    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.

I am desperately behind on my feed again but not as desperately behind as I am on pulling together the next chapter of To Serve In Hell, so I missed last week's news about the glorious host of new character tags that are now available. IMO this is a godsend; I have so many friggin' stories that were using "Other" as a placeholder for good characters.

Tagbot seeks love and acceptance on the mean streets of (insert urban population center)

I am particularly tickled to see Moonlight Raven join the herd, and to finally get a Sassy Saddles tag that I can put on To Serve In Hell! Where was that like a year ago?! :trixieshiftright:

Anyway: tags ahoy! Here's what I've updated.

Mistress of the Dark (Moondancer, Moonlight Raven)
Ghost Dusters (Moondancer, Moonlight Raven)
Purple Rain (Svengallop)
To Serve In Hell (Sassy Saddles)
Conscience (Star Swirl the Bearded)
You've Got Spam! (Bat Pony)
Baby Limestone Rides to War (Limestone Pie, Pets)

So. It was you that tagged all of those stories!

You monster!

:trollestia:

Man... now I've gotta retag everything... or do I? Maybe I'll fight the power by sticking to my old ways! My old... unproductive... ways.... Dang.

I'm always behind in my feed
