    Actually, on the subject of stories in other places...

    So I mentioned before that much of my writing recently had shifted to positive stories with transgender themes. (Perhaps there's something about 2020 and 2021 that really gets me to lean into writing cute fluff, because the world isn't providing a lot of that right now) I'm on a private writing discord with some folks who write similar things, and this past December we did a Secret Santa

    Stories of a Different Nature

    Hi everyone! I'm not totally sure how many of my followers here are actually active, given that I've been out of the ponyfic game for... well, for years at this point.

    Leftover Books!

    Bronycon was tremendously, tremendously fun - and I think I already am suffering from a bit of post-con ennui. I wish I could pack up and head back and do it all over again next weekend. There are too many folks to name, and I'm paranoid about leaving anyone out, but... Basically, it was wonderful to get to see so many friends, whether I have known them for years or got to meet them for the first

    Bronycon!

    So, I'm at this thing. Already escaped from a room and everything.

    If you see me, say hi! But I have no idea what I'm doing most of the con, except one thing: Friday morning I'll be at the bookstore booth in the marketplace. So stop by then if you want a copy of my book and want me to sign it too! (All three of you who want it or whatever, heh)

Writeoff · 11:37pm Dec 16th, 2014

So, I participated in the Writeoff for December, coming up with two stories that I'm overall quite pleased with. The better of the two has been posted for your reading pleasure. The other is in a spot of limbo as I try to work out some issues still bothering me about it. Dunno when that'll be posted – probably when I get frustrated one day and just throw it on the site to put something up.

I'd also like to strongly recommend the other two fics from the writeoff that are currently posted:
Dressing Room – A killer hook and concept, but more than that, a downright charming execution of such.
Funatics – A very sweet story wrapped in evocative prose that aligns perfectly with Luna's voice. (At least a fan-familiar interpretation of Luna's voice)

They're both some of my own favorites from the contest, and you won't find your time wasted there.

I sometimes worry that I'm drifting into writing nothing but short one-shots now, and that it might end up with my writing being less substantive than I'd like. But I do have a longer project in the works that I'm really excited about. Just... stuck on a scene. Hopefully over the next couple of weeks I'll have the free time to tackle it directly. We'll see.

Belated addition:
What We Wanted To Do from the Writeoff is also great and very funny!
