The Knife’s Edge

The other day I got a message from ZanarNaryon telling me they had created a TVTropes page for To Serve In Hell. Now, TVTropes can be a dangerous place to start reading, unless you have a few hours to spend getting lost in it. But if you want to check it out, please

Not with a bang, but a whimper

Hey friends.
I didn’t used to believe in writer’s block as such. I always thought the phenomenon was a manifestation of something else in a person’s life. I also thought the cure for it was just to sit down and write any garbage you can. Editing should never mix with drafting, and if you can get yourself to stop editing, you’ll achieve more and better drafting—which can then be edited.

Ping 2: Live and In Person

Almost exactly 2.5 years ago, my family and I bought tickets to Whinny City Pony Con 2020. Of course there was no such con, at least not in a physical capacity. But good egg that he is, Charlie Worthley (con organizer extraordinaire) has made it effortless to transfer our tickets from that long-ago time to right now, despite all that’s transpired between.

Ping

I live.
Time's gotten away from me.
2020 got weird. My 2021 started with an honest effort to get back to normal. But after I started getting treated for depression, I began to see more and more ways to improve things in my daily and family life that hadn't fit together very well in years. Including some of the core issues that had pointed me in the direction of MLP in the first place.

Artistic Expression

It's been too long. Things are great. Really, really great. Not so much for writing, but for different modes of expression and life.

What is the opposite of free-fall? · 4:59am Oct 15th, 2015

Whatever it is, it kind of seems like The Counselor is doing that right now...

Thank you so much for reading it, faving it, upvoting it, or whatever wonderful thing you've done to end up seeing this. For better or worse, I usually try to thank everyone who faves a story or follows... but that is not feasible this time around. As problems go, this is a good one.

Other arbitrary milestones this week:
(1) 50 followers.
(2) First story to cross 100 upvotes and 1000 views (at basically the same time): Daring Do and the Goggles of Shipping
(3) First story to get "hot" (however briefly): The Counselor

You people are awesome!

Thank us? Sir! Truly it's because you have been studying the Turkish Esspresso blend of writing that has allowed you to defy gravity. Allow me to provide you with an appropriate song!
