    Words in print

    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.

The Rarest of all Occassions! · 7:32pm Jan 28th, 2018

Guys!

Guys!

Guys guys guys!

PoweredByTea[1] has just posted a new story. The Price For Luna! And, oh, guys, has this one been a long, long time coming.

How long? Okay. So I wrote fanfic about this fanfic[2].

In 2013.

Yes.

Powered suffered the most amazing, most memorable, most sky-rending case of writer's block and which, an eternity hence, seems to have stopped and you can all finally see what I pre-read somewhere in the Early Pleistocene period. It's a pre-S1 fic and it manages to do the difficult job of being very much Original Flavor while introducing some rather adult and potent drama into the mix.

I recommend it heartily. Go ye forth and read. :)

[1] If you are new, you may not remember this magnificent fellow. Suffice it to say he's one of my very favorite people on all of FimFic and it is a source of perpetual regret on my part that he hasn't written more. He's particularly notable for his utter mastery of Original Flavor stories.
[2] It has a rare example of what I can only describe as Biblical Dotted in it, too. I could be persuaded to exhume it, I'm sure, especially if Powered's story is nice and popular[3].
[3] Blackmail is an ugly word. Damned accurate, though. ;)

This isn't blackmail. This is clearly extortion.

Not that I needed it. It's near the top of my Read Later list.

A Ghostpost! Headed there now.

Er.. were the second two chapters supposed to be released unedited?

Thanks for the heads up!

Of course I know him...he's me.

Sorry, I couldn't resist doing that. [Still mostly hiding in a hole.]

Here, keep out of your hole a little longer so I can fill it with quick cement. :D

Thanks for the recommendation. :)

And it has updated (and the edits have been resolved)!

Great stuff from PoweredByTea, as always :)

Well, holy pete. I won't be able to read it tonight, but you may consider it at the very tippy-top of my to-do list once I have time, probably tomorrow.
