I don't have a muse, I have a mule. Early-onset arthritis in both thumbs inspired the handle. If you like pencil art, czech out my DeviantArt page. http://wisdom-thumbs.deviantart.com/

    Going strong, FIMfiction.

    It's strange, but I've been active/semi-active on this site for over eleven years. That's twice as long as I puttered about on Fanfiction.net, where this username/gamertag evolved from a pompous mouthful that included the words "Great" and "of." :trixieshiftright: It's even stranger to think that I've been reading and writing fanfiction for eighteen years, starting on sites like Gametalk. I

    Requesting a proofreader, & "The Last Duel"

    I'm writing a short story collection that bridges MLP:FiM and DnD lore. It's surprisingly simple in concept, but broad in scope, because it's a total rewrite of Swordpony. The most important changes:Spike's egg is the focus, and Grogar is the villain, not some unnamed deer god of death. I daresay you'll find it fits DnD mythos to a tee, to the point that you might question: Did

    New Generation is surprisingly good

    When a Netflix movie about my little ponies has more nuance and insight than most of Earth's professional journalists... Maybe that's not saying much, but it does give a little hope. I especially liked the interplay between g4 lore and g5 lore. That's good mystery.

    In Pursuit

    That's the title.

    A short series of chapters featuring Zephyr Breeze's rise from ignominy to physical fitness, a place in the Wonderbolts, his fall from grace, and then his pursuit of wing and wind sciences as RD's attache/fiance.

    Someone chose not to write this. Are you thankful, or forlorn?

    Crafty's Footwork

    Horses are not naturally left-footed or right-footed. One front foot must land before the other, and horses choose which foot comes first. The faster a horse moves, the easier they can change leads. It's a little counter-intuitive, and hard to recognize in videos. They naturally have four movement speeds, called "gaits." Many so-called experts mistakenly call these *three gaits.*

I've heard of Critical Role. Do they usually do one-offs in other RPG systems?

Careful, don't drive yourself batty.

Critical Role does occasional oneshots, but as far as I'm aware they're all played in D&D 5e. They are professional voice actors though, and some of them with stage experience. And I've seen Matt Mercer play Open Legend on a different channel.
