Writer, Possessed: part 2

I'm continuing work on this roleplaying story.  Every night for the past few days I've been working well into the early hours of morning.  I must admit that I'm quite pleased with how this thing is turning out.  So far it's surprisingly longer than I expected.  I only hope it will be met with some glimmer of appreciation.  One thing is for certain.  Once this story gets posted, my friends will have a much greater understanding of Moonlight Ballad.

     I'm still questioning my methodology in they way I have decided to create this.  My self-imposed exile from everypony makes  me feel a bit lonely, some nights.  It does however serve to properly condition my mind and my spirit to write as sincerely and evocatively as I can.  I feel like the end will justify the means.

     On the upside of things, I bounced a first draft by one of my writing coaches, who has never been exposed to FiM.  She had this to say: 
The descriptions are wonderful. I'm entirely unfamiliar with this world you're writing about,
yet I feel like I have a pretty complete image in my head.
What a wonderful boost of confidence that gave me-- something I really needed.
