    The Massive Ponyville Ciderfest 2023 Wrap-Up Report

    As of this writing it is now Wednesday after Ponyville Ciderfest 2023, and I've had a few days to sort of process my thoughts a little. This weekend was one for the history books, but also one that was intensely personal to myself and even my wife.

    My name is Volrathxp, and I was bitten by a... wait wait wait, wrong franchise. Sorry about that folks.

    Let's talk about Trotcon 2023.

    Definitely not dead here. Just have had a lot to work through with recent projects and work has been intensely busy.

    If you were at Whinny City Pony Con and came to my panel, thanks for stopping by! I brought a physical set of Starlight for the charity auction and it raised $700 for charity!

    I'm back from vacation, so probably going to try to get back into writing mode. Things should hopefully be a little less erratic.

    Definitely planning on getting things going more for Spark of Life. I've been off the track a bit so should get back on here.

Well, I think it should be obvious that I've been pretty MIA.

That being said, Trotcon December 2021 came and went and I really have found a new and old appreciation of what I missed about this fandom and that was Fallout and Horses primarily. This is a good thing because it really got me thinking hard on what I wanted.

I'm going to start working on some projects again, primarily one project. One important bit here is that yes, I am cancelling "Reclamation Day". I haven't been utterly thrilled with myself over it and it wasn't a great idea. I felt myself writing into a wall on it, and it was just frankly frustrating me.

While there's potentially still a place for Starry Night in the future (I do love Starry quite a bit), I found myself just drawn to wanting to potentially go back to a pony I have loved for literally forever (IT FEELS LIKE FOREVER) and that is of course... Radiant Star.

That's right, I'm currently theorycrafting a new FoE story with Radiant Star and Violet Iris. :)

I can't say yet when it will first show up here, but I'm hoping soon. I really just started poking at the idea with a synopsis and an outline, and suffice to say, this one will even more deeply dive into the past (because Star's adventures have always been really about that) and I'm hopeful that part is fun and interesting.

I'm looking forward to getting it put out there for sure though.

Anyways, thanks to everyone for checking this out, and I'll see you kids on the flip side. :)

Oh damn, here we go again!

My only advice is, don't utterly invalidate radiant and company's HEA (happily ever after) just for the sake of making the new story 'work' , far too many authors fall into that trap

Welp, haven't been reading much ponyfic lately, but you may just be able to entice me!
