Luna Before You Celestia First Draft now up

Took me quite abit of time to write this one up. Wow. Hopefully next audio mini drama I write goes shorter.

Next up I hope to spend some time writing up some Twilight Sparkle/Spike stories, presently tinkering on the first one right now. Probably won't be out until January 2013 but we'll see.

Anyway over 100 days has passed since my first writing submission and... well still don't know how my first submission fared to be honest, but I am thinking it didn't succeed... oh well. Still looking forward to seeing what three submissions did succeed when they come out though.

Here's to the coming of 2013, and hopefully not falling off the fiscal cliff. Darn Republiwhores. Evil... oh well, back to writing!

Audio Drama Updates December 15th

Finally wrapping up Luna Before You Celestia (first draft) and will post shortly.
Also going to put up Sidelined for you tocheck out.
Past that I am doing some podcasting work this weekend so I might be a bit slow on scripting this week.

Anyway more updates this weekend hopefully so stay tuned and Merry Christmas.

Thursday, December 6, 2012

Audio Drama Script Update December 6th

Almost done with Luna Before You Celestia... should be done by this weekend.

Next inspiration is to craft out a couple of Twilight/Spike minis (best team ever!) but working on the ideas for stories right now... hope to start writing something after I finish what I am presently working on.

Well ponyinabox picked three stories from all the entries from a few months back... still think I didn't make it but here's to hoping... hmm... oh, right. I'll be putting out "Sidelined" here for people to take a look at it... then maybe I'll expand it to a 1000 to 1200 words just to add some content I didn't put in the first time while trying to keep to an 800 word minimum. Stay tuned for that.

Well, updates coming shortly! Stay tuned!

Eclipse - Male pegasus, Captain of the Lunar Royal Guard (at night his pegasi wings morph into bat wings and vice versa due to an enchanted hoof bracer w/ Luna's cutie mark)
Donut Joe

Locations
Throughout Canterlot Castle, later Canterlot town

(*) - Celestia and Luna walking about Canterlot in altered forms so as not to draw attention to themselves (but forget to remove their accessories). Celestia = Twilight Sparkle and Luna = Fluttershy

Celestia (narrator)
"Every day is much like the next. One day after another, rolling ever onwards without pause."

SFX Twilight Sparkle (alarm sphere set next to Celestia's bed, repeats until turned off)
"Rise and shine, Princess Celestia! Its time to raise the sun!"

Celestia (weak chuckle)

Luna
"How surely downtrodden your pupil would be if she ever finds out that the sun is the one that raises Celestia daily."

Celestia (waking up)
"So says the pony that does not raise the moon." (yawns)

"Shouldnt you be sleeping?"

Luna (smug)
"I am."

SFX Vhhhiiirrrrlll (magic spell wavering)

Celestia
"Dream walking, huh? Am I really that interesting to hang around with?"

Luna (cheery)
"Im making waffles."

Celestia
"Fancy that."

SFX Ting (alarm turned off)
SFX Walking

Rising Dawn (cheerful)
"Good morning Princess Celestia, Princess Luna... shouldnt you be..."

Celestia
"That is exactly what I said to her."

Luna
"And I am sleeping, remember?"

SFX Magic (levitation)

Eclipse
"Shouldnt you be resting Milady Luna?"

Luna
"I am sleeping, Captain Eclipse." (SFX Magic Levitation) "Waffles."

Eclipse
"Thank you." (SFX sit) "Night watch went mostly without incident."

Celestia
"Mostly?"

Luna
"Your nephew Blueblood. Nothing to worry your mane over. Just your nephew's usual antics."

Celestia
"He's your nephew too, you know."

Luna
"One of the perks of being the being formerly known as Nightmare Moon, I wasnt around when you were adopting snobbish unicorn relatives."

Celestia
"They are not snobbish. Blueblood is... an exception."

Luna
"So... is this Grand Galloping Gala you made while I was gone a thinly veiled family reunion for all your adopted snobby unicorn brothers and sisters? Mother always thought you were too obsessed with snobby rich ponies."

