'm talking about. I drew this for him, after all. Looks like he took the story down though. It was about Anon and his futuristic human invasion forces helping the ponies fight off the griffons, minotaurs, and diamond dogs.
Fuck, I remember when Wuten finished his first story and people were so pissed at the ending he had that they told him they were going to re-write it.That event spawned my trip here and me starting to write, not to 'fix' his story, but to make my own. Feels weird knowing I've written a bit of mlp garbage fiction.
i doubt anyone remembers this
it was active for only a short time, but i really liked the setup.

All his storys are fucking amazing, were did he go.....?
AKAME come back to us....
These threads always become a pathetic writefag-self-loathing-general, where everyone just hopes that someone out there notices or remembers them. It's pretty fucking sad.

>r9klight
Does anyone remember the story where Anon was osterized from Ponyville and lived out in a shack by the Evergreen Forest?
I remember his daily routine was basically keeping himself alive by killing timberwolves with a shotgun and he brought with him, and by the time he reached his last shell he was about to employ the 'Hemingway solution' before Fluttershy intervened.
>>25901252
It's the nature of /mlp/ fanfictions. People don't come to read greentext out of ideal boredom, they come looking for some kind of relief from whatever shitty hand life has dealt them.
It might be pathetic, but for some it's the only form of escape they get, and when a story ends without any kind of resolution it's like a knife in the heart.
>>25894477
My nigga, I was hoping someone would mention Handsome Jeck and his Moondancer green. Nigga knew how to draw as well. Talented fuck.
>>25898431
To be fair, the Dash prom story was more or less complete. I'm fine with that. He however started a Lemon Zest story that stopped.
>>25898855
I write months in advance. That and I'm the Anon who's been writing a screenplay for a never-to-be-made TV special of My Littlle Pony, so yeah, busy. Not to mention I've been offered by the best talent agents to break out into voice acting. Turns out with these people's help, I'll be able to pay my way through college. The holidays are busy.But I'll be back soon. My next green should be a "dozy" as they say...also, nice digits there senpai.
>>25901386
>writing a screenplay for a never-to-be-made TV special of My Littlle Pony
I know exactly how you feel. When I was really little, I stayed up all night writing out the TV schedule for Disney. It took up ten sheets of paper and covered the span of a month. I was all ready to mail it in to Disney before I realized I had written it for winter but it was still only summer. That went into the trash.

This one ended with the writer creating a tripcode that promptly never appeared on any board ever after. Unless he finished it anonymously in another Celestia thread and I missed it, it's dead.

Lack of interest made me take a break initially. Other projects got in the way, and by the time I got back to be able to write it, I realized I hated it. I'd have to re-write half of it, to get it to a place where I'd be happy with it, and I doubt the general would enjoy me posting the same story a second time, before continuing. At least I'm still writing other stories, right?
>>25900901
I get this, but honostly one should try to do whatever makes them happy, regardless of the normie view point. If reading and writing about tiny pastel horses makes a person happier they shouldn't have to feel lame about it
>>25901309
This sounds badass
How the fuck would I even google search for A story like this? do you remember any parts of the title
>>25901309
must read
>>25902601
Sorry mate. I'm a shitty writefag all the way through.
I'd be willing to continue my story if the idea of a general to for writefags goes through. Or hell, I'd do it in AiE if there'd be enough interest.
This is the first story I ever read that never got finished and it still feels awful to this day
http://pastebin.com/etCF8wXN
I remember there was this one story where Anon is a dungeons and dragons nerd and Sunset comes onto him.
Anyway Lyra is in his DnD group and (i think) was his childhood friend, doesn't show that she cares that way until Sunset comes around.
It was such a good story, if anyone has a pastebin for it, finished or not, I'd like to read it again, the Lyra in that story was fucking wonderful and I loved her.
>>25903005
Well now I kind of feel like a piece of shit.
I've honestly thought about continuing it before but my motivation levels fell right through the floor, haven't writefagged in forever. Also I feel like I wrote myself into a corner.
One of these days, maybe I'll actually finish that.
I'll post it in fingerbang and trixie tuesday if I do.
Its nice to hear someone enjoyed it though, sometimes I read through parts of it and think "god you're such a fucking faggot, why did you write that?"
Hair and Hugs.
Please jesus we need more Hair and Hugs.
>>25894064
It's called Writefag's Guild. Search in the Catalogue.
>>25903700
That's just for writefags who want critique on their short stories. These are Anons weeping about massive, unfinished works, and assorted writefags lamenting their failures.
>>25898793
I fucking loved this man!
>>25900672
Even if he came back, it'd never get finished
I can't even rember the name of it now but it was by The Masters (multiple anons I think) doing a CYOA where anon had to go on a quest to places and fell in love with red heart... I came so hard to the bit when they fucked in a cave a stalled the group. Hnnggg

I actually did add stuff to it, but it's added at the very end of the thread. I'm thinking what I may have to do is write an actual "Final" part to it, rather than doing the piece by piece update structure that I have been doing.

