    Couch is writing again?

    Uh, probably not. At least, not according to the requirements or expectations this site might have for writing. Furthermore, it's only a 300-word drabble on Tumblr right now.

    But it's there. Or hit the break for a synopsis and an extra link to what's there now.

    Why I Deleted Sunset Shimmer Has A Problem

    Writing long blog posts on a phone stinks, but TL;DR: much as I like Sunset Shimmer, I'm not a fan of the series she's lashed to. So I'm just going through and removing stuff I've done that had anything to do with EqG, and then I'm silent on the topic forever more.

    Juvenile Cephalopods, Productivity, and the Tricking Myself into the Latter Thereof Via Exploiting the Former

    So while every single one of my friends are heading to Baltimore this weekend to horse around, I finally went and bought myself a Wii U and Splatoon. If at any given moment you also have Schrodinger quandaries concerning your status as kid or squid, add my Nintendo Network ID: couchcrusader, and we can stomp some pubs together.

    Couch's Thoughts on Episode 100

    Let me begin by saying there's a lot of valid criticism out there about, well, everything to do with this episode -- its premise, its execution, its intent, its impact on future episodes, its inpact on the fandom, and so on. It's far from perfect, or, dare I say it, great. I'm right there with many folks when I say it came across as a checklist of rote fan-inspired items Larson and

It's May, My Avatar is Still Santa-fied, and Oh Yeah, EFNW. Goes to Show You How Much I'm Around Here. · 3:40am May 27th, 2015

Taking a leaf out of Aquaman's book with the gaggishly-long blog title here to announce that, yes, I'll be in attendance once again for this year's edition of Everfree Northwest. Seeing how I'm back home after a year freezing my flank off in Wisconsin (though considering it brought me into the same company as Skywriter twice, I'll call myself ahead there), it was all but inevitable that I'd slink around my hometown con again.

Amazingly enough, they let me onto a panel this year. Not on the writing track, however -- the flip was the last time I did anything of authorial merit around here? -- but on quite the different one.

Enter Tumblrpon 202: How to Run an Askblog.

Click on the picture itself to learn more, but the basic gist of it is that I've found some success drawing spiderhorses to the point where people get confused into thinking the whole thing has any semblance of a good story. If I have somehow hoodwinked you into believing that and you're in attendance this year, feel free to stop on by and listen to us talk about the cool things we've seen while making our blogs (as well as some of the not-as-cool things). We'll even throw in some Q&A time for the camera-enabled among you to capture panelist spaghetti for posterity.

What are your alternatives on a Saturday night, anyway? Ponystock?

More along those lines, if you run into me during the convention, I'll have Children of Everfree bookmarks and prints on me that could be yours, FREE (or for a few bucks if you'd like extras). Check 'em out!


Very, very excited to be going this year. Anyone else I know going to be there?

I don't know if you know me, but I'll be there. As for who else, they have a bunch of community guests listed on their tumblr, website, userprofile here, etc.

As is my avatar on EQD. Hey, no sense in changing it. In another 7 months it'll be the holidays all over again!

It's been awhile since I've check the Kelpie Dash blog. (I kid, but Dash as a Kelpie is uber cute) Love the adorable monster shenanigans between those two.

Wish I could go, best of luck!

UPDATE: Ah, new job. Well, grats on that. Shame it sounds like it's crazy demanding. Still surprised you had time to even make as many as you did given how little time you have to even write stuff.

Sad to hear the blog close down, but that's life!

I'm just happy you made the blog. It was a much needed cute.

Not this year, alas. D: Enjoy!

I shall be there.

3101767 I've seen you around here, and I like meeting new people! See you there!


3101897 Excuse you, I haven't closed it down :P It's just on hiatus as I continue job training. I love my current work right now, though, so I'm very happy to have it. Thanks for the kind words as always, too!

3101908 Aww, bummer. This is karmic retribution for my skipping of Babscon, isn't it?

3101908 noooooooo!:raritydespair:
(Not the worst possible thing, but still stinks.

I'm there! God willing an' the creek don't rise and all. (EDIT: not actually, brain short-circuited.) And yes, it was great being in your geographical area, however briefly. Would that we both would ave had some more spare time during that period, but it was a busy time for both of us. :unsuresweetie:

Strange enough, I'll actually be at this one as well. I'll have to track you down at some point and abuse your generosity for nifty spidershy swag. ;)

3102335 haha yeah, "indefinite hiatus" should probably be reworded to something else then. xD

3102634 I think I'm misreading something. I thought you weren't coming to EFNW this year? And alack, the fact that I got to grab lunch with you twice in area was a recent addition to the bucket list I've been able to cross off. =)

3102860 It will have been, what? Bronycon 2013 since we last saw each other? It'll be good to catch up!

3103221 It means I plan on coming back. Sometime... :P

3104367
Shoot, I'm sorry, I spaced. I got EFNW and Bronycon crossed in my brain. In my defense I am very tired.

3104367 I bet you say that to all the ladies/men/unknowns!

We all know they never call back. Leaving poor Rariharpy waiting for the one who promised to return to her with more shiny stones!

You'll never return. They never do! :raritycry:

(Except when they do like that beautiful bastard of Cheerilee's Class)

Definitely! I'm in Seattle already, although dead on my feet. 12 hour shift followed by 8 hours in planes is rough.
