The Lessons Hollywood Won’t Learn From the Halo TV Show · 9:05pm Jul 28th, 2022

Well, we’ve reached that point, now. The Halo TV show has run its course of a full season, the last episodes being in May, the public has had time to digest and deliberate, and now we see the trickle-down effect of how people refer to it in casual conversation.

Being a Better Writer: Haters · 6:55pm Sep 10th, 2018

The moment you create something worthwhile, someone out there in the world will start to hate you. I wish this wasn’t the truth. I wish I could say that people were always going to be rational and capable of thought, but that’s not how it is.

There, I’ve said it. This post has been a long-time coming (it was actually planned for the week after LTUE, but then that big bit of metal fell …) but today we’re finally getting to it. And the title pretty much sums it up.

Being a Better Writer: On Writing About Race · 10:40pm Apr 18th, 2016

Oh boy.

Yep, this post had to come at some point or another. Given the charged climate of “PC” these days (that’s “political correctness,” not “Personal Computer,” sadly) days, this topic is one that’s come up again and again in writing. Online, offline … just about everywhere.

Where Amazon Can Improve · 9:38pm Jun 9th, 2017

This post can also be found at my website, Unusual Things. Reading there helps rankings and the like!

Well this post has been a long time in coming.

No, seriously. We're currently on Topic List IX, right? This post was a considered topic back on topic list VIII. Or maybe it was VII. I only started keeping track of carry-over topics with list number IX.

Dream Reversal (Is this idea TOO controversial) · 12:55pm Apr 28th, 2021

Well, here's another early blog, before I leave to go to work. :rainbowlaugh:

So in a previous blog, I had mentioned writing a story based off of Dream Date with the genders swapped. So as I was working yesterday, I was contemplating the idea and I did come up with something... though it might be a bit... controversial.

Allow me to explain.

An Illustrative Lesson on the Importance of Stories · 7:04pm Aug 10th, 2022

I didn’t plan on making this post today, but then I saw the news and some social media from friends and family, hit a quick Google search because I was reminded of something … and well … Here we are. It’s definitely political in its own way, so far warning, but there’s a moral of its own by the end.

Insert Appropriate Hamilton Reference Here · 6:47am Feb 11th, 2017

So, I recently started listening to the Hamilton soundtrack. I know. I’m late to the game. :twilightsheepish: I’ve kind of been avoiding it due to the parental advisory sticker on the case. :unsuresweetie: I’m old enough to ignore it, but I avoid it on principal because I don’t like listening to people curse. The history buff in me finally decided to give it a chance, and I actually kind of liked it despite the cursing. :pinkiesmile: Honestly though, was all the cursing really

Just some Personal thoughts I had to get out. · 4:27am Jan 31st, 2018

Hey.....

So...second blog and it's another controversial subject(I didn't really intend to blog much unless something came up)....but i had to talk to some people about this....

Someone I looked up to recently proved he wasn't who I thought he was.

I don't wanna use names but...anyone who's familiar with the brony analysis community is probably aware of who I'm talking about.

Some Writers Are In Need Of Help · 11:06pm February 16th

Hey, so apparently, there's a big controversy going around the site at the moment. It seems it started with a little argument between two members, Blaze-sabre and Skywalker215, where Blaze-sabre joked that his stories were cut-and-paste of the show he crossed over with. Unfortunately, Skywalker215 took him seriously and reported the guy, Blaze-Sabre to a modulator. From what I gathered, the mod, Eldorado, agreed that Blaze plagiarized and revoked his entire series. Not only did the guy get a 24
