    Coming Soon, Really

    I've been a bit under the weather since Trotcon, but feeling better now.

    This weekend I need to work on putting together some poni stuff for my niece (she's up here for her birthday), and my inability to do basic things makes that a bit difficult. So I may be delayed a few days on the Trotcon retro and the other long post I still really really want to share with y'all.

    Twilight's Enigmatic Clarification (AI ≠ LLM GAI)

    To head off any possible confusion, I've added a clarification to TEEE's story page and a note at the top of the chapter explaining that TEEE was not written using LLM generative AI (the story actually predates this technology by several years).

    I will be at Trotcon. Still alive.

    I remain alive, and as of June 13th am now the number of symmetries in a cube.

    I will be at Trotcon.

    Please contact me if you're there! (Or even if not, that's okay too.) :pinkiesad2:

    I might do an author party. I'll announce it with another post. Signal boost would be useful.

    I am still alive and also at AnthrOhio

    Sorry for disappearing. Ironically the thing I wanna talk about is the thing that keeps me from being here at FF or getting anything done. :facehoof:

Minor Story Update · 6:57pm Jul 13th, 2015

I have reverted "Paying with a Smile" to its original name, "The Price of a Smile", and added a tiny Prologue chapter at the beginning to act as a stronger hook.

Nothing in the story has been changed.

Yay!

I never understood the new name.

I realize you wrote this seventeen months ago, but:

It was to make the meaning of the title explicit. The name I ended up reverting to (which, granted, is a better name), is more likely to be misread as "this is how much a smile costs" rather than the intended "the price is Twilight's smile (the price for knowledge)". The former way still makes perfect sense, but it's not as evocative to me.
