There's a small issue I've had for the longest time that I'm hoping any of you fine folks can help me with.

Hey, guys! I've got some great news- my semi-perennial panel 'Writing Pony Fanfiction: The Basics' made the cut and will be at Whinny City Pony Con this year: it's on April 5 at 8:30 pm! It'll be great to give the panel another showing at what I consider to be my 'home-town' convention! I really hope to see you all there- this time around I'm going to try my best to make the panel even more audience-friendly and interactive. If you see me there or during the convention, feel free to come up and
So, I have not been updating stuff for a while. I have been feeling pretty bad about that because of personal reasons, but I'm back to writing constantly again.
A Game of Kings Update
Today's lessons learned:
-When you stop somewhere, take your car keys with you, apparently kids be crimeing
-When joining a Zoom call on public renovations, put you one-eyed wonder weasel away. Anyone who wants to see it or experience you doing a single arm workout with no weight will ask.
It has been a while since I’ve done a set of recommended story reviews.
Unlike my usual review sets, in these, I am drawing from stories that I put on my recommended and highly recommended lists before I started reviewing stories.
Not your usual kind of blog, but a necessary one anyway.
I don't usually do signal boosts; there are many reasons for this, but mainly -- I understand that it's my responsibility to only give my followers what they asked for when they clicked the 'follow' button, and that usually only translates as my content. If you had wanted to read MrNumbers' blogs, you would follow him instead.
I am, for all intends and purposes, a walnut.
Like a walnut, I'm objectively delicious, and everybody wants a piece of me. I'm also full of nutrients, and I'm sorta shaped like a brain. The metaphor works in many levels. [1]
I wanted to call a friend, telling them about how I've been feeling pretty shitty lately. They didn't pick up, but I needed to do something to feel a bit better. That's when I finished my hooch. Half a juice bottle, to be exact. I started to feel the buzz, but it still didn't feel like enough. That's when I decided to call whiskey for help, too. And then I had three shots of vodka. You see, I come from a judgmental family, and that made me scared shitless of people's
With a pairing of these two for my Jinglemas story this year, it took quite the restraint to avoid making the obvious pun in the story*: a pun so obvious, the show put it in a Season 1 episode written before Berry Punch had even been designed as a background pony. Light spoilers below for the story, of course; read at your own discretion.
Sometimes, I get so bored that I drink. I'm saving the last of the whiskey for my love. I tried three seconds of tequila and it was pretty good. It didn't have the same effect as whiskey so I made myself a cosmopolitan. It tasted delicious! It still didn't give me the desired effect so I gave myself two seconds of tequila. That shit tastes so much better than whiskey. The only problem was that my insides burned when I sneezed. Here's the recipe for the
Hello, everyone!
I'm working on a State of the Horizon post, but in the meantime, a few quick con-related things:
Was this slotted for 1/3? Yes. Was it done at that time? Yes. Did I post it? No
These are the last five of my current roundup; two more are pending reviews and my reading list is full! But, I've received delightful feedback from authors, and absolutely want to keep doing this.
Remember, upvote and comment on stories you like; and leave an upvote on stories you read when you can overall! Downvote bombing is hell on this site.
As for the mane event...
I have had Pinkie Pie's Smile Song stuck in my head all day, and the worst part was that I couldn't sing along because I was at work, where there are other people...
I hope you all choke on it.

So, really, the Block has been slapping me around for the better part of a week now. I've gotten about a page worth of words out in the last five days, and those are spread over three or four fics. So...like...not a lot done. I'm trying to kick it, and last night it occurred to me to try a different creative outlet and I whipped out my sketchbook.
