    The rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

    So, one, I'm alive. Had an extended stasis period, but I never forgot the fandom, especially the ever-increasing corner at FimFic. Hi. How about that movies, huh? That happened.

    Curtain Call.

    So, that's it. All of Both Sides Now is posted, so if you're one of the people who tracked it and was waiting for it to be done before reading, you can do that from this point on. It was a fun experience -- hard work, but ultimately very rewarding. Once again, I'd like to thank everyone who made it better than it was to start off with, and also really anyone who read it and liked it.

    Fan Service.

    Let's talk about shipping.

    I like shipping. It's where I gravitate towards when it comes to fanworks. It's cute and fluffy and, for all the flak that it gets from vehement anti-shippers, has the potential to be deep and meaningful and reveal a lot about the shipped characters and maybe even touch a little on the human condition... but when it doesn't, it's still cute and fluffy.

    Dotting the Is, crossing the Ts.

    Hey, so... that story I was working on, the one with Twilight and Rarity and the dual perspectives, the first draft is finished. Would anyone want to do me a huge favour and pre-read it? No hurry -- it's 30,000 words, so it's not really a thing for one sitting. There's sex, but not all of it is sex. It's unsubmitted on my account here, but I could put it on Google Docs if that's how you roll (I'm

    We now return to your regularly scheduled programming.

    So while I was away, I managed to write my 15,000th word of that Twilight/Rarity thing that came up a little while ago; it feels like I'm more than halfway done, but I can't tell just how much more. With short stories that are only a scene or two in length it's difficult for them to drift away from your original idea when you

Dotting the Is, crossing the Ts. · 7:13pm Aug 25th, 2015

Hey, so... that story I was working on, the one with Twilight and Rarity and the dual perspectives, the first draft is finished. Would anyone want to do me a huge favour and pre-read it? No hurry -- it's 30,000 words, so it's not really a thing for one sitting. There's sex, but not all of it is sex. It's unsubmitted on my account here, but I could put it on Google Docs if that's how you roll (I'm shit at GDocs, though). Give as much or as little feedback as you like. Don't be afraid to be brutal -- we writers, we take all criticism in the same way whether it's blunt or dressed-up: pretty poorly -- it's not often I have the stamina for long-form pieces, so I'd like to do things right and have this one be good as it can be. Reply if interested, or PM, or carrier pigeon or whatever. Pigeons will probably make it since I like to have the balcony door open.

Wait, you dot the 'i's and cross the 't's? Shoot, I've been doing it wrong for the last 20 years...

For a second there I thought I derped the title of the blog. Checked it again. Dot i. Cross t. No, it's right. Jesus, I have like a mortal fear of doing dumb shit like that.

yes pls

Shoot me a PM I'll have a look see if you want

I'm always up for pre-reading things. Can't guarantee a fast pace, but I'll be thorough.

Sure, I haven't preread any horse words in a long time.

My carrier pigeon is on its way with my information. Expect her in a couple days. Her name is Feuerschwinge, and she likes Triscuits. Don't give her any, though. She has indigestion.

And, covered. I think I'm good now. For now.

...How do you pronounce Feuerschwinge? My German is atrocious for someone who's half German.

I have no idea. It looks cool as hell written down though.
