Hello readers! Welcome back to another installment of Being a Better Writer, coming to you all on the first day of November, just ahead of the Mariah Carey storm.

You know the one I’m talking about. It nears, even now. Some have already fallen prey to it.

We conclude the comic catchup with the main line and the last two issues of the Milkyway Incident. When last we left the royal sisters, they’d dragged both Pipp’s reputation and the palace through mud. (Well, the mud went through the palace.) Let’s see how this gets cleaned up.

So, uh, hello everyone. It's been a while.

I did legitimately forget I had this account, but on account of literally everything going on in my life right now, I've forgotten that I have a lot of accounts on various websites. However, that's neither here nor there.

please stop

So I was looking at my Google Docs list, and I realized I had a half-written chapter for a new story based off of Starbound. For the uninitiated, Starbound is a 2D space exploration game set in a large procedurally generated universe. It recently left Early Access on Steam, and has eaten up my time. So much so, that I've now put more time into it than Terraria, a 2D more survival-ish game. So you may be asking, "Gee, doesn't that sound like another space exploration game that just released?"

the atmosphere of the cave is dark and oppressive, the air is heavy and your breathing erratic. The sound of soft moaning somewhere deep within the twisting cave system sets your hair on end. Your nerves fray each time you hear it, the soft sound seemingly getting louder... closer. It sounds... human. It sounds pained, agonizingly slow and dreadful.

I prefer this version so very much. Instead of Twilight just singing a generic Disney Princess song, this version builds up the parallels between Sunset and Twilight and shows how both of them are feeling about how out of place they feel. While this is a subplot for Sunset that doesn't gel with the rest of the film, it serves to expand on the plot and characters and move them along better than the final version does, which is what all songs in a musical medium should do.

This week, we have Rarity faced with a seemingly irreconcilable dilemma between her artistic desires and economic realities that threatens to crush her dreams.

Why does this sound so familiar?

A mysterious hooded figure is seen on campus holding an electronic device with antenna making strange noises. What is she up to? A night-time statue cleaner? A magical portal maintenance maintainer? A gardener?

I'm sure you're all aware of my... Disdain towards the recent Equestria Girls film: Friendship Games. And that I made a promise to never write a fic that references those events or any of the characters. Meaning human Twilight isn't much of a thing, and none of the Crystal Prep characters exist either... Well... I may or may not enjoy a couple choice characters. More specifically Sugarcoat and Sour Sweet... or Sweet Sour, whatever the broad's name is. The point is I'm lifting that rule, but for

I killed Toriel.

I was seriously not prepared for this.

This week, it's that classic mainstay of mid-century comedy, the man in a dress. And you know what? I thought it worked. Not because it was a stallion in a dress, but... well read on to find out. It'll be in the thicker paragraphs.

So you know how there are some people who think it's weird that Sunset has no desire to go back to Equestria? Those people can now shut it.

Haha XD

Sup mah homis we got us a brand spankin new trailer from Sethie himself. Chek it on out!

Okay, yesterday I got the Gameloft game, you know the one. Man oh man, is it addictive! Now, I have a question for you. I'm feeling kinda lonely. Anyone else I know play the game?

Forget Sci Twi. Sunset Scientist is here!

Well, now I have a legitimate reason to hate Sugercoat, beyond just her hairstyle.

On a different note, have some sad:

The midseason hiatus has begun, and so I turn back the clock to the oldest episode I haven’t done yet in this, my 250th blog. As a reminder, everything else can be accessed from the FiCG index page, which is always available from my user page. Now, let’s get assertive
