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:

Read It Later Reviews #86 – Bitter/Sweet, The Virgin Princess, Rusty Scissors, The Book of Might Have Beens, We’re Eggspecting! · 10:45pm May 21st, 2019

Howdy folks! It’s been a few weeks since I last did one of these. My last set of Read It Later reviews was published on May 8th, so it’s been almost two weeks since then!

Yes, 13 days. Only 13 days. It’s crazy though, because it feels like it’s been more than a year!

Read It Now Reviews #56 – Wait After Knocking, Adaptation, Hurricane’s Champron, Cruel Beauty, This Is Not An Adventure Clyde Story: A Story About Twilight Sparkle · 5:57am Sep 30th, 2015

Sorry for the dearth of reviews lately; I’ve been busy at work not revising Mistletrapped so I can get the last few chapters posted. Alas, it is very easy to let such a thing displace other things that are more easily achieved, but I’ve been trying to avoid doing easy things instead of buckling down and chewing on hard tasks.

But the release of several new stories by people I follow removed the option of putting this off any further.

Video Game Reviews #1 - The Talos Principle · 10:03am Jan 6th, 2016

I have written reviews of video games I have played for a long time. I realized that it was kind of silly that I only ever posted them on Steam and Metacritic, and not here. So I thought I'd start out with something of a doozy - The Talos Principle, a game which was widely regarded as the game of the year of 2014 (and not just because the cover art has a robot petting a kitten).

Read It Now Reviews #105 – Comma Comma, Princess Cadance’s Official Princess Harem of Imported Humans from Another World, The Road Goes On Forever, Paper Butterflies, Tricks of the Trade Show · 11:58pm Mar 15th, 2017

Yesterday, I said I’d maybe take a break from recent story reviews to work on my own stuff.

Then my feed exploded with stories.

You monsters. It’s almost like you want me to keep reading!

But for all your work, I am grateful – today was a very good day for pony fiction.

The season 5 finale train never ends, with three more stories tied closely to The Cutie Re-mark, along with a story that was recently featured and an excellent story which won second place in the November write-off that all of you should read.

Which is which? You’ll have to read the reviews to know.

Read It Later Reviews #21 – Forever and Again, Where the Heart Is, Happily Ever After, The Day of the Million Billion Octavias, Swan Lake · 6:19pm Jul 17th, 2015

Apologies for my laxity in posting this week; I spent a great deal of time twisting myself in knots over what to work on next, and thus ended up not accomplishing much of anything until yesterday, when I simply decided to go ahead with whatever struck me next.

Consequently, I polished up and published a writeoff story:

Read It Later Reviews #66 – On Forensic Accounting & Choral Singing, Friendship is Physics, Sunny Skies All Day Long, Hyperportentia, Not In Bluff Nor Bravado Nor Loneliness · 1:27pm Jan 31st, 2017

The funny thing about procrastination is that sometimes it ends up wrapping back around into productivity.

It’d be nice if I could be productive in the directions that I aimed, but at least I’m getting something done.

Today includes a few stories from the RCL, as well as a couple stories that I previously read that didn’t quite merit a recommendation, along with a final story – one that I’ve put off reading since the Outside Insight contest all the way back in 2014.

Read It Now Reviews #77 – Displacement, Surrogate, Completely Safe in the Reference Section, The Hays Code, When the Moth Loved the Flame · 9:58pm May 11th, 2016

Two days until the start of Everfree Northwest, but I leave for the Emerald City tomorrow. If any of you are going to be there and want to meet up, send me a PM and I’ll give you some contact information; I don’t have a smart phone, so the most reliable way of contacting me while I’m wandering around the convention is likely to be an actual, honest-to-god phone call.

I know, shocking.

Read It Now Reviews #5 – Misunderstanding, Wassail, Wassail!, Dr. Spinning Top – Specimen Annotated Daily Schedule, Everchanging, Rainbow Dash Digs Herself Into a Hole · 5:49am Jan 7th, 2015

I’m just about done reading the stories for the last Writeoff competition, but in the meanwhile, I thought I’d throw another batch of new stories at you folks, especially in the light of commenting to someone else about how this helps improve feature box quality. You know how much power we reviewers wield!

Not very much.

Still, some of these were indeed worth reading.

Read It Later Reviews #60 – Wonderful; Good For Nearly All Princess Labor, Public And Private; I Have a Hat; Silver Spanner, Journeymare; This Platinum Cape · 12:01am Nov 7th, 2016

Do you know that feeling when you know that you’re holding yourself back, know that you aren’t doing the things you most want to do, know that you’re spending your time on lesser things when you can be spending them on greater ones?

I do. I feel a strange sort of avoidance at times at delving into certain experiences. I would like to say it is fear of disappointment, but it isn’t; I don’t fear disappointment. I simply feel avoidant towards some things for no good reason.
