    Bronycon 2019: The Epic

    So, here I am. Nursing a nice warm herbal tea (dandelion burdock eluthero, my own blend) to soothe my Bronycon-wrecked voice, and preparing the final Bronycon con report. Beware, this is longer than most people's stories, but it also has a story arc and drama and the classic Applejinx happy ending.

    Capstone

    Trixieverse is one million, three hundred and forty-six thousand and eight words. The eight words are "SORRY DOESN’T FROST THE CUPCAKES! screeched Pinkie Pie", and now it can be told: the millionth word of Trixieverse was Pinkie shrieking 'CUPCAKES' in a sincerely murderous mood. Because, if you're writing a million word clopfic series and you're aware of ponyfic traditions, how can you NOT have

    Foreign Affairs

    I cannot launch 'Foreign Affairs' for Xmas. I've tried and I have a great deal of preparation and I'm excited about the story, but I have just over one day not counting traveling to visit family, dealing with that etc etc. and I've only got 700 or so words and I've had far too much to deal with and it ain't happening. :ajsleepy:

    But I can launch it for New Year's! :ajsmug:

    The Bronycon Dialogue Panel

    People are beginning to post the panels they did at Bronycon, so I thought I might join in.

    Here's the panel Lunatone gave, with Applejinx-style preparation, rehearsal and presentation (I also brought some of my dialogue know-how to the table :raritywink: )

    You might want to read that, it's good.

    It's also the reason that I'm going to write another full Trixieverse novel. It will be called 'Foreign Affairs', and take place in Neighpon.

The Prom

Finally, the antijossing of one of my favorite scenes (kid-ified more than a little, which is fine)

Because dammit, My Little Pony really always did need ponies tapdancing to big band music with "drums, horns, saxophones: a fanfare to stir the blood, sassy and audacious as it burst out of the past to cavort before the future." And starting out on four hooves in piaffe, crossing them over to go more sideways, and then rearing up on two hooves to twirl and do amazing things like a horse Gene Kelly…

The rest of the episode, eh: it was fine, they can't all be Amending Fences. But pony tap? Called it. Pony tap is awesome. Long may it wave :raritywink:

If they ever show Sweetie liquid dancing with Scootaloo locking, DHX will really have blown the gaff :rainbowlaugh:

Yeah, I kind of thought of that scene while watching the episode today, too. I also kind of thought of one of my own stories because it dealt with the same worry of friends growing apart with different interests, but yours was way more on point. Hope you're doing well. :twilightsmile:

3859476 Well enough, thank you :raritywink:

Still turning out a chapter a week of Precious and feeling much better now that I'm keeping to that commitment: and I'm working on the successor project Tales of Versus, giving guitar lessons, and mixing a guy's rock/roots album :raritystarry: and the last two are paying gigs!

So things are still pretty dicey, but Jinxie is hanging in there, in style :duck:

3860098 Those last two sound really cool. Well, all the things sound vool, but I have a deep interest in music and lyrics composition because I just feel so bad at it. Also, I haven't started reading Precious yet, sorry.

3860439 Anypony who's waiting for it to be finished before reading, has roughly a month to go. It's pretty close to done (and it's been one of the more insanely ambitious projects I've ever taken on: lots and lots of subtle and or secret stuff in there :raritywink: )
