Right, so it's been a month since I last checked in, and at that time I said I'd write a couple blog posts. Well, the holiday season came at me like a ton of bricks, what with its real-life obligations and so forth. I wish I had been able to put some time aside for writing, but I'm honestly pretty bad about that. But that's all over and I have more free time than usual. So, like I said last time, I had some thoughts about Season 5, specifically everything after "The Lost Treasure of

Hello. It's been a while. Too long, in fact. I've had some long pauses between my stories, or any other kind of artistic endeavors I've gone on. It's a problem. I want to get back into writing, and I want to finish up this monster of a story that's just become huge and crazy and equal parts fun and frustrating, for myself and for anybody that's been waiting. I like to pretend I'm some kind of big-shot when I give updates on what I'm doing and how I'm doing it, which is admittedly

Okay, I'm more than aware I'm a small fry on FimFiction with basically zero notoriety or fame (E-fame? Internet illustriousness?), but I said I'd write something for the Writer's Training Grounds for Week 3, and I didn't. And it's worth mentioning why, at least. I could blame a bunch of stuff for preventing me -- I had a final, a job interview, my workplace is undergoing structural changes, one night I had a splitting headache -- but those are excuses. Factors? Yes. The cause? No. I just had

So to continue my tradition and bad habit of writing more blog posts than stories, but also to somehow cut down on the number of posts I make, I'd like to talk about both my new story for EQD's Writer's Training Grounds, Just an Accident, as well as Saturday's episode, Make New Friends but Keep Discord!

Hello there, pony peoples! It's not very late here in Southern California, but I'm incredibly wiped like you wouldn't believe. Finals are coming up, I'm dealing with crazy changes at work that are much too long to get into, and three days ago I saw the newest edition of the Writer's Training Grounds on EQD. For the past, oh man, I don't know, three years I've missed out on this sort of thing because

First things first: new chapter goes up most likely sometime tomorrow. My semester is ending soon and some things are happening at work, so life is just really getting in the way for me. Same goes for my proofreader, he's got his own stuff to handle.

Again my titles ain't the greatest, but at least I'm getting to this sooner than usual! Let's talk about the latest episode, Bloom and Gloom. As usual there's things I dig about it, and things I don't, but overall I think this was a good one. And although I didn't say it the last couple of times, there's going to be spoilers here, so read at your discretion.

So as something of a personal writing exercise, I'm gonna continue writing about Season 5 in these blogs! Again I'm nearly a week late to the metaphorical party and my title's a pile of horseapples, but whatever!

Okay, so I'm basically a week behind in saying anything about this, even though I saw the episode on the day it aired. I've had a weird week with work and returning to college after spring break. You could say it's a... long story? AH-HAHAHAHAHA please don't kill me. By this point of course, just about everything seems to have already been said about the premiere two-parter. I'm sure what I'm about to write will sound like echoes of other people's thoughts, but hey,

Hey! I'd like to start off with apologizing for how late this chapter was. I tend to second-guess myself all the time, and it didn't help that many things had to happen at this point in the story. On top of that, I ended one college semester, then was caught up in the holidays, and I've just started yet another semester! So life's pretty busy. But I've got a few announcements in regards to Kickin' Flanks.
