    How Many Times Does Trixie Actually Say "I"?

    One of Trixie's best-known traits in the fandom is that she speaks in the third person all the time. But does she really? Turns out, no one has ever counted the times she says "I." Until now...

Quick Update · 1:50am Apr 24th, 2017

Howdy folks! Just letting you know I'm doing okay and updates should resume before too much longer. After my grandpa's passing, I just needed a little bit longer to deal with it. He was a great guy, and I loved him a lot, and I'm really going to miss him. On that note, thanks to everyone who left a nice comment on my last blog post. It actually helped me feel a little better. :heart:

Anyway, like I was saying, updates on The Iron Horse will resume soon-ish. If possible, in about a week. Sorry to keep you all waiting.

Oh, one more thing: my story "Freedom Flourishes" recently won the coveted Fluttershy Award in the Everfree Northwest Scribblefest Contest for 2017! It's my first time winning the contest, and I'm pretty happy about it. :yay: Give it a read, if you haven't already!

...Though I still think last year's entry was better. :twilightblush:

You're quite welcome. :)

Congrats on the F-shizzle prize! I think you deserve it.

I'm glad you're doing ok. If you need to take any more time, I don't think anyone would be upset. Just saying. I Know it takes me a while to get over a loss like that (probably mostly due to a severe lack emotional integrity), so just... Don't force yourself, okay?
