It's time again for Bronycon, and this year I'm glad to be a part of it. It's always fun to get together with my fellow fans and geeks of all flavors, and last year's Bronycon was one one of my favorites. I expect I'll be spending most of the con in the Stabletop Games room, as it most suits my interests; I'm afraid I've never been much for panels. As it so happens, I'll also be running a game this time 'round: Don't Rest Your Hooves. It's just about my favorite pony-based

Just a heads-up to anyone near Pittsburgh that the yearly screenwriters' conference starts tomorrow. It snuck up on me, but I'm going. It's in a different location, which is hidden on the webpage, and not on the directions page: 201 Wood St., Pittsburgh, PA. I think it's $120 for students. A great deal. I doubt they'll do it again next year; it appears on the website that very few people registered.

Yeah, I'm not dead. I know I haven't posted much here in Fimfiction, but that's mostly because of work and a lack of inspiration.

Still, this coming weekend, I'll be in Baltimore again for Bronycon. If you happen to be in the same area, I hope I can meet you and I hope we all have a grand time. This year, I'm only on one panel, but I think it will be a fun one. The details are:

Role Play Your Way
Hall of Planets - 4PM Saturday

Forgive me if I ramble a bit here.

is the last BronyCon.

You all are going, right?

Right?

In my last blog, I briefly mentioned that it had struck me how alien some of the BronyCon experience was to me in the UK. A couple of people said they'd be interested to see me expand on that, so here goes! Comments, quibbles, questions etc very welcome.

Hey, for those who still want to support me financially in my tough times and read 20K words of my original short fiction, today is your LAST CHANCE to subscribe to Monthly Musings for July's edition. The theme this time around is is "Real Nightmares," and the stories are... distressing. Read at your own risk kinda distressing, not the gross weird kind. You've been warned...

Actually, in this case, it's more that I'm so disorganized in my house that I can't find the specific Magic cards to go netdeck. That, and I left it for the last minute. Cuz that's how I roll. Apparently quite badly.

I will be attending Bronycon for the 5th year in a row next week. Will anyone else be there? If so, I would like to meet with you all face to face.

Good Evening,

(Post stolen mostly from RBDash47's blog post with some edits) If you're going to Bronycon and you plan on buying one of the books available at the bookstore, please take a moment to fill out this survey. That will help all the authors who plan to make books available in Aquaman's Golden Oaks

While my last blog entry I just did not too long ago focused on a lot of negative things, I wanted to focus on some more positive things. My Story "Moon Eyed" was just supposed to be the name of Hex's intro story. Instead it's not blossoming into a full series that I intend to write out. I'll fully admit that I was inspired when I saw the FimFiction booth at Bronycon. I had no idea that fanfics could become physical copies of books that people would actually want to buy. That's my aim here. I

For the ten or so of my followers who don't know me personally, a friend of mine is hoping to attend BronyCon this year.
I suggested they make a GoFundMe to help out.
Here's their GoFundMe if you want to help out.

Thanks.

It is hard for me to believe, but is has been over 4 years since the last time I truly sat down and properly wrote anything. It is my personal thoughts that I have matured in that time, and I have hopefully learned much more about writing, despite not having much practice with it. With that said, I find it hard for me to continue my ongoing story "To Build a Bestiary" as things currently stand. However, recently, my life has finally settled down. I have left a job that I hated, and ate 2 years

LET ME KNOW IF YA GONNA COME TO THIS.

Another year, another Bronycon!  I've been going since at least 2013, which makes 6 Bronycons for me.

6 Bronycons.  Man. Has it been that long?  What have I accomplished in 6 years?

Other than writing pony stories and blog posts, not much.  There's a point during every convention where I begin to wonder: What am I doing here?  Shouldn't I be strangling my soul slowly with a 9-5 job to support a couple of kids?

As I've announced a long time ago, I am indeed making another appearance at Bronycon for the fourth straight year. This time, however, I will be attending as a panelist!

I am privileged enough to be on Pen Stroke's Sizing Fanfiction to the Idea panel on Friday from 10:30 to 11:30 in the evening. It should be a lot of fun, and I'd love to see you there. Besides Pen and myself, WandererD, ABagOVicodin, and Cyborg Samurai will also be there, so it should be a smashing event.

Morning folks!

Day two has begun. My schedule is as follows:

10:00 AM-3:00PM -- Quills and Sofas! Look for the floppy Twilight wearing a FIMFiction hat! (Sometime around noonish I'll be taking a trip down to the Merch hall and grabbing a snack)

3:00PM-5:15PM -- Two panels, [The Do's and Don'ts of Fanfiction] and [The Fic Goes Ever, Ever On].
