My 21 followers are getting something great today.

I don’t know, but you may have noticed that my favorites are a little different, I only favor the best of the best.

So, what constitutes the best of the best? Well, I’m here to organize my favorites from least to greatest, and how they’ve affected me and/or why they are my favorites.

Disclaimer: I will act like you have read some of these, just warning you. SPOILERS AHEAD!

Well, EFNW 2019 was a thing that I did. Even better, my wife came along with me to see what my excitement was all about. While on vacation, I spent a little of each day typing up my thoughts about the event. Why would I do that? This is important for me because this has only been my second con ever and I want to write about it. So, how did it go?

In 5 or so years of writing, Sugar and Spice is both the longest and probably the best story I've managed to finish so far. If nothing else, it's absolutely a story that has the most things I like about it, which is particularly weird given that it's just... not the sort of story I tend to write. Side-character, non-Princess romance? OCs? Comedy?!

I know. I must have fallen ill, or something.

Once again, it comes time to look at the resolutions I made at the beginning of the year, and see how well I did.

1) Get 150+ Followers... Not quite. 132 isn't too shabby, though. Thanks guys!
2) Get to a total of 300,000+ words written. Check!
3) Finish Days in the Mind of One that is Great and Powerful. Check!
4) Watch all Episodes of Season 9... Ehe... I kinda let that one get away from me...

Hey, everypony!! So I know my recent blogs have been me complaining about real life Math issues, but considering that doesn’t look like it’s going to get any better (Seriously, Professor Cotter said that Exam 3 is the hardest one, I’M DOOMED!!!!!!!!!!), I’m switching gears back to what I normally talk about in the meantime to avoid clinical depression. In this case, while I was getting some English homework done, I turned on My Little Pony: A New Generation for about the ninth
