I have decided to start a series giving some behind-the-scenes information. This first installment will focus on the Legion of Doom. Nothing in here will spoil anything that hasn't appeared in the story thus far (that is, up through Chapter XIII), and when discussing spoilers to the most recent two chapters, I'll put them in spoilers. I'll add any questions you guys have to the main post.

Today's topic is

I was legally obligated to write a Cuddles story that fit into Categorial Grant’s Cuddlefic Contest.

Ponies are for hugging, after all.

For someone who’s had a lifelong interest in trains, I sure haven’t posted all that many stories about ponies and trains, have I?

Really no excuse for it, but better late than never.

Westward! Sweetsong’s found a good car to ride, one that’s safe and secure. There’s only one little flaw in her plan; maybe she should have looked at that map in the station more carefully.

We’ll get to that title in a bit. Meanwhile, enjoy a pony picture, and then some cranberry facts!

Here it is, kids, an update to one of my less-popular anthologies. Also, an update to my Trotcon schedule is at the bottom.

I sorta had a plan for an election day fic. A coup, involving Luna.

Marching up to the white house, her saddlebags bulging with cans of soup ‘for her family,’ maybe some batponies.

Everybody loves batponies.

For those of you who like to wait until stories are finished before reading them, What Shy Did on Her Summer Vacation is now complete. What follow are my thoughts on it. Spoilers are most definitely present.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
Greetings and thank you for reading Sasha and clicking on these author's notes. I hope you liked my story. I enjoyed writing it. I have a fair few things to say about this one.

If this is the first Recovery Arc story of mine you've read, Congratulations! You don't need to read the rest of this rant; it will make little sense to you. For everyone else, let's go…

I left my husband today.

It felt like a long time coming. It's been a very hard day. We agreed to be friends, so I guess that's good. I'm just kind of trying to deal with this. It's hard, dealing with the death of a dreamscape you had for nearly nine years. I don't think I'm dealing with it very well, honestly. I'm just trying to get through it.

Pretty nuts, right? And they don't even suck!

Welp. Here we are. Nine years and nine seasons later, FiM has finally drawn the curtains. It's over. But I don't think that means we're over. Y'know, as in, "we're gonna keep this party going until the last man finally dies."

Will Gen 5 be as good? Maybe. Will it have as much impact as Friendship is Magic did? Doubt it. They'd need to pull out all the stops to make it as memorable as possible, and coming off FiM's coattails, that's a tall order to fill.

Way back in February, when I published The Trouble With Unicorns and followed it with The Trouble With Unicorns IV, a lot of readers were left wondering if there was TTWU 2 and 3. Which, admittedly, is a reasonable thing to wonder.

I’m proud to say that there is! Er, there are.

So I'm gonna do the words and try for a new high-score. It won't be all towards a single project, that's not how I roll, but it will be going towards my on-going projects here on Fimfic and some things I've had in the works for a hot minute.

Like many authors, I tend to be drowning in ideas. Notes, snippets, story outlines. Far too many to do anything with, or that I feel I can do justice. Thankfully there's excellent people like Silver Notes out there who can take these bare bones (in this case "What if Wallflower found the Pony of Shadows instead of the Memory Stone") and put flesh on them in

If I say I'm sorry... will you please not lynch me?

*Stares at mob of pitch fork and torch wielders.* Right. Didn't think so.

I was listening to the Note to Self podcast and they had the head creator of Black Mirror on to do an interview, and he said the most extraordinary thing about social media that I have to share.

(And so you know, when I say "social media," I include FimFiction in that as well)

This story is the end of an era.

Written for the 100th Quills and Sofas speedwriting event!

I didn’t even make it in the top three, but I don’t feel bad about that. There was a lot of strong competition.