This pretty much, but even still I've mostly just been super busy. Like, losing my house and shit. I didn't do anything massive, just some parody crossover shit in the Normal Norman threads, but it's fun to write and hear people enjoy what I do, it can be a little rough when people hold expectations of shit like time constraints though. Believe me, I love writing, I actually think it's one of my favorite pass times, but anything made into commitment, especially when it's unintentionally, is tough. That's why I just write when I can and look for the guys who appreciate what I write and I have no problem writing more for them. And those who don't appreciate because, you know, I still love you bastards.

House Guest Trixie was the embodiment of the perfect Trixie x Human. I think really, deeply hurts to see it unfinished

It would be awesome if you did finish it m8
Does anyone remember a story about a guy who wrote an EqG story about anon being in a slave/master relationship with the Mane 6 being their bitch, and he tongue fucked Twilight in the computer room, was anal probed by Rarity, and shagged Rainbow. All while they took photos of him and stuff.
There was another in the same thread this one was created, where Fluttershy "successfully" bullied Anon but in reality he was just doing it for shits and giggles, and it gives Flutters confidence and a decent amount of the Mane 6 girls try to get Anon to submit to them.
If you do, were either of these ever finished?
>>25894064
tfw that Anon being Coloratura's new manager in her respective thread a few days back. My dick was getting a stiffy and it died before it got anywhere.
>>25900676
The ending is a bit rushed and awkward but it felt good to finally have a closure to all the adventures that took place. Yes, I'd say it gave me some warm feels.
>>25898771
tfw I was in a call with him the day he said he would leave. He stuck around briefly for me and a few people to finish the 1000th picture for AiE then stayed true to his word.
>>25900186
Writing for all the wrong reasons. I used it as a medium to get critique only to realize I'd never get any because it's not fucking 2012 anymore.
>>25901768
He mentioned you guys chased him off. He couldn't post in the thread without it exploding in his face when he said he'd rewrite and he was scared it was pissing off new writers.

Instead of listing the misery of unfinished stories, because this time of the year is already hard enough on some Anons, why don't we list some of our favorite finished stories?
A Sketch Artist in Equestria was pretty good, and longer than a lot of popular novels.

Aaah, fucking Hand-Made. I should break your arms for not finishing it but, then you could not write it.

Just assume any of the human in Equestia stories that's not vomit inducing were originally green. Back in late 2012 and early 2013 it was a little fad to rewrite for fimfic because some writefags found out how to rig that shit and make someone featured. Our grammar chat became illuminati chat for a bit.

ASMR when?
>>25912685
Great Question. One I don't mind answering. We're currently in "Recording" phase. I've had the script done for a few months now, but the project was put on hold when our Voice Actress's Microphone broke. Thanks to the holiday season, this has been remedied, and we're back in action. There isn't much that I do in this phase other than answer questions from Anons and make little revisions to the script here and there. Here's hoping that the project gets done soon.
TL;DR: It's not dead, but no release date yet.

Aw, cool! ASMR is one of my favourite e-pastimes, so I'm super stoked to bear what you guys have made.
Everyone spergs out over R9KlightPic Related, but honestly I just want to the see The Scilight Zone completed. Goddamn that shit was hilarious
>>25894192
I am. I've been writing here for three years. Literally no one ever remembers me.
>>25900186
I never blew up in popularity like numerous others did. Good thing too because I have a few stories I haven't touched in over a year. I think the best part about not drawing attention is I can work on stuff at a leisurely pace and explore more creative ideas without worrying about keeping an audience entertained, and if someone happens to come across it and happens to like it that's okay.
>>25900186
For me, It was the loss of internet access for an extended period of time. My PC broke down and I was unable to secure a replacement for two months. Without it, I couldn't do any writing, watch the show or generally surf the internet about MLP. By the time I had a new PC I already finished recovering from pone withdrawal and the fact that I gained access to a ton of vidya that my old toaster couldnt run didnt help my case. I still sometimes dream of writing some of the projects that I had lined up or finish/reboot the stories that I have but I'm hesitant because I already managed to "get off the ride".
I realize writing it via pen and paper was an option but I dare not have any easily discovered physical evidence of my degeneracy.
