    I've been invited to a podcast

    This blog is pretty easily summed up by the title. I've been invited to appear on a podcast, specifically The Barcast. They interview a variety of notable, or perhaps notorious, people from among the fandom and I'm their latest choice. I'd say they must be scraping the bottom of the barrel in that case, but I'm too flattered by the attention to say no. They are taking audience questions here (

    I won a contest and new chapter on the horizon.

    Hello, everyone. Sorry for the long silence, but I am still alive, believe it or not.

    New DF: Extra Stuff and still doing things!

    The title honestly says it all. I just published a new chapter of Dresden Fillies: Extra Stuff, which is the collection of odds and ends of Dresden/MLP crossover that doesn't quite fit into my main stories. In this case it's a story inspired by a reader comment 'What if Fluttershy picked up one of the Blackened Denarius?". My answer to that was so involved (over 13K words) that I considered

    Not dead yet, but not writing either

    So this is a blog post I should have done a while ago and I'm sorry for not saying something sooner. As it turns out, the final year of getting my doctorate is the most time-consuming thing I've ever done in my life. Between a full 40 hours a week fulfilling school requirements, having a part-time job on the side to continue living and maintaining the bare minimum of social interaction with

Looking for an editor · 5:18am Feb 20th, 2012

Hello, psychicscubadiver here. Unfortunately Silentcarto's busy at the moment so I'm short one editor. Is there anyone crazy enough out there to brave my unvarnished words? More seriously, it would be a big help if y'all got the word out since I'm not too sure how to go about looking for one myself.

I could help if you need it. I have loads of free time what with not having a job at the moment. I can read at an average speed between 500 words per minute and 800 words per minute with a max of 1300 words per minute. Any mistakes usually make me stop in my tracks so I should be able to spot any with relative ease. I also know how to "track changes" and Microsoft Word in the event you yourself would like to specifically see what edits I've made (should you chose me).

I've done it once or twice for some people, though I consider myself still a novice at it. If you're not afraid by that statement, I would be more than glad to lend a hand. Otherwise I can try, and see if I know anyone.

Best place to look for an editor is on Ponychan's Fic thread. You can brose to see which ones are free and do the best work.
Personally I consider myself a decent proofreader and practiced reviewer but when it comes to proper editing for polishing and refinement of prose I do not have the experience... yet.
