The never-ending stor(e)y

For some reason this is one of the points readers of mine (including off-site ones) have mentioned several times, perhaps because it's one of those Transatlantic divides that isn't all that well known. So: when you're talking about the floors of a building:

Fics I reviewed in April 2024 (and one from late March)

By popular request¹ I'm bringing back this feature. My weekly Ponyfic Roundup reviews are, and will remain, on my off-site blog. It just suits me to do it that way, even if I'd probably have got significantly more of a readership had I written the blogs on Fimfiction as most (all?) other current reviewers do. However, a

State of the Unicorn: Poor

That's poor in both senses, I'm afraid! Though before I say any more, I need to stress that I have a warm, safe home, enough to eat, internet access... the essentials, really.

Off to UK PonyCon! · 7:32pm Oct 11th, 2018

I'll be absent from Fimfiction for a few days now, as I'm going to be at this year's UK PonyCon in Nottingham. It's possible I might look in on this site occasionally, but don't count on it. I'll be back on Monday, but it might be another day or two before I get my, er, unconventional bearings back.

Thanks! I'll see what I can do; I hope not all the anecdotes will involve rain and wind! Those weather pegasi are not in my good books just now...
