It is Nightmare Night again. The Dark Season has begun. I am sitting here at my computer and listen to this beautiful, horrific nightmare and let myself get swamped into the dark territory of a soulless underground place filled with spiderwebs and horrifying monsters that gather and lurk in the dark.

Another year, another entry for the Cozy Glow contest. I’ll continue supporting the contest as long as the group hosts it, but I know going in that I don’t write the kind of stories the judges are looking for. They want dark & edgy and I don’t really write anything that falls into that category.

One of their metrics is ‘how sharp are the teeth?’

Here we are once again folks. I bring to you all the marvelous work from a wonderful person. Damayanti. This commission ended up being a lot bigger and more ambitious than all of our works so far. And I hope it shows! Dama put in lot of effort and practice to get this one right, and I truly believe she did wonders with it.

I was away at a museum, and we forgot the poll until literally the last second. Cut us some slack, mate.

We're finished on the DiscordExe trilogy. Or, as it may come to be known, the Facebook hateboner story.

Yesterday I discussed some of my own success this past year as well as thanking a lot of the people who made 2015 a good first year here on FiMFiction. This time, I thought I'd discuss some of my favorite stories from my time here so far. You can already peruse my Favorites, true, and you can also see my list of Top 5 Recommendations, but I thought I'd go into a little more detail.

I was looking for a draft I started for an upcoming part of an anthology. 'Cause I was really worried I accidentally lost a typed draft from four-ish years ago. It turns out I never typed it. I have a partially written draft from '19 along with two complete short stories I'd forgotten about. One of them was quite good and needed some light editing. Since I had a complete story on my hands, I typed it up, and because it's so old and relatively insignificant here's another story. Four stories,

We now head into the present with Nickelodeon.

The stories behind the Nicktoons aired during the first decade of the brand - the one from Nick that was the beginning of the end for what TVTropes would dub the "All Animation is Disney" public prejudice. Included are video clips from the series as well as info on how to find them on home media.

We lost track of the day. Shut up.

The first shuffle's all tidily squared away. That was a hot mess.

It has been a particularly rough week for the Bugsydor. I won't bother you with the details (unless you ask me to, and my response would likely be in PM form), but I will give you a brief summary: The cops were at my place, I was neither a suspect nor a victim, some utterly unconnected things also sucked, and I was a nervous wreck for a few days as a result of all that. However, between the magic of friendship and the passing of time – along with a brief chat with a bishop – I'm feeling much

The multi-part sampler is finished. Thanks to all the recruits Sigma pulled in from Rage Reviews; this was a very strong riff overall. And for those too impatient to read to the end and figure out the verdict: "A Displaced Monster" won the editor vote and will be filling our 8th-of-the-month slot. Good job, assholes, you stuck yourselves with Displaced Slenderwoman bullshit.

First off, here's the holiday one. I hope it was a gross one for you.

I always feel as though I waste far too much of my time on frivolous things – primarily, watching the news. I think, this weekend, I will try to avoid the news – try to avoid stupid, frivolous, wasteful things, and actually try and do things that make me feel good in the long term, instead of fritter away my time.

We’ll see if I can succeed.

Today’s stories:

This week has seen a massive amount of news about upcoming (or freshly released) official MLP: FiM content, with previews! Which means there is lots to analyze right now and I will cover all of it in three separate blog entries! Here is Part 1, about the "Rainbow Roadtrip" Special:

Holy SHIT you guys did a lot to "A Demons Love." I'm surprised this many of you trudged through for as long as you did. Fucking TROOPERS.

Well, your diligence is being rewarded tonight. We've come to the end of "A Displaced Monster" at last. Soak this up while you can.

So, now we know Scootaloo's parents. After years of theorizing that Scootaloo is an orphan until Lauren Faust said she has parents in 2016 and after a few more years of theorizing why her parents are never around, we have finally seen them. And, wow, do I hate them!

A couple weeks ago, Prak invited me to join The Royal Guard, a group whose purpose is to highlight good stories on the site, but which has not made a site post in quite some time. They were being reorganized, and Prak was looking for people with reviewing experience to drag onto the team.

Naturally, I got drafted.
