Hello again. As I frequently try to do for stuff contest related (especially stuff I participate in), I like to read stories by other entrants, and since I read them, I may as well review them to shine a bit of a spotlight on the contest and hopefully convince some folks to give them a try if they sound like their cup of tea.

I like contests, and competitions in general, even when I don't win, so this is usually pretty good fun.

An enormous milestone that the release of the companion story, Unleash the Magic - Nightmare Night helped it reach. So a huge thank-you to all readers, both old and new! This is easily my most successful story, and one I immensely enjoyed writing. Yes, I have promised additional bonus features and a Shadowbolt-centered sequel, and be assured they are not forgotten. It seems unlikely I can get to the latter this year, but I will aim for late winter or spring of next.

Two characters that, in the process of writing about them, inspired me to pursue my dreams and write in the only way I know how. Authentically. It may sound dramatic, though I’m sure Rarity would approve, but my stories are my soul, and you now hold it in your hands.

I did promise I’d write a retrospective on Bronycon, didn’t I?

ProMonarchyGenius is no more, Brony God lives. I decided to change my name and avatar in both here in Fimfiction and Youtube today and I made all of my Youtube videos Private until forther notice because of the COPPA Scandal that is threatening to ruin the lives of millions of Youtube users. I am still called ProMonarchyGenius in Deviantart soley because I don't want to pay money for Core Membership just to change my name in there. Let's hope and pray that the COPPA debacle does not affect the

So, according to a couple of things I saw in my feed, today is supposedly "First Follower Appreciation Day," where you thank your first follower for pushing that "Watch" button.

I'd like to give a heartfelt shout-out to UniqueSKD for choosing to follow me way back when I was still fresh to Fimfiction. When I asked him why he followed me, this is what he told me (it can be found about 70 pages back on his userpage):

Yeah, that's right, look at that caps lock title. It's garish and eye-catching. You're totally gonna look at this now. So why am I making one of these which I basically never do? Well, that's because I did a thing.

Yes. A thing. Very descriptive.

But first, if you've ever read anything I've written, you probably know I do a bunch of stuff like:

*Write cool OCs
*Give the Crystal Empire a distinct culture
*WORLD BUILD

Hello, hello! It's been snowing like mad here in Minnesota, so much that my hometown had to work extra hard to keep the ski trails groomed for their annual cross-country ski race. It's even snowing again today, and if we get a few more inches, we'll have set the record for the most snowfall in February. Crazy, huh?

Hello all my gremlins, I come to tell you that I've been slacking somewhat on my writing. It's finals and it is much easier to read in what little free time I have than to work hard at non-assignment writing. But this means I have many lovely stories to throw at you that I have had my hand in and the like. Normally I do a shared promo blog for these stories featuring one or two stories, but because I've been slacking blog-wise, I have more to share.

Check them all out below!

Firstly, firstly, firstly… a shout out for Arian Blaze, a friend of mine who's got a tiring week ahead of her but is on 99 followers, so please somebody push her into triple digits!

Secondly, I've been doing a bit of editing and proofreading lately. Mostly little one-shot stories, because I don't have the patience for anything long. I keep a bookshelf of stuff I've edited and proofread here:

Next up, we Have Jontron.

Jim Sterling is a man. And he is quite a man when it comes to video games. Jim Sterling is a YouTuber who does video games on his channel. Oh, you say that isn't interesting? That everyone does that pretty much on YouTube now? Well, you're right, but Jim Sterling has one thing that a lot of those other folks don't have.

He has a stern and nigh unchangeable belief that video games are works of art. And...he's right.

So, after my recent anti-anti-corporate post, I've done some thinking.
I've been working at a supermarket for just over half-a-year now and I've been working through lockdown. And I've been on this site recently and seen this anti-corporate craze and am not impressed by it.
But I have a theory.

My friend has an apartment
A trade
A conventional relationship
With a good girl to settle down with
She's lovely, really
And when we talk he gives me that smile
That smile
That laugh
That says he's grown up
And he's waiting for me to catch up

And it hurts because I have nothing he has.

But then I think
He's the same as he was in highschool
He'd finished growing then
So he thought
His highschool sweetheart
His highschool job
His highschool ambitions

It's no secret that I've not been able to throw words at my follow base recently. Or certainty not anything that wasn't already pre-written months in advance. While this is tough, I'm looking forward to summer and diving back into all my languishing projects, of which there have been more than I would like to admit lately. What I have also been overdue on are a few blog posts. I have art that I have been meaning to show off, but this isn't that blog. Not quite yet. I've still been doing small
