    The Knife’s Edge

    The other day I got a message from ZanarNaryon telling me they had created a TVTropes page for To Serve In Hell. Now, TVTropes can be a dangerous place to start reading, unless you have a few hours to spend getting lost in it. But if you want to check it out, please

    Not with a bang, but a whimper

    Hey friends.

    I didn’t used to believe in writer’s block as such. I always thought the phenomenon was a manifestation of something else in a person’s life. I also thought the cure for it was just to sit down and write any garbage you can. Editing should never mix with drafting, and if you can get yourself to stop editing, you’ll achieve more and better drafting—which can then be edited.

    Ping 2: Live and In Person

    Almost exactly 2.5 years ago, my family and I bought tickets to Whinny City Pony Con 2020. Of course there was no such con, at least not in a physical capacity. But good egg that he is, Charlie Worthley (con organizer extraordinaire) has made it effortless to transfer our tickets from that long-ago time to right now, despite all that’s transpired between.

    I live.

    Time's gotten away from me.

    2020 got weird. My 2021 started with an honest effort to get back to normal. But after I started getting treated for depression, I began to see more and more ways to improve things in my daily and family life that hadn't fit together very well in years. Including some of the core issues that had pointed me in the direction of MLP in the first place.

    Artistic Expression

    It's been too long. Things are great. Really, really great. Not so much for writing, but for different modes of expression and life.

Ciderfest day 1 recap · 5:50am Oct 29th, 2016

Apologies for the short format, but the hotel wifi is bad and all I've got is my phone and its limited data plan. Special thanks goes out to the guy (whose name I hope to get tomorrow) who let me use his hotspot so I could finish tweaking my panel slides for tomorrow/later today. :ajsleepy:

With that out of the way: Day 1 of Ciderfest was awesome. I got to meet John DeLancie, check out some panels, and learn to play the MLP CCG. The latter had been one of my goals for Whiny City, and it was good to finally get to do that!

I also got to meet and talk to some cool people in the community. I need to go track people down on FimFiction, but some of the highlights were conversations (and/or gaming) with Kwirkyj, Pikavee, RadicalWanderer, Railershy, ShadowHaze, and Bug Buzz.

The morning will be rough. I didn't have time tonight to finish my costume for tomorrow, so that will have to be done over an awesome breakfast of whatever the heck I have on-hand in my room. Actually I still have yet to eat a decent meal since getting here. :derpyderp1:

Oh well. Who has time for food or sleep when there is PONY to be CON'd!!! :pinkiecrazy:

Super Jealous, I did want to go and meet you in the flesh. :raritydespair:

Food and sleep... are for the weak. :rainbowdetermined2:

On that note, I understand hotel towels have a high fiber content. :trollestia:

Look forward to more updates. :twilightsmile:

Hope you have a grand time. :pinkiesmile:

I'm definitely not mad with envy :pinkiecrazy:

4276137 Next time, man. Or one of these days. I don't know how often I'm going to get to do pony cons, but I'm hooked.

4276441 Don't worry, rest assured, it has been NO FUN AT ALL. Honest. :trollestia:
