    Searching For A Story

    Greetings to those who may be reading this,

    I'm looking for a story that I read very early into my being on this site. I cannot, for the life of me, remember the title but I remember enjoying it a lot. My many attempts at searching for it have come up dry.

    Another Dream Come True

    Apart from unexpectedly getting one thousand subscribers on YouTube this week, my joke video made it to the front page of My Little Brony.

    The Manliness Is Unparalleled

    This has been a good past seven days.

    Finally!

    Today I came home from work and noticed this:

    This was my reaction:

    Sleep Deprived Me thinks of ways to make mundane occurrences seem epic...

    The other day, I woke up feeling like I hadn't ever really gone to sleep. That seems to be happening to me a lot lately. I hope Stephen's situation isn't rubbing off on me. When this happens, it usually means my brain turned off at some point during the night but I never went to sleep. Then I found this as my Facebook status:

Brawny Buck of Canterlot's Whacky Misadventures · 1:30pm Jul 17th, 2013

So it took nearly two months of trying after relatively steady releases but I've finally got out a new chapter to Dreamquestria.
I was taken up an awful lot by things that are not FiMfiction related. So at least it's not from my being lazy. I put in a lot of hard work so I could go to a couple of conventions.

I started with a local one called the Grand Brony Gala. It's size was more like a mega meetup but it ran more like a convention. It was my first convention ever and I simply had no idea what to do with myself. So I defaulted to professional photographer mode. Here is the result:

(If you can't see it and care enough, let me know.)

Then there was Everfree Northwest. That was plain awesome. There are almost no words. I met up with a couple of my fellow reviewers. I conversed with some of my favorite musicians. I got pictures with a couple of my favorite podcasters, ACRacebest and Solrac. The Ponystock concerts were awesome. I was able to sit myself back and enjoy the convention sans-DSLR, at least a little bit. And then went doubly camera ballistic at the concerts.

I was also bound and determined to get my first animated dramatic reading done before these conventions. When I wasn't at work, I was picking away at this like nobody's business. I think it came out relatively well given the limitations I have with not only technology but also editing ability. I ended up having to teach myself a lot about video and audio editing. Here's the result of that:

Then Equestria Girls came out in my area. I was quite nervous about it given that most people seemed to be liking it. Since season 3, I had been experiencing a pattern where I love everything that most other people hate (King Sombra, most of season 3) and then everyone loves everything that I hate (Magical Mystery Cure). But I went with the local meetup group and I'm glad to say I liked it a lot more than I thought I would.

Just to make sure I wasn't watching the movie with "theater goggles", I watched a camera rip of it when I got home and had all the same issues with it that I did in the theater, but still enjoyed it just as much. Hopefully I'll get a review of it on my channel sometime soon.

So then at long last, with all that behind me, I could finally focus on getting the next chapter out. Once everything else was done, I uploaded it. Then suddenly this happened:

Can't say I saw that coming at all. But now I'm almost certain that the content of the feature box is selected randomly. I did not think I had enough viewership for that. It is a pleasant surprise though. Maybe my readership will go up? I don't know. But maybe now I should make more attempts to fix that cruddy description I have for it.
