    Cadance of Cloudsdale (so far) now in Spanish!

    Thanks to the generous SPANIARD KIWI, the text of Cadance of Cloudsdale so far is now in Spanish! Mr. Kiwi has done a tremendous amount of work translating many of my stories into Spanish, but this goes above and beyond. If you're curious, you may visit the project so far here at this

    Happy Cadance Day 2024!

    Things feel a bit subdued today, due to the coincidence of Valentine's Day and Ash Wednesday through a quirk of the liturgical calendar. It is somewhat difficult to juxtapose the splash of corporate-encouraged love with the festival that literally exists to remind us of our mortality. The pink of Valentine's washes against the purple of Lent. So I'm in a pensive mood, more so than usual on this

    Ciderfest is a wrap!

    Just got home from PVCF and it was an amazing con experience! The minific-based ARG that circulated around the con the whole weekend was high-concept, and I was worried about engagement, but everyone seemed to really get into searching out the hard-to-find stories concealed around the convention hall (in places as obscure as "the desktop wallpaper on one of the monitors in the video game room,

Bronycon 2016 · 6:14pm Dec 10th, 2015

Okay, so, 2015 was a pretty seat-of-pants visit to Bronycon Baltimore. It worked out all right, but there were opportunities I missed out on simply because I didn't (a) plan far enough ahead and (b) inform other people far enough ahead of time what my plans were. So, for the sake of the interested—whatever that means—I am officially moving from "tentative planning" to "hotel booking" levels of certainty. Make of this what you will! Note that it's been bumped up a few months and is now taking place July 8-10.

Exciting stuff! I hope to see one of your panels :twilightsmile:

I'm pretty pleased about the timing change. Early August puts it right up against the start of the school year and that makes it slightly challenging to schedule time off for me, but holding it in July more or less makes it a summer vacation.

I hope to be on one! I doubt I have to organizational chops to organize or moderate, but if anyone reading this wants my voice in something I definitely wouldn't say no. Unless it was a terrible panel, like "Jerk Fanfic Authors You Should Feel Free to Spit On." Man, who would wanna be on that panel?

3608127 ...darf?

I'll see myself out.

Neat. I might actually show up for that one.

It was a rhetorical question!

However. If it weren't a rhetorical question, we would need to find authors who would take perverse satisfaction at being on such a panel, by dint of feisty masochism. Alternately, it could just be someone willing to go through ridiculous lengths just to get a free badge. For this later category, I nominate Estee, who has been so screwed over by the promotional people at Coca-Cola that being spit on might come as a welcome relief and a good value for the relative humiliations endured. Also he is Pony Hitler and killed a piano once.

3608183 I have not heard about this Coca-Cola incident, but that's a shame. And killing pianos is unforgivable, obvs.

It was, in his defense, a fictional act.

Want to be part of Advanced Writing?

I'll be there. Any plans yet on the writing panels?

3608272
Absolutely, if you feel I'm qualified.

Not yet, other than the one I just said "yes" to!

July huh? Interesting.

Wait, July?

Well, that changes thing a little.

Our daughter will be ~4.5 months at that point. I'm a bit unsure about flying cross-country with her. I wish they hadn't bumped it up.

We need to panel again!

I now have some Baltimore plans to consider, in case I wasn't considering them hard enough.

If you are looking for a place to stay and don't mind a crowded room, I've got a reservation with the Hilton Baltimore, and I'm looking for people to split the cost with.

Thanks for the offer! Me an' two other dudes already have plans to go in on a room together, but I appreciate you asking!

3615236 Have a great time then!

3616336
I hope to! See you there, maybe?

3616357 I'll try to go to some of the writing panels and say hi.

3616659
God willing, see you there!

Excellent! I'll see you there my friend. :pinkiehappy:
