Okay, I admit it, I'm probably not your mom. But odds are I'm old enough to be. Now with Patreon account (under alarajrogers) and short stories on Amazon (under Alara Rogers).

    Dream log, epic Fluttercord edition

    Had a dream during a nap that is perfectly suited to be a story; I'm not even sure I need to tweak it.

    So in the dream, Fluttershy was dying of old age, and Discord couldn't fix it. (She also had insulin-resistant diabetes, but that's kind of less important.) Discord was very upset by this, and decided to take drastic steps to prevent it.

    Dammit, just discovered a friend here's been dead for two years...

    Today I learned that Jordan died in April 2021, and I had no idea. I was re-reading some of my older fanfics, saw his comments, thought, "Huh, I wonder how Jordan's doing", and the answer is, he's not. Dammit.

    FUCKING DONE FINALLY

    "The God of Breaking Rules In The Land of the Dead" is one of my oldest stories on this site. It's not my oldest incomplete -- "The King Who Would Be Man" and "Stumble In My Footsteps" are both older, all part of my initial rush in 2013-14 when I'd first gotten into the fandom and the writing came like a river. But it is old, posted almost 10 years ago (closer to 9 years, 11 months), and

    I don't know for how long, because I never know these things.

    A thing y'all should maybe know

    I may or may not make the change here on Fimfiction, but on Archive of our Own and Fanfiction.net, I am changing my handle to Kaleidolon. Mainly as a branding differentiator between fanfic and profic. It's not like I can hide that Alara J Rogers writes fanfic, not after posting it to the Internet for literally 29 years, but when I get published in real life I want it to be slightly

I am not dead · 10:56pm Apr 17th, 2020

I feel like, in this day and age, this is something I should be telling y'all fairly regularly.

Anyway, I have been writing frantically for my 52 Project and haven't had a chance to swing around to any fanfic yet. But I believe I am going to do the next chapter of No Escape From Yourself, very soon.

If anyone wants to read them, they're at my writing Tumblr. So far I've posted:

1. The Chicken Story: magical realism, comedy
2. Changeling: fantasy, fairy/folk tale, "altered tale" (fairy/folktale/myth where things don't go quite like they originally did)
3. Graduation Day: science fiction, superpowers, cyberpunk -- darker, more violent and grittier than my usual projects

Delighted to hear you're not dead! :pinkiehappy:

Alarajrogers: I'm not dead!
Dead Collector: No, she'll be stone-cold dead in a moment.
Alarajrogers: I feel happy! I feel-oof!

I appreciate the reminder. Especially in these trying times.

Alarajrogers: Quite telling everyone I'm dead!

Dead Collector: Sometimes I can still hear her voice...

Dead Collector: Oh, well, I promised I'd be up at the Robinsons'. They've lost nine today. I'll see you next Thursday.

Very glad to hear you're okay!

Hooray, more No Escape From Yourself!

Glad you’re still vertical. :pinkiehappy: I know what you mean about feeling like you should be telling people this!

That is wonderful news. And I would like to take the time to point out - your Elements of Opposition story was superb. It's a wonderful thing to know there will be more from you. Take it from a person who'd seen your work and found it magnificent.