Celestia (irritated)
"She did not!" (pause quieter voice) "And... well kinda."

Luna
"And you wonder why I avoided going."

Celestia (smug)
"You just hate fancy dress up parties. Mother always said you were a colt at heart."

SFX Magic levitation

Luna (indignant)
"Eat your "breakfast", sister."

Rising Dawn (curious tone)
"Uh... isnt that... dessert?"

Eclipse (confused)
"Chocolate waffles buried in whipped cream and cocoa syrup?"

Luna (smug)
"Well dear Captains of the Guard, your beloved ruler has a bit of a sweet hoof..."

Celestia (irritated)
"So says the chubby pony who keeps eating my desserts!"

Luna
"Relax, sugar addicted sister..."

Celestia ("Hmph!")

Luna
"I already said I will replace your dessert did I not? Fear not, big sister, I will... why are you all staring at me?"

Celestia (disbelief)
"You can eat while using that spell?"

Luna
"Not really. Im just eating for the taste... good thing the spell disintegrates whatever I eat..."

Celestia
"I am not cleaning up after you."

SFX Ponies walking about, clock ticking.

Celestia
"Any royal business needing attending to?"

Royal Guard member
"No your highness."

Celestia (upbeat)
"Well then... permission to wander off and attend to Royal Matters elsewhere?"

Royal Guard (confused)
"Your Highness?"

Celestia
"I am most certain anypony can locate us in case of emergency so..." (cheery) "...I hereby give the Throne Room Guards an unexpected day off. May I have permission to loiter freely?"

Royal Guard (shocked)
"O-o-of c-c-course! Th-thank you, your highness!"

Celestia (cheery)
"See you tomorrow, Wintergreen. Say hi to the wife for me."

SFX Silence in background (scene transition)

Luna (narrator voice)
"How truly disappointed your most faithful student would be to see her beloved mentor occasionally dabble in fits of truancy."

SFX Canterlot streets (ponies walking and talking in background)

Celestia
"Would it surprise you to learn that I occasionally, on days like this, spirited my pupil away from her books for a little break from routine?"

Luna
"Honestly? Yes. Twilight Sparkle to me seems to be a slave to the comforts of routine and schedule... much like yourself."

Celestia (defensive)
"I am not so rigid."

Luna
"Sister, with the exception of the occasional outburst your very exsistence rotates perfectly around your daily routine. Without fail, and without deviation."

Few second silence

Celestia (low)
"Day in, day out."

Luna
"Sister?"

SFX Sit

Celestia
"That's your big sister in a friendship letter, right? Day in, and day out, a mass of routine and schedule and protocol... kinda sad, really."

SFX Sit

Luna
"It is expected of you, dear sister, as the ruler of Equestria."

Celestia
"We both rule Equestria, yet you always make time for yourself..." (chuckles) "I kinda envy you... you dont act your age sometimes."

Luna
"Yes I do. I slept for a thousand years, remember? Im still young despite the passage of time... but were supposed to be talking about you..."

SFX Stand

Luna
"Thou shall cometh with me"

Celestia
"Wh--?"

SFX Stand Walking

Celestia
"What's with the old dialect?"

Luna
"Nothing. I just do it sometimes to mess with ponies heads... here we are."

Door chimes (Donut Joes)

Joe
"Hello, ladies! Your orders will be ready shortly."

Luna
"Thank you. A dozen pony hooves please."

Joe
"Got a batch fresh from the oven, your highnesses!"

Luna
"Thank you."

SFX Walk a few steps, sit

Luna
"Didnt you once tell Twilight not to stress about deadlines?"

Celestia
"More or less, but what... oooohhh... I see..."

Luna
"She says she sees, but..."

Celestia
"Sometimes I need to stop, catch my breath, and make time for something other than work. I think Ill start tomorrow by having an informal pleasant lunch with my guards in the garden."

Luna
"Every little bit helps... by the way..." (*) "...was this really your best idea for a disguise?"

Celestia
"Whats wrong with this?"

Luna
"...never mind..."

