    [NEW FIC] Back to writing ponies! (...sorta)

    tl;dr - I put ponies in another fic, but only for a few chapters

    So, real quick, minor confession...this fic is actually one of my oldest, and it's not on this site.

    Hey, easy, easy, let me explain.

    [UPDATE] It's like being nibbled to death by cats

    This chapter is a straight up continuation of the previous chapter, and there's literally zero time skip, unlike most of my chapters in this fic. So much so, in fact, that what had originally been two separate chapters (Gilda fights Sunset, sleepover happens) had to be combined into one because the "Gilda fights Sunset" chapter was going to be too long. It was during the

    [UPDATE] Yes, you saw that right, new chapter

    Not much to say about this one that the notes at the bottom of the chapter itself don't already say. Obviously, my health is much better and my sleep is improving to the point where I'm not having to take medication for it nearly as often. Work is going pretty good (I'll post about that at some point, it deserves its own post) and I've gotten HYPER into The Lost Tomb, which if you haven't read it

    [UPDATE] When you get medical confirmation...

    So I've said in my rather sporadic updates that I've been going through a lot, and I believe I've mentioned that the things that have been happening have been rather more draining on the ol' spoons than I otherwise expected.

    [UPDATE] Egad, some activity?!

    Yes! I am still plugging away at [REDACTED], it's just somewhat slow going due to life reasons. I'm starting to accept that I'm just never going to be as outlandishly productive as WandererD or n7punk, and I'm working on being okay with that.

[THE LIST] "DSP-adjascent" is a real term and you can't change my mind · 6:17pm Sep 13th, 2019

This list is not about my favorite stories of all time. That's my favorites list and one of these days I may get around to writing reviews of those fics.

The List is about stand-out, in-progress works that deserve more love, for whatever reason. In addition to general reviews of the fics, these blog posts will tell why I picked a particular story and highlight any features the reader should look out for. Spoilers will be appropriately marked, so you'll be able to read my reviews with confidence that you'll be able to read the story itself and experience the same surprise and delight I did when I first found it.

Also, authors and fans of works will be able to submit stories. Your particular selection may not make it onto the list, and the more information you give me for why you think it should be featured, the more likely I'll be to read and post it. To submit a fiction, simply PM me through FiMFiction's link on my profile.

The list can be found here: Princess Columbia's List

A Princess, a Magician, and an Exile Walk Into a Bar

Premise
Sometimes you want to go where everypony knows your name...even if you were once taken over by dark magic and tried to enslave others in a bid for domination.

Princess Columbia's Synopsis
Ponies gettin' hammered is somehow much funnier when at least two of them could literally destroy the world and the third isn't a slouch either.

Why am I highlighting this fic?
It's not just that this is written by Sporktacles (who is an unintentional collaborator in the DSP-verse), though that helps. It's that it's just plain funny and a rather large departure for the author, who's work usually delves into the sexual-humor end of the Laughter pool.

What makes this fic particularly good?
Yes it matches my headcanon for Sunset Shimmer, but that's not why. It's because it's a group of adults just...commiserating. It's telling the story about telling stories to reassure each other that they're not alone in the great, wide multiverse.

Who would like this fic?
If you like my and Sporktacles' other fics, you'll enjoy this one as well.

Does the author monetize?2
No, be sure to drop them a line to encourage them to become a filthy, filthy capitalist. :raritywink:


  1. Endorsement on Princess Columbia's List is an endorsement of the selected work of fiction only and is not intended to endorse the creator of the work in any other way.
  2. Why highlight whether the author monetizes their work? By providing renumeration to the author, you often get the opportunity to request certain works be given higher priority. Additionally, when a person is able to get paid for their passion on their terms, it can often allow them to cut out things that otherwise distract from said passion, like a day job.

"My opponent has described my stance as irresponsible, illogical, and even Drunken Sex Party-adjacent. And I would like to take this time to thank him for the compliments."

In any case, yeah, that is a fun story.
