    Steamed Hams but it's in reference to The Non-Compete Clause

    With thanks to Merc the Jerk for this terrible idea, but let's be honest, we're giving the episode much more attention than it deserves.

    I want to write again but I need your thoughts!

    Since I've settled into an easygoing life, with a new computer at my side, I'm getting that writing bug again. It pays to have friends who write in that regard, since you tend to look at them and be a little ashamed that you aren't matching their output at all.

    Sunset Over Paradise

    If you're an impatient little troglodyte like me, you've no doubt already seen the three Equestria Girls specials, with English subtitles of course because as of right now they're only in Polish—

    An Experimental Excerpt - The Pink Pioneer

    Sometimes I write. I promise. The process usually involves a huuuge ton of time thinking of how awesome an idea of mine would be... without nailing down many specifics or getting on with the damn thing. That said, once I do get writing, I can achieve a decent length in a short amount of time. I suppose that fits my personality; long bouts of distraction coupled with short, intense bursts of work.

Watercooler · 7:54pm Mar 27th, 2014

Don't ask me why I called this blog 'Watercooler'. I didn't have any better ideas to call your standard news blogs. Anyway, let's get on with it, eh?

Winningverse RainbowPie

Y'know, the final one (probably). Don't expect it soon, although I did get quite a little bit written down today. The more I worked on it, the more I thought it needed expansion. So I'm doing that. Really, it takes place at just the right time, meaning lots of things to explore and delve into. Therefore, while Rainbowpie will be a main focus, we'll get Pinkie's thoughts on other things. Mainly war, changelings, things like that. (Er, spoilers I guess? Takes place just after the Season 2 finale but really, that's not spoiler-ly. Pinkie could just place C4 around the castle and blow it up to make sure no changelings are alive. You don't know yet, do you?)

This does mean a few things:

+Longer fic!
+A more varied fic!

-Longer time for Jake to get off his ginger arse and write the damn thing.

Writing first person Pinkie is very rewarding, but extremely challenging too. Sometimes the words just come, and sometimes I'll get really bogged down by just one choice of phrase. So it'll come. Eventually. We'll get there, it'll just take a bit of time.

I find this guy hilarious. Probably because he's just so amazingly British.

Followers

So apparently I've only got twelve or something to go before I hit the big ol' four hundred mark.

He's beautiful.

So I'm thinking I should probably do something for that, right?

Right. Problem is, I have no idea wut. I could write some Pinkie oneshot. Or a Scootaloo one. Or a Pinkie/Scootaloo/Lyra one where they all, I dunno, bounce in a bouncy castle for some reason.

Or I could host some game thing. And by that, I mean try to find an empty TF2 server or hope for the best. I do have L4D2 as well though. And PAYDAY 2. And Age of Empires II... I have a lot of games.

Alternatively some traditional Q&A. You guys like that, right?

I dunno. Do the work for me and make suggestions!

Some Stupid TF2 GIF

Because I haven't posted one in a while.

There's your lot. Might do another blog post later. Depends if I have anything interesting to say, I suppose.

P.S.

M-Muh waifu... (If you hadn't known that by now, I dunno what to say.)

I like the water cooler. It's a good place to spread around news. Hey, just like what you did!

Funny thing about watercoolers. Once I had a fic idea that was essentially the MLP version of The Office. And Discord was a goldfish who lived in the watercooler for some reason.

I promise you I was not under the influence when I thought of that.

I could see Discord as being Dwight Schrute, just a very dry wit and off-the-wall (but entirely true) observations about how inept everyone is at their jobs.

I'm with Pirate here. I expect--nay--demand a bouncy castle and ponies short!

Question.

what exactly is the "Final" RainbowPie supposed to be?

Is Pinkie finally going to taste the rainbow?

A fic where Scoots, Pinkie, and Lyra drink coffee. And chaos ensues. That is all.
