A chapter is not out yet, but keep your eyes peeled, though.

Shadows Over Equestria is my upcoming My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fanfiction. It's a storyline I've been devising for awhile now (dare I say perhaps a year or a bit over that? Even I don't remember exactly). Even then, there are still some things I need to develop or come to a final conclusion of. Yeah, if you want loving effort put into something, it sometimes takes awhile. ;P Or, you like that time to think more on or it takes until near last minute to be sure of a path to a story, or the elements and details of.

This picture is more or less the cover, and it in itself took quite a bit of time to finish. It's hard to say how long it took accurately, since I did fractions of it off and on throughout the process of a few days, but it did take time.

Before anyone asks - yes. This is a Dislestia fanfiction. Celestia and Discord have an important role to the story, but so do the mane six. And Luna (I REALLY wish I put her in this cover somehow, but if I did, it would have gotten too crowded). I would call this story an adventure/drama, if not also a romance (though I think it leans a bit more in drama). If you want a vague enough idea, think of it as a "Mane Six/Celestia/Discord journey story". Yes, they all stick together. XD Why only them will unveil as the story is posted/progresses. The first chapter is more or less roughly halfway completed so far, so it should hopefully be done soon enough; after a couple read throughs and revises.
The only problem is, it's been almost an age since I truly dedicated a substantial effort of writing and thinking to a story. So, yeah... you have that sensation of the brain feeling a little dusty or even perhaps out of practice. More of a returning to habit thing to me, than anything.

A lot of blood and sweat was put into this picture. It was a special idea/project, as of late. And the title/visual edits will hopefully veer any theft attempts. But, seriously, please don't try stealing this. It took such time and effort. I didn't think I'd be able to do it, but I did it, which makes it all the more rewarding. :)

Also, what do you think of the title? I've had quite a few juggling, but this is the first one I am pushing with. For some reason, I get this vibe that I may change it at some point (I don't want to, though. More or less wondering if it's truly the perfect or appropriate title).

Other Pictures I Did, That Tie to This Story (Not too many)

I actually colored this picture, if anyone is wondering. Though, my boyfriend mattwilson83 was there as I did it, and helped me a lot in Photoshop (pointers and techniques, along with helping drop any annoyance I had with the picture), as I have hardly had much skill built in using the software, and he does. Sometimes, he demonstrated and went ahead with a few things. I have always wanted to feel more fully experienced and capable with softwares like Photoshop, and there was no better time to try and practice than now. :D Thanks so much, hun :glomp: ~ :heart:
