    Ding! Story Alert!

    The first chapter of Affettuoso is live!

    I was hesitant to do a Vinyl/Octavia story, since there's no real characterization for them in the actual show, and the pairing... well, I've never quite clicked on the dynamic.

    Well, here's my attempt. A Vinyl/Octavia story with a bit different dynamic than I've read in other stories. I hope you enjoy. :twilightsmile:

    Not dead

    So, I have 3 different stories that are at ~80% done, but I'm struggling to get them finished.

    In the meantime, I had to get this out: Heart and Blood

    Up dah-tes

    So...
    So, I've had a bout of writer's block, got sick of not having anything to show for myself and posted the first chapter of something I've been working on on the side, and watched it land with a dull 'thud'.

    And now I'm in China, and will remain so until after Thanksgiving.

    Yes, that China.

    Yes, that Thanksgiving.

    No, I'm not happy about it.

    The Horror

    I just had a horrible thought.

    A horribly horrible thought.

    Why does Applejack keep pigs?

    Cows provide milk. Chicken eggs are unfertilized, so you aren't eating... you know.

    But why pigs?

    What do pigs provide that isn't... meat?

    I... I think I'm going to be sick.

    Pies and Peitz

    Apropos of nothing, at least nothing that will bear fruit any time soon, I've decided that Pinkie is of German ancestry. Not just any German, mind you, but specifically those of the Pennsylvania Dutch. Why Pennsylvania Dutch? Because of two things: the Rock farm and the dessert shop.

The Grind · 11:50am Mar 10th, 2015

There are times when the ideas come so quickly and flow so freely that I almost can't type fast enough to get them out. Then there are times when even getting a paragraph out is like a slog through two feet of snow while in bare feet.

Lately it's been more like the latter for me. I still have ideas, but they are few, and hit at odd times, and when I finally get a chance to sit and write, putting them on the page is sheer frustration.

Perhaps I need a vacation.

Perhaps I'm too old for this crap.

Perhaps I need to cut down on using the word 'perhaps'.

Nah.

Nah. Perhaps is a wonderful word.

But seriously, a vacation wouldn't hurt, if you really have to force yourself to write. It's meant to be fun, not a chore.
