Spinning Plates

So firstly Happy Birthday to Huckleberry 'Chubby' Bleu, he's Mulberry's partner and loved Maple & Pecan Dreams, so we got to talking and he told me more tales of that most unusual bakery. I spun one more of them into another story as a birthday present for him.

I've been speaking to lots of ponies over the past month and my writing queue is getting longer much faster than I can write them, so some of them will unfortunately have to wait. I've also been helping other ponies with their own writing, doing some mild editing to help them tell their own stories. On top of all of that, maintaining the garden and the greenhouses is full time work as it is, so I often only get the chance to write two or three times a week at most.

I've delayed my trip into the Everfree to find the Llamia for another week while I do some other shorts first – Fluttershy of all ponies told me her own accidental discovery of my genre, in absolute soft-as-Fluttershy-does style, and it's just too sweet not to retell.

Before that happens, there's an experiment that's been keeping me awake at night. My readers will know that I tend to play the prey role – but having watched both Mulberry and Bleu... well... I just have to know what it feels like the be on the other side. And I think I know who can help me with that...
