I am an editor, first and foremost. These stories are the only ones that have really impressed me. I am extremely selective of what I put in this box, and if you see a fic in here, you can be certain for a good read.

What is a Comrade? Well, not me anymore, I guess. You can still call me that, though. I don't mind.

As for who Daring is? I don't actually know, myself. Or should that be 'I don't actually know myself'? Commas matter.

There are many, many places to go for grammar rules on the internet, but that doesn't seem to reach everyone. A lot of people, hobby writers especially, have trouble with grammar and are often too intimidated by these sites to dive in. I decided to write informational blogs to try to give writers the tools to understand how language works. If there are topics you find confusing, post a request in the comments below, and I'll see about writing a post to explain it. And never be afraid to ask questions. Ever.

List of topics I've covered.
-Writing the Royal Canterlot Voice
-Participles, Gerunds, and Tense
-Parts of Speech (Vocabulary)
-Contractions
-Vocatives
-Homophones

Indeed I was! And I couldn't agree with you more. SGaP, for me, is sonic tranquility. Eudaimonia.

And, just so you know, I still regularly listen to The World is as Iron, On SteamGear Wings, and Appleblossom. In fact, they often get mixed in with SGaP when I'm looking to relax .