End

Fiction Update November 25th 2012

Well... finally ponyinabox put out word in their second News From The Box that three stories were picked for production... I think I lost but still waiting for that finality... oh well. Better luck next time.

Presently getting ready to post up a few Celestia/Luna minis (Day In Day Out and Luna Before You Celestia)... should be out soon  (first draft). In the meantime I am thinking of submitting again to ponyinabox... soon... well maybe the start of 2013... did I mention that yet? Probably.

Well, back to writing.

Thursday, October 25, 2012

Update October 24th 2012

Well I got the second part of The Next Do up here, all archived and everything. Next up I'll work on a few more one shots before I go back to do part 3... so that is coming soon.

In the meantime? Well... just passed the 30 day milestone. That means over 30 days passed since my first submission to ponyinabox... and 30 days passed since I heard from them so... well, all I can really be is optimistic so... at least I haven't got a rejection notice... yet... but I am sure that might be coming somewhere down the line. Oh well. At least I can prepare for the next possible opportunity. At least there's that.

Well back to writing. See you next update.

(*) - Flashback dialogue going through Dashing's mind

Dashing
(*) "I could have saved you a step if you came to me first. That's not the Sapphire Stone."

(pause)

Dashing
(*) "Yes mother did find it, as stated in her first book, but in the end it was deemed too dangerous for public display after the incident with Ahizuhtl, so an exact replica was made for public display, and the real one was stored away in Canterlot Castle for safe keeping... I believe your teacher Princess Celestia would be of more assistance than me..."

Daring Do (audio recording) (loud)
"Hi there!"

Dashing (shocked)
"Gah!"

Daring Do (recording) (excited)
"You little explorers ready for adventure? Pick up your magical guide and welcome to the world of archeology! Dont forget to ask your parents to buy y..."

SFX Spell recording turning off

Dashing (irritated)
"Way to go, mom. All the charm and pony emotion of a potion peddler."

Masara
"Your mother loves children, Dashing. She wanted her wing of the museum to..."

Dashing (tempered tone)
"...spark creativity and a thirst for knowledge through adventure and fun. Yes, I got all that first hand, thank you so very much Headmaster."

SFX hoofsteps (same as before)

Masara
"How's the material on the changelings coming along?"

Dashing
"Ponderously slow. Or should I just stick to what I know and tell my class bawdy tales of the filly fooler who almost married a changeling."

Masra
"Jade fooled us all, Dashing. But she's not the reason I want you teaching this..."

Dashing (tempered tone)
"Yes, yes, I know. Orders from on high from Celestia herself... as for being fooled..."

SFX Glass case opening
SFX Object being put down (levitation stops)

Donut Joe
"What's up? You look abit like something the cat refused to drag in."

Dashing
"That bad, huh?"

Donut Joe
"Wanna talk about it?"

Dashing (resigned tone)
"I would if I could, believe me, but I honestly dont know where to even start."

Donut Joe
"Muffins are going to take awhile."

Dashing
"Why do you even make muffins in the first place?"

Donut Joe
"You ever try to tell a pregnant mare you only sell donuts?"

Dashing
"Point taken."

SFX Pot perculating, taken off and poured.

Donut Joe
"Chocolate, two whips and baby marshes."

Dashing
"Thanks." (sip) "Maybe its just not my night, Joe. Mom, Jade, the Sapphire Stone..."

Donut Joe
"The Sapphire Stone? Isnt that one of Daring's accomplishments?"

Dashing
"Her seventh. Dont tell that to her ravenous pony fans though. Life, after all, began with the Sapphire Stone."

Donut Joe
"Why is that?"

Dashing
"Because her previous finds pre Sapphire Stone were all warm ups... and mind you if she could ever write about every adventure you'd need a library just for that."

Donut Joe
"Ha! Saving something for a rainy day?"

Dashing
"Not entirely by choice. Quite a few are sealed. Apparently it would be highly embarrasing to some government, organization or individual if some of her antics came to light... and mind you she watches over all these agreements like a griffon, fully intending to publish the second even one lapses."

Donut Joe
"That sounds... a bit morbid."

