If you thought this was about something different, that’s your fault.
Ponies love snow.

First things first, I missed last weeks episode, because I had to work. I looked at a plot summary in case something important happened. It was about fishing... The second-to-last episode of the whole arc is about fishing. Also some build up for this episode.
very happy for the new readers for Family Tree! Just hit 71 likes, we're so close to 100 so it can get added to The Good HiE List group! I'm so so happy for all the kind comments and encouragement I've been receiving! I don't always reply (cause i don't want to be annoying), but I read every single one. Thanks for all the favs, bookshelves, tracking, etc.
Moving into the realm of Original Content, it suddenly seemed like a good idea to not make my symbol be the very much copyrighted infinite-sided die from Gravity Falls, which has been with me and my icons for many, many years. However I didn't want to abandon the association with infinity entirely, and I really do like changing my icon every now and then to showcase my latest obsession, and I also wanted a symbol that could be used for story-covers rather easily...
Almost a not-a-contest entry, or maybe it is (gonna confess that I haven’t read through all of it just yet). . . .
But what I have read through, Penguifyer’s already hitting where it counts. Ponies are musical, we all know that.

So I heard you like Lesbians. And Horses. But only when they are tiny and hard to read! Which is weird, but hey, I don't judge. However, these minuscule homosexual equine tales are not only hard to read, but hard to navigate! But I've come to the rescue dear freakreader!

So Bradel and I drunkwrote a thing last night:
Snogmageddon
[Romance] [Random] [Comedy] [Teen] [Sex]
Rating Scale:
12/10—a complete masterpiece; flawless and outstanding
11/10—Excellent, near-perfect film
And it would be a lie to say I don't feel some anxiety over it. Still some work to do, from writing the Author's Notes to the introductory blog. It's been a six-week journey coming to an end tomorrow... or maybe it's only beginning. How, I can't help but wonder, will it be received? You just never know. It might be a huge hit--you don't see much griffon/human action on site, so this could certainly be filling a neglected niche--or it could end up flopping and doing damage to the main story in
Stanley Kubrick's masterful black comedy satire of the Cold War and the fear of nuclear apocalypse remains just as hilarious and witty as it was more then 50 years ago, remaining one of the best satires ever made.
Happy weekend, everyone! I hope you’re all enjoying yourselves.
I’m working on getting back into the swing of things and getting stuff done.

As y’all probably know, ROBCakeran53 and I hang out a bunch, and as y’all likely also know, SuperTrampoline and I have collabed on a couple of shipfics. Some of y’all (especially Bad Horse) also know that sometimes I’ll fold like a cheap suit when called out on Fimfiction, especially if told not to do something.
Don’t get any ideas; I’m older and wiser now.
While this statistic probably doesn’t exist, I’d put money on the Lauritzen Gardens/Kenefick Park having more locomotive by weight than any other public park in the US. Sweetsong was right to guess you’d put them where traffic on the highway can see them; in fact, they’re on a hill overlooking I-80.
It will launch when I get up on Memorial Day, which is Monday morning (a three day weekend! ). First full editing pass on the ten chapter side story is complete, and a second one is planned. I also need to flesh out the final two chapters by about 1000 more words to bring them up to what I consider ideal clopfic chapter length. That aside, I've already got the story cover prepared:
The rewrite of chapter "Unforgotten" is currently standing at roughly 2,600 words and counting, and I still don't consider it finished. This was originally supposed to be one of the final chapters of Part 2, providing plenty of new information to the readers to ease them into new conflicts in Part 3.
And I guess avoiding straight-up infodumping and instead writing it all into the story arc is just gonna balloon the chapter into the longest one yet in the Pony-Me universe.
I don't think it's completely ready, though. As always, I haven't really done much editing yet, and I'm a little on the tired side. Been taking care of my baby while I've been writing, so there's that. He's such a quiet kid, though. Only really fusses when he's hungry or getting changed.
That being said, it would be a huge help if you guys took a look at it, as I'm most likely going to miss something. Thanks a ton in advance! I really appreciate your input!
