I dreamed there was no hiatus · 5:02am Jul 12th, 2015
Alas, it was but a dream. But at least we ended on the note of a good, if slightly rapid-feeling, episode. Spoilers after the break.

(well not too short because my parents won't let me)
This is what my hair currently looks like
I'll update u guys later!!!
Well. This is certainly a thing. Remember The Company We Keep? Y'know, that cheesy supernatural horror-comedy that I wrote with Cadance progressively going insane, but in style? And all the ghosts and stuff?
Just like Tomb of Magic it's finally gotten an updated and revised version, with some new dialogue and any errors - like continuity errors - fixed. Unlike TOM it didn't need any new scenes or anything, but there's about 2-4k* of words that weren't there before now.
guess what show i just started watching!!!!!!!
oh my gosh this show is so stupidly great i'm addicted
i think 12 year old me would be completely obsessed
It's a bit of a cliché to say it, but a lot can happen in a year.
I'm not going to get into most of what has happened, because it's boring. The big announcement is that I've moved home, back up to near my parents and the rest of my family, which means no more Birmingham (and no more cheap chocolate from the cadbury factory, alas).
So unless it's cover art for a fic, I don't normally go sharing the art I do here on this site...but I figured some of ya might recognize part of this one:
Unbeknownst to me, BronyWriter has long been a member of the Royal Guard. Yesterday, he jumped back in in a major way, and began reading stories left and right. I had to join in, as did a number of other folks, and between the lot of us we managed to process a whopping 15 stories in a single day, and put at least one decision (a consensus of at least two votes in the same direction are necessary to approve or disapprove of a story) on a bunch more.
Howdy folks!
With BronyCon in the rearview mirror, I’ve been feeling productive of late. While waiting on Thursday night for my roommates to arrive at the hotel, I started editing an old writeoff story of mine, and managed to finish it off and post it yesterday afternoon:
Hey, so I have a new story coming out This Saturday
It's a Sunset x Wallflower One-Shot that I've been wanting to do for a while now
So get hype
And if you're not aware
I have a fan discord server now!

So if you enjoy my works then come and check it out
Chat with me and fellow readers
Apropos
The success of Letting Things Get Out Of Hand was nice
But it seems to have overshadowed the story I posted just days beforehand
I reviewed more than 15 stories yesterday. Today is the second set; you can expect still another tomorrow.
Today’s stories:
There’s Something in the Woods by HoofBitingActionOverload
Totally Birth It by Zodiacspear
Earning Her Stripes by ocalhoun
Dear Princess Twilight, My Name is Spider Web, and I am a Changeling by Lise Eclair
The Bestest Thing in the World by Minds Eye
I'll spare you the wall of text by linking you a google doc that has said wall of text.

But basically it's unbelievable that after this whole year of being desensitized to this circus parade of a presidential election, this is what fucking sends me reeling. Unforgivable.
OKAY SO I FOUND THE PERFECT ART FOR AN OLD THING
To me that's kinda a big deal. Some of my stories are hard to find art for. Others get inspired by picture and are really fucking easy.
Fever Dreams was one of the few stories I had a harder time finding the right picture for. I always like the art to be relevant to the story in some way, because a) I like art b) I'm decently pretentious c) misleading art sucks and so forth.
Have you ever wanted to own an Ice Star book? Well, congrats! Now you can! At long last, twenty-two Ice Star stories are now in print. What stories might those be? Look no further than this blog. If you decide that you want my book, I'll PM you a link. I've decided to keep the access private. Here are the stories that you can buy:
HoofBitingActionOverload is going to be unpublishing all of his stories from FIMFiction in one week. As one of the best authors on the site, that's a pretty sad thing. You all should go read his stuff before he does it, because he's a really good writer.
I think I've mentioned in a recent blog that I've been working on a revision for Favorable Alignment, because I found some things (a short list of things, but still) that weren't up to par and really looked like they were in need of just... a once-over, of sorts. That story is by far my favorite of all my works, and I would like it to reflect that. Hence the revisions, when I have the time for them (and cramming in updates for Enemy of Mine because that is a thing, also). So far,
So, finally got around to watching the movie today. I won't lie, I was kinda worried I'd have wasted money on a dud film and end up cursing my fan devotion to the series, especially after hearing such mixed reception. But, like dropping into a boiling hot tub, once I was in, I was able to properly relax.
even ones you're not friends w anymore?
hate that feeling
there's also another friend but like
idek if we're still actually friends we barely talk and i was going through her old blog posts and found our old drama and that shit hurted
and it kinda
makes me wonder whether we were friends again in the first place
like the only people i still frequently talk to that i met here are my girlfriend, two of my exes, and like, one of my all time best friends
So, I haven't been doing the best at writing new material that doesn't suck, and I've lost two followers this week but I did update a good number of my numerous anthologies over the past three days, some of which had gone over two years since last being updated. Maybe someday I update some of my non-anthology stories too! Heh heh heh (muffled crying)
Collections I've updated since the 18th:
