You don't need a vacation, darling. You need a new life.

    On the 23rd of May 2015, magic came to Earth. The event left Scapa stranded, a lone pony on a windswept island on an almost empty planet. The former human survived, and he left behind an unlikely civilization. A Ponies After People story.

    Happy 20th anniversary, Lord of the Rings. Stories, anyone?

    Sweet Celestia I'm old.

    What are your favourite LotR crossover fics here on fimfiction?
    I still remember 'The White Rider', an amazingly written fic that sadly was never finished.

    Anyway. :b

    Next Generation? Oh yes please.

    Must say I loved the movie, it gave a shitty week a wonderful end and I still have the fuzzies 20h later. That hasn't happened in a very, very long time. Watched it with my kids and other half, and we had a blast. Characters are great, the music is good to great and always fits, the jokes landed. References and also themes that will go over most kids' heads but are satisfying and often funny to

    Six years and a day ago...

    ...the one thing happened that made me write my first fimfiction story, Northland.

    TThe Last Pony on Earth
    One day, Earth. The next, everyone is gone and I'm a pony. What the heck is going on?

    Damn.

    I got a a really nice comment on it today and now I feel both happy and sad.
    At my current pace the next chapter of Northland should be out at about May 2025. :ajsleepy:

    The iPone has arrived - and people are spontaneously combusting

    I think the new pones are ridiculously cute, and a smartphone (regardless of how it works - we're officially in the far future after all) with a hoof-indent for better, uhm, handling is peak adorable. That's got to be one of the next inventions in the Track-Switch verse, for mankind's ongoing quest to become more accommodating to ponykind.

    Not dead, new story, lots of coffee

    So, yeah, I'm not dead.
    I had a really, really shitty time that recently ended with me losing my job, which I hated.

    Apparently that sudden freedom was what was needed to lift my writer's block and I wrote a new story, that may or may not be a one-shot.

Maps! · 8:29pm Mar 14th, 2017

And now to something that I should have done right away.

Northland uses a lot of place names that are fun for the author but will be little more than flavour text to most readers. Time to change that! I invested 18£ in the actual paper maps. Because real paper is fun and looks nice when photographed with a bit of care. Also, I wanted these maps anyway for next time I'll visit Orkney. Little by little, I'll equip the chapters with these. Probably make them a little nicer, the red text is hard to read and the lighting needs work.


I love maps. I'm like Dawn with that.


The little town by the sea.


And Scapa's dream.

Using the real maps - its good idea)

I had to look up the stuff on Google maps after. Few chapters to get my bearings. This will make it easier!

Thanks

Hey, the red is really hard to read... but nice to see an idea of the setting.

MAPS! :raritystarry:
Use red (or any other bright color) with black outline, it's much easier to read in such crowded environment as maps.

Thanks all, and I'll produce something much nicer to put into the story. Promise.
Now I have even more stuff to waste time on! :yay:
