A year has passed since I finally finished This Can't Be Happening. Quite a lot has happened since then for me and as I predicted the end of that story didn't come with much fanfare, but it was at least a huge load off and satisfying feeling to finish it after all that time. That's left me with Don't Go To Sleep, the other story abandoned by my lazy update schedule. Back when I finished TCBH I put out the idea of either continuing the story as it was, or rebooting it entirely in an attempt to

My new avatar is by Pokefound, if anyone cares. You can search for artist:pokefound on Derpibooru to find it, but be aware that the full image contains necrophilia and gore. Poor Mercury Shine... again.

I loved the old one by Glitter Unicorn, but apparently technically having blood in an avatar can be against the rules, and I don't want to risk being considered naughty.

You probably noticed that I've done a lot of planning on my Fallout fic lately and not much new content for Polyamory. I just wanted to let you guys know that that isn't because I'm not interested in doing this now. Most of the work on my Fallout fic I'm doing during breaks or slow times at work, but I'm afraid to work on my more erotic stuff at work for fear that someone will walk up behind me at my desk and look over my shoulder. People are nosy.

I'm envisioning this chapter being the BIGGEST out of the bunch. No matter what, there's just so much to cover with this one that it requires just that many words.

I should probably do a piece on the show’s impact on my life at some point; all the cool kids are doing one. For right now, though, I’m playing with the new data available. Here are some discarded ideas for why Spike isn’t available in an upcoming story, tentatively titled Momento Morerunt.

Welcome to yet another episode of tales from the cutting room floor!

This time, we have a physical altercation between Firefly and Skywind. The bulk of the source material is too rough to publish, but the idea of the scene has been around since the story's inception. It was originally supposed to be a climactic confrontation between the two where Skywind finally lets his true colors show and Firefly finally gets some catharsis by beating the shit out of him.

My thanks to everyone who chimed in on how not to make a cup of tea. The fruit of your efforts is now imbibable. But before you do, have a sample of what I couldn't fit into either the description or the story itself. Consider it a sort of teaser trailer:

Recently, Serketry introduced me to the Ponyville Mysteries novel series (I had already read the -confusingly- similarly-named comics), and we both concluded that the Peryton Panic novel was an excellent candidate for an EC story. We decided to make it more of a "side" story with less of a focus on the Mane Six and episode-critical events; and more of a focus on OCs going on an adventure that, while still dangerous, wasn't balancing the fate of the world or even especially

To Serve In Hell generated over 20,000 words of cut content, representing more than a fifth of its final length. Not all of it is fit for presentation. However, a few bits still strike me as memorable or interesting, and I'd like to take a moment to share a couple of them.

There are spoilers ahead... but at this point I figure most people who are going to read Hell have already done so. For anyone else, maybe this'll spark some interest?

So after some review, I've deleted two chapter outlines and... the main villain.

I know, I know. What story would be complete without a villain? The answer is: this one.

So, as of recently I have started helping my uncle with his mayoral campaign, and it basically is a ton of work. I am still figuring out what this is going to mean for my ability to get things written, but I have some more news. Joker's Wild, chapter 3 is almost fully written. I know I said it was going to be shorter, but apparently I am a terrible dishonest lying scumbag, because it is currently at 19k, and I have 2 more scenes to write in, and one scene to rewrite. Anyway, after that, it will

Hello, all! TheIdiot here once again to provide you, the readers and watchers, an update on what's going on. In this case, I bring with me a small statement in regards to Jed R's recent work but also to say that Chapter 8 is still ongoing but has been difficult due to many factors. I am very greatful that you have been patient with us, all that we ask is that you continue to be patient as we sort out our difficulties.

I know. "Again? Who cares! It's cut stuff from an old fic!"

I've realized something, though, as I've been gathering this up: I'm doing this for me. I'm laying something to rest. I'm letting go of a lingering sense of what might-have-been, which in its own way is a part of the story of what ended-up-being.

Maybe it's even the last part of the story.

As I mentioned last time: there's a mountain of cut content from To Serve In Hell, including some nuggets that I very much regretted having to take out. I've already shared a couple of those stronger moments with you, and discussed the thought process that lead to both adding and ultimately removing them.

While it may not look like much has been happening, this last month or so has seen some truly heroic efforts on the part of my coauthor Serketry to help me put the whole of the first half of My Little Pony: Friendship into some sort of coherent logical order. This has resulted in rearranging a fair number of episodes to avoid things like one potentially world-ending event happening right after another, and the development of actual arcs and multi-episode plots and season-wide themes and

Raven was shuffling the papers she had been assigned to reorganize in the school’s massive filing cabinet when she heard the rustle and swish of cloth coming down the hall to the main offices. She turned around—expecting to find a student or parent standing at the desk—and was confronted instead with the sight of Vice Principal Luna in a full Victorian-style dress complete with ruffled lace and corset. The VP was even wearing elbow length gloves and had some sort of dark colored tiara
