Points of Canon: S6x06 - No Second Prances · 6:26pm Apr 30th, 2016

We return today with our regular dose of canon combing, investigating notable worldbuilding statements in “No Second Prances.” Which is an episode featuring Trixie, who has quite a bit of secondary canon to joss…

Good thing it’s mostly the bits of secondary canon I don’t like.

Worldbuilding R2: Names · 3:21am Aug 6th, 2017

Boy, it's been a while since I've written a worldbuilding blog post. And this one's gonna be kind of short--there are a couple of possible resources that you might find helpful, and down at the bottom, there's also an update to Science II. I'll mark that somehow so you can skip it if you heeded the warning on Science II.

Children's Hospital Parkway Run & Walk event · 10:49am Sep 15th, 2018

I'm participating in the CHOP (Children's Hospital of Philadelphia) fundraising run & walk on Sunday, Sept 30.

I've set a modest goal of $100 to raise since it's my first run in a while and already rather close to the event.

Here's my personal page: https://chop.donordrive.com/participant/Charles-deCharleroy

Research proposal, free to a good home: The Structure of Derpibooru [plus Publiq Publishing Plans] · 3:22am Jul 20th, 2022

The Structure of Derpibooru?

After attending Bad Horse's excellent talk on The Structure of Fimfiction at Trot Con last Friday evening, one of the questions was "why not do the same analysis but for Derpibooru?"

Let's start with

Literature Review

Or, put another way, a comparison of the relevant site features between Fimfiction & Derpi and would affect the social structure of the two sites.

Aargh!!! · 5:24pm Feb 13th, 2016

I'm over here, trying to draw Shimmer's hair. I look up her front view and I see tons of diaper fetishes, r34, and some nerdy OC dude in romantic scenarios with Shimmer...

Like seriously,

Being a Better Writer: You Can’t Make Up Rules When the Reader Knows What They Are · 8:01pm Jun 3rd, 2019

Welcome back readers! It’s JUNE!

Right, I know. Hunter/Hunted isn’t out yet. But I’d plan on it this month. Editing is … well, it’s a process. Both it and Jungle are inching closer toward release … But that’s all that needs to be said there. Right now?

CHOP Parkway Run fundraising update! 60% there! · 5:23pm Sep 18th, 2018

Thanks to anyone who's donated already. I'm more than halfway to my goal!

I'll see if I can bring my little video camera to record some of my run, though I suspect it's going to be tricky to hold onto. I do need to get one of those little Go-Pro things I can glue to my face or whatever eventually, especially when I start up my bike-a-thon again next year.

Anyway, here's a repeat of the info:

Now I Get It! · 7:46pm Jul 11th, 2015

There's a science behind a successful story here on FimFiction! Let me explain.

So, I've noticed time and time again that people are very particular about what stories they read and when they actually read them. I've also noticed that this site becomes more active around 12:00 all the way till 8:00 or 9:00 PM American Western time. During 8:00 and 9:00 PM, the site's usual users are logging off and are done for the day. They're tired, but those are the American users.

A Break to Discuss Visual Novels · 5:49am Feb 6th, 2016

Yes, this is mostly an excuse to discuss a visual novel I recently played, but partly to dissect it as research. See, I've wanted to make my own visual novel for a while (probably for free or under $5, because it'd be more for fun than for a profit motive). I really like reading/playing visual novels, and I like experimenting with my writing, so writing my own visual novel seems like a natural progression of these two things. I have a few artist friends and a couple of people I could probably

How are you guys doing? · 7:34pm May 15th, 2019

I'm finishing up school for the year- I've got an exam Friday and then I start my summer research block, which should give me a lot more time for writing!

I want to ask, though- how are all my favorite poners on fimfiction doing? Comment below and let's chat!

Being a Better Writer: Historical Fiction · 11:30pm Jul 31st, 2018

Welcome back, readers! And sorry for the delay. Life … finds a way. That isn’t always to one’s benefit! This week is just looking crazy.

Which means it’s probably best if I dive right in, given my ticking clock today. So, historical fiction …

Being a Better Writer: Doing Good Research · 9:13pm Nov 16th, 2020

Hello again readers! I hope you’re well and healthy. Me? A little funky. Really tired. No other symptoms that—to my knowledge—line up with Covid-19, but I’m considering if I feel funky tomorrow calling and scheduling a test anyway, just to be on the save side. And if it isn’t going to bankrupt my bank account.