Dashing
"You dont know the half of it..." (sip) '...I heard she was responsible for the nutrient rich volcanic soil used in the south lawn of the university... by kinda making a volcano erupt on the south lawn, Something about a Diamond Dog relic and a curse and something like that... but thats mom.

Dashing
"Diamond Dogs?"

Eclipse
"Right, but how..."

Dashing
"They're right behind you... here..."

SFX Magic (levitation)

Dashing
"...take the muffins to safety. And send Royal Guard to arrest these dogs once I am done."

Eclipse
"Right!"

SFX Wings flapping, flying off

"I'm not. I'm sleeping in a public library."

Octavia (deadpan)
"...before we leave be sure to thank the purple unicorn for not having you arrested for trespassing."

Vinyl Scratch
"Yup."

Octavia (esaperated)
"Seriously??"

Vinyl Scratch
"eeyup."

Octavia (deadpan)
"I'll never hear the end of this unless I relent, won't I."

Fin

Fixed!

OK, finally figured out how to fix the audio drama scripts. So far fixed The Book Fort of Time and Space, and will slowly work on the others over the weekend. Meanwhile writing a new one now but won't post until all the rest are fixed so stay tuned, I'll update as scripts are fixed.

The Next Do Part 1 and Filly Quest is now fixed. Added Wub It In (and as you can see it went up correctly first time out, yay!)

Working on next script right now. Stay tuned for updates!

What a bother (how the dramas post as opposed to how they look for editing)

For some reason when I go to edit the drama scripts they're laid out correctly, but when I look at them on the blog they're all meshed together horribly... I have no idea what it is I am doing wrong but I'm working on it right now... stay tuned for updates.

Vinyl Scratch
"Yo doc!"

Octavia (hushed)
"Professor!" (normal) "Good evening, Professor Do..."

Vinyl Scratch
"Your that mare with all those books written about her, right? You look alot more boring in person."

Octavia (irritated)
"Vinyl!"

Dashing Do
"Professor Dashing Do. The books were written about my mother, Daring Do. Now, can I help you with something, ...or are you just looking for somepony to make fun of after Blueblood. Dont care, by the way, thought you should know."

Vinyl Scratch (smug)
"Is it easy to be so dull, or do you actually work at..."

SFX thump (hit)

Vinyl Scratch
"ouch"

SFX package dropping on table

Octavia
"The mailmare accidentally delivered this to K-COLT earlier..."

Vinyl Scratch
"And I was soooo going to read it on air and everything since Soarin was boring and..." (loud) "Octi!" 

Octavia (irritated)
"We are leaving now!" (apologetic) "So sorry to have bothered you."

SFX Walking skidding (Vinyl being pushed)

Vinyl Scratch (loud)
"Come by the station! I want to mock you mercilessly on live ra..."

SFX door slam

Vinyl Scratch (muffled whining)
"Octi!"

Octavia (muffled irritated)
"Honestly Vinyl! Cant you behave..."

Vinyl Scratch (muffled)
"Where's the fun in that..."

Several seconds silence

Dashing
"Ponies these days... now where was I."

SFX Magic (Levitation)
SFX Note Writing sound effect through narrative text. Writing stops at (*) prompt. (**) tink tink tink (quill tip tapping against ink jar clearing excess, few second pause before tinking).

Dashing (Narrative)
"Little is known of the Changeling nation past urban myth and wild speculation..." (*) "The Changelings first appear in Equestria history during the first age of Discord, but this is meaningless as older texts hint at a secretive race..." (*) (**) "...that lived in the lands of the Changelings dating back..." (SFX sniff sniff sniff) "...to the days of Equestria's founding..."

SFX soft hoofsteps

Dashing
"Improved your blueberry muffin recipe?"

Ditzy (sheepish)
"Yeah... how did..."

SFX Tink

Dashing
"You cant hide the smell of your baking."

SFX Clank (levitation off)

Dashing
"Thank you."

Ditzy
"All nighter?"

Dashing
"Afraid so. Interest in Changelings is through the roof following the attempted invasion so the university wants me to address the history of the Changelings in class, even if we know more about dragons than we do Changelings."

