might start doing more experimental-type chapters in what if as responses alongside the usual one-off joke chapters that only take up a few sentences each. with fractures undergoing its (hopefully last) rewrite as it transitions fully into a rough draft state and out of purely a pile of concepts, I wanna play with some styles to see what might work well.

Hey, guys.

Just a thing I've been meaning to do for a bit now:

As you can see, I've taken the liberty of splitting the story up into chapters, 'cause yeah, 20k is a lot to have to either read through all at once or bother remembering/marking where you were every time you close the tab. Too little too late, perhaps, but I figured better late than never still trumps that.

Onward and Upward!

The next two chapters of Ashes have just been posted.

I decided it worked better with the current chapter split up into two pieces, so I did that thing. The last two chapters should still be two chapters, though: one for the climax, and one for the denouement.

It's the sequel you've all been waiting for! I hope you like long reads, because last time I complained about season seven for twenty-five thousand words, and this time I managed to just about double that! Be warned, unmarked spoilers are below the break.

I’ve been thinking about this story idea. An alternate universe where when Luna was banished by celestia, half of Equestria outrage by this decided to secede from Celestia’s rule. Creating a new nation. Ponyville being near the castle of the 2 sisters was made into a independent city-state to keep peace but as the deadline for luna’s banishment nears its end ponyville becomes a political hotspot. Celestia fearing that the city may soon fall into the hands of the separatists sends her protege

Yeah, you heard right. Another commission from last month is finally complete. I'm so glad to see this come to life. The scene many readers have been curious about since its reveal in chapter 27 of Journey To Hearth's Warming. It is here, the transformation from Blood Diamond to Hollow Prince, two beings sharing the same body. I am so hyped to show this. CountessMRose worked hard to bring this piece to life. And it is by far her best work for

Crap, I almost forgot about Mandatory Megadeth this week! I was just sitting down to proof-read when I realised it was Thursday. Speaking of writing, I’m actually ahead of the game right now; I’m deep into the main plot of MLP EG Forever, and like the first half, it’s gotten quite dark--if not more so--and it’s been a little more interesting to write lately.

I want to write.

I open a document.

I write one word.

I daydream the rest of the story.

I close the document for the night.

On the one hoof, Celestia and Luna are the closest thing Equestria has to gods. They control the sun, the moon, and the stars; they're thousands of years old and still in their prime; they're capable of magical feats beyond any unicorn. The only beings who've ever fought either of them to a standstill are each other, Discord, Chrysalis (beefed up on more love than she'd ever known before), and the Smooze (who, under the circumstances, we can file under Discord). What they fought couldn't have

In Approval Voting, one finds the worst candidate and the best candidate and approve all candidates closer to the best candidate then the worst. Unlike Plurality (vote for only 1 candidate). Approval is not subject to Duverger's Law (vote-splitting causing similar candidates to lose. Unlike the false reform of IRV (Instant Runoff Voting), it allows 3rd parties and independents to win.
