    Golly!:Chinese Translation

    Disharmony Tree has taken the effort to translate my story, Golly! Into Chinese.

    I've read the Chinese version (translated back to English, thank you Google) and I love it.

    I've added a link to the story description for all who are interested.

    Sequel?

    Hm...

    There may be something in the works. Maybe.

    It might have something to do with a certain pesky pegasus filly and her stress-case alicorn rival. Do you guys want to see what happens?

    Discord (Server, Not the Character)

    Howdy, folks.

    I figure since I'm (kind of) back in the writing game, I might as well post a link to my Discord server. Why?

    • It's a way for you to remind me to get off my rear and get to writing
    • It's a way for you to suggest a story idea and ensure I actually see it
    • It's a way to potentially get a sneak-peak at unpublished stories or chapters and provide feedback

    What Should I Do?

    Okay, I have a problem.

    As I mentioned last week, Knighty was able to restore the first story I started writing: The Final Element. It's definitely rough, but it has a special place in my heart, and I actually progressed the story a fair bit before I put it on hiatus for a rewrite. Then I took notes for the rewrite and deleted the original story so I could write the new version.

    Oh my word, it's been 6 years since I had a new featured story.

    THANK YOU so much!

Welcome to My User Page · 8:32am Jan 13th, 2014

Hello!

I used to be called TheSlorg. Now I'm Thunderbug80. I used to pre-read for Equestria Daily, write the Pony Spotlights, and write stories of my own, too.
I have a positive outlook on life, and prefer to steer clear of negativity. If I've reviewed one of your stories, you might have noticed that I try to bring that attitude into pre-reading as well. I feel writers can gain far more from some constructive criticism mixed with a little encouragement than they can from a flat-out rejection.

What else is there to know about me? I'm married with two children, live in Sydney, Australia, am a published poet, and am a knight of the Micro-nation of Vikesland, as well as their Ambassador to Australia. I enjoy gaming of all kinds, watching the NFL, camping, swimming, and of course, writing and reading. I like most types of music, anime, and 80's cartoons. My favorite Mane 6 pony is Applejack, and my favorite background ponies are Lyra and Junebug.

Thanks for stopping by! Come say hello some time.

Thats a really nice overview there Slorgy
BTW are you also going to the concerts at PonyCon AU one each day?

1714084 I probably can't attend the one on Friday, as I'll be arriving very late (probably around 11pm). I might see about attending Saturday's concert, but I haven't paid for it yet.

An ambassador? How cool! Next time my story gets rejected by Equestria Daily, I hope it gets rejected--with positive vibes!--by The Slorg!

I kind of want to learn more about your status as an ambassador...

1714393 It mostly involves telling people "Hey, this nation exists!" and hoping they don't kick me out of wherever I happen to be.

Hahhaha:rainbowlaugh: Vikesland! I found that statement oddly funny. So how exactly dose one become a knight in Vikesland even though you live in Australia:applejackconfused:?

1719491 Because the king is a really awesome guy.
