"It Feels Rapier than ever" -- Another Horrible Mistake To Avoid When Writing Romance · 11:18pm Feb 8th, 2016

Audio version by Imrix.

I’m not good at romance.

A guy once tried to choke me and then begged for sex, and that’s just the third most horrible confession I’ve gone through. A girl in my high school refused to go out with a guy unless he stabbed his own arm with three needles to show his love. One of my teachers had to go to the hospital on New Year’s because she got a champagne bottle stuck to her vagina.

A Plea For a Modest $15 Loan for Three Days · 10:58am Oct 1st, 2019

You'll notice I never ask for donations, always loans. That's probably my pride talking. As you know if you follow my blogs, my boss recently cut my hours from 36/week to 12/week, because I'm a whole-ass mess. Hopefully, if I perform well this week as I have the past few weeks, she'll bump me at least partway back up, but in the meantime, I'm broke as a joke. Forget CiderFest, I need to finish paying what is now last month's rent. Actually, I have, at least the rent itself. The $50 late fee is

a few ramblings, a thank-you, and some other things I suppose · 6:28pm Aug 3rd, 2015

I'm on a train right now to meet a few guys from the 20 Great Stories Story Cabal (specifically, my off-and-on editor/prereader SpaceCommiehttp://www.fimfiction.net/user/SpaceCommie and fellow Cabal member and writer of brilliant fucking stories Sharp Spark). We're gonna head downtown, walk around a bit, possibly visit the Museum of Science and Industry (which

Fanart for 'Cyclosa' · 7:49pm Feb 8th, 2017

I made the surprising discovery the other day that Deviantart User 96paperkuts has published some amazing fanart for Cyclosa over on her Amino account. I've seen the artist's work over on Derpibooru rather often and I've always quite enjoyed her style, so having a scene from one of my stories done in it is obviously pretty flattering.

The Comedy (Is Serious Business) Contest! · 2:55pm Jan 2nd, 2018

Comedy is subjective.

—Someone with no taste.

If you folks know anything about me – and you do, as I have no idea what concepts like “privacy” or “shame” are – you know I like comedy. I keep writing comedy, I keep writing about comedy, and I’ve gone out of my way to make my life a total joke just to be thematically consistent.

With this in mind, and seeing how this website could always do with more good comedies, I’m happy to introduce—

'So Bad It's Good' Does Not Make It Good · 9:21pm Dec 5th, 2019

There's something I think I need to say...

So I hear a lot about how some people prefer films that are 'so bad it's good' over average or mediocre films.
So, for instance, people prefer Batman and Robin by Joel Schumacher to Batman VS Superman by Zack Snyder.
I mean, I see how this works. A film can certainly be entertainingly bad and gain more attention that way.

But then I hear how people wish films were made in the manner of 'So Bad It's Good'.
I'm sorry but...that doesn't work.

when it was ten days until bitchmas ice star gave to me an update blog w/ some important (probably!) shit · 2:02am Dec 16th, 2018

Gather 'round followers. I can't remember the last time I've made one of these, so it must have been a considerable amount of time since I last made an actual update blog, I've watched too many Kalvin Garrah videos and lost track of time, or both. Anyway, I thought I should say a few things. This includes the status of Enemy of Mine and its update, some important confusion I thought I should clear up, and just general things. Find them all below the horse image.

ARGH (or, Ice Star Explains his Uncharacteristic Silence) · 3:56am Jul 2nd, 2022

I know my existence on the site has been sporadic as fuck lately. For months I've been in lurk mode more than anything else, and this has been applying to a lot of my usual discord friend groups as well. I just wanted to let y'all know that I am (obviously) alive and that I haven't retired or quit my writing. However, a lot has gone on in my life and it is to blame for why all seems rather quiet on Ice Star's front. I'm not going to quit writing and I'd be glued to my keyboard (or at least the

A Very Simple Fact About Pinkie Pie that Nobody Seems to Have Realized · 10:51pm Nov 11th, 2016

Remember all those times that Pinkie Pie randomly referenced human culture with lazy pun names in the show? Remember that time she tried to hold an entire conversation with nothing but the most painfully obvious pop culture references? Remember all those times she was more cringingly self-aware than the Animaniacs on their worst days? What about that time where she just randomly stopped, looked around, and said "I'm in a cartoon show", "I think that's a little complex for the target audience",
