The “Crack Pairing Circleship Collab” (as Golden Vision dubbed it—I prefer just the latter half) was a little idea birthed in a Skype chat for some folks who’d gone to BronyCon. Essentially, we composed a list of My Little Pony characters (everyone from the Mane 6 to Crackle and then some) and rolled dice. The first person rolled twice, for two characters, and had to write a story from the perspective of the first character wherein he or she is shipped—romantically or just friendshipping—with

It's been over six months since I've put out either a new story or an update to an existing one, and that's pretty crappy of me. Reasons range across everything from college to lack of motivation to an increase in group work here on the site—I administrate two reviewing groups (one of which I might even be taking the reigns on soon), and just joined a third on top of them. I've been writing when I can (next chapter of To Glimpse a Wider World, a continuation of Plainswalker, a continuation of

Reviews Round 16

I feel like I can't adequately express how awesome I think this is.

Like…

Woo!

Never thought A Hyena's Laugh would net me much of anything in the way of recognition. Definitely wishing I'd have worked harder on the technical aspects of the poem, now…

But still!

Woo!

Alright, first, I'll say that I've put out another contest entry for the WBA (I can see myself doing a lot of these). It's called Gout of Flame, and it's essentially my answer to the question "What sorts of things might a hero to dragons—a race of people that value greed and isolation—fight for?", the prompt for this month having been to write about a hero

Wrote a new story, though it's more a framed poem. Fairly short, and a touch dark, but you might like it. It's an entry for the World-Building Alliance's January writing contest.

Go see Cloud Atlas.

Chapter 4 is out, thankfully. Sorry once more about the wait, but who isn't busy? Also, I was quite taken with an idea for another story; a five-chapter (planned, at least) first-person story starring Rarity, alongside Pinkie. So some of my time has been going to writing that. I can't say when it'll be finished, but I just thought I'd let you know.

Ahhh, my god... Just got back my second EQD pre-reader thingamajig for Wider World...

I mean...

Jesus.

I'm sorry for the wait, if you've been waiting. School, games, life, and all that. Chapter four is finished, and once even one editor goes through it, I'll put it up. The first three chapters have been reworked in a number of ways, as detailed in my previous update, and have been up on the site in their edited forms for at least half a week now. Again, you don't have to re-read them, as the plot hasn't changed. They're better now, though. I promise.

Chapter four will take a little while to be released. Despite the fact that college is now back in full swing, I've still been spending free time on the story. The time that's being spent, though, is going towards reworking the first three chapters. Cheezesauce, a fellow member of SALT, has been working with me on the story. There'll be a lot of small changes, but a few bigger ones. One of the more
