    It's the obligatory new year blog post.

    And yes, I am posting this at around midnight on new year. I have a nasty cold, so I decided to disobey nurgle's one command and stay home.

    Just for kicks

    I'm mucking around with Lulu for a work-related project (very boring stuff) and thought I would do a quality test with something fun.

    Oh shit, words

    Or maybe that comma is in the wrong place. I haven't decided yet.

    The odd things

    I've just been reading through old comments on my scraps story, after publishing yet another chunk from the ancient cutting room floor. It's remarkable how many of the commenters are still around - but also how many logged off for the last time, soon after making their last comment there.

    But in brighter news

    While I'm not making any promises about any particular project here, I am actually writing again. I figure if I write enough of something, some pony words might drop out somewhere along the line as well. You never know. What I'm working on at the moment is essentially a re-write of a story I read a long time ago; an old pulp sci-fi tale, about a spaceship that manages to get lost in the

Oh yeah, got on EqD again · 12:43pm Apr 18th, 2014

So To See The Light made it onto EqD after, and I quote, "some debate and confusion over how we're handling sequels". I have a hard time believing it's not come up before, but hey, I'm not picky.

I've yelled about Equestria Daily's fanfiction policies in the past and I bet I've pissed off or at least mildly annoyed one of the pre-readers at some point. Yet there I am. And there it is.

On the subject of the fic itself, I've been pondering what to do about a bunch of ideas roaming around my head for side-stories. I'm tempted to toss up a side-story accompaniment with random bits of fics and short ideas that don't fit into the main story, or that take place at other points in time. It'd help me resist the temptation to cram everything into the same story that I always seem to end up facing. :derpytongue2:

We'll see.

Anyway, hi to everyone who came here from Equestria Daily. Try some of my other fics as well while you're here. You might like em. :twilightsmile:

A side story collection would be several kinds of awesome, but then, I'm about as biased as it gets when it comes to Princess Derpy. :derpytongue2:

Worth pointing out that EQD recently changed its policies, and pretty much flat out admitted the well-known issues regarding inconsistency, unfairness, and pre-reader bias. Only took them several years, but better late than never, eh?

2021160 Yep, and it's a definite improvement, and a lot closer to the way the professional publishing world does things.

2021151 mhmm... she has that effect on some people. :derpyderp2:

I wish I could get onto EqD. Course, I'd have to write none porn to do that. :derpytongue2:

2021178 As well it's a large group of individuals with strong opinions and very conflicting schedules, so getting them all to agree on something is like herding cats :rainbowlaugh:

Would you be willing to elaborate on how the professional publishing industry works? I'm always interested in learning new things.:twistnerd:

Congratz on getting on EQD:pinkiehappy:
