Two years ago, I wrote Catch Us If You Can and entered it into Bicyclette’s inaugural M/M shipping contest, and when the results came out, I was met with some of the kindest things anybody has ever said about my writing. The quote that sticks out to me the most is this breath-catching claim from Bike themselves:
i did not expect to also get the best romance story i have yet to read on this website.
...assuming you want to see a 7DSJ preview and some of the new art I've done for Book IV.
Wow, I have let the Big Master Review List linger a bit long. I actually had to pause to remember how to spell Titanium once or twice. At least I've gotten to the point that the pile of bookmarks is short enough that I don't have to scroll through it.
Alright, first the most recent three posts from my main blog. All short'n'quick. I will summerize the already short intro bits with pithy one liners.
Just watched Season Six Episode 5 of game of thrones.......that fucking tore me apart, that was just....why, why the bloody hell did that have to take Hodor! I mean I get it, every season we get a character death which reminds us of the lesson we learned during the death of Ned Stark, that nobody is safe, especially the main characters, but did it really have to be fucking HODOR!!!!
Smaller doses don't lead to quite so much bizarre ideation, but they do lead to dreams in which my brain crossovers freely, including in this case a quick visit to Game of Pones Thrones.
Because with Canterlot Castle being as cantilevered off the side of the mountain as it is, of course Princess Luna has a Moon Door in her throne room.
Sometimes, I see or hear something, and I step away to think about it before responding.
This was one of those times.
Did... did I just see propaganda on FiMFiction that equated anti-fascism with Nazism?
Did I just see a pro-Master Race group, insisting that the “lesser races” in its stories (earth ponies and pegasi) be subjected to the torture and tyranny that their “inferior genes” deserve?
I’m still processing.
What. The. Hell.
100 reviews added to the Big Master Review List. Who knew five bucks could motivate so well? Also had someone ask where they could find the review of their story, and like always, my reaction is "You certainly came to the right place to ask that question!".
Here's the last few ponyfic review posts on my main blog:
Fun big master review list trivia! The word milkshake shows up twice in the list.
Milkshakes by punzil504
Futa Chrysalis and Twilight Sparkle Have Milkshakes: a story in the Futa Chrysalis and Twilight Sparkle series of adventures by Drakmire
Having only read one of them, I feel confident in saying that they are two very (very) different stories.
Alright, to start off I'd like to say that yes, I am alive, and yes, I am working on the next chapter of TEA (ha!) though as many other fan writers can tell you losing interest in a project can be real easy, and I assure you that while I did loose interest in writing, I do not intend to cancel the story.
Query is a good word. It's less forceful than question in my opinion. Just a open-ended request for information instead of demanding an answer. Why yes, I do occasionally ponder semantics to stall myself from copy/paste stuff I'm uncertain about posting.
look u guys, it's me when i look at all of u

Do you remember a particular episode of Codename: Kids Next Door? What do you think is the 4th ice cream flavour?
Twilight burst through the door, panting heavily. "SPIKE!" She yelled, her voice echoing all around the halls. "I NEED YOU TO FIND ME SOMETHING TO DO NOW!"
I'm continuing to chip away at the backlog for the Big Master Review List, thanks to iisaw's generous money contribution to my motivation. I've also decided to get rid of my backlog of pony fan fiction I have read by going to the logical extreme of my review trends lately. So over on the main blog I've put up a full dozen one-line reviews (more or less) of all the ponyfics lingering on my kindle after I read them. You'll probably want to at least look at each story's description to have any
Happy New Year everyone.
I just realised that The Brightest and the Best hit the feature box one year to the day since I last achieved that with Rock Farms and Nuclear Reactors. I wonder if I can do it again on 20 December 2015?
Got my Xenoblade Chronicles X copy the other day, so I'm pretty much set for the hiatus. You guys?
If you don't have anything else to do, see what's behind the door break.
