    Help / Hooves of Fate update.

    Background: Back in July of 2024, I developed respiratory problems. By September I had been diagnosed with a benign growth in my sinuses. I spent the next six months wrestling with medical bureaucracy to try to get it removed.

    New Hooves of Fate Chapter

    Chapter Sixty- Eight: EYE OF THE BEHOLDER is out. It only took a month to write (and it's not even a micro chapter like the last two)!

    It's one of those segments where all the characters took me by surprise. I am very happy to share it with you.

    Let me know what you think!

    "The Tunnel Whisperer" will release tomorrow night in anticipation of the longest day of the year.

    Discuss.

    Hooves of Fate chapter announcement

    I'll be doing something a little different for the next few Hooves of Fate releases. They will be micro-chapters. Short and sweet. Like...really short.

Help! My Heart is Full of Pony! - Five Years of Magic · 6:42pm Oct 15th, 2015


Every year, on October 10th, I look back at the show’s run - the fandom’s journey - the evolution of the characters we know and love - and think, “What a long, strange trip it’s been.” This year, i ran a little late when it came to writing something up (thanks to a crazy work schedule). The fifth anniversary of the show was several days ago now, and while I can’t quite explain it, it somehow feels like a bigger landmark than the others.

Rather than write up my own version of what a lot of others have already said, I’m going to, in the spirit of friendship, share something someone else wrote - something that touched me personally. - Sprocket



This is what The Skullivan wrote on the Bronies Facebook page:

October 10th, 2010 - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic debuts on the Hub Network for the first time. What happened after that, nobody could have possibly predicted. What should have been, by all rights, just another above average kid’s cartoon blew up into a global phenomenon that shows no sign of ever slowing down.

And now here we are, five years later and it’s still going strong. And we’re still going strong too. Stop and think about how wild that is for a second. Five years of My Little Pony. Five years of brightly colored cartoon horses bringing people together all across the globe. Five years of the most impossibly unlikely fanbase, still as active and passionate as those very first days of its formation. Five years of art, music, writings, animations, comics, crafts, spin-offs, costumes, meet-ups, conventions, and a million other major creative endeavors. Five years of that same simple message - that a little kindness, generosity, loyalty, honesty, and laughter really can change the world - still speaking to millions of people all around the world. Five years of friendship. Five years of magic.

Happy 5th Anniversary, every pony. Here’s to another five as good as the last.

- The Skullivan

Friendship and our fandom really are magic.....gifted, talented and intelligent people whom have come together because of a show about loving one another as we are. I wish the rest of the world would come along, too!
