Posh Now Exclusively Writes Sappy Slice-of-Life Garbage (and also some story about metul geer) · 7:04am Aug 29th, 2016
As you will no doubt notice from the last three stories I've posted, I've gotten into the habit of writing lame stories about ponies enjoying their everyday lives amidst the occasional terrible thing or existential crisis. Pinching Flurry (GEDDIT ITZ A PUN LOLZ666) is the latest story in this new canon of mine, and it develops a few major themes that I've been trying to incorporate into my writing. Namely:
1. Affectionate banter between people who are emotionally close to one another
2. Diabetes-inducing, saccharine subject matter
3. I don't like Flash Sentry. He's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and he gets everywhere.
If you haven't read it yet, please do so. It's a short little ditty, and it shouldn't take you long. It missed the Writeoff, but I hope it still worms its way into your BLACKENED HEARTS.
Anyway, as implied by this blog's title, I have some PGS news for you: Danny and I finished our first round of revisions on the new chapter. I'm told it wasn't nearly as unsalvageable as the last one, and he only told me to kill myself three times while we were editing it. I'm optimistic that I can have the finished chapter up rrrrelatively soon. Here's a very short excerpt to whet your appetites. Slight spoilers lie in wait, but I guarantee that there's an insight into Twilight's character that you won't want to miss.
The sight of it made Twilight's burgeoning anxiety burgeon even more – there was something disturbing about it, perverted, unnatural. Sweat beaded on her brow, and tickled her skin as it slid down her face. Snake didn't look like he was feeling it; he was stolid as ever as he took in the barn's interior.
God, I wish I were fucking my brother right now instead, Twilight thought.
Well, you know what they say, right?
If you've already crossed that line, you might as well keep on running until border patrol shoots you.
4179337 Who says that?
Besides you.
"God, I wish I were fucking my brother right now instead," Twilight said.
"Same," Snake replied.
4179972 Your comma's on the wrong side of the endquote.
This is why you're not my editor.

Clearly 4179972 also says it. That is masterful line-crossing right there.
