    Recently, I've been asked for permission by Avonder to include Whom The Princesses Would Destroy... in a story anthology he's putting together. I'm not one for hoarding words and I gave it quite, quite gladly.

    You'll find it here.

    Now(TM) with Travel Advice

    I'm safely ensconced in my hotel room in Ludwigsburg. Hope to meet at least some of you. To increase the odds of this happening, I offer the following advice:

    Soon(TM)

    I will be flying to Galacon 2018 in under twelve hours and I expect I will be safely in Ludwigsburg within 24 hours. I will be hard to contact during this period, though I think I've acquired a method of fool-proof Internet access no matter where I am (aside from six miles straight up, of course).

    Hope to see many of you soon!

    Happy July 20th!

    ...or July 21st, depending on your timezone.

    49 years ago the first manned Moon landing was accomplished. It is one of my favorite moments in history (To learn about my favorite you may have to wait for December the 9th), and to celebrate I've re-edited Hoofprints to be a little less... ah, draft-y.

A New Dotted Line Story · 12:43am May 25th, 2016

...but not from me. Bad Horse made an absolutely gorgeous story featuring Dotted Line: The Gathering. It's absolutely wonderful in all the best Bad Horse-y ways and also wonderful in Dotted Line-y ways and wonderful in a few ways all of its own. It's quite, quite short and will, guaranteed, make your day better. I ask humbly that you give it a read as soon as you can: you won't be sorry you did, and it will take but a moment.

It is a fun little thing which I couldn't help but review today, just to try and give it an extra nudge upwards. It is a good little piece that says a lot in very few words.

Speaking of extra nudges upwards, I know you've got a lot of things on your plate, but I think I speak for everyone when I say we always hope to see new stories out of you, too. :heart:

3969824 I can confirm that titanium Dragon speaks for me when I say that I hope to see more stuff from you.

Thanks for the recommendation! That Bad Horse sure can write.

Noted and added to read later list...

Can confirm, will indeed make the day better.

Thanks for pointing it out. It's a brilliant story.

Thanks for the heads-up GhostOfHeraclitus.
It's probably also time for me to reread Whom the Princesses Would Destroy, so thanks for reminding me about that as well.

Hope you're doing well.

Disclaimer: I go into this with full knowledge and understanding that you will either verbally lambaste me to the core of my being with all the consummate skill, verve and esprit of a master wordsmith that you are, or elsewise have me committed to psychiatric care institution as dangerously deluded individual, for even daring to suggest something like this. Thusly I take full responsibility for both the actions I am about to undertake and your reactions to them Ghost.

Here goes - please tell my momma that I love her - :
The story was mostly meh. Not bad but certainly nothing to get excited about. If compared to your work (and Dotties presence necessitates the comparison) it was a pale imitation that can only dream to one day - if it were to be good and upstanding and eat all of it's vegetables - approach something you might pen.

I mean, I liked the story, don't get me wrong, but compered to your work GhostOfHeraclitus it really doesn't stand up.
