    State of the Unicorn: Poor

    That's poor in both senses, I'm afraid! Though before I say any more, I need to stress that I have a warm, safe home, enough to eat, internet access... the essentials, really. I am not in danger of losing those. However, I won't be doing much beyond those essentials for a while. Without going into boring details, I will very shortly be going in for dental work to be done. Which, as

    So then, Doctor Who

    Loved it! A few little quibbles, not all the acting from the newcomers was stellar and sadly parts of the gender-related stuff felt awkward and forced, eg "something a male-presenting Time Lord wouldn't understand", but I liked much more than I didn't. Plus one of my worries about the new Disney-cash-infused Who has been dispelled: this definitely did

    Bloody Covid

    Fortunately not in the literal sense! But yeah, I'm currently stuck at home, yet not feeling well enough to concentrate on ponyfic. It's a seriously annoying combination. :pinkiesick:

    UK PonyCon report

    This is inelegantly copy/pasted over from the (slightly) nicer looking report over on Louder Yay. Of course, I'm sure you all read Louder Yay anyway because you're such great people, but just in case here's the report here as well...

Book: Discord and the Ponyville Players Dramarama · 10:48pm Jul 23rd, 2015

Buy this book. Seriously, do it right now. I've just bought it myself and I think it's wonderful. Very funny, some excellent Discord'n'Pinkie moments, a really nice reference right at the end and a generally interesting central story. And yes, Discord is very well in character. Also, we get "Princess Twilight's castle" in one paragraph and then, in the very next paragraph, "that hideous monstrosity on the edge of town". Okay, referring to somewhere else -- but was that really coincidental, Ms Berrow, hmm? We're back to standard paperbacks now, incidentally, though the standees haven't returned. Still the best chapter book of the lot. ★★★★★

Heh. Nice juxtaposition.

Anyway, thanks for the review! I've been debating picking up those books, so it's great to know where to start!
