No, I’m not being a parasite... I... I’m giving my son a signal boost!

BlueBook doesn’t have a lot of followers—five active I think—so if you kind folks could boost his read count by perusing his rather wordy blogs, you’ll get a pretty good idea of what went on in the Magical Land of Franklin County™

Yes, it’s official! I can do a panel at Galacon 2019! I’m so thrilled that I can finally share this news with my readers. This panel will be all about building a world for your story, and the title will be: ‘Wonders of World Building.’ I will show you the essential tips you need to create a solid, believable, and memorable world with which you can do as you please. Colonize it? Destroy it? Sure, it’s your story (although I would personally prefer option two). And of course,

We all know that 2018 was a sad and terrible year for the Brony Community. ToonkriticY2K exposed for being a pedofile with his only fanboy Performance Major (Shut up haters! Quit harassing me!) leaving the community earlier this year and a animator getting arrested for having 60,000 images of child pornography.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I do declare, this year of 2019 has been, in a word, a clusterfuck.

Why, might you ask? It's been another decade that was no better than the last, with all the usual kerfuffle you get in the media and as part of this contractual obligation of being a human on the Planet Earth in the overflowing stream of everyday idiocy, conflict and bigotry. As cynical as it sounds, it's not all bad.

So, I had a time this year.

Let's start at the beginning. I was in the middle of a gap year in my studies. Basically, I didn't finish a singular math prerequisite fast enough, so I had to wait a full year to get into courses that are only offered in the fall. Two semesters idle, not really moving forward in pursuit of my dream career. I wasn't in the best emotional place a year ago.

A common piece of writing advice is that to become a better writer, one should read a lot. There is truth to this, of course, depending on what one reads. Welcome back to my reading journal.

I chose this book to read because my library’s automated recommendations compared it with Catch-22; a book which I count among my all-time favorites. The comparison is apt in some ways, but not in others.

Hiya everypone!

Where has half the year gone?! I figured that finishing up university work would give me more time to write this year than in the last, but getting my new life set up and spending most of a couple months sick with either allergies or borderline-pneumonia has a habit of sapping up writing time or energy. I've started getting back to doing a little bit every day now, so hopefully that'll translate to actually finishing stuff!

Okay. The last blog was a spur of the moment event. This time, it's going to be a but more deliberate. It's also going to be mostly for my own benefit in continuing to express my emotions rather than falling back into the tendency to suppress them.

But not yet. That will come later.

Hello all! I submitted a story to this year's Jinglemas called "My Heart Won't Buy It". Plenty of other folks contributed to the event, so you should definitely head to the group folders to check them out.

The second half totally lives up to its hype. The jumpscares, blood, gore, and various forms of Pennywise proves that Stephen King is one of the pioneers of writing horror stories. Despite the length of 2 hours and 49 minutes, it's good to know that it stayed faithful to the novel. If you watched the first one, I highly recommend checking this out. Heads up though, there are lots of flashing lights that might affect those with epileptic seizures.

It's December 31, the final day of the calendar. Let's enjoy each and every moment as we bid farewell to the year 2019 and the 2010s before we move on to a brand new decade.

So here's the age old question: What are you doing New Year's Eve?

So, at Bronycon I finally met the guy who basically convinced me to turn The Iron Horse into a legit complex story and briefly edited it (and also did a panel with me, but I'll find that video later). We hung out, drank beer, and he sang this song from "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog."
