    Letters arc complete and posting Monday with Chapter 10 of The Knight, The Fey Maiden, and the Bridge Troll too

    I have up to Chapter 99 complete in Letters From a Little Princess Monster, which is a little embarrassing since I *started* the arc in the middle of Covid season. It could have graduated from several universities in that time. Rather than tease bits out of it like I have before, I'm just going to go straight into my daily publishing routine and let you catch up on where I am on The Knight, The

    Sun will be down for maintenance on Monday. Sorry for the inconvenience. --NASA


    Here's a story by Estee you can read to take up the time until the Sun is all tuned up and returned to operation.

    EA Total Eclipse Of The Fun
    The second anniversary of the Return is approaching, and all Luna wants for the celebration is one thing -- something Equestria hasn't seen in more than a thousand years. This could be a problem.

    Big Leather Egg Sunday

    A reminder (as John Cleese put it) that today is Big Leather Egg Sunday, and to celebrate, I'm linking the Best Football MLP story of all time by Kris Overstreet. Starring... Rarity?

    Goodbye Toby Keith, American Legend

    Undoubtedly, if Toby Keith had ever done a tour in Equestria, Applejack would have been right there in the front row, whoopin' and a hollerin' as loud as possible. I think every high school in the US had a proud friendly guy like this, and we raise our red Solo cups in tribute to his last beer run. Salute!

    New Year 2024- New Projects 1939

    Still working on everything else this year, but I've got a sequel/prequel to Equestria: 1940 in the works, both a series of short stories set in the 1940 world up to the Equestrian moon project, and a war story showing some behind the scenes details about the war. For a little country the size of Ohio in the northern Atlantic, it has a lot of potential. Explosive, mostly. Snippets after the

Footnotes! The Traveling Tutor and the Librarian has a new look · 4:13am Feb 16th, 2019

I have *just* finished up re-editing and re-posting all thirty-seven chapters of The Traveling Tutor and the Librarian, making all the headers line up right, adding proper⁽*⁾ footnotes, and taking out all my Google+ pictures by turning them into TinyPic.com links (because Google+ is going away next month). If you haven't read it before, I'd encourage you to take a trip through it over the next few days, and if you have read it, feel free to return for another trip. And if you're still not convinced, I'll hit you with a pillow.

Time for a reread!!

Great, now I have to reread one of my favorites. Damn you!

Using the superscript typeface? I figured you were redoing them using the built-in footnotes1.

--Sweetie Belle

  1. Done with {footnote]This is a footnote.{/footnote}, only with []'s.

Oh, good. I much prefer the in-line footnotes on web-based stuff. Having to page down to the end and back is hugely frustrating.

I have the same problem with end notes in a print book. Flicking the eye to the bottom of the page is much less disruptive than having to go to the end of the chapter (or even the end of the book - my one complaint with the Yu translation of Journey to the West, where you have to do this with four books.

On the other hand there is the little trick with notes and mouseovers. Quite hard doing that in print...

An excuse to re-read!

5014375 I would have, *except* if Knightly changes the footnote format, that would mean I have to go dig through all 37 chapters *again* to fix stuff.
5014439 And an excuse to fix typos, of which I just fixed six in a row. sigh.
5014350 5014346 I'm so evil :)
