    Looking for a regular editor/prereader

    Now that I'm writing again, I thought it would be nice to do something more than post my docs drafts in various Discords begging passers-by to preread at the last minute. Would any of you be interested in editing/prereading for me on a regular basis, or know someone who might be? I would gladly return the favor if you are a writer as well!

    Yearly Contest Schedule

    so i've been running contests for a while now! and at this point i would like to commit to some sort of regular schedule. there are at this point three "main" contests that i would like to keep doing on a yearly basis, and in any particular year i may run at most one more "big" contest, for a total of four:

    so i've given up on the notion of anything like a regular blog schedule! i'll just post these whenever i have news, as a sort of record for any horsewords-related activities i've been getting up to.

of course, now that i've finally decided on my ponysona of Elusive, i was beyond psyched to get such a wonderful Patreon shoutout by Aragón in this brilliant comic:

but now, Shrink Laureate has done me the honor of coloring it! here is the source i was sent before uploading it to FimFic, for posterity:

i have never felt more me on this site before this, and it feels fantastic!

Having said :raritystarry:, I will take this unscheduled opportunity to gripe that I never cared for Trotsworth's R63 names—so in my R63 story (which is something of trans psychological horror, but not really revealed until the ending) I came up with my own. I had difficulty coming up with a good one for Rarity (Elusive was clearly the best of the bunch, though Barb is also great if a bit obvious), so we crowdsourced Curio, which I love.

My personal fave is Shining Armor, whose name didn't end up in the story but will be in an eventual sequel (and her husband is a close second). PresentPerfect's fave was Star Swirl's name, which he wouldn't give away because he wanted people to read the fic.

yeah, "Curio" i find to be the better name for R63 Rarity, but for the vibe i want him to have in order to represent me, "Elusive" fits a lot more! and it along with "Gleaming Shield", "Dusk Shine", "Eris", "Umbra", "Butterscotch", and "Applejack" are just about the only Derpibooru R63 names that i actually like

It's snazzy!

When I saw your ponysona in Aragon's supporter credits, I was happy to see you represented as such a dapper pony.

I love Elusive! Excellent choice. So stylish. :raritywink:

Nice. :)