SFX Magic (levitation)

Dashing (nom nom then talk)
"Definitely more blueberries in this recipe..."

SFX Levitation stops

Ditzy
"Your not happy, are you."

Dashing
"Huh? No, no, I love the muffin! I have some cocoa on the stove cooking up..."

Ditzy
"I mean about the class change."

Dashing (exhale of breath, controlled frustration)
"No. I should be teaching my class about pre Equestria Diamond Dog civilization but no, instead I have to dig through these poorly written hack job books disguised as fact about a race nobody knows about... this isn't the kind of class I want to run, full of myth and rumor without any facts backing them."

Ditzy
"Want to go on a field trip?"

Silence
SFX Kettle whistling (cocoa)

Dashing
"Water's done..."

SFX Magic (levitation)

Dashing
"Cocoa?"

Ditzy
"Don't change the subject. Your mother..."

Dashing (sullen)
"Would have flew off half cocked on any quest if only to avoid actually teaching her class."

SFX Kettle clinking back down
SFX Clink clink clink (stirring)

Dashing (sullen)
"By the way thanks for reminding me again how I continously fail to live up to mother's legacy. Thanks lots." 

Ditzy (sad)
"Don't be like that, Dashing..."

Dashing (sullen)
"Won't ever be as good as mother, not a good adventurer, not as fun or spontaneous as mother, can't even fly... yeah I am a walking talking embodiment of everything mother isn't... how utterly special." (sip sip)

Ditzy (sad)
"I didn't mean it like that."

Dashing
"I know. I know. Sorry." (pat pat) "Its always a sore point for me." (sip sip) "It doesn't matter anyway since this isn't the kind of conundrum a field trip alone can solve. It'll take alot of research, and dialogue between us and the Changeling nation."

Ditzy
"I..." (long dragging out of I) "...don't think they want to be friends."

Dashing
"So no inviting Changelings over for dinner." (sip sip) "Well that's hours of learning how to cook Europony style wasted. And to think I had the good china unpacked and everything." (sip sip) "Calling it a night?"

Ditzy
"Yeah. Thought I'd make myself one more batch of muffins and call it a night. Are you..."

Dashing
"I'll be fine. Just want to write some more then fall asleep on the couch. See you tomorrow..."

Ditzy
"Night."

"Well if I knew company was coming I would have..." (sniff sniff)

SFX Magic (levitation)
SFX clink clink (plates)

Dashing
"She left me the batch she made... I'll buy her breakfast tomorrow..."

SFX Knock knock knock

Dashing (loud)
"Feel free to let yourself out of the magic blue box anytime, Twilight!"

SFX Door opens

Dashing
"No need to be so formal with me. Please, help yourselves."

Twilight
"Thank you. Is it alright..."

Dashing
"He's going to come out anyway so lets get the awkward part over with... hello Doctor."

Doctor (awkward)
"Ahh... yes... maybe our first meeting wasn't exactly..."

Dashing
"Don't worry about it. Everypony compares me to my mom eventually. Even my best friends."

Doctor (hesitant)
"You seem rather busy... maybe..."

Dashing
"Sit. Eat. Drink."

SFX Magic (levitation)
SFX Liquid pouring

Dashing
"You didnt drop by just to avail yourself of my company so... why are you really here?"

Twilight
"Straight to the point as always, professor." (levitation sip) "Just like when I took your class that year." 

Doctor
"Really? You never struck me as a closet archeologist."

Dashing
"That's because she wasnt. One year I found myself without an archeology class to teach so on the Princess' insistence I taught History of Magic at her school for gifted unicorns..." (sip) "And thats how I first met Twilight here."

Twilight
"Feels like it was only yesterday."

Dashing
"And yet it wasnt... Anyway...Twilight...?"

Twilight (apologetic)
"Oh. Right. Sorry."

SFX Magic (levitation)

"Of course."

Dashing
"Here..." (flips book about) "Notice the resemblance between this ancient alien deity and the stone."

Twilight
"The resemblance is remarkable, but what..."

