Thanks, everypony, for taking the 'Rarity's Worst Day Ever' ride with me. I would never have guessed when I started writing about Dash discovering a magic sex toy, back in 'Best Ride Ever', that it would've led to this. Not only have I found an audience I'm weepily proud of that includes some of the best poni-fic writers on the planet, but it turns out I'm just as capable of being creatively fulfilled and saying what I want to say in novels this way, as I was in four previous non-poni novels

A little shout out to a smart pony who's a touchstone for how my Rainbow Dash is doin': Tactical Rainboom is writing about Cloudchaser and Flitter, with elements from Trixieverse, notably some hypothetical 'extra' magic bits (imagine Twi made some for practice or had a few misfires in the process). As always, this doesn't go back into TMB (it's just perfectly plausible that it could) though I wouldn't be surprised if any CC/Flitter

So the end of Rarity's Worst Day Ever is in sight- I hope folks like it, all the plot lines and trajectories are in place and it's strictly down to writing out the final chapters now. They're taking longer because there's less room for error- lots of things have to line up, be foreshadowed, etc. for the finale to come off.

So, I've been running IC crit threads on two chans- a SFW one on ponychan, and one that's specifically for handling clopfictions on FIMchan. I'm real proud of both of them- I've been able to encourage some of the finest pony writers the world's ever seen, often to the point that they burst forth into big public attention. Stonershy ran some of his first erotic writing by me on FIMchan, I've seen a bunch of ponies hit Equestria Daily- it's been really cool!

...so I guess now I'm officially the Overly Calm Narrator Voice of Bronycon ;)

"I repeat, the plastic cover on only one light fixture is burning."

"It is burning calmly". XD

I should be leaving in the early morning on Friday, and returning Monday afternoon.
I've left an offering of MAD RARIJACK CLOP with a double order of kinky, and several cunningly concealed overthinker-bait hooks that reveal big things about future plot developments. No, I won't tell you what they are ;)

So, chapter 11 marks not bankruptcy- but the point in Rarity's Worst Day Ever where I might need to slow up for a bit (though there will be more chapters this month)

Why?

Conventions!

I will be attending Anthrocon, and have a dealer table (Skunktiger Records) at which I'm selling CDs (including a bootleg of selections from my Daily Music blog in CD-quality) and costume tails (typically wolf and fox tails) of really high quality.

Pony Clop Haiku

Pony clop haiku?
This DEMANDED to exist.
Thank you, tumblr gods!

Writers gather round
This could be a lot of fun
If you're kind of weird

Do your deadly worst!
Stallions pale to see our work
Hide under the bed

Pony Clop Haiku
Literary? Silly? Quaint?
WE CAN FAP TO THIS

I've gone and changed a few details in Rarity's Worst Day Ever, as far back as 'Avalanche', again. Here's why...

This is a proud day for th' old country mare, I think. I'm finishing up a chapter which is real important to "Rarity's Worst Day Ever", but before I bring that, I've got something else to show y'all. But it's something I haven't looked at personally- and yet my little head-pony is bouncing and squeeing regardless.
Trixieverse now has fanfiction of its own!
