The purpose of a story is that it's a story. It can be more, but it can never be less.

    Friendship is Magic: the Musical

    So I've been trying to find ways out of my recent funk, and this was one of the most recent attempts. I thoroughly enjoyed the freshman season of Hazbin Hotel, particularly the outstanding musical numbers and how the whole season could, with just a few small modifications, be made into a Broadway style stage musical.

    So I figured hell, why not do the same with Friendship is Magic?

    Our Last Anniversary

    I've been radio silent on social media since my now ex-wife and I announced our split. A few days ago, I was moved to write this and post it on Facebook. Figured I might as well post it here as well.

    Folks say it's pretty good.

    State of the Author 2023

    It's bad.

    Real bad.

    So it should come as no surprise that my wife and I are divorcing. We're having to take it slow because she's so close to the end of her degree and I want her to be in a good place to help take care of our boys. We're still co-habitating, still friends.

The Archives Will Soon Be Open · 4:28am Nov 27th, 2016

So it's been (checks watch) about two weeks since I updated 'the Wicker Mare' and nine days until the launch of 'Grogar 2.' I'm hard at work, but things have been complicated.

My rambunctious dog knocked a glass of tea onto my laptop, and despite my best efforts she seems to be down for the count. Thankfully, I've learned my lesson and started saving stuff onto an external. Nothing of value was lost this time.

Here's where the cool part comes in.

My friend informed me of a device they have in their possession that will allow me to take the hard-drives from my previous laptops and extract the text files. Suddenly, I have access to stories and outlines that might have been lost.

There's stuff in there I never even told any of you about.

Already I've stumbled on my very first MLP Fanfic Outline, the bedrock on which all of this is built. Expect to see that as a Failed Fic very soon.

Most exciting is a short I banged out one night in the space of a few hours... the same night that particular laptop bit the dust.

Folks, that story is the first one I wrote that explored the idea of Rarity being Sweetie Belle's mother.

And it's a Christmas story.

I'm going to give it another look-see when I get the chance, maybe update it a little (Crescendo didn't exist when I wrote it.) and then maybe publish it as an AU sequel to 'Dear Sweetie Belle.'

This is all very exciting, but back to work.

Krampusnacht draws near.

Dear Sweetie Belle was the best [iirc]. Seeing a christmasy version from an earlier design would be amazing :D.