Dashing
"Let's see... according to this hue mon book on ancient deities the Doctor gave me, this is Anapa, pronouced Anubis in Greek, the jackal headed son of Nephthys and Set... lovely couple... associated with mummification and the afvterlife... in order words an hue mon deity of death."

Twilight
"Oh my."

Present Writing Habit : Audio Drama Scripts

It has been a long long time since I last wrote anything in a fiction sense, but recently I have been motivated to write audio drama scripts for My Little Pony Friendship is Magic... go figure. Presently I am writing script submissions for one of the three large audio drama makers, ponyinabox productions... sadly they don't have a usual submission spot for writers so I have to wait for the occasional event when writers can submit... still, I can store away and archive all the stories I write as I wait for the next oppertunity. Still waiting on my first entry, Sidelined, and it's fate. Once I know its fate I'll post it here, and perhaps the story as well. In the meantime I'll be posting fresh dramas (minis) as I write them... until I have a chance to submit them somewhere... Oh well. At least I'm writing again.

Doctor (pleased)

Filly Twilight (pleased)
"Great! Because it's your turn!"

Doctor
"...what..."

Filly Twilight
"No password no entry Doctor."

Doctor
"I am pretty sure that is a pretty long password..."

Filly Twilight (irritated)

"It must be hard for you... when I am gone."

Spike (upbeat)
"What? No, no, I'm good! Got lots to do everyday, running the library, keeping everything going! I dont even have time to..."

Filly Twilight (soft soothing voice)
"You dont need to spare my feelings. Especially since I have been so inconsiderate of your feelings."

Spike (emotional)
"No! No! You're not..."

Filly Twilight (soft voice)
"I am gone for days at a time, and when I am back I am still with the Doctor helping him with whatever... and you my faithful patient number one assistant..." (pause) "You shouldnt have to feel as if your losing me to the doctor."

Doctor
"Wait its not like that!"

Spike (angry)
"Its exactly like that!" (pause) "Each and every day I say to myself "Patience, Spike! Patience! One day everything will be back to the way it was, and you'll have Twilight back..." (sad) "But that was selfish of me... thinking only of myself... Twilight deserves to be happy even if... I am not..."

Filly Twilight (sad)
"You silly dragon! You do make me happy! You are my number one assistant... and my first friend..."

Filly Twilight (cheery)
"And sunny days! Cookies were my favorite..." (pause) "...I think I understand now."

Doctor
"Understand what?"

Filly Twilight
"Why I am a filly again. How could I have been so blind to Spike's feeling... I guess I needed a wake up call and becoming a filly again helped... since I felt the exact same fears Spike did when Shining Armor joined the Royal Guard... and I felt I was losing him..." (levitation munching) "Well I am definitely going to need some aromatherapy tonight for sleep."

Spike
"Aroma what?"

Doctor
"Aromatherapy. See all these books? Theyre Twilight's."

Spike (deadpan)
"You dont say."

SFX Walking

Doctor
"Well she got me to reading and one book was all about the restorative power of aromatherapy, unfortunately here in Equestria its all still a do it yourself industry... cant just pop down to the corner mart for a candle and a few bags of jelly babies... wait not babies...foals? Yeah itd be Jelly Foals... anyway whipping up a quick candle is deceptive easy... mum will be so happy I learned a useless skill after nine hundred years... and according to this book this flower is good for lifting one's spirits... why are you looking at me..." 

SFX Magic (Levitation)

Doctor
"Thats what I said..."

Spike
"Be careful to NOT confuse the plant with Poison Joke as the two are nearly identical."

Doctor
"Uh... this is Poison Joke?"

Spike / Filly Twilight (deadpan)
"Yes."

Doctor
"So I did a bad thing... right?"

Spike / Filly Twilight (deadpan)
"Yes."

Doctor
"So I should dispose of the lot and get that rhyming zebra..."

Spike / Filly Twilight (deadpan)
"Zecora. Yes."

Doctor
"Right. Well... I'll just get to it then... be right back..."

SFX Running

Filly Twilight
