Hello, and an early happy New Year to all of you! If you drink this New Year's Eve, make sure you have a designated driver by your side or cash for a cab!

It's been a while since I've last logged in, but I think I'm all caught up on replying to comments and PMs. If I've somehow missed something you tried to bring to my attention, my sincere apologies--please do feel free to resend.

So I'm doing NaNoWriMo for the first time this year, and I'm already behind schedule and feeling burnt out. At the end of week one.

Ha, ha, ha, I'm doomed.

Also, and unrelated, I just figured out that I can unsubscribe to group forum thread updates without completely leaving a group, which is awesome. Because there are groups where I am interested in the stories added but the forum discussions, uh, leave something to be desired? Yeah. That.

The ApplePie ship group published the collected stories from its prompt collab game, which can be found here. I have a couple mini-stories lurking in there.

"Drought" Bizness:

This is just a notice to anyone following my ApplePie story that I changed the name, 'cause the longer the story's gone on, the more and more I've hated the title. New title is "They Shoot Ponies, Don't They?" which is a reference to the title of the film They Shoot Horses, Don't They?

Recently I held a FLUFFCATION on my Tumblr, and that resulted in me digging up a bunch of good, shippy stories for folks. Figured it wouldn't hurt to share 'em here, too. In keeping with the spirit of FLUFFCATION, the majority of these tend toward the lighter and fluffier end of the Pain And Woe spectrum, so if you need your pony romance drenched in tears and anguish, these are probably not the stories for you.

Anyways, hope y'all like 'em!

There was a little over a month between the last time I logged into Fimfiction and today. I hadn't meant for so much time to pass by, but there were a series of Boring Real Life Events (travel, illnesses, etc.) that kind of made June a busy, stressful month. But that's mostly in the past now, and I'll try to be less of a stranger.

Man, it's been too long since I've done one of the these. Sorry. Anyway! Here are things which I've been reading and enjoying lately, and I hope you'll enjoy them too if you give 'em a read.

Spoiler: They are all shippy. You are shocked to your cores, I am sure.

So!

For the last three weeks, give or take, I was unable to log into Fimfiction. I tried everything I could think of, and then I tried everything my friends could think of, but nothing worked. Finally, I sucked it up and emailed the Fimfiction mod team for help. The best guess was that the most recent update to the site resulted in a bit of coding that really, really hated the apostrophe in my user's name, so I asked if my name could be changed to remove that.
